Singapore, Jan 25, 2026, 15:19 (SGT) — Market closed
- Shares of Genting Singapore ended Friday flat, closing at S$0.73
- The CEO of Resorts World Sentosa is betting on repeat “experiences” to draw visitors back as the resort works to rebuild traffic
- Investors await the company’s full-year results due Feb. 24
Genting Singapore shares closed flat on Friday at S$0.73, fluctuating between S$0.725 and S$0.735 during the session. Around 33.6 million shares traded hands. The stock will resume trading on Monday following the weekend. 1
The flat finish is significant, highlighting how the stock remains stuck in a tight range. Investors are still debating if the Resorts World Sentosa turnaround is shifting from construction and shutdowns to consistent cash flow.
The company operates Resorts World Sentosa, one of Singapore’s two “integrated resorts” — casino complexes that combine hotels, meeting venues, and attractions. In such a tight duopoly, even slight changes in premium play or tourist demographics can have an immediate impact.
Resorts World Sentosa CEO Lee Shi Ruh is pushing for quicker turnover in attractions and more repeat visits, saying guests want “something new every two to three weeks.” She admitted, “It takes time to rebuild,” while outlining efforts to keep gamblers around longer by boosting food, drink, and social options. 2
The strategy aligns with a hefty construction pipeline. The Straits Times reported Genting is pouring resources into RWS 2.0, a S$6.8 billion expansion designed to boost the resort’s gross floor area by 50%. New attractions, luxury hotels, and lifestyle projects are all part of the plan, with a larger waterfront slated for 2030. 3
Regulators have added pressure. Singapore’s Gambling Regulatory Authority granted a provisional two-year casino licence renewal instead of the usual three, beginning Feb. 6, 2025, citing underperformance since the pandemic, iGamingBusiness reported. 4
Technically, the stock remains range-bound. Investing.com lists its 52-week range between S$0.66 and S$0.80, with analysts averaging a price target near S$0.878—though estimates vary considerably. 5
The downside is straightforward. If the refresh cycle doesn’t bring back mass-market tourists, or if VIP play remains inconsistent, the boost in earnings could be delayed beyond what the market expects. And cost overruns on a multi-year construction project would only add pressure.
Genting Singapore is set to report full-year results after the close on Feb. 24, according to a filing with the Singapore Exchange. Investors will focus on updates about project timelines, capital expenditure controls, and insights on the ongoing licence review. 6
