Macau Gaming 27 February 2017 Macau Gaming 27 February 2017 【 2017 outlook: Mass Market Continues To Be The Major Driver Investment Highlights: GGR resumes growth in 2016Q3: According to the DICJ figures, Macau’s gross revenue from Games of Fortune amounted to MOP 60,418million in 2016Q4, as compared to MOP 55,005million in 2016Q3, recording a 10.2% YoY growth in the quarterly GGR. Looking forward in 2017, we estimate Mass GGR, VIP GGR and EBITDA to grow by 13%, 6% and 14% respectively. The long-term prospects for the industry remain attractive, particularly for the Mass segment. Mass market to be the major engine: Mass market represents 47% of the GGR mix in FY2016, and we expect the mass market to further gain importance in the next five years. The strength will be underpinned by 1) increasing visitation to Macau; and 2) the upcoming projects in Cotai, including MGM Cotai and Grand Lisboa Palace. VIP may bottom out, but to be confirmed: The quarterly VIP GGR recorded a 12.7% CASH Research YoY growth in 2016 Q4, represent a strong and the first positive year- on- year [email protected] growth since 2014 Q2. However, with mixed factor such as anti-graft campaign and 27 Feb 2017 capital flow control in China, we remain cautious on the prospect of VIP gaming. It is Cynthia Tam worth noting that the 19th National Congress to be held in 2nd half of 2017 will set Tel: 852-2287-8466 the tone for the upcoming monetary and anti- corruption policy, which in turn have [email protected] a significant impact on Macau VIP gaming. Despite the recent trend signaling a possible turnaround, we would like some more time before calling it a definitive trend. Gaming Tax Reform has an influence on Macau competitiveness: Facing intense competition from casinos located in Asia, including Singapore, Philippines, Cambodia and Malaysia, there is a need for Macau to have a gaming tax reform to maintain its competitiveness. Gaming concessionaires are currently subject to a 39 percent tax, which is substantially higher than other countries. A potential tax cut will be an upside factor to the gaming industry. Consultation on tax reform will roll out before the present casino licenses are due for renewal between 2020 and 2022.

We believe its impact on Macau gaming industry is yet to come as it will take numbers of years until the first Japanese casino open doors. The future impact of Japanese casino on Macau gaming will depend on 1) how likely Japan's casinos to draw Chinese players, especially from North- Eastern area ; 2) the intensity of the anti- graft campaign; 3) the role of junkets in Japan. We believe the impact of Japan casinos on Macau will only take place later than 2021. We will update our analysis when necessary. 2017 EBITDA boosted by non- gaming revenue: In Macau’s Five- Year Development Plan, covering the period 2016- 2020, the government states that non-gaming revenue should account on average for at least 9 percent of all revenue generated by casino operators by 2020. With more projects open on Cotai, non- gaming segment will become a larger component of revenue. We forecast non- gaming revenue to grow at a CAGR of 14% for the industry from 2017E to 2020E. Galaxy and Wynn are our top picks: We remain positive on the mass gaming performance of Galaxy and Wynn. For Galaxy, the uptrend of Galaxy Macau™ and StarWorld Macau will continue. Meanwhile, we believe Wynn Palace will be a new value driver for Wynn. Galaxy (27.HK) and Wynn Macau (1128.HK) are our top picks.

GGR resumes growth in 2016 Q3, signaling industry recovery Going forward, we estimate Mass GGR, VIP GGR and EBITDA to grow by 13%, 6% and 14% respectively. The long-term prospects of the industry remain attractive, particularly for the Mass segment. According to DICJ’s figures, officially the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau of Macao, the gross revenue from Games of Fortune amounted to MOP60,418million in 2016Q4, as compared to MOP55,005million in 2016Q3, recording a 10.2% YoY growth in the quarterly GGR. Figure 1: Industry GGR up 10.2% YoY to MOP 60,418 mn in 2016Q4 Source: DICJ, CASH Research GGR to be fueled by mass market: In 2017, we expect mass GGR growth of 13%, higher than the 6% VIP GGR growth. There will be a continuous structural change of the Gaming industry by having VIP shift to Mass, to be explained by the challenging environment imposed by the China’s anti- graft campaign and the tightening monetary policy. Meanwhile, the mass market growth will be due to the improvement in infrastructure, ramp of the new projects and the increase in overnight visitation. We see the mass market to be the theme of the Macau gaming industry for the coming five years. Market players with strong mass GGR growth will outperform the industry and validate a higher valuation.

  • Regulating E-Cigarettes Regulating E-Cigarettes
    Regulating E-cigarettes Regulating E-Cigarettes The introduction of electronic cigarettes (or e-cigarettes) in countries around the world poses new challenges to governments wanting to protect youth and reduce tobacco use. Policies governing e-cigarettes must be guided by an assessment of the impact of these products on the pace of progress in reducing the death and disease caused by tobacco use. The evidence around the health harms from e-cigarettes and their impact on young people is evolving. Any assessment of the evidence has to consider the impact on both individual smokers and the population as a whole. While e-cigarettes may have health benefits to individual smokers if they are proven to help smokers quit completely, they are nevertheless harmful to public health if they lead to more young people starting, if they renormalize tobacco use, and/or if they discourage smokers from quitting. The World Health Organization has concluded that e-cigarettes are “undoubtedly harmful” and that countries “that have not banned [e-cigarettes] should consider regulating them as harmful products.” 1 This is consistent with the general obligations of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, which require Parties to the Convention to implement measures for preventing and reducing nicotine addiction. 2 In the absence of effective government regulation, e-cigarettes could create a new generation of nicotine and tobacco users and undermine the progress made in combatting the tobacco epidemic. This policy brief uses a three-step process to assist government officials in determining how to regulate e-cigarettes to fit their country circumstances while balancing competing public health considerations: 1.

    Response to Invited Reader 1 We are grateful for the comments of the anonymous reader. We response as follows. 1) COMMENT: "The paper can make more contributions to the field with a theoretical model. The casinos have at least four types of customers (smoking and non-smoking gamblers and non-gamblers).... The authors can think about the game theory approach to develop a solid theoretical foundation for the paper." Answer: Considering the suggestions of the anonymous reader, we have decided to include a theoretical model which we had developed in our earlier draft. The model analyzes the dominant strategy of a casino facing smoking bans. " The expected profits of the casinos The accounting profit of gaming product i can be calculated as follows: πi= pi * qi - ci (1) where pi refers to the price, qi refers to the demanded quantity, and ci refers to the typical operating cost of gaming product i. Since it is very difficult for a casino employee to provide sufficient evidence of damage to health due to working in the smoking work environment, the legal cost for second hand smoking health damage compensation claimed by casino employees is not yet a realistic threat to the casinos in Macao. Due to this consideration, we don’t include this type of cost in Equation (1). We consider a general linear differentiated product demand curve for gaming product i facing substitutes gaming product j as in Deneckere and Davidson (1985). (2) The impacts of a smoking ban enter the demand function through changing the value (V) that patrons are willing to attach to the gaming activities according to their smoking preferences.

  • Effectiveness of Interventions to Reduce Exposure to Parental Secondhand Smoke at Home Among Children in China: a Systematic Review
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Effectiveness of Interventions to Reduce Exposure to Parental Secondhand Smoke at Home among Children in China: A Systematic Review Yan Hua Zhou 1 , Yim Wah Mak 2,* and Grace W. K. Ho 2 1 School of Nursing, Zhejiang Chinese Medical University, Hangzhou 310051, China; [email protected] 2 School of Nursing, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong 999077, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-(852)-2766-6421 Received: 7 December 2018; Accepted: 28 December 2018; Published: 3 January 2019 Abstract: There are health consequences to exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS). About two-thirds of children in China live with at least one person, usually a parent, who smokes at home. However, none of the reviews of interventions for reducing SHS have targeted children in China. The purpose of this study was to review the effectiveness of interventions for reducing parental SHS exposure at home among children in China. We searched various electronic databases for English and Chinese publications appearing between 1997 and 2017. Thirteen relevant studies were identified. Common strategies used in intervention groups were non-pharmacological approaches such as counseling plus self-help materials, and attempting to persuade fathers to quit smoking. Family interactions and follow-up sessions providing counseling or using text messages could be helpful to successful quitting. Several encouraging results were observed, including lower cotinine levels in children (n = 2), reduced tobacco consumption (n = 5), and increased quit rates (n = 6) among parents.
