Its EBITDA was lower than the $405.4 million reported by Marina Bay Sands, Singapore&#8217;s only other casino owned by Las Vegas Sands , for the same period.\t <\/p>\n<p>Resorts World&#8217;s net revenue for the second quarter was S$716 million, 22 percent lower than the preceding quarter due to unfavourable win percentages for its premium players segment, Genting said. \t <\/p>\n<p>Singapore legalised casino gaming and allowed the building of two massive casino-resorts in 2005 as part of a plan to boost tourism. Genting&#8217;s $4.8 billion Resorts World on Sentosa island opened its doors in February last year, while the $5.5 billion Marina Bay Sands started two months later.  \t <\/p>\n<p>The Singapore casinos are the world&#8217;s second and third most expensive casino complexes after MGM&#8217;s CityCentre in Las Vegas, and their profits and profit margins are among the highest globally.\t <\/p>\n<p>Las Vegas Sands Corp swung to a net profit of $367.6 million in the second quarter, bolstered by improved business in Macau and Singapore, the world&#8217;s two most lucrative gambling markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bad Quarter as the players hit back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-178","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gaming","category-headlines"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
