Genting Singapore net profit rockets 85% for FY2022

The increase in international tourists in Singapore is the cause behind the growth

Genting Singapore, the owner of Resorts World Sentosa, reported an 85% increase in their net profit for the full fiscal year (FY2022) ended 31 December 2022.

Their financial statements revealed that they earned $340m for FY2022 from $183m of the previous fiscal year (FY2021).

They also reported that their gaming-based revenue grew 53% to $1.23b from $805m, whilst their non-gaming revenue climbed 90% to $491m from $258m. They earned a total revenue of $1.73b, 62% more than $1.07b in FY2021.

The growth was due to the increase in international tourists arriving in Singapore after the country’s travel recovery gained momentum, especially during the second half of 2022.

On the other hand, the higher utility tariffs, increased casino tax rates, and accelerated depreciation of assets connected to the renovation of the Festive Hotel and their plan to expand Resorts World Sentosa affected the overall profit margin.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
