Glonghui, April 16 | According to a UBS research report, various gambling stocks will announce their performance for the first quarter of 2024 this week, with Sands China “leading the way”. According to data from the Macau Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, overall Macau's total gaming revenue recorded MOP 57.3 billion, equivalent to 75% of the first quarter of 2019. It is expected that midfield gaming revenue will record 111% quarterly increase of 3% in the first quarter of 2019, while VIP club gaming revenue will rise 27% quarterly, which will cause the industry's profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to rise 2% quarterly. The report predicts that the Australian Expo recorded the best EBITDA growth in the industry due to the Macau Grand Lisboa Hotel. Next was MGM, which benefited from the continued rise in the market share of high-end midfielders in the first quarter. In addition, the bank will also reduce the market share of Saudi China and Galaxy Entertainment, while Wynn Macau and Macau International will remain stable. According to the report, the market will pay attention to comments and industry performance related to May 1st Golden Week to measure the sustainability of demand and profit margins.
