MGM Resorts (MGM) to Post Q3 Earnings: MGM China to Hold Key
Read MoreHide Full Article
MGM Resorts International (MGM - Free Report) is scheduled to report third-quarter 2023 results on Nov 8, 2023, after market close. The company’s performance is likely to have gained from the robust MGM China performance, international expansion, and solid sports betting and iGaming prospects.
MGM China Likely to Drive Growth in Q3
Increased business volume and travel activity at MGM China bode well for the company. Management is optimistic about MGM China’s prospects, backed by strength in premium mass. In second-quarter 2023, it witnessed high contributions from MGM China due to the removal of COVID-19-related travel restrictions and a rise in visitation. The trend is likely to have continued in third-quarter 2023.
Our model predicts MGM China quarterly revenues to surge 791.2% year over year to $779.7 million. We estimate MGM China Casino, Rooms, Food and Beverage as well as Entertainment, Retail and Other revenues to increase 818.7%, 100.7%, 0.7% and 36.8% year over year to $646.1 million, $14.0 million, $116.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively.
On the flip side, we suggest Las Vegas Strip and Regional operations’ revenues to decline 12.5% to $2,013.6 million and 16% to $818.6 million, respectively.
