Las Vegas Sands

The Marina Bay Singapore saw casino revenue more than double to $414 million in its first full quarter of operation, compared to the stub of 65 days ending in June. Room revenue was up almost four-fold and food and beverage revenue tripled.

Revenue at the Venetian Macao was up 26%; the Sands Macao saw a 2% rise in revenue; and the Four Seasons Macao more than doubled its revenue from the year-earlier period.

The Asian operations also saw impressive increases in profitability, with the Four Seasons Macao doubling profit as a percentage of revenue to 30%.

Even the firm’s properties in Las Vegas, The Venetian and the Palazzo, fared well, with just about every part of the business seeing year-over-year increases where they had declined in previous quarters. Net revenue was up 27%, and adjusted pre-tax property profit (Ebitda) rose to 20% of net revenue in Vegas, up from 15% a year earlier.

By contrast, in Q3 of last year, Vegas revenue fell year over year by 26%.

But while casino revenue was up just 17% in Vegas, retail revenue was the big change in Q3: it almost doubled from a year earlier.
