Bally’s Corporation released its Q4 2024 earnings report, revealing a 5.1% year-over-year revenue drop to $580.4 million. The company continues to expand its footprint with new developments and acquisitions, positioning itself for long-term growth. Bally’s Q4 2024 earnings highlight shifting trends across its gaming segments.
Casinos & Resorts revenue fell 5.2% to $324.4 million, reflecting ongoing challenges in regional gaming markets. Weakness in locations like Rhode Island due to bridge construction impacted visitation, while Atlantic City’s performance was affected by a transition in marketing strategy.
International Interactive revenue declined 9.1% to $214.5 million, primarily due to market exits and divestitures. However, U.K. online revenue grew 11.3%, supported by strong player retention and revenue optimization efforts.
North America Interactive revenue surged 24.4% to $41.5 million, with strong growth in online gaming. The launch of the Monopoly Casino app in New Jersey and the Bally Bet sports betting platform in Tennessee contributed to the positive momentum.
Acquisitions bolster Bally’s portfolio, including the completion of deals with Standard General and The Queen Casino & Entertainment. Queen’s four properties added $57.6 million in Q4 revenue and $225.2 million for the full year.
Adjusted EBITDAR for the Casinos & Resorts segment dropped 14.6% to $80.9 million, attributed to increased costs and lower revenue flow-through. However, Kansas City operations showed strength following the opening of a new high-limit room.
International Interactive Adjusted EBITDAR decreased 12.4% to $81.6 million due to lower margins. However, excluding divested markets, revenue in regulated European markets grew 12.9%, demonstrating strong underlying performance.
North America Interactive segment posted a loss of $12.3 million in Adjusted EBITDAR, impacted by a transition to a unified platform. The company expects this to improve in Q1 2025 as platform stability increases.
