Webis Holdings said it intends to delist from London's AIM.
The group, which specializes in pool wagering and operates Californian horse-racing track WatchandWager Cal Expo, on Friday said it proposed to cancel its shares from trading, subject to shareholder approval.
The company reported $1.1 million in losses for the year that ended in May and performance hasn't improved in line with its expectations, it said. The board's strategy to seek potential buyers or commercial partners hasn't materialized.
The cancellation would reduce costs and protect shareholder value, managing director Ed Comins said. The move would also allow it to focus on growing its business in North America, it said.
