Monarch Casino & Resort, Inc.MCRI
Consumer Discretionary

Operates Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno and Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk in Colorado, earning primarily from casino gaming, hotel rooms, and food and beverage. Casino gaming supplies most revenue, leaving the business concentrated in two regulated regional markets.

Owns and operates Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno and Monarch Casino Resort Spa Black Hawk in Colorado. Both properties combine casino gaming with hotel rooms, restaurants, bars, spas, pools, and meeting space; sportsbooks and state-limited mobile wagering extend the gaming mix.

Targets local residents, leisure travelers, and convention guests in Reno, while Black Hawk draws from the Denver and Boulder areas. Hands-on property management, customer service, cost control, and recurring upgrades to rooms, gaming equipment, dining, and amenities underpin execution.

Revenue is concentrated in the owned-property base and comes primarily from casino, food and beverage, and hotel operations. Results depend on discretionary travel and gaming demand, labor availability, competitive intensity, and maintaining state and local gaming licenses in Nevada and Colorado.
