Star Vegas continued to outperform, delivering considerable growth across property-level EBITDA and net revenue. The operation also saw an improvement in daily visitation and a reduction in operating expenses, which is a testament to our turnaround strategy.
“The Cambodian Government’s successful tourism campaign resulted in improved visitation numbers at Star Vegas. Similar positive results were seen in Vietnam, with our Aristo operation reporting consistent visitation in line with the December Quarter. Meanwhile, Aristo maintained stable financial metrics and moderate improvements across revenue, property level EBITDA and operating expenses, highlighting the asset’s operational efficiency.
