New Hampshire’s charitable gaming market generated $42.4 million in revenue during June, a 31% increase from the same month in 2025. The latest figures show continued growth following changes that expanded the types of gaming available at facilities across the state and increased the role of machine-based games.
Video lottery terminals (VLTs) accounted for $21.6 million of the June total, making them the largest source of revenue. Games of chance generated $10.4 million, up 17.3% year over year, while table games brought in $10.3 million after falling 56%.
The results covered 12 New Hampshire casinos, with Aces + Eights the only venue to report lower revenue than a year earlier.
VLTs Lead as Operators Post Gains
The Nash in Nashua recorded the highest June revenue at $13.5 million, representing a 60% increase from $8.4 million in June 2025. The Brook ranked second with $8.6 million, up 19.3%.
Other facilities also recorded substantial increases. Revo Casino in Keene reached $981,037 after rising 44.7%, while its Conway location increased 41.2% to $1.1 million. Revo Casino in Manchester generated $4.6 million, a 34.8% increase.
Lilac Club Casino reported $2.7 million, up 32.9%, while Revo Casino in Lebanon also reached $2.7 million following a 31.7% rise. Aces + Eights fell 20%, with revenue declining from $174,388 to $139,450.
The market’s recent performance follows regulatory changes that allowed larger gaming facilities, removed betting limits and introduced additional machine-based games. VLTs received authorization in 2025 and have since become a central part of the state’s gaming revenue.
A Charitable Model Under State Oversight
New Hampshire operates without commercial or tribal casinos. Instead, for-profit gaming operators run facilities for charitable nonprofits, with revenue distributed between charities, the state and operators.
The regulatory structure covers several forms of gaming. RSA 287-D governs games of chance, including blackjack, poker, roulette and craps. RSA 287-J addresses VLTs, while RSA 284 covers historical horse racing machines. RSA 287-E applies to bingo and Lucky 7 pull-tabs.
The New Hampshire Lottery & Gaming Commission oversees licensing, enforcement and revenue reporting. The charitable model also directs portions of gaming revenue toward education and responsible gaming programs, connecting gaming activity with funding for public and nonprofit purposes.
The state’s expansion has encouraged larger facilities and additional investment as operators develop more casino-style gaming floors. Revo Casino is also pursuing a major expansion effort in New Hampshire.
New Hampshire Senate Bill 542, which sought to restrict the number of game dates available to charities at gaming facilities, failed to advance during the 2026 legislative session and is currently dead.
June’s figures indicate that VLTs now provide the largest contribution to the state’s charitable gaming market, while gains across most facilities have pushed overall revenue substantially higher than a year earlier.
