In the UK, the Rank Group’s Grosvenor Casinos business saw revenue increase seven per cent in the 15 weeks to October 14.
This revenue growth came mainly from higher than usual win margin at the company’s London casinos, driven by major player activity.
During the period, Grosvenor experienced a 13 per cent growth in spend per visits, which offset a five per cent drop in customer visits.
Rank confirmed that it is continuing to assist the UK Competition Commission with its inquiry into its proposed acquisition of Gala Casinos. Gala Coral and Rank are currently discussing appropriate amendments to the previously agreed terms in light of the deal being referred to the Commission.
