Macau satellite casino closures could shift gaming to SJM properties
At least nine of Macau’s 11 satellite casinos are expected to close by year-end, with SJM planning to shut seven and negotiating over two others. A University of Macau academic said moving tables and electronic gaming machines to directly managed properties could improve margins, while labour costs would weigh on the business.
The closures could change where SJM operates gaming tables and machines and affect its margins and labour costs.
