Factors at Play
Owing to the coronavirus pandemic, the company temporarily closed operations in mid-March. This along with increased costs in maintenance, modification, sports betting, marketing initiatives and investment projects is likely to have weighed on the company’s earnings in first-quarter 2020. Notably decline in revenues from Room and Management is likely to reflect in the revenue results.
However, increased focus on gaming segments including slots, tables, sports and ancillary games along with food and beverage is likely to have driven the top line in the to-be-reported quarter.
