A pattern of consumers buying lower-cost tickets for shows in Las Vegas affected Tix Corp. revenue in the second quarter. The Studio City discount ticket broker for shows and attractions in Las Vegas reported Monday net income of $530,000 (3 cents a share) for the quarter ending June 30, compared with net income of $1.6 million (9 cents) in the same period a year earlier. Revenue decreased 10 percent to $5.3 million. No analysts follow the company. Chief Executive Mitch Francis attributed the drop in revenue to the closure in April of a Cirque de Soleil show that had provided significant sales last year. “We also experienced recent trends in consumers purchasing lower-priced show and attraction tickets, which generate lower commissions and fees,” Francis said in a prepared statement. “Also of note is that producers are reporting that ticket sales are generally lower this year versus last year.” Shares closed down 30 cents, or 13.7 percent, to $1.90 on the over-the-counter market.
