Crown Resorts’ AGM update noted Perth gaming was up 16% year on year in the September quarter and non-gaming down -21%. Melbourne is closed, and a Sydney launch is up in the air. The broker is assuming January 1 for now.

But the broker notes the stock is trading at the lowest multiple of invested capital ever seen by an Australian casino, and below Star Entertainment ((SGR)) for the first time.

Buy retained.

Sector: Consumer Services.
