By

-- スカイシティ・エンターテインメント・グループ(ASX:SKC、NZE:SKC)は、2026会計年度のEBITDA(金利・税金・減価償却費控除前利益)を、従来のガイダンスである1億9,000万~2億1,000万ニュージーランドドルから1億8,000万~1億9,000万ニュージーランドドルに下方修正したと、木曜日にニュージーランド証券取引所に提出した書類で発表した。 このガイダンスの下方修正は、最近の燃料価格上昇以降の取引状況に基づくものであり、残りの期間については概ね同様の状況が続くと、同書類は付け加えている。 同社は、2026会計年度のコスト削減目標である1,000万ニュージーランドドルを既に達成しており、事業運営およびコーポレート機能全体でさらなるコスト削減策に着手し、そのプロセスを支援するために外部アドバイザーを起用していると述べた。 スカイシティは資産売却プログラムの一環として、アルバートストリート99番地のオフィスビルとビクトリアストリートの投資物件の売却に関する拘束力のない基本合意書を締結した。売却条件は非公開。また、グランドホテルの買収に関心のある投資家からの意見も募っている、と提出書類には記載されている。 スカイシティは、2026年オンラインカジノ賭博法が5月1日に施行され、内務省(DIA)が2027年初頭からライセンスの発行を開始する予定であると指摘した。 同社のニュージーランド株は、直近の木曜日の取引で2%下落した。
