Full House Resorts had a negative return on equity of 181.56% and a negative net margin of 13.29%.The company had revenue of $75.42 million for the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $78.66 million.
Here are the key takeaways from Full House Resorts’ conference call:
- American Place temporary casino is accelerating — Q4 revenue rose 11% to $32.0M and adjusted property EBITDA jumped 29% to $8.7M, and management reiterates targets of roughly $50M run-rate EBITDA for the temporary site and ~$100M for the permanent facility.
- Permanent American Place is moving forward — foundation drawings are nearly complete and the company expects to break ground imminently, and it reports multiple financing proposals (including options that would fund construction without issuing equity) while pursuing a legislative 18‑month extension to operate the temporary casino.
- Chaminade turnaround shows early progress — a new full management team and marketing agency drove H2 2025 revenue +5% and a $4.2M gain in adjusted property EBITDA versus H2 2024, but results remain seasonally variable and some operational fixes are still in progress.
- Balance sheet and recurring cash flow are supportive — the company had about $51M of liquidity (including the undrawn revolver) at quarter end, extended revolver maturity to Aug 15, 2027, and benefits from sports‑wagering and Illinois operations that materially contribute EBITDA and cover interest expense.
