PGCB Reports Record Revenue of Nearly $6.4 Billion from Legal Gambling in State Fiscal Year
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (“PGCB”) today reported that revenue generated during the combined Fiscal Year 2024/2025 of gaming it regulates reached a record level of $6,394,641,819.
This figure consists of the combined revenue from casino slot machines and table games, iGaming, sports wagering, video gaming terminals (VGTs) and fantasy sports contests. The amount eclipses the previous high for revenue in a fiscal year of $5,892,516,807 achieved in 2023/2024. Pennsylvania’s Fiscal Year runs from July 1 to June 30.
The resulting tax revenue from the play of these games in Fiscal Year 2024/2025 was $2,797,395,982. That figure eclipses the previous high for tax revenue in a fiscal year achieved during 2023/2024 of approximately $2.54 billion. The estimated amounts for revenue and taxes being reported are prior to any possible adjustments by the PA Department of Revenue.
Tax revenue from the various forms of gaming regulated by the PGCB is returned to Pennsylvanians in a number of ways. These include, but are not limited to:
- school property tax reduction on an owner’s primary residence;
- state, county, and local economic development, safety and recreational projects;
- support of the agricultural industry through support of horse racing; and,
- revenue toward the Commonwealth’s General Fund.
