The rise in GGR was mainly attributed to the Solaire Resort North.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Philippines.- Casino operator Bloomberry Resorts\u00a0has shared its\u00a0financial results\u00a0for the year 2024. It reported gross gaming revenue (GGR) of PHP61.7bn (US$1.08bn). That’s an increase of 6 per cent in year-on-year terms<\/a>. The growth was mainly due to the opening of Solaire Resort North (SN) for 221 days of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The casino operator reported net income of PHP2.6bn (US$45.9m), down 72.63 per cent\u00a0year-on-year. Consolidated net revenue was PHP53.1bn (US$930.6m), up 10 per cent, while non-gaming revenue was PHP10.7bn (US$187.3m), up 23 per cent year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consolidated EBITDA reached PHP16.6bn (US$290.5m), down 14 per cent. The decline was mostly due to lower EBITDA generated by Solaire Resort Entertainment City (SEC) and pre-operating expenses associated with SN, which were partially offset by its ramp-up. The mass market segment showed stronger performance than the VIP business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Non-gaming revenue was PHP8.3bn (US$145.2m), flat in year-on-year terms. Net revenue was PHP44.5bn (US$779.2m), down 7 per cent year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VIP GGR was down 22 per cent to PHP15.2bn (US$266m) while VIP rolling chip volume was PHP436.1bn (US$7.64bn), down 29 per cent<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeju Sun<\/strong>\u00a0saw GGR of PHP44m (US$770k), up 42 per cent year-on-year. Non-gaming revenue was PHP470m (US$8.2m), up 33 per cent year-on-year, while net revenue was PHP512.5m (US$9m), up 34 per cent. Jeju Sun generated LBITDA of PHP249m (US$4.4m), which compares to LBITDA of PHP238.3m in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the fourth quarter of 2024, the company reported a consolidated net revenue of PHP14.6bn (US$255.6m), up 22 per cent year-on-year. GGR was PHP16.2bn (US$283.6m), up 17 per cent year-on-year. EBITDA was PHP4bn (US$70m), up 1 per cent year-over-year. Consolidated net loss was PHP920.2m, compared to net income of PHP1.3bn (US$22.8m) in the fourth quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enrique K. Razon Junior<\/strong>,\u00a0<\/strong>Bloomberry chairman and CEO, said: “In 2024, we reported topline growth despite a challenging operating environment in Metro Manila. The newly opened Solaire Resort North contributed to our GGR strength as it vastly expanded our presence in the mass market segment. Our consolidated mass gaming revenue increased by 19 per cent, significantly outperforming the VIP segment and pushing consolidated GGR growth to 6 per cent. However, our EBITDA and profit for the year were lower as we recognized pre-operating, depreciation, and interest expenses for Solaire North while Solaire in Entertainment City grappled with VIP and premium mass market weakness.”<\/p>\n\n\n
