  • 1 Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment Announces First
    MOHEGAN GAMING & ENTERTAINMENT ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2020 OPERATING RESULTS Uncasville, Connecticut, February 6, 2020 – Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (“MGE” or the “Company”), a master developer and operator of premier global integrated entertainment resorts, including Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, Mohegan Sun Pocono in Plains Township, Pennsylvania, the MGE Niagara Resorts in Niagara Falls, Canada and INSPIRE Entertainment Resort in Incheon, South Korea, announced today operating results for its first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2019. “I am pleased to report that fiscal 2020 is off to a solid start with consolidated first-quarter revenues and Adjusted EBITDA above prior year results, driven by the strong year over year growth in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA at Mohegan Sun Pocono and the inclusion of MGE Niagara Resorts,” said Mario Kontomerkos, President & Chief Executive Officer of MGE. “Importantly, on a like for like basis, excluding the positive contribution of MGE Niagara Resorts, overall adjusted EBITDA was roughly flat with the prior year while overall Adjusted EBITDA margins improved, a remarkable achievement considering the competitive pressures in the northeast region over the last 18 months. Performance at our flagship property Mohegan Sun was strong due to better expense management and continued strong performance in non-gaming segments, highlighted by our recent hosting of the Miss America Competition. Looking beyond the United States, construction is progressing on-time and on-budget in Inspire Korea, while the integration of the MGE Niagara Resorts progresses well despite the impact of lower table hold rates and adverse weather in the quarter. Finally, our expansion into Las Vegas took a large step forward this week, as MGE and our partner Virgin Hotels began the renovation of the future Virgin Hotels Las Vegas set to open in late 2020.” Selected consolidated operating results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2019 and prior year period (unaudited): Net revenues of $399.1 million vs.

  • Atlantic City 2018 Casino Profits Still Lag Last Year
    Atlantic City 2018 casino profits still lag last year DAVID DANZIS Staff Writer ATLANTIC CITY — Casino operating profits and net revenue bounced back in the second quarter of 2018, but year-to-date numbers were all down through the first six months of the year. After seeing operating profits drop nearly 12 percent and net revenue dip 3 percent in the first quarter of 2018 compared to last year, the resort’s casino industry had increases in both areas for the year’s second quarter, according to a report released Wednesday by the state Division of Gaming Enforcement. The full effect of the late-June openings of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City and Ocean Resort Casino are not seen in Wednesday’s release, said Bob Ambrose, a professor of casino management at Fairleigh Dickinson University and a gaming consultant. “As the changes continue in Atlantic City, I want to see a true year-over-year analysis to judge the impact of the two new properties, as well as how collectively the industry in Atlantic City has met both citywide resort competition and the surrounding eastern region,” Ambrose said. Gross operating profits for Atlantic City’s casino industry in the second quarter, which includes April, May and June, were $171.4 million, an increase of 1.6 percent from the same quarter in 2017, when that figure was $168.7 million. For the first six months of 2018, gross operating profits were $294.5 million, a 4.6 percent decrease from the $308.6 million reported for the same period last year.
