Ohio’s seven racinos posted their best February revenue numbers ever from video lottery terminals (VLTs) last month, retaining $114.4 million from what visitors put into the 10,000-plus machines.
The Ohio Lottery published data Tuesday showing the racinos’ VLT revenue was up both 13.8% over the $103.6 million collected in February 2022 and 3.7% over the $110.8 million this January, a longer month with three additional days for gambling.
The $114.4 million was the highest statewide revenue figure since the $118 million generated by the machines last July. The number of devices provided on the gaming floors has been modestly shrinking, meanwhile, so the average revenue per day per VLT of $396 last month represented the highest level since April 2021.
