Genting Singapore’s profit increases 29% in H1, led by strong gaming revenue

Gaming revenue rose 28% YoY to $957.6m.

The net profit of Genting Singapore rose 29% YoY to $356.9m in H1 2024, aligned with its revenue growth.

The company’s revenue in H1 2024 was $1.4b, 25% higher than the H1 2023 record of $1.1b.

By segment, revenue improved by 28% YoY to $957.6m for gaming and 19% YoY to $333.2m for non-gaming.

The Resorts World Sentosa owner, however, said that high transport and accommodation costs and geopolitical heads affected its growth, particularly in Q2.

In Q2, the company’s adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was weaker at $201.3m.

Genting Singapore attributed the decline to significantly lower VIP hold and the closure of the Hard Rock Hotel for renovations and rebranding.

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.
