MARINA Bay Sands saw its Q2 profit for the three months ended June 30 slip 1.7 per cent year on year to US$357 million as earnings were impacted by lower table game revenue.

Net revenue for the quarter was marginally lower, inching down 0.4 per cent to US$710.1 million mainly due to a slight drop in revenue from its casino business. Casino revenue - which contributes to the bulk of top line - came to US$556.7 million, or down 1.6 per cent, compared to the corresponding quarter a year earlier.
