KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 28): Genting Malaysia Bhd (GenM) posted a 44% drop in net profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014, to RM254.4 million, from RM460.4 million in the previous corresponding quarter. 

Revenue also fell 13.6% to RM1.9 billion, from RM2.2 billion previously, due to lower hold percentage in the premium player business. 

For the cumulative period, GenM's net profit fell 29.7% to RM612.7 million, on lower revenue of RM3.9 billion. 

Both the Malaysian and UK operations recorded lower revenue over the first half of the year, while revenue from the US operations was higher by RM55 million or 12%, mainly contributed by the commencement of the Bimini operations. 

Looking ahead, the group said it remained positive on longer term outlook for the leisure and hospitality industry.
