Sands China's property earnings rose to US$630m

Just a tad 1% higher.

According to Nomura, property EBITDA came in at USD630mn (+1% q-q), in line with our forecast of USD632mn but shy of the Street’s estimate of ~USD640mn. 

The addition of new rooms and tables was instrumental in boosting q-q mass revenue growth (+13% q-q, vs sector average of +6% q-q).

However, a more normalised win rate and lower non-gaming contributions reduced the q-q growth in overall EBITDA.

Net EBITDA margin remained steady at 32%; the strong performance in mass was offset by a seasonal decline in non-gaming rental income.
