The Indian gaming industry is growing rapidly again. In 2023, tribal gaming revenue reached an all-time high, hitting $41.9 billion according to the National Indian Gaming Commission.
Wipfli’s 2024 Indian Gaming Cost of Doing Business Report reveals how tribal casinos earned revenue and managed expenses. More than 132 tribal organizations in 18 states contributed their financial data to help us capture the financial state of the tribal gaming industry.
Now in its 26th year, the Cost of Doing Business Report is the only industry report of its kind. Because we get such robust responses, operators rely on it to benchmark their performance against tribal casinos across the country and by region and size.
The 2024 report contains detailed operating statistics related to revenue streams and expenses, including wages, food and beverage, sports betting and more. It also includes perspectives from gaming, finance and technology specialists at Wipfli.
