Although some research shows that the willingness of Chinese tourists to spend in Macau remains high, recent market changes signal a potential decline in consumption.

The expansion of non-gaming facilities surrounding casinos has faced some headwinds recently. Hidden risks are emerging, highlighted by news that Macau’s leading luxury retailer, DFS, has implemented voluntary unpaid leave for all employees during the summer season, which is typically characterized by high seasonality.

The retailer in question has reportedly experienced a 40 percent drop in sales revenue this year compared to the same period last year, a trend that starkly contrasts the ongoing recovery in visitor arrivals this year.

Looking at the official data, Macau received nearly 14.2 million visitor arrivals from January to May this year, up 50.2 percent year-on-year. In May alone, Macau visitor arrivals rose 21.6 percent year-on-year to just over 2.69 million, with the city’s gross gaming revenue (GGR) reaching MOP20.19 billion ($2.51 billion), the best monthly performance since January 2020.

Macau’s diversification efforts appear to be showing some positive impact, with Macau’s non-gaming sectors seen contributing around 15% of concessionaire revenues in 2024.

According to a note by Seaport Research Partners analyst Vitaly Umansky, Macau GGR should rise to US$28.7 billion this year, up 26.1% year-on-year, while non-gaming is tipped to rise to US$4.9 billion, up 17.7% year-on-year. This would see non-gaming equate to 15% of all revenues, boosted by concessionaire spending on non-gaming initiatives as mandated under their current 10-year concession contracts.

“In 2025, we forecast GGR to rise to US$31.8 billion and non-gaming to rise to US$5.3 billion,” Umansky added, suggesting the contribution of non-gaming will slip slightly to around 14%.

“Property EBITDA for the industry is forecasted to rise 24.8% and 15.5% year-on-year in 2024 and 2025, respectively.”

Visitors to Macau spent an aggregate of just under MOP20.35 billion (US$2.53 billion), excluding gaming expenses, in the first quarter of 2024, up 35.9 percent year-on-year.

Macau saw nearly 8.88 million visitors in the three months to March 31, up 79.4 percent from a year earlier, show official data.

According to the data, overnight visitors to Macau spent an aggregate of MOP16.43 billion in the reporting period, a 33.1-percent increase year-on-year.

Chief Executive (CE) Ho Iat Seng said on Sunday that the gaming industry accounted for 36.2  per cent of the SAR’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2023, within the economic diversification targets set by the government.

The head of government was speaking at a press conference where he summarised the 7-day visit of the top Beijing official in charge of Macau and Hong Kong affairs, which concluded on Sunday.

Ho indicated that while the gross added value of the gaming industry is set to increase in 2024, the aim is to ensure it does not exceed 40 per cent, in line with the 2024-2028 economic diversification blueprint unveiled last November.

“While the GDP will continue to increase, we hope to keep this share [gaming industry] at around 40 per cent, with non-gaming activities taking 60 per cent,” the Chief Executive said.

Brokerage firm Citigroup said that player demand had remained robust in Macau, as indicated by an increase in premium mass baccarat tables across the city in January.

In a recent report, analysts George Choi and Ryan Cheung noted that at least 98 premium mass baccarat tables were added to Macau casinos this month, while the total wager observed showed a significant month-on-month increase of 26 per cent to HKD11.5 million (MOP11.8 million/ US$1.4 million).

Among the recently added baccarat tables, 55 were located at the newly opened Oilong Club at Studio City’s Epic Tower and Galaxy Macau’s Pavilion South, while an additional 43 premium mass tables were introduced to other casinos.
 The analysts highlighted that players’ passion for gaming did not seem to be impacted by the current state of the Chinese economy.

Das receitas totais angariadas pelas concessionárias em 2022, o peso das receitas das actividades não jogo subiu 12 pontos percentuais face ao ano de 2019, atingindo 22,41% do total, com um valor de 12,16 mil milhões de patacas. Alinhadas com as políticas do Governo sobre a diversificação económica e devido aos impactos epidémicos, o peso das receitas do jogo tem vindo a diminuir entre as concessionárias. Um relatório dos Serviços de Estatística e Censos revelou ainda que o peso da indústria do jogo na estrutura sectorial diminuiu e foi ultrapassado no ano anterior, pela primeira vez, pelo peso das actividades financeiras e imobiliárias.
