By Steve Green, Las Vegas Sun
Gaming operator Tropicana Entertainment Inc. of Las Vegas on Friday posted a second quarter loss of $1.6 million on net revenue of $165.1 million.
The company said the overall results are not comparable to previous periods since the company’s big Atlantic City property is not included in the comparable quarter for 2009.
Tropicana Entertainment Inc. is controlled by investor Carl Icahn.
The company, which in March emerged from the Tropicana Entertainment LLC bankruptcy, has Tropicana casinos in Atlantic City and Laughlin, as well as the River Palms casino in Laughlin, the MontBleu casino resort on Lake Tahoe and riverboat casinos in Evansville, Ind., Baton Rouge, La., Vicksburg, Miss., and Greenville, Miss.
