FBR Capital on Real Estate/Gaming: Indiana's Gaming Revenue Fell 0.2% in June, an Improvement over May's -5.4%
FBR analyst said, "Indiana’s total gaming revenue fell 0.2% year over year to $221.3 million in June 2011, compared with –5.4% and +0.4% in May and April, respectively. Despite June's monthly gaming revenue still falling below 2010's levels, the sequential improvement is encouraging, in our view. Total casino admissions decreased 6.4% year over year in June, compared with May's and April's year-over-year growth rates of –11.0% and –4.4%, respectively. Win per admissions rose 6.0% year over year in June, compared with year-over-year growth rates of +5.1% and +3.3% in May and April, respectively. There was no calendar effect in June 2011. Indiana’s gaming revenue rose 1.0% in June 2010, which compares with –1.0% in May 2010. Indiana will be up against a +1.1% comp in July."
