It doesn’t feel like this will have the same cadence as the sports betting rollout,” Smith said of the activity that is now operational in 31 states and Washington, D.C. Indiana, where Boyd operates the Belterra and Blue Chip casinos, is expected to consider internet gaming legislation next year. “This is a profitable business that we bought, so it has an existing base built into it,” Smith said. Pala has two revenue streams: a business that provides an online gaming platform to casino operators in legal markets, and an online casino site the company operates in New Jersey. The company closed its $170 million purchase of Pala Interactive on Tuesday. In Louisiana, Boyd is in the process of building a land-based facility for the Treasure Chest Casino outside of New Orleans, which will increase the scope of the gaming floor.īoyd Gaming is also looking to expand its presence in the legal online gaming market, where it has internet casinos in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

In the third quarter, almost 69 percent of the company’s $877 million in revenue came from markets away from Nevada. While Red Rock is ensconced in Southern Nevada, Boyd operates 20 regional properties in 10 states, including the recently opened Sky River Casino near Sacramento, California, for Wilton Rancheria Tribe. In the third quarter, Red Rock reported revenue of $414.4 million from its Las Vegas resorts.

“All those properties have interested buyers that we’re in discussion with at this time,” Red Rock Resorts President Scott Kreeger said. Red Rock plans to sell nearly 190 acres around the Las Vegas Valley, including the sites of the two closed Fiesta casinos in Henderson and North Las Vegas and the demolished Texas Station in North Las Vegas. It’s scheduled to open late next year.īut Red Rock CFO Stephen Cootey told analysts on the company’s third-quarter conference call last week that sites in the Henderson community of Inspirada and Sky Canyon in northwest Las Vegas are moving “through the planning entitlement and zoning processes.” Red Rock, the corporate parent of operator Station Casinos, owns 630 acres of developable land across Southern Nevada.įor now, the under-construction $750 million Durango Station in southwestern Las Vegas, near the 215 Beltway, is the focus. The company, Boyd’s largest competitor in the neighborhood casino market, has visions of doubling its footprint in the Las Vegas Valley by 2030. The approach is different for Red Rock Resorts. “We obviously have great competence in Las Vegas.”

“There are always opportunities and we are always looking for ways to expand,” Smith said.
