  云顶新加坡已成为最近受到中国经济放缓影响的亚太赌场。圣淘沙名胜世界的运营商二季度利润下降了32%美元,1.655亿新加坡元(约合1.33亿美元),尽管双方的酒店入住率和平均房价分别创下92%和432美元新高。集团的收入是3.6%美元7.022亿,而游戏的收入减少了3.7%美元,利润下降17% (5.623亿新加坡元,合3.11亿美元)。该公司声明中表示,“本季度将继续看到类似的较窄的税前利润率。”尽管如此,地区气象站似乎预报了中国贵宾带的紧缩高于同城对手-拉斯维加斯金沙集团的滨海湾金沙,游戏收入报告上个月下降7.5%。

  云顶新加坡股市今年以来下跌了15%,但公司通过发行证券筹集23亿美元坐拥大量资金。这使分析师们相信,云顶计划收购宾银-证明公司增加了在澳大利亚赌场经营的股权,由6月的10%,进一步推动至25%。云顶新加坡据说还考虑在蒙古、日本和韩国的机会。

  云顶集团更广泛的地看向亚洲以外。名胜世界在纽约渡槽赛道7月成为运营得最好的一个月,今年世界比米尼湾的巴哈马轨道开放。同时,公司还没有放弃在2011购买的14亩迈阿密市中心房地产增加一个赌场的希望。而佛罗里达州立法者已经证明不通过必要的立法。云顶试图循环运营。坦帕湾时报竞选财务记录报道genting-related公司为四月十一日和五月十六日之间新的工作和收入出资60.5万美元。政治行动委员会在佛罗里达州的选民请愿驱动器修改州宪法,允许赌场度假村建设。如果云顶可以得到8%的佛罗里达州的选民签名请愿,赌场的问题将在2014年进行投票选举。

  再言,云顶不是在佛罗里达州的唯一赌场商。星期五,棕榈滩邮报报道,拉斯维加斯金沙集团主席、共和党谢尔登阿德尔森-仅次于新加坡云顶的竞争对手赌场-在6月4日向佛罗里达州共和党捐出25万。

  Genting Singapore has become the latest Asia-Pacific casino outfit to fall prey to the economic slowdown in China. The Resorts World Sentosa operator’s second quarter profit fell 32% to S$165.5m (US$133m), despite both hotel occupancy and average room rates hitting record highs of 92% and S$432 respectively. Group revenue was off 3.6% to S$702.2m, while gaming revenue was down 3.7% to S$562.3m and earnings fell 17% to S$311m. The company issued a statement saying that it expects to “continue to see similar narrower EBITDA margins as in the current quarter.” Regardless, RWS appears to be weathering the tightening of Chinese VIP belts better than its crosstown rival, Las Vegas Sands’ Marina Bay Sands, which last month reported a 7.5% fall in gaming revenue.

  Genting Singapore stock has fallen 15% this year, but the company is sitting on a mountain of cash after raising S$2.3b through the issue of perpetual securities. All that scratch has convinced analysts that Genting is planning an acquisition binge - as evidenced by the company boosting its stake in Australian casino operator Echo Entertainment to just under 10% in June and applying to further boost that stake to 25%. Genting Singapore is reportedly also considering opportunities in Mongolia, Japan and South Korea.

  The broader Genting Group is also looking beyond Asia. The new Resorts World operation at New York’s Aqueduct racetrack just had its best month ever in July, and Resorts World Bimini Bay is on track to open in the Bahamas this year. Meanwhile, the company still hasn’t given up hope of adding a casino to the 14 acres of downtown Miami real estate it purchased in 2011. While Florida legislators have proved skittish about passing the necessary legislation, Genting appears to be attempting an end-around. Campaign finance records viewed by the Tampa Bay Times show Genting-related companies contributing $605k between April 11 and May 16 to New Jobs and Revenue for Florida - the political action committee behind a voter petition drive to amend the state constitution to permit resort casino construction. If Genting can get 8% of Florida’s voters to sign a petition, the casino question would go on the 2014 election ballot.

  Then again, Genting isn’t the only casino outfit throwing money around in Florida. On Friday, the Palm Beach Post reported that Las Vegas Sands chairman and GOP sugar daddy Sheldon Adelson - yes, the man behind Genting’s Singapore competitor also craves a Florida casino - gave the state Republican party $250k on June 4. The day after that check was issued, Adelson sent an additional $250k to Gov. Rick Scott’s ‘Let’s Get To Work’ political action committee. It must be rough being a politician, trying to gauge just how long you can string donors along in order to keep the campaign contributions flowing before they give up - or start giving to your opponents.
