it proved what i mentioned is right .... genting lose big in las vegas.
KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 24): Genting Bhd slipped into the red in the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2021 (4QFY21), posting a net loss of RM129.81 million — its fourth straight quarterly loss — compared to a net profit of RM24.98 million a year ago, on higher depreciation and net finance costs arising mainly from Resorts World Las Vegas’ commencement of operations.
The group's quarterly performance was also dragged down by the higher share of losses in joint ventures and associates, mainly due to a share of loss from the Meizhou Wan power plant in China as a result of higher coal costs despite better generation.
Bloomberg is reporting that MGM recently approached the Lim family to gauge interest in a deal and although no such agreement was reached, MGM “could resume its pursuit of the company.” The report suggests that other potential suitors are also studying Genting Singapore, which has traditionally been Genting Group’s most profitable entity since RWS – one of only two integrated resorts in Singapore alongside Marina Bay Sands – opened in 2010.
It was also one of the group’s few businesses to remain profitable through much of the COVID-19 pandemic, having most recently reported a 13% year-on-year increase in revenues to SG$315 million (US$225 million) and 17% increase in net profit to SG$40 million (US$29 million) in 1Q22.
Genting Singapore’s Malaysian-listed parent, Genting Berhad, owns 53% of the business.
RWS is profitable & not for sale. Operator using talk to PLAY w price After talk, side effect price up 1 - 2 days Just a 1 - 2 days affair ONLY, then drop After few days price DROP back. Maybe DROP MUCH MORE. US economy & finance leads stk mkts INFLATION, MORE RATE HIKES. Mkts & stks may still fall further. It's not even close to the bottom yet.
nicholas99 dont know accounting diam diam la higher depreciation do you know what is this means? if dont know go check youtube or google . depreciation no relate with business only for business NTA calculation
I agree nothing is forever Hopefully MGM bids really good price for this golden goose lo, like maybe capital return of RM5 for each Genting Berhad share? lol
If MGM pays SGD1 per share, means price is SGD12b Assuming Genting owns 50%, that would be worth SGD6b, or roughly MYR19b GB has about 3.9b issued shares, so about MYR4.85 per share lol Power of dreams
guess ideal situation wld be a joint branding with mgm with more dollars pumped into the Sg business, with a view to list RWLV. Next month look forward to Q2 results which would include 1st full year results for RWLV. Current president was ex-mgm ceo
YES EVEN IN A POTENTIAL DOWNTURN, MGM WANTS TO BUY GENTING SINGAPORE THAT TELLS YOU GAMING IS FOREVER AND ETERNAL GENTSG BOOK VALUE SGD 0.65 SELL TO MGM 1.95 3 TIMES BOOK STILL CHEAP WHEN CHINA REOPENS
IMO selling GenS at RM4 per share is not a good deal to minorities GB NTA may grow to RM12, but any capital returns that LKT would approve, will not be worth the share price reduction post sales of GenS Unless of course, MGM pays a big premium of say RM8 per share, then there is hope capital return of >RM1, while GB share price will reduce by only say RM0.50
Excerpts from GENS announcement: Further to enquiries made by the Company of its Directors and senior management pursuant to the queries from the SGX-ST, Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay, the Executive Chairman and indirect controlling shareholder of the Company, has informed the Company that he is aware, by virtue of his position as Executive Chairman and Chief Executive of Genting Berhad, that Genting Berhad had received an unsolicited approach for its shareholding in the Company, which has not been pursued. Save in respect of the foregoing media reports and the information provided by Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay, the Company is not aware of any information not previously announced concerning the Company, its subsidiaries or associated companies which might explain the trading on 15 July 2022. The Company will, in compliance with the Corporate Disclosure Policy of the SGX-ST Listing Manual, make the necessary disclosures (if any) at the appropriate time.
