WYNN’s Q3 Earnings Estimates

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the third-quarter bottom line is pegged at $1.17, indicating a surge of 18.2% from 99 cents in the year-ago quarter. In the past 30 days, earnings estimates have remained stable.

For revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at $1.73 billion. The metric implies an increase of 3.8% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.

Let us look at how things might have shaped up in the quarter to be reported.

Factors to Note for WYNN’s Q3 Earnings Release

Wynn Resorts’ third-quarter results are likely to have been aided by increasing visitor numbers and demand, particularly in Las Vegas and Macau, along with higher gaming volumes and increased hotel occupancy. Strong activity in the mass casino segment, high direct VIP turnover, robust luxury retail sales and higher hotel revenues are expected to have aided the company’s results in third-quarter 2024. We expect revenues from Macau operations to have risen 4.5% year over year to $856.9 million.

Increased visitation in the Las Vegas market and strong contributions from food and beverage and rooms are likely to have supported the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter. Per our model, revenues from Las Vegas operations are expected to rise 6.3% year over year to $658.1 million.

However, the company’s results are likely to have been hurt by the dismal performance of Encore Boston Harbor. Per our models, Encore Boston Harbor revenues in the quarter-to-be-reported are likely to decline 3.3% year over year to $203.4 million.
