Melco Announces Record Adjusted Property EBITDA in the Fourth Quarter 2018
Reading Time: 11 minutes
Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited, a developer, owner and operator of casino gaming and entertainment casino resort facilities in Asia, reported its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018.
Net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 was US$1,396.5 million, representing an increase of approximately 5% from US$1,332.6 million for the comparable period in 2017. The increase in net revenue was primarily attributable to higher group-wide rolling chip and mass market table games gross gaming revenues, partially offset by higher commissions reported as a reduction in revenue upon the Company’s adoption of a new revenue recognition standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “New Revenue Standard”). The Company adopted the New Revenue Standard on January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. Results for the periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 are presented under the New Revenue Standard, while prior year amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the previous basis. Under the previous basis, before the adoption of the New Revenue Standard, net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 would have been US$1,497.7 million, which would have represented an increase of approximately 12% from the US$1,332.6 million for the comparable period in 2017.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2018 was US$204.0 million, compared with operating income of US$129.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 58%.
Adjusted property EBITDA(1) was US$425.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, as compared to Adjusted property EBITDA of US$339.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 25%. The increase in Adjusted property EBITDA was mainly attributable to better performance in the group-wide rolling chip and mass market table games segments.
Net income attributable to Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited for the fourth quarter of 2018 was US$128.0 million, or US$0.27 per ADS, compared with US$81.2 million, or US$0.17 per ADS, in the fourth quarter of 2017. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests during the fourth quarter of 2018 was US$2.2 million and the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests during the fourth quarter of 2017 was US$9.8 million, both of which were related to Studio City and City of Dreams Manila.
Mr. Lawrence Ho, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Opening of the iconic, award-winning Morpheus, and the continued robust growth in Macau’s mass gaming market have allowed Melco to deliver record-level Property EBITDA despite the challenging macro environment.
“Melco’s dedication to excellence has been widely recognized, most recently by the Michelin Guide 2019 with the Company remaining as the leading integrated resort operator in the world with the most Michelin-starred restaurants. We are extremely proud to achieve a record-breaking milestone with six of Melco’s signature restaurants being awarded with a total of ten Michelin Stars. That includes Alain Ducasse at Morpheus, which was awarded with two Michelin Stars in less than six months after opening, and Jade Dragon in City of Dreams, which was awarded with three Michelin Stars.
“The opening of Morpheus only marks the beginning of the relaunch of City of Dreams. On top of that, we have recently unveiled the significantly upgraded VIP gaming spaces on the second floor of City of Dreams. Rolling refurbishment of Nüwa will also soon commence with the upgraded hotel rooms expected to come online over the next eighteen months.
“In January, the Macau government authorized Melco to operate 40 additional gaming tables at City of Dreams. We are sincerely thankful of the Macau government for its consideration and approval of our gaming table application.
“At Studio City, we continue to enhance the entertainment offerings with a series of property upgrades, which include the recent launch of the world’s most electrifying stunt show – Elekron. Earlier in January, we also opened the pop-up ‘Legend Heroes Park’, paving way for the opening of the permanent venue later in the year. Lastly, the ‘Flip Out’ Trampoline Park is expected to open in the first half of 2019.
“In the Philippines, City of Dreams Manila delivered another solid quarter underpinned by robust mass gaming revenue growth.
“The Board has, after evaluating the Company’s current liquidity position and future expected capital needs, decided to increase the quarterly cash dividend by 7% to US$0.0517 per ordinary share, which is equivalent to US$0.1551 per ADS, from the previous quarterly dividend of US$0.04835 per ordinary share. Since our third quarter results announcement, the Company has also repurchased approximately 10 million ADSs, worth approximately US$165 million, under the US$500 million share repurchase program the Company announced in November 2018.
“Lastly, Japan continues to be a core focus for us. We expect development of the next generation of integrated resorts to soon commence in this incredibly exciting, yet currently underpenetrated, tourism destination. With our focus on the Asian premium segment, high quality assets, dedication to world-class entertainment offerings, market-leading social safeguards and compliance culture, and our commitment to being an ideal partner to local governments and communities alike, we believe Melco is in a strong position to help Japan realize the vision for integrated resort development with a unique Japanese touch.”

Movers and Shakers: 24/7 Content, Strict Integrity, and Constant Feedback – BETER’s Approach to Sustainable Partnerships
Reading Time: 4 minutes
“Movers and Shakers” is a dynamic monthly column dedicated to exploring the latest trends, developments, and influential voices in the iGaming industry. Powered by GameOn and supported by HIPTHER, this op-ed series delves into the key players, emerging technologies, and regulatory changes shaping the future of online gaming. Each month, industry experts offer their insights and perspectives, providing readers with in-depth analysis and thought-provoking commentary on what’s driving the iGaming world forward. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to the scene, “Movers and Shakers” is your go-to source for staying ahead in the rapidly evolving iGaming landscape.
We spoke with Oleg Onegov, Head of Strategic Partnerships & Account Management at BETER, about the fast-betting provider’s approach to cultivating, strengthening, and sustaining relationships with partners.
Can you tell us about your career journey and your current role as Head of Strategic Partnerships & Account Management at BETER?
I’ve been working in the betting and iGaming industry for several years, mainly focusing on client relations and business development. Over time, I realised that my strongest skill was in building long-term partnerships and helping clients derive real business value from the products they use. At BETER, I lead the Strategic Partnerships & Account Management team, focusing on ensuring we deliver not only content but also help operators and aggregators grow with it—whether through improved integrations, new products, or data-driven insights. This is critical to scaling BETER’s presence in the esports and sports ecosystem. My role also sees me work closely with internal and external stakeholders to deliver value-driven solutions that support operational excellence and long-term commercial goals.
Different operators and aggregators have different needs. How do you and your team ensure that BETER’s products and solutions remain in demand and are continuously aligned with each client’s evolving business and market changes?
BETER is renowned for providing 24/7 live streaming, real-time data, and hyper-accurate odds for approximately 700,000 fast-paced esports and sports events annually, offering up to 50 markets per event with an average operator margin of 7.5% or higher.
Our esports portfolio includes ESportsBattle tournaments featuring eFootball, eBasketball, eHockey, and eTennis. Our sports portfolio includes the Setka Cup table tennis series, BSKT Cup basketball league, GTR Cup tennis tournaments, and Padel tennis, as well as coverage of official cricket tournaments and leagues worldwide.
In addition to our fast-paced content, we offer a comprehensive Esports Odds Feed, delivering market-leading odds with the highest uptime for more than 450 tournaments worldwide. This includes over 40,000 pre-match and live events annually across popular titles such as CS 2, Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant, and more.
We are also continuously working on obtaining regulatory approvals in all major markets globally, including U.S. states such as New Jersey and Colorado, where our content is live on bet365’s local domains.
When it comes to ensuring that our products remain in demand and aligned with each client’s evolving business and market changes, our approach is never “one size fits all.” My team and I maintain close communication with every partner to ensure we’re consistently meeting their needs. Some clients aim to maximise esports engagement, others focus on traditional sports, while some want to experiment with new formats such as eTennis or Padel—or even launch fully branded, customised tournaments like our dedicated eFootball series designed specifically for operator needs.
We constantly review performance data, align on KPIs, and adjust delivery or features accordingly. Moreover, our product roadmap is highly flexible—we prioritise developments that bring the most value to our clients’ business models. Ultimately, close collaboration with operators and aggregators helps us understand regional specifics and tailor our products to different markets, while our agility in implementation and regulatory readiness give partners confidence that BETER’s solutions will continue to fit their evolving needs.
Many companies emphasize client success at the start of a relationship, but sustaining it over time is much more challenging. What specific processes, practices, or approaches does BETER use to support clients throughout the entire journey and ensure that partnerships grow into long-term, trust-based relationships?
At BETER, client success is ongoing. My team runs regular business reviews and performance check-ins, where we don’t just present numbers but also propose explicit next steps. We involve product managers at the beginning of new partnerships, so clients can see how their feedback translates into real improvements. Transparency is also key, and we share daily reports, monitor incidents in real time, and communicate openly if something needs fixing. This kind of consistency and accountability builds trust and makes our partnerships long-lasting.
Feedback loops are vital. How does BETER work with client feedback, and in what ways does it influence your product development and solution improvements?
Feedback is at the core of how we evolve. We collect it in various ways, including through structured NPS surveys, regular calls, daily chats, and even during integration discussions. Every input gets logged and shared across product, trading, and IT teams.
Many of our most successful launches, such as new esports markets for Dota 2 and CS 2 titles in our coverage of tournaments worldwide, came directly from client requests. Our eTennis series also originated from a product discussion sparked by a client’s feedback, which expressed the need for completely new offerings for their bettors.
What matters is not just listening, but also closing the loop and showing the client how their feedback shaped the roadmap and what the result looks like in practice.
What are the most important pillars of BETER’s operations that operators or aggregators pay the most attention to—both when entering into a partnership and throughout the entire collaboration?
From my experience, there are four pillars clients care about most.
First is content quality and variety — at BETER, we offer fresh and engaging disciplines such as eFootball, eBasketball, and eTennis, supported by diverse game formats.
Second is reliability, especially when it comes to uptime, latency, and the accuracy of our data feeds and live streams. That’s why our team works tirelessly to maintain the highest possible uptime across all our products.
Third is integrity and compliance — operators need confidence that the product is fair, transparent, and secure. Our dedicated Integrity team ensures that only 0.01% of matches have been flagged as suspicious.
Finally, there’s our approach to partnerships — we’re not just a provider; we act as an extension of our partners’ teams, ready to adapt and innovate together.
This combination of high-quality content, operational excellence, trust, and genuine collaboration is what keeps our partnerships strong from day one — and well into the future.
