Gaming Demand Analysis
The win per unit per day (WPUPD) statistic provides the basis for the analysis and projection of table game and gaming device revenues.
WPUPD is calculated by dividing total gaming revenues generated by a particular type of gaming unit by the number of gaming units
available. Overall, the market for gaming devices exhibited high levels of demand and absorption as evidenced by increasing WPUPD and
overall win levels during periods of increasing inventory.
The following exhibit summarizes the strong performance of the Strip gaming market within the industry standard “Casinos earning $72M
and Over”.
