Macau casino concessionaire Sands China Ltd has announced the appointment of Patrick Dumont (pictured) as a non-executive director of the company with effect from August 8, 2025.
Mr Dumont, 51, will serve as a non-executive director “with no specific term of appointment, but is subject to retirement by rotation and re-election at the annual general meeting at least once every three years,” stated the company in a Friday filing.
He “will not receive any director’s fees/emoluments for services provided … in his capacity as a non-executive director,” it added.
He is currently president, chief operating officer and treasurer of the parent, U.S.-based casino firm Las Vegas Sands Corp. As of Friday, Las Vegas Sands controlled approximately 73.6 percent of the voting rights in Sands China.
Mr Dumont is set to assume the roles of chairman and chief executive of Las Vegas Sands in March next year, following the planned retirement of Robert Goldstein from March 1, 2026.
Las Vegas Sands reported net income of US$519 million in the second quarter this year, up 22.4 percent year-on-year. That was on net revenues that rose 15.0 percent year-on-year, to nearly US$3.18 billion.
Aside from operating casinos in Macau, the group also runs the Marina Bay Sands property in Singapore.
