澳洲第二大賭場運營商Star Entertainment接受Salter Brothers的債務重組提議

(路透社)- 澳洲第二大賭場運營商Star Entertainment表示,已向投資集團Salter Brothers開放財務資料,以便進行一項高達9.4億澳元(約5.9億美元)的債務重組提議,這可能有助於避免公司的崩潰。

來自墨爾本的Salter Brothers專注於商業房地產資產的投資,包括酒店和幼兒園,這項提議將使資金緊張的Star能夠償還在漫長的行業低迷期間積累的大量債務,該賭場公司補充道。

此外,這也在尋求拯救該公司的金融機構之間形成了競爭壓力,這些金融機構希望以高利率貸款或潛在的股權份額來換取他們的支持。就在前一天,Star表示美國賭場公司Bally’s Corp已提出重組方案,可能會獲得該澳洲公司的50.1%股份。

Salter Brothers和Bally’s並未對路透社的評論請求作出回應。

Star此前曾表示,已收到一項高達9.4億澳元的債務重組提議,但未透露來自何方。在周二的兩段聲明中,Star確認Salter Brothers為該方,並補充說它“已與Salter Brothers Capital簽署獨占性和程序契約,涉及該重組提議”。

Star的一位發言人未對路透社的進一步評論請求作出回應。

由於受到損害的監管調查、與COVID-19相關的封鎖以及邊境關閉,加上債務成本上升,澳洲的賭場行業正面臨持續的低迷。

該公司的股票自上週一以來已停止交易,因為它未能在2月底的截止日期前簽署半年度賬目。董事會當時表示擔心公司能否履行近期的負債。

Star上週表示,將以5300萬澳元的價格將其在布里斯班新開賭場的50%股份出售給香港的遠東發展國際和周大福企業,該資產的建設成本據媒體報導達到36億澳元。

評論

Star Entertainment的情況突顯了澳洲賭場行業面臨的嚴峻挑戰。隨著行業的低迷和監管壓力加大,資金的獲取變得愈加困難。Salter Brothers的提議雖然提供了短期的解決方案,但長期而言,Star需要重新評估其商業模式和運營策略,以適應不斷變化的市場環境。若無法有效地管理和減少債務,未來的競爭力將受到影響,甚至可能面臨更嚴重的財務危機。

此外,這一事件也反映了投資者對賭場行業的信心動搖,尤其是在經歷了COVID-19大流行後,消費者行為和市場需求都發生了變化。未來,Star必須更加注重透明度和合規性,以重建市場信任。這不僅是對自身財務健康的考量,也是對整個行業信譽的維護。

A whimsical, artistic scene set in a classic Hong Kong cha chaan teng (茶餐廳): A charming cat sits comfortably at a small table, elegantly sipping a traditional Hong Kong-style milk tea from a delicate glass. The cat's fur is soft and expressive, and its posture is relaxed yet attentive, suggesting it is a regular at the tea shop. The restaurant interior is bustling yet cozy, adorned with retro posters, old ceiling fans, patterned floor tiles, and Formica tables reflecting the local culture. Sunlight streams through the window, casting warm highlights on the cat and creating a vivid play of shadows. Details include steaming milk tea cups, egg tarts and pineapple buns on the table, and waiters in classic uniforms moving in the background. The overall color palette is rich and atmospheric, blending nostalgia with the lively charm of Hong Kong. An ultra-realistic photograph of an Asian woman in the reference image, faithfully replicating my face and maintaining it 100%. A woman with a perfectly sculpted hourglass figure stands on the sand at sunset. She wears a white string bikini, measuring,+++ accentuating her curves with a well-defined waist, hips, and toned figure. Her skin is fair, smooth, and radiant.

She stands next to a large, ornate gold-framed mirror, perched upright on the sand, fully revealing her reflection. The reflection clearly emphasizes her silhouette, curves, and body proportions.

The lighting is cinematic and stunning, creating soft highlights on her skin and sharp shadow contrasts that enhance the shape of her waist, hips, and legs.

The background features a dusk sky with sunset tones of deep blue, purple, and orange, gentle clouds, and the silhouettes of palm trees.

A natural beach atmosphere, realistic textures, sharp focus on the woman's body and reflections, high detail, Ultra HD, artistic aesthetic, warm lighting, and low angle. Use the original face exactly as it is, without changing a details. A stunning, very fit female model with a sun-kissed, glowing tan (hyper-realistic, high-sheen skin texture).

Setting & Composition

• Pose: Confident, classic, slightly leaning into the prop, looking directly at the camera with a bright, genuine smile. Three-quarter body shot.
Style & Lighting
• Lighting: Dramatic, high-key, professional studio lighting with a strong single light source to create deep shadows and extreme highlights, especially catching the sheen on the model's skin. The lighting emphasizes a sultry, glamorous mood.
