BYD’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, with an average surprise being 9.1%.
Trend in the Estimate Revision of BYD
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings per share (EPS) is pegged at $1.55, indicating a rise of 2% from $1.52 reported in the year-ago quarter.
For revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at nearly $865.8 million. The metric suggests a decline of 9.9% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.
Let’s take a look at how things have shaped up in the quarter.
Factors Likely to Shape Boyd Gaming’s Q3 Quarterly Results
Boyd Gaming’s third-quarter 2025 performance is expected to reflect steady demand across its core markets, continued operating discipline and benefits from its strengthened balance sheet. Robust play from core customers, improving retail trends and a stable promotional environment likely supported the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
In the Midwest and South segment, performance is likely to have remained steady. The second quarter marked the region’s strongest results in nearly three years, aided by continued momentum at Treasure Chest and resilient local demand. These trends are expected to have persisted into the third quarter, although the absence of calendar tailwinds and some normalization in unrated play could have limited upside. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues from the Midwest and South segment is projected at $522.9 million compared with $522.4 million reported in the prior-year quarter.
We expect muted Las Vegas room demand, renovation-related disruptions and inflationary cost pressures to have weighed on Boyd Gaming’s third-quarter performance. A decline in average daily room rates across the Las Vegas Valley and a generally softer destination travel environment likely impacted visitation levels, particularly at properties such as The Orleans. Despite this, strong play from core and retail customers within the Las Vegas Locals segment is expected to have provided a partial offset, supported by continued job growth and a more affordable cost of living in Southern Nevada. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues from Las Vegas Locals operations is projected at $210.4 million compared with $211.9 million reported in the prior-year quarter.
Macroeconomic headwinds and near-term industry pressures are likely to have weighed modestly on the company’s third-quarter performance. Inflationary costs, competitive labor markets and softer summer room demand in Las Vegas may have constrained margin expansion. Property renovations — particularly the disruptive phase at Suncoast — could also have temporarily impacted traffic in the third quarter.
