Genting Singapore posts Q4 net profit of $262 million

(REUTERS) - Genting Singapore said on Wednesday it swung to a net profit in the fourth quarter, helped by higher earnings from its casino in Singapore.

Genting reported net profit of $262 million in October to December, compared to a loss of $150.3 million a year ago. Its net profit for 2011 was $1.01 billion.

Resorts World at Sentosa made $398 million in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) last quarter, up from $384 million a year ago. Fourth-quarter EBITDA was also higher than the $375 million reported in July to September.

Genting had an EBITDA margin of 52 per cent and the firm will pay its first dividend of one Singapore cent per share, Genting said in a statement on Wednesday.
