A filing by parent company <strong>Alliance Global Group<\/strong> shows that net gaming revenue fell 15 per cent year-on-year to PHP5bn (US$81.3m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company said promotional allowances were reduced by 23 per cent to PHP1.6bn (US$26m) during the period, reflecting tighter marketing spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Travellers International<\/strong>, a subsidiary of Alliance Global and developer of Newport World Resorts, recorded gross revenues of PHP8.6bn (US$139.7m) for the quarter, broadly stable against the prior period, while net revenues decline 9.2 per cent year-on-year to PHP7.0bn (US$113.8m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Non-gaming revenue rose 10 per cent year-on-year to PHP2.0bn (US$32.6m), supported by stronger hotel occupancy, higher average room rates, and improved retail and food-and-beverage spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group noted that improved cost efficiency supported financial stability, with operating expenses down 6 per cent year-on-year to PHP2.3bn (US$37.4m) and direct costs reduced by 5 per cent. These measures reduced margin pressure, although EBITDA declined to PHP1.7bn (US$27.6m) from PHP2.1bn (US$34.2m) a year earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the group level, Alliance Global reported consolidated revenue of PHP42.2bn (US$686.5m), up 1 per cent year-on-year on a normalised basis, while net income rose 6 per cent to PHP7.8bn (US$126.8m).
