Like all other casino operators in the US, PNG was hit hard by the Covid-19 crisis in 2020, with its venues forced to close for large period of the year, in line with state restrictions to slow the spread of the virus.
Northeast operations totalled $1.64bn, down 31.7% year-on-year, while revenue from PNG’s south segment also declined by 24.1% to $849.6m. Midwest revenue was down 37.8% to $681.4m, while west operations revenue more than halved to $302.5m.
Other revenue was up 163.2% year-on-year to $125.0m. PNG’s other revenue was slightly boosted by the Barstool Sports mobile app, which launched in September after the operator acquired a 36% stake in media business Barstool Sports in January 2020. Stand-alone racing operations were also included in this segment.
