Bossini revenue drops

General Views of Macau As Casino Revenue Falls 32% While China Curbs Hit VIP Gaming

Bossini International’s revenues decreased by eight percent to HKD2,319 million in the financial year that ended 30 June 2016, as stated in the group’s 2015/2016 Annual Results, published on Wednesday. In turn, gross profits fell 12 percent to HKD1,107 million. “Throughout the financial year 2015/16 there were fewer visitors to Hong Kong and Macau and this, coupled with a strong Hong Kong dollar, led to reduced consumption from visitors in Hong Kong and Macau,” the company noted. “Compounding this, weak local sentiment, unseasonably warm winter weather during late 2015 in Hong Kong and Macau and intensified competition in our core markets added further to the challenges faced.”
