With the ramp up of Zaha Hadid-designed Morpheus, addition of new VIP gaming areas, optimizing betting limits and an emphasis on customer relationships, CoD is “firing on all cylinders,” Melco Chairman and CEO Lawrence Ho said on the second quarter earnings call. CoD’s adjusted EBITDA for the quarter rose 34% to US$251 million, accounting for 60% of Melco’s total. Given new duties as Chief Operating Officer for Macau in September, Sisk must continue the upward trend at CoD while also monitoring Studio City, where he spent 16 months as President; Altira, the boutique luxury property on Taipa, overlooking the Macau peninsula; and Mocha slot clubs. Studio City promises particular challenges. The New York Stock Exchange listed property with 36% hedge fund ownership faces a July 2021 deadline for completion of its US$1.4 billion second phase, with an additional 900 guest rooms and new gaming space. Melco is in talks to extend the deadline. There’s the lingering issue of balancing ownership considerations – buying out the minority shareholder would solve that – and creating synergy with Melco’s other products. As competition grows in Macau and regionally, companies need to fire on all cylinders across their portfolios. 有賴 David Sisk的管理，新濠博亞的旗艦物業新濠天地再度大放異彩。鑑於由 札哈・哈蒂設計的摩珀斯酒店支持、增設貴賓廳面積、優化下注規定以及加強客 戶關係等因素，新濠博亞主席兼行政總裁何猷龍在第二季度財報電話會議中形 容，新濠天地的發展正「火力全開」。新濠天地第二季經調整EBITDA上升了34% 至25.1億美元，佔集團整體60%。 自九月起，David Sisk開始出任公司澳門首席執行官，除了需繼續保持新 濠天地的上升勢頭，還需管理他曾出任16個月總裁職位的新濠影匯，位於氹仔、 俯瞰澳門半島的新濠鋒酒店，以及摩卡娛樂場。 尤其是新濠影匯正面臨不少挑戰，該物業於紐約證券交易所上市，並由對 沖基金持股36%，需於2021年7月完成耗資14億美元的第二期擴建工程，為物 業新增900間客房及新的博彩空間，但新濠博亞正尋求延長該完工期限。新濠影 匯另一個揮之不去的問題是，其股權結構以及如何與公司其他物業發揮協同作 用，收購少數股東股權或可解決問題。隨著澳門及區域市場競爭越趨激烈，各博 企旗下物業正正需要火力全開。 POWER SCORE 權能指數 : 701 POSITION LAST YEAR 去年排名 : 20
