Sun International achieves growth despite weak economy

JOHANNESBURG - Resort hotel chain and casino group Sun International said on Wednesday its operations achieved growth in gaming revenue and a satisfactory earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization performance in the year to December despite an increase in value-added tax last April and weakness in the South African economy.

Its Sun City resort in the North West province however reported weaker results than anticipated as a result of the current economic environment and the cancellation of a few large conferences, although this was expected to improve during the second half of 2019 based on the rate of forward bookings. During the period under review Sun International said it managed to reduce its borrowings from R15 billion at the end of 2017 to R14.7 billion at 31 December 2018.
