Dover Downs releases results for second quarter 201530 July 2015(PRESS RELEASE) -- Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment today reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Net earnings were $631,000 compared with $164,000 for the second quarter of 2014. Earnings per diluted share were $.02 compared with $.01 for the second quarter of 2014. The Company’s revenues for the second quarter of 2015 were $45,301,000 compared with $46,206,000 for the second quarter of 2014. Gaming revenues were $38,058,000 compared to $39,284,000 for the second quarter of last year. The decline is primarily attributable to the competitive environment in the mid-Atlantic gaming market and a lower table game hold percentage in the second quarter of this year. Other operating revenues increased to $7,243,000 compared to $6,922,000 for the second quarter of 2014 from higher cash rooms revenue and revenue associated with the Company taking over certain retail operations in the casino. Occupancy levels in the Dover Downs Hotel were approximately 85% for the second quarter of 2015 compared with 88% during the second quarter last year. General and administrative, depreciation and interest expenses were each down slightly compared to the second quarter of 2014. “Historically, the spring and summer months are stronger months for the company and that held true during our second quarter,” said Denis McGlynn, president and CEO. “We benefited from growth in hotel rooms revenue and a decision to take on-site retail operations in-house. Unfortunately, we also had to engage in another round of expense reductions which included the elimination of 72 jobs so far this year. We’re hopeful that the legislature will act on the recommendations of its own appointed study commission when the next session convenes in January and provide the gaming tax relief that was recommended.” This release contains or may contain forward-looking statements based on management’s beliefs and assumptions. Such statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause results to vary materially. Please refer to the Company’s SEC filings for a discussion of such factors.
