Our United Kingdom (“UK”) business has performed well in spite of the uncertainties facing the UK economy. We also welcomed the maiden contribution from the operations of Resorts World Casino New York City (“RWNYC”). The Group’s revenue for 2011 was RM8.49 billion, an This has been one of the increase of 59% over RM5.33 billion in the previous year. The adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and most exciting periods in the amortisation (“adjusted EBITDA”) of RM2.33 billion reflects a year on year increase of 15% (2010: RM2.02 billion). The “ history of the Group.

Our strategy to leverage on our Asian clientele network to grow the premium players business at our London-based casinos has proven successful. The revenue and adjusted EBITDA for our United States (“US”) businesses are RM1.84 billion and RM37.0 million during the year.

Excluding the construction revenue and construction profit, the Group’s revenue and adjusted EBITDA would have increased by 27% and 14% respectively. The Group’s 2011 profit before tax of RM1.90 billion was 9.8% higher (2010: RM1.73 billion) primarily because of higher adjusted EBITDA and significantly lower impairment charges. This is offset by higher depreciation and amortisation charges of RM93.1 million mainly from our UK and US operations, as well as higher pre-operating expenses of RM56.3 million incurred for RWNYC and the master plan development in Miami. We also incurred property- related termination costs of RM39.4 million on purchase of properties in Miami. 2 I GENTING MALAYSIA BERHAD ANNUAL REPORT 2011 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT We are mindful of the need to conserve funds to take Due to the uncertain global economic climate, we are advantage of potential investment and expansion cautious on the outlook for the leisure and hospitality opportunities whilst recognising the importance of rewarding industry.

  • Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia
    Asian Social Science; Vol. 12, No. 3; 2016 ISSN 1911-2017 E-ISSN 1911-2025 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia Wan Sallha Yusoff1, Mohd Fairuz Md.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 8, 2015 Accepted: January 18, 2016 Online Published: February 23, 2016 doi:10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 Abstract This study investigates the relationships between financial hegemony groups, global diversification strategies and firm value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies listed in FTSE Bursa Malaysia Index Series during 2009 to 2012 period. We chose Malaysia as an ideal setting because the findings contribute to the phenomenon of the diversification–performance relationship in the Southeast Asian countries. We apply hegemony stability theory to explain the importance of financial hegemony groups in deciding international locations for operations. By using panel data analysis, we find that financial hegemony groups are significantly important in international location decisions. Results reveal that the stability of financial hegemony in BRICS and G7 groups enhances the financial value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies, whereas the stability of financial hegemony in ASEAN groups is able to enhance the non-financial value of the firms.
