Summary:
Analysts at Citibank are projecting a robust March for Macau’s gambling sector, forecasting a 14% year-on-year increase in gross gambling revenue (GGR) to 22.5 billion MOP. This would translate to a daily average of 726 million MOP, a figure consistent with the strong performance seen in January. The positive outlook is supported by a strong post-Lunar New Year demand, with February’s GGR reaching 20.627 billion MOP, beating market expectations. The bank also notes that a packed schedule of major events, including concerts by artists like Wang Sulong, aespa, and ATEEZ at venues like the Galaxy Arena and the Venetian Theatre, is expected to provide a significant boost to visitor numbers and in-casino activity throughout the month.
Key Quote:
“The post-holiday demand was stronger than usual, and the event calendar in March is very full, which bodes well for the month’s results.” — Citibank Research Note
