- Gaming revenue in 3Q24 deteriorated 14% q-o-q and merely represented 81% of pre-pandemic level (2Q24: 87%). This presumably reflects an exceptionally low-base VIP win percentage of 2.45% (3Q23: 3.19%/2Q24: 2.91%) and softer betting volume (gross gaming revenue: -10% q-o-q).
- Meanwhile, VIP GGR is estimated to have declined around 18% q-o-q, while mass GGR fell by 6% q-o-q.
Non-gaming segment, however, charted resilient improvement.
