Macau GGR growth to accelerate in March: analysts

Macau GGR growth to accelerate in March: analysts

Several analysts forecast the rate of year-on-year growth for Macau’s March casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) will accelerate compared to February, when it expanded at a modest 5.7 percent year-on-year.

February’s tally was MOP24.30 billion (US$3.01 billion), according to figures from the local regulator, the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, issued on Thursday.

In a note the same day, brokerage Deutsche Bank Securities Inc estimated March GGR market-wide would be up 17 percent year-on-year.

“If we were to assume a 6 percent sequential decline from the January and February aggregate win per day, for the 31 days in March, it would imply growth of approximately 17.3 percent year-on-year for the month” wrote analysts Carlo Santarelli and Danny Valoy in the Thursday note. They have also raised their forecast for Macau’s GGR growth for the first quarter and the whole year of 2018 to 18.8 percent and 12 percent respectively.

The Deutsche Bank team added: “Post the holiday season and the National People’s Congress [of China], we believe March is poised for strength, with five full weekends in the month and the annual junket VIP dinners.” They were referring latterly to banquets given by Macau VIP gaming promoters – also known as junkets – for their top gamblers.

The first 2018 session of China’s legislative body, the National People’s Congress, is to start on March 5. The NPC meeting and that of an advisory body to the Chinese central government – the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference – are being held concurrently in Beijing from the beginning of March to mid of the month.

Brokerage Sanford C. Bernstein Ltd on Thursday said its preliminary growth estimate for Macau’s March GGR was 12 percent to 15 percent year-on-year. Japanese brokerage Nomura forecast March GGR to expand by between 13 percent and 18 percent year-on-year.

“Assuming the sequential lift in March GGR is in line with the trailing six-year median, or up around 1 percent month-on-month, our estimate for March GGR of MOP24-25 billion implies year-on-year growth of approximately 13 percent to 18 percent, or around 900 basis points higher than February’s 6 percent lift,” wrote Nomura analysts Harry C. Curtis, Daniel Adam and Brian H. Dobson in a Thursday note.

PokerStars' Player Scores £1.2 Million

What do you get when you combine Blueprint Gaming, their slot title Genie Jackpots and PokerStars Casino? We don't know if this particular individual was asking himself that same question before he opted to sit back in his chair and begin what he thought would be just an ordinary day in life.

However, it wasn't. It's not every day you win £1.2 million!

That’s exactly what happened for this player. A PokerStars' regular from Norway (this Scandinavian country seems to be a recurring theme with these stories, doesn’t it?) is now a millionaire, as of Tuesday, February 13th, when the grand progressive jackpot took place. Genie Jackpots uses Blueprint's Jackpot King progressive system – and that's only as of recently, when it was added to it.

The lucky player was caught off guard with this (who wouldn't be) and only commented that he now plans to use some of the winnings to attend future live events on PokerStars and to take the family on a summer holiday: “When the wheel stopped at the jackpot, I was for a split second sure that the software had frozen. But when the congratulations came up on the screen and the money suddenly was on my PokerStars account I could not really breathe or believe it. I was so happy.”

Blueprint Gaming's Managing Director, Matt Cole, took this opportunity to congratulate the winner: “Congratulations to the lucky player and what an amazing start to the year to win such a life-changing sum of money. Our Jackpot King series continues to offer highly immersive games and we have plans to add exciting new releases throughout 2018.”

You can watch and relive the moment of great fortune as it happened below:

Steve Wynn fall heightens risk for his casino biz: filing

Steve Wynn fall heightens risk for his casino biz: filing

Fallout from the sexual misconduct claims against casino operator Wynn Resorts Ltd’s former chief executive and chairman Steve Wynn (pictured) could include regulators ruling against the “suitability” of the group as stockholder of its regulated casino subsidiaries; and or lead regulators to rule against Mr Wynn’s suitability as a shareholder in the group.

So said the 2017 annual report of Wynn Resorts, filed on Wednesday in the United States.

Mr Wynn stepped down as the casino group’s chairman and chief executive on February 6. The move followed media reports detailing allegations of sexual misconduct made against him by former Wynn Resorts employees. Mr Wynn has denied the allegations.

The “controversy related to Mr Wynn and his separation from the company could significantly harm our business in numerous ways, including in ways that we cannot predict,” stated the annual report.

The report additionally stated: “Our business, reputation, and competitive position may now suffer as a result of our association with Mr Wynn, or as a result of his separation from the company and the loss of his skills and experience.”

The document noted that gaming regulators in the markets where it either currently operates or plans to do so, namely Macau, along with Nevada and Massachusetts in the U.S., had “extensive power to license and oversee the operations of our casino resorts and could take action against the company and its related licensees or Mr Wynn, including actions that could affect the ability or terms upon which our subsidiaries hold their gaming licences and concessions, the suitability of the company to continue as a stockholder of those subsidiaries, and/or the suitability of Mr Wynn to continue as a stockholder of the company.”

The annual report’s risk assessment also mentioned the possibility of a change of control regarding “certain Wynn Las Vegas LLC debt documents”.

It noted Mr Wynn’s ex-wife Elaine Wynn had ongoing litigation seeking to void a stockholders’ agreement to vote her stock with Mr Wynn.

This move “if successful, could increase the possibility of a change in control occurring for purposes of certain Wynn Las Vegas LLC debt documents,” noted the annual report.

On February 9, Wynn Resorts said it had been informed that Mr Wynn had declared a 2010 stockholders’ agreement “invalid” and agreed to give up control over his ex-wife’s shares of the company, given his resignation a few days earlier.

A February 9 filing by Wynn Resorts said Mr Wynn held as of that date 11.8 percent of the firm. According to previous company filings, Ms Wynn’s stake – at about 9.3 million shares – represents approximately a 9.4-percent interest in Wynn Resorts. Voted together, the shares of the ex-couple form a bigger block than any other single shareholder in the company.

Okada litigation

The 2017 annual report also mentioned the risk associated with ongoing litigation linked to Japanese gaming entrepreneur Kazuo Okada’s 2012 ejection from Wynn Resorts’ board after the casino firm claimed he was “unsuitable” and a risk to its licences.

The Wynn Resorts’ board had voted to cancel Mr Okada’s 20 percent stake in the group amounting to 24.5 million shares and issue him with a promissory note for US$1.9 billion. The note was in effect a 30 percent discount on the then US$2.77 billion valuation of his stake.

The Wynn Resorts 2017 annual report noted: “The Okada parties have challenged the redemption of [the] shares and we are currently involved in litigation with those parties as well as related stockholder derivative litigation.

The outcome of these various proceedings cannot be predicted. Any adverse judgments or settlements involving payment of a material sum of money could cause a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and could expose us to additional claims by third parties including current or former investors or regulators.”

Wynn Macau Ltd – the Macau subsidiary of Wynn Resorts – announced on February 6 Mr Wynn had resigned as chairman and CEO of the Macau operation with immediate effect. He also stepped down as director and officer of the unit’s subsidiaries, including Wynn Resorts (Macau) SA, the entity that holds the Wynn group’s Macau gaming concession.

The Hong Kong-listed company appointed Matt Maddox – formerly president – as its CEO, with Hong Kong-based entrepreneur Allan Zeman named non-executive chairman. Mr Maddox was also appointed CEO of the parent firm Wynn Resorts.

On January 29 the Macau regulator – the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, a body also known by its Portuguese acronym DICJ – met representatives from Wynn Macau Ltd “better to understand the situation” regarding the allegations against Mr Wynn.

The publication of the sexual misconduct claims led the Massachusetts Gaming Commission to open an investigation into Wynn Resorts. The Wynn group is currently developing a casino property in Boston, Massachusetts. The US$2.4-billion project is scheduled to open in 2019.

The Nevada regulator announced on January 30 it would launch a formal investigation into the allegations of sexual misconduct made against Mr Wynn.
