Caesars Entertainment sells South African property
15 May 2019
"While Emerald Resort & Casino is a unique property, it receives limited benefit from the Caesars' Rewards network effect given its remoteness to other properties in our network," said Tony Rodio, CEO of Caesars Entertainment. "We're pleased to monetize this non-core asset in our portfolio, which will enable Caesars to sharpen its focus on other strategic markets."
Caesars Entertainment will continue to operate the property until the transaction closes, which is expected to be in the third quarter of 2019, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
