For the quarter ended Dec. 31, Melco Crown reported a loss of US$ 89.7 million, compared with a loss of US$ 18.9 million, in the same quarter last year, according to CNN Money

Revenue rose 58 percent to US$ 400.2 million, missing analysts' forecast of US$ 447.8 million.

The company also said it had US$ 71.2 million in depreciation and amortization costs and US$ 15.4 million in interest expenses during the quarter.

For the full year, Melco Crown reported a loss of US$ 308.5 million, compared with a loss of US$ 2.5 million in 2008.

Revenue fell 6 percent to US$ 1.33 billion from US$ 1.42 billion.
