Q4 Estimates

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues stands at $1.03 billion, indicating growth of 49.8% from the year-ago reported figure.

Factors to Note

Wynn Resorts fourth-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from the gradual improvement in visitation, removal of authorized operational and capacity restrictions, and an increase in travel. The company’s to-be-reported quarter’s results are likely to reflect gains from robust sports betting expansion. The company anticipates solid revenue generation on the back of new product features and a unique marketing campaign.

The company’s third-party partnerships through agreements with the Detroit Lions, the Colorado Rockies and Cumulus Media bode well. The company collaborated with several engaging content creators to develop a unique sports-themed program. These efforts might have contributed to the company’s to-be-reported quarter’s performance.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter revenues from Las Vegas operations is pegged at $470 million, suggesting growth of 172.5% from the year-ago reported figure. The company’s Las Vegas operations are likely to have benefited from an increase in visitation, improving job scenarios and consumer spending environment. The consensus mark for net revenues from Wynn Macau is pegged at $357 million, suggesting growth of 96.3% from the year-ago comparable period.

The coronavirus pandemic continues to hurt the company’s performance. Cash burn on account of the coronavirus may have weighed on the fourth-quarter performance.
