Genting Berhad

What Genting Berhad does

Genting Berhad is a Malaysian-domiciled, publicly listed multinational conglomerate (Bursa Malaysia: 3182.KL; OTC: GEBEY) founded in 1965 that operates a diversified holding-company structure anchored in integrated leisure and hospitality, which contributed 82% of group revenue and adjusted EBITDA in 2025 (RM27.7 billion revenue, RM8.0 billion adjusted EBITDA). The group holds Malaysia's sole casino license (obtained 1969) and operates the global "Resorts World" integrated-resort portfolio across Malaysia (Genting, Kijal, Langkawi), Singapore (Sentosa), the United States (Las Vegas, New York City, Catskills), the Bahamas (Bimini), and the United Kingdom (Birmingham, Stratford, planned London Trocadero). Complementary segments include Genting Plantations (oil palm, downstream manufacturing, AgTech, Premium Outlets JV with Simon Property Group), Genting Energy (power generation in China, Indonesia, India; oil and gas upstream in China and Indonesia including the FLNG Alam Guyub facility), property development, and life sciences (TauRx Pharmaceuticals' HMTM Alzheimer's therapy under UK MHRA review, TauRx Diagnostics Centre's HiPAL cognitive testing, Fontaine Vitale stem cell facility in Bali targeted end-2026).

Core product offerings span casino gaming floors (VIP and mass-market table games, electronic gaming machines, baccarat), hotels (including the October 2025-launched The Laurus Luxury Collection Resort in Singapore), theme parks and attractions (Universal Studios Singapore with Illumination's Minion Land and upcoming Super Nintendo World, Singapore Oceanarium, WEAVE lifestyle enclave), an 88-meter Heatherwick Studio light sculpture at Resorts World Sentosa, and Resorts World New York City's gaming complex (242 live table games and 2,500+ slot machines as of April 2026). Underlying technology comprises integrated resort management systems, FLNG (Floating Liquefied Natural Gas) technology for the Kasuri Block operations in West Papua, Indonesia, AI and big-data driven AgTech and genomic research for oil palm cultivation, and a technology innovation arm (RW Tech Labs).

Revenue is predominantly transaction-based on casino floors, augmented by recurring hotel room revenue, theme park admissions, F&B and retail concessions, palm oil commodity sales (RM3,853 per metric tonne achieved in 2025), electricity generation, upstream oil and gas, and licensing/royalties from TauRx and other life sciences assets. Distribution is direct through owned physical integrated resort properties, supplemented by tourism partnerships (e.g., Visit Malaysia Year 2026, Tourism Malaysia), event sponsorships (FIFA World Cup 26 fan zone), and MICE sales teams. The go-to-market is asset-heavy enterprise field sales combined with event-driven customer acquisition, targeting leisure travelers, high-net-worth gamers, MICE customers, and B2B commodity/utilities buyers across more than eight countries in Asia, North America, Europe, and the Caribbean.

Direct peers

• Caesars Entertainment: Operates a large US-centric integrated resort and regional gaming portfolio (Caesars Palace, Harrah's, Horseshoe, Eldorado brands) with Caesars Rewards loyalty program. Direct competitor in Las Vegas and overlapping presence in New York and other regional US markets.
• Melco Resorts & Entertainment: Operates City of Dreams and Studio City in Macau, Altira, and City of Dreams Mediterranean in Cyprus. Direct competitor in Asian premium integrated resort segment with overlapping customer segments in VIP and mass gaming.
• Wynn Resorts: Operates luxury integrated casino resorts in Las Vegas (Wynn, Encore), Macau (Wynn Macau, Wynn Palace), and is expanding into UAE with Wynn Al Marjan. Closest comparable in premium VIP/mass gaming and luxury positioning to Genting's Resorts World Las Vegas and Sentosa.
• Galaxy Entertainment Group: Hong Kong-listed operator of Galaxy Macau, StarWorld Macau, Broadway Macau, and developing a casino in Thailand. Direct competitor in Macau's mass-market integrated resort segment and a parallel Asian-focused integrated resort operator with similar geographic ambitions.
• MGM Resorts International: Owns and operates integrated resort-casinos on the Las Vegas Strip (Bellagio, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Aria) plus regional properties and BetMGM digital. Competes directly with Resorts World Las Vegas and Resorts World New York City on gaming, hotel, and entertainment.
• Las Vegas Sands: Operates integrated casino resorts in Macau (Venetian, Parisian, Sands, Plaza) and Singapore (Marina Bay Sands). Direct competitor to Genting in Asian destination integrated resorts and in Singapore against Resorts World Sentosa. Comparable business model anchored by gaming, MICE, and retail.

Regional players

Broad incumbents

• Boyd Gaming: Operates 28 gaming properties across 10 US states focused on regional gaming rather than destination resorts. Overlaps with Genting in Las Vegas (mainland) and shares the multi-state US regulatory and operational environment relevant to RWNYC and Catskills.

Emerging players

• Bally's Corporation: Regional US gaming operator with one of the three pending downstate New York casino licenses (alongside Hard Rock) directly competing for the same NYC market Genting is entering first. Comparable expansion profile and recently acquired Tropicana Las Vegas site adjacent to RWLV.
