Galaxy Entertainment Group Limited (PK) (GXYEF)

Could be good. Its either fairly valued or undervalued based on growth and a turn around.

1 billion in profit. little pricey but how can you argue.

Galaxy Entertainment (GXYEF.PK) will be added to the Hang Seng Index on June 17 to join fellow Macau gaming company Sands China (LVS) and give the industry increased exposure. The addition could boost the share price of the companies as Hang-Seng indexed funds adjust to the development.

Macau July Gambling Revenue Up 48% On Year At MOP24.21 Bln

HONG KONG (Dow Jones)--Gambling revenue in Macau rose 48% in July from a year earlier, government statistics showed Monday, as visitors from mainland China continued to power growth in the world's largest casino gambling market.

Gambling revenue in the Chinese territory rose to MOP24.21 billion (US$3.0 billion) last month, up from MOP16.31 billion a year earlier, according to data from Macau's Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau.

July's revenue was second only to the all-time high of MOP24.31 billion hit in May, which was bolstered by the holiday season and the opening of Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd.'s new casino resort.

In the January-July period, Macau's gambling revenue rose 45% from a year earlier, following a 58% surge last year. Macau is the only place in China where casino gambling is legal.

Excerpt from WYNN earnings report PR.

Stanley Ho's SJM Holdings Ltd. (0880.HK), the market's largest operator with about one third of the territory's gambling revenue; Melco Crown Entertainment Ltd. (MPEL), a joint venture co-chaired by Ho's son Lawrence and Australian James Packer; and Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd. (0027.HK), controlled by the family of Hong Kong tycoon Lui Che Woo, are also forecast to report strong results, which will trickle out through the end of August.

Macau Casino Revenue May Grow 42% This Month, CLSA Forecasts

By Frank Longid - Jul 15, 2011 1:25 AM ET .

Macau casino gambling revenue may rise 42 percent this month, boosted by the opening of a resort by Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd. (27), according to CLSA Asia- Pacific Markets.

Revenue from gambling tables at the former Portuguese colony’s six casino operators reached 7.5 billion patacas ($934 million) in the first 10 days of the month, Aaron Fischer, the brokerage’s head of consumer and gaming research, said in a note to clients today. That would imply a full-month figure of 23 billion patacas, including slot machines, 42 percent more than a year ago and 12 percent higher than last month, he said.

Macau casino companies including Billionaire Stanley Ho’s SJM Holdings Ltd. (880) and Sheldon Adelson’s Sands China Ltd. (1928) have benefited from rising tourism. The Chinese city’s casino operators’ total gambling revenue last year grew 58 percent to 188 billion patacas, about four times that of the Las Vegas Strip. It’s up 45 percent to 124 billion patacas in the first six months of the year, according to government data.

Galaxy, part-owned by Permira Advisers LLP, in May opened its HK$15.5 billion ($2 billion) Galaxy Macau, with 450 tables, on the Cotai Strip, where Adelson has said he aimed to replicate the theme resorts of Las Vegas.

Letter to Galaxy Investor Relations
Dear Mr. Peter Caveny (ir@galaxyentertainment.com)

I am an American investor in your company stock, GXYEF. I never see any news about Galaxy on any of the news wires (see below) in America. All your competitors such as Melco, Sands, Wynn publish news in Macau and America. Why don't you?? I think it would be beneficial for you and the shareholders to make the USA aware of your company. I am very impressed with your BOD and management team they make the people in charge at your competitors look like amateurs.

Best Regards, Joe.

Macau Daily Times Casino stocks up on June revenue.

The city’s casinos are benefiting from improvements in rail and air infrastructure and from the lack of casinos in northern China, Teng wrote in the note.
Shares of Melco International Development Ltd. rose 5.6 percent, and Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd. jumped 5.2 percent. The latter leapfrogged Melco Crown and was the third best operator in terms of market share by gross gaming revenues, according to data compiled by Portuguese-language newspaper Tribuna de Macau.

Deutsche Bank Opinion

Macau plays may take a near-term breather following Monday's strong rally on robust June Macau gambling revenue figures, which rose 52% on year to HK$20 billion, faster than the year-to-date trend of 45%. Deutsche Bank says this is better than market expectations, and proves that concerns on VIP slowdown are overblown. The house remains bullish on the sector with high conviction Buys on Galaxy Entertainment (0027.HK), SJM Holdings (0880.HK) and Melco Crown. Galaxy is JPM's top sector pick as "we are confident on the success of the newly opened Galaxy Macau. With the new project, Galaxy would be the biggest market share winner for 2011 and would have the highest EBITDA growth among Macau operators during 2011-2012." Galaxy rose 5.2% to HK$17.50 Monday.

Wall Street Journal Article....

From below linked article:

Macau's May revenue was at the high end of a May 26 forecast from Bank of America Merrill Lynch for gambling revenue to hit between 23 billion patacas and 24 billion patacas last month. Analyst Billy Ng said the strong growth was partly due to the May 15 opening of Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd.'s new casino resort in Macau's Cotai area.

"We see Galaxy Macau driving traffic and injecting new VIP liquidity, with growth in both mass (market) and VIP for the rest of 2011," Mr. Ng wrote.

Still no one has contributed. This stock is a sleeper no one knows about it yet.
