Star Entertainment Faces Financial Collapse as Trading Paused

The casino operator is exploring last-minute funding options while grappling with severe cash shortages, regulatory issues, and declining revenues.

Star Entertainment entered a trading halt after failing to file its half-year financial results, raising doubts about its ability to continue operating.
The company is burning through $35 million per month, with just $79 million in cash reserves reported in January 2025.
Star is exploring potential liquidity solutions, including a $650 million refinancing offer and asset sales, but no deals have been finalized.
The company employs 8,000 people across three states, with its operations crucial to local economies and tourism industries.
Regulatory fines, allegations of money laundering, and operational challenges have contributed to Star's financial struggles, with voluntary administration increasingly likely.
