CZR’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in one of the trailing four quarters and missed on three occasions, the average surprise being negative 206.8%.
Trend in the Estimate Revision of CZR
For the quarter to be reported, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for loss per share has widened to 10 cents from a loss of 2 cents in the past seven days. In the prior-year quarter, CZR reported a loss per share of 4 cents.
For revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at nearly $2.89 billion. The metric indicates a rise of 0.5% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.
Let us take a look at how things have shaped up in the quarter.
Factors Likely to Shape CZR’s Q3 Quarterly Results
Caesars Entertainment’s Las Vegas operations are likely to have remained a strong contributor to revenues in third-quarter 2025. Higher occupancy levels, rising average daily room rates and the impact of recent hotel renovations at properties such as the Versailles Tower in Paris and the Colosseum Tower at Caesars Palace have supported gains.
The company’s ability to push pricing across not just rooms but also food, beverage and amenities like cabanas implies that non-gaming revenue growth continued to bolster results. In addition, major events like the World Series of Poker are expected to have boosted hotel stays, casino activity and dining, helping to drive overall performance in Las Vegas.
Digital operations also stand out as a growth engine. Sports betting and iGaming have been expanding at a healthy pace, aided by stronger hold rates, growth in parlay wagers and customer engagement improvements from product upgrades. The Caesars Palace Online platform continues to gain traction and the rollout of the Horseshoe-branded app should have provided incremental lift during the quarter. Strategic acquisitions, such as WynnBet’s Michigan operations and sports tech firm ZeroFlucs, have further enhanced product offerings and market positioning, likely supporting top-line momentum in the third quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter Regional revenues is pinned at $1.5 billion, implying a 2.4% year-over-year increase. Meanwhile, the consensus estimate for Managed and Branded revenues is pegged at $69 million compared with $68 million reported in the year-ago period. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for total Las Vegas revenues is pegged at $1 billion, indicating a 5.4% decline from the prior-year quarter’s figure.
Despite healthy revenue streams, profitability is likely to have been pressured by ongoing cost headwinds. Elevated labor expenses in Las Vegas, tied to union contracts, combined with construction disruptions at key regional properties like New Orleans, might have weighed on margins. Regional markets also continued to face competitive challenges, such as new openings in Indiana and weaker group business in Reno, which reduced flow-through to earnings. While the company maintained cost discipline, these factors, along with higher sponsorship and tax burdens in certain jurisdictions, are likely to have limited bottom-line expansion in the third quarter.
