Smith pointed to stronger core and retail customer play, especially across the Midwest and South. That segment benefited from recent investments, better customer activity, and easier comparisons against weather disruption in the prior year.<\/p>\n<p>Online also helped the quarter. Boyd said iGaming operations and third-party market access agreements supported digital growth, in line with trends from the second half of 2025. Managed and Other revenue also improved through higher management fees from Sky River Casino in northern California.<\/p>\n<p>Southern Nevada told a different story. CFO Josh Hirsberg said the Las Vegas locals business was down by about $6.5 million year on year. Smith linked the pressure to weaker destination traffic, with the Orleans seeing the largest impact.<\/p>\n<p>Suncoast renovation work added more drag. Construction shifted into busier parts of the casino floor during the quarter, and Boyd expects that disruption to continue until the project finishes late in Q3.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"Mirax Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mirax-Casino.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Mirax Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Mirax Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>350% or 5BTC + <strong>150 Spins!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.

A hotel room renovation at the Orleans should finish later in 2026, followed by a Suncoast room project in the summer. Boyd also plans to start a wider Orleans modernization in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>The company added new restaurant concepts at Gold Coast during the quarter, with more work planned at Fremont, Aliante, and Sam\u2019s Town.
