The group doesn’t expect any additional material expenses to be incurred during the reopening because the majority of guests reportedly come from Thailand and the border between countries is still closed. Donaco promised it “will continue to maintain its tight cost control strategy, while operations remain at limited operating capacity; and management will maintain the discretion to tailor up or down the pace of operations to local conditions.”
The venue was temporarily closed on April 1 and was later inspected by the Cambodian government to ensure the proper preparation and safety measures. Earlier this month, Donaco reported that despite the ongoing pandemic, it lowered its fiscal-year loss to AUD58.9m ($41.6m) compared to AUD198m the previous year.
In the statement, Donaco assures its “two casinos are ready to resume to full operations as and when conditions ameliorate post COVID-19 and in conjunction with the flow of cross border travel with the reopening of international borders.”
