\"\"<\/a> WASHINGTON \u2013 Vice Chair Kathryn Isom-Clause, and Associate Commissioner E. Sequoyah Simermeyer of the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) released the Fiscal Year 2018 Gross Gaming Revenue numbers. FY 2018 revenues total $33.7B, an overall increase of 4.1% over FY 2017.
\nThe GGR for FY 2018 is the highest in Indian gaming history; and, unlike previous years, all of the NIGC\u2019s administrative regions experienced positive growth in FY 2018. The Portland Region showed the highest growth, with an 8.2% increase, followed by the Oklahoma City Region with a 7.3% increase. Graphics that show the growth across each of the NIGC Regions are available for download on the NIGC website.
\n\u201cThe GGR calculation process is an example of the partnership between tribes and the NIGC to ensure effective regulation for a successful tribal gaming industry,\u201d said Vice Chair Kathryn Isom-Clause. \u201cThese numbers reaffirm the industry\u2019s health as a stable economic driver for Indian Country,\u201d she said.
\nRevenues are calculated based on 501 independently audited financial statements, comprised of 241 federally recognized Tribes across 29 States. The GGR for an operation is calculated based on the amount wagered minus winnings returned to players.
\n\u201cThe annual GGR tells a positive story about Indian gaming\u2019s economic success and the industry\u2019s ongoing contribution to a strong economy. It also tells the story of how collaboration among tribes, industry and the regulatory communities can build a strong reputation for reliability and integrity in the GGR calculation,\u201d said Commissioner Simermeyer.<\/p>\n
