Just wondering what the New York State Gaming Commission would think if they saw how disappointed minority shareholders are of genting malaysia bhd which wholly owns resort world new york city about this privatisation process.
NGC couldn't be bothered with the privatization. NGC is more interested to have bidders bidding for the license. Genting has just exceeded 50% shareholdings of GenM which means the offer is now unconditional.
Cheng , do u think the takeover of genm will successful? base on the Genting acquired at the moment Abit slow...only 50.2%. ..seem like still got long path to go ....
we will know before end of the year based on 13th Oct announcement date, Vin. As for the percentage, things can change pretty fast as we do not know who are the PACs and funds/insti decision.
I have doubts in the short term even if it is successful due to the debt financing, Vin. Analysts opinions are split between good offer against market price before take over offer vs not good for not considering successful bid of NYC casino license. 6.3bil of debt financing for the takeover offer is not a small amount given that GenS will be in net debt before 2030. One of the possibility that I could think of is that - to consolidate US assets and list it in US. All in all, it seems to raise lots of questions.
Not sure about plunge, Vin. I think other rating agencies will probably make the same credit negative conclusion. And most likely Gent will not issue dividend for Q4 performance either. It will plunge by then.
The building at Queens now already can housed 6000 slot machines. When that building was build the casino floor space is extra biggg to accomodate extra space liao . Once get licence, just remove 2000 slot machines, so have 4000 slot machines and 400 table games IN THE EXISTING BUILDING. No need build anything already can make EBITDA USD 800 mil. In their submission to the NY Gaming Commission they already forecast their potential revenue as USD2.2 million.Check other US news articles posted in US newspapers. Material news disclosures should be transparent between the US and Malaysia news available in public but what to do lah.

list genting america….mamerica….marketbil-7b ? low ball…then genting malaysia owns 100% kan. wht funding problem
Thanks, Jack. Attached is the supplemental information provided by RWNYC. Ooh boy... Pretty obvious its an aggressive modelling or assumptions used to lobby for the license - ggr, non-gaming revenue and taxes. Such aggressive assumptions are the exact downside risks with RWNYC expansion whereby lower ggr, lower non gaming revenue and higher taxes at the back of high capex coupled with NYC online gaming legislation that could undercut its revenue and steep downside to its valuation. https://nycasinos.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2025/10/gi1.rwnyc_.executivesummarysupplement.pdf
