The Tropicana had a profit of $36.7 million, down 11.5% Harrah's had a $30 million profit, down over 13% Caesars had a $21.1 million profit, down nearly 18% Golden Nugget had an $11 million profit, nearly 4% Bally's had a $7.3 million profit, down over 32% and Resorts had a $7.2 million profit, down nearly 43%. That significantly increased the amount of the casino's reported gross operating profits, the division said. But the gaming enforcement division said the Borgata recently changed the way it treated some rent expenses, moving them from the category of an operating expense to a non-operating expense for accounting purposes.
The Borgata reported a profit of $73.5 million, down 1.7% from a year ago. James Plousis, chairman of the New Jersey Casino Control Commission, noted that third-quarter gross operating profit was the third-best in Atlantic City since 2008, despite negative effects from a cybersecurity issue affecting the parent companies of four casinos.
