Figures for Caesars Entertainment H1

In case of net revenue, Caesars Entertainment reported a 6% year-on-year growth for H1, taking their total to $4.34bn. This enhancement was credited to the solid performance the operator managed to generate in Las Vegas. 

The gambling firm also reported a rise in Q2 revenue by 5% to $2.22bn, with both the hotel and food & beverage verticals performing well for the operator. 

As for H2 net income, the statistics grew 25% to $509m, although they suffered a 5% fall to $269m for Q2. 

Despite this, net loss was $532m for H1, attributed to Caesars. This was up from $5m, with Q2 income falling from $29m in 2018 to $315m, due to derivative liability-related costs. 

Tony Rodio, Caesars Entertainment CEO, spoke out about the company’s future plans, attributing their focus on improving the operations and financial profile of the firm. This comes before their $17.3bn move for partnering up with Eldorado Resorts. 

Rodio commented the following:

“Caesars delivered solid financial results in the second quarter driven by the contribution from Centaur and strength from our Las Vegas hotel and food and beverage businesses.

“These results were partially offset by competitive pressures in Atlantic City and other parts of our regional portfolio, as well as unfavorable hold predominately at Caesars Palace.”
