Improvement in Philippine operations narrows Bloomberry net loss

Despite three quarter losses, Bloomberry boss Enrique Razon is still positive as net loss narrows and gaming revenue grows.

Bloomberry Resorts Corp. has posted a net loss of PHP189.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, compared to a net profit of PHP 991.7 million over the same period a year ago.

Operating expenses is also by 58.1% to PHP5.9 billion in Q3. EBITDA also fell 1.2% to PHP 2.4 billion year-on-year but showed a 53% improvement from the second quarter.

Razon noted that the result is a significant quarter-on-quarter improvement from the PHP787 million net loss reported on the previous quarter, attributable to strong growth across all gaming segment and non-gaming revenues with the opening of Solaire Resort and Casino’s Sky Tower in November 2014.
