Trouble continues as Star Entertainment burns through cash
The media reports raised fresh allegations against Mr White of inappropriate behaviour from a former employee and a company supplier. According to Reuters, this was to buy the US Commerce Department time to make the order workable, after the rapid change created disruptions for customs inspectors, postal and delivery services and online retailers. "If the directors requested inquiries be made by management there was a lot of material available the board could have read." The biggest winner was Star Entertainment (+13.6%) on speculation it is about to offload its Brisbane casino ... Many of its remaining shareholders grabbed what they could before fleeing the wreck. The academic services and utilities sectors were in solid demand, while Ansell's strong result led healthcare higher.
Buying time ahead of an expected equity raise in fiscal 2025, the company raised $200 million in emergency debt facilities at a sharp 13.5% per year. Star’s balance sheet is in precarious condition after their 8th Jan update. Elevated remediation costs in fiscal 2023, poor performance and fines increased led to two dilutive capital raises in 2023 at $1.20 and $0.60 per share. In our view, the NSW government’s issue of the second casino license in Sydney stemmed from underinvestment and underperformance in The Star Sydney, depriving the state of taxation revenue. Star spent ~$500 million improving its Sydney facilities ahead of Crown Sydney’s opening however it was too little too late. We estimate that 30% of table revenue will be conceded to Crown Sydney within three years of the competitor’s operation. Fears circulate for Star after recent spending suggests the operator would be lucky to survive till their interim results expected late February.
Yeah definitely didn’t need someone explaining to me the morality of it, she had to handle with tweezers — may find a home elsewhere in Los Angeles.
