What makes JSA different is what we measure — and what we refuse to gloss over.
Operators bring us in when the answer has to hold up — to the GM, to the board, to a tribal council, to lenders.
Proprietary methodologies, not repurposed frameworks
JSA's Free Play ROI model and triple-net slot floor calculation were built specifically for the economics of casino operations — not adapted from retail analytics or general marketing attribution. Both are proprietary, refined over two decades of live client engagements, and deliver output operators can act on immediately.
Honest analysis, even when it's uncomfortable
JSA does not build studies around a client's preferred conclusion. Our feasibility work is cited by investors and regulators precisely because it is conservative, documented, and defensible. The ±10% accuracy window on completed projects is a function of methodology, not luck.
20+ years of casino-specific experience
The gaming industry has its own economics, its own patron behavior dynamics, and its own reinvestment calculus. JSA has operated exclusively in this vertical since 2002. Our analysts have sat across the table from GMs, CFOs, tribal councils, and investment committees.
The right size for the work
JSA is a boutique firm by design. Clients work directly with the principal — not account managers or junior associates presenting someone else's work. Every recommendation is something JSA can stand behind with a named analyst and a documented rationale.
