HONG KONG--Macau casino operator Sands China Ltd. (1928.HK) reported Friday a 43% fall in 2015 net profit, mainly dragged down by a fall in casino revenues amid the overall market slowdown in the Macao gaming industry.

The Macau unit of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (LVS) said its net profit for the year ended Dec. 31 fell to US$1.46 billion from US$2.55 billion a year earlier, while net revenue dropped 28% to US$6.82 billion.

The company declared an interim dividend of HK$0.99 (US$0.128) per share.
