Red Rock Resorts Announces Second Quarter 2020 Results
Red Rock Resorts, Inc. reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
The unprecedented challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic have significantly impacted the Company’s business operations.
On March 17, 2020, the Governor of Nevada ordered a statewide shutdown of all nonessential businesses, including casinos, in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Similarly, the Graton Casino Resort, which is managed by the Company, closed on March 17th. What originally began as a thirty day shutdown in Nevada ended seventy-nine days later.
On June 4, 2020, the Company reopened its Red Rock, Green Valley Ranch, Santa Fe Station, Boulder Station, Palace Station and Sunset Station properties, together with its Wildfire properties. The Graton Casino Resort also partially reopened on June 18, 2020.
Second Quarter Results:
Net revenues were $108.5 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 77.5%, or $374.4 million, from $482.9 million for the same period of 2019, due to the closure of all of the Company’s properties, as explained above.
Net loss was $118.4 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $111.4 million, from a net loss of $7.1 million for the same period of 2019, due to the closure of all of the Company’s properties, as explained above.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) was negative $17.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 115.0%, or $132.5 million, from $115.2 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to the closure of all of the Company’s properties, as explained above.
Las Vegas Operations
Net revenues from Las Vegas operations were $101.0 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 77.9%, or $356.7 million, from $457.8 million in the same period of 2019, due to the closure of all of the Company’s Las Vegas properties, as explained above.
Adjusted EBITDA from Las Vegas operations was negative $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 111.4%, or $118.1 million, from $106.0 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to the closure of all of the Company’s Las Vegas properties, as explained above.
Despite the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, our Las Vegas properties showed strong performance for the post-reopening period from June 4 through June 30, 2020. As compared to the same period in the prior year, net revenues decreased 23.3%, Adjusted EBITDA increased 46.8% and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 2,192 basis points to 45.9%, yielding our highest June EBITDA margin ever. The improved operating results were due in large part to our streamlined cost structure. However, these operating trends are based on the limited period that the properties were open in June and there can be no assurance that these trends will continue at our properties that have reopened or recur at our other properties when or if they reopen.
Native American Management
Adjusted EBITDA from Native American operations was $5.2 million for the second quarter of 2020, a 76.3% decrease from $22.0 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to the temporary closure of Graton Casino Resort.
Balance Sheet Highlights
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2020 were $270.1 million and total principal amount of debt outstanding at the end of the second quarter was $3.3 billion.
