Macau’s $45B in ’13 a New Record

A banner December helped boost Macau gross gaming revenue to MOP360.8 billion in 2013 (US$45.1 billion), an 18.6% increase over 2012 that is likely to equate to more than seven times the GGR generated on the Las Vegas Strip for the year.

The total set a new annual record for the Chinese casino enclave, beating the US$38 billion record set in 2012 with the help of a December that was the second-best month in the industry’s history, representing an 18.5% year-on-year increase to MOP33.5 billion ($4.2 billion) against a tough comparison in December 2012 (+19.6% over the previous year ) and despite having one fewer Saturday in the month.

Union Gaming Research Macau is forecasting 14% revenue growth across the board for 2014, based on a projected 10% increase in VIP revenue and 22% in mass market and slots.

“Based on numerous conversations we’ve had with casino operators over the past few weeks we find no reason to alter our bullish stance,” the investment firm said in a note to clients, citing, among other factors, a trend over the last couple of years pointing to “exceptionally strong” Christmas and New Year seasons.

“We would attribute much of this to increased mainland enjoyment/participation of the holiday season,” the firm said. “This should spill over into January and ultimately into the Chinese New Year holiday period that begins in late January.”
