Maryland’s casino operators reported a modest revenue gain in April but failed to match their record-setting pace in March.

Figures released this week by the Maryland Lottery and Gaming agency show the state’s six casinos generated gaming revenue of $145.2m in April, a 1.2% rise over the same month last year, albeit well back of the record $163.3m performance set this March.

April’s gains were entirely due to slot machines, which improved by $4m to nearly $94.3m. Table game revenue was down around $2.3m to just under $51m.

Four individual properties were in positive territory in April, led by (as always) MGM Resorts’ National Harbor casino, which reported revenue of $60.8m, a 5.3% year-on-year improvement but well back of March’s $62.8m and even further off the property’s record showing of $73.4m in October 2018.
