Las Vegas Sands to Invest Billions of Dollars in Asia
According to iGaming Korea sources, Las Vegas Sands is investing $3.8 billion after extending its gambling license in the former Portuguese enclave of Macau, despite the latter’s delayed recovery due to China’s strict economic controls. However, spending on non-gaming initiatives, such as a convention center and an amusement park, will account for the lion’s share of the total budget.
By the end of the fiscal year 2022, Las Vegas Sands had returned to profitability thanks to a net profit of $1.83 billion, made possible by the one-time gain realized from the prior year’s divestiture of the Venetian Casino property in Las Vegas.
