Boyd Gaming has released its Q2 2023 report, showing a 3% growth in yearly revenue, with $660.7m of its total $917m revenue coming from gaming departments.
While this is a small drop compared to the $684.9m made from gaming last year, the online gaming division saw a 50% increase, up to $85m.
This was helped in part by a 31% rise in net income, totalling $192.5m (£150m).
Keith Smith, Boyd Gaming President and CEO, said: “During the second quarter we once again proved our ability to deliver solid results in a challenging environment, thanks to our effective operating model, strong management teams and successful growth initiatives.
“We maintained our focus on building loyalty among our core customers while our operating teams continued to effectively manage expenses throughout the business, achieving strong companywide margins consistent with recent quarters.”

As for Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc (GLPI), its Q2 report showed a 3% increase in net income, with $160.1m total.
For total revenue, the $356.6m amount represented a 9% increase when compared to the results year-on-year.
Adjusted EBITDA also saw an increase at GLPI, with the final amount of $325.5m marking 5% in growth.

“Our second quarter financial growth reflects GLPI’s long-term expansion and diversification as a landlord with six tenants with 59 properties across 18 states, including eight new properties added in 2022 and in early 2023 with The Cordish Companies and Bally's Corporation, which are expected to benefit results in the second half of 2023 and beyond.”

Finally, PointsBet also released its figures for the Q2 2023 financial report season.
