Delaware Casinos Record Lower Net Revenue Across Video Lottery and Table Games in September 2026
Delaware’s three licensed casinos produced a combined $34.4 million in net casino revenue during the period from September 1 through September 28 2026 which represents a 5.4 percent drop compared with the same stretch in 2025 and the figures break down into separate categories that together paint a clear picture of the month’s performance.
Revenue Totals and Year-over-Year Comparison
The overall net casino revenue figure incorporates both video lottery terminals and table games while the data comes directly from official monthly reports that track proceeds and wins across Delaware Park, Bally’s Dover, and Harrington Raceway & Casino. Observers note that the 5.4 percent decline occurred even though the reporting window covered 28 days which matches the length of the prior year’s comparison period so the change reflects genuine movement rather than a calendar difference.
Video Lottery Net Proceeds Show Modest Reduction
Video lottery net proceeds reached $30.81 million after falling 4.7 percent from the equivalent September window in 2025 and this category continues to account for the bulk of the total revenue generated by the three properties. Those who monitor these numbers point out that video lottery terminals remain the primary driver of casino income in Delaware yet the latest monthly figures reveal a consistent downward shift that aligns with broader patterns seen in other reporting periods throughout the financial year.
Table Games Experience Larger Percentage Drop
Table-games win came in at $3.59 million which marks an 11.3 percent decrease from the same 28-day stretch in 2025 and although this segment represents a smaller share of overall revenue the sharper decline pulled the combined total lower than it otherwise would have been. Experts have observed that table game results can fluctuate more noticeably month to month because player volumes and game mix both influence the final win amount yet the September 2026 outcome still fits within the documented range of historical variation for these venues.
Distribution Across the Three Licensed Properties
Delaware Park, Bally’s Dover, and Harrington Raceway & Casino together form the complete set of state-licensed casino operations and the aggregated $34.4 million figure reflects activity at all three locations without separate breakdowns released in the initial monthly summary. People who follow state gaming reports understand that each property contributes to the statewide total while the combined presentation allows for quick assessment of overall industry health during the September period that extends into early October 2026.
Context Within Ongoing Financial Year Tracking
The September results feed into the larger financial year 2027 monitoring process that state officials maintain through regular updates on video lottery net proceeds and table games revenue distribution and those updates appear on the Delaware Lottery website where detailed monthly data sets remain available for review. The current period’s numbers therefore serve as one data point among many that together illustrate how revenue has moved since the start of the fiscal cycle.
Looking Ahead to October Reporting
October 2026 figures will provide the next comparison point once released and industry participants already watch for whether the September decline continues or reverses when the full 31-day month concludes. Because the September window ended on the 28th the transition into October leaves a short gap before new data arrives yet the pattern established so far gives analysts a baseline against which future releases can be measured.
Conclusion
The September 1–28 2026 results show Delaware’s three casinos posting $34.4 million in combined net revenue with video lottery at $30.81 million and table games at $3.59 million and the documented percentage declines of 5.4 percent, 4.7 percent, and 11.3 percent respectively supply a factual snapshot of performance during that specific window. These numbers stand ready for comparison once October data arrives and the same sources that published the current monthly figures will continue to track progress throughout the remainder of the financial year.
