Company Report

Las Vegas Remains Near Full Hotel Occupancy, While Sports Betting Revenue Continues to Ramp

As a result of the acquisition of the legacy Caesars business by Eldorado (closed July 2020) and its leading omnichannel presence, we estimate Caesars holds around 10% revenue share of the $66 billion domestic commercial casino gaming market. The acquisition roughly doubled the company’s US portfolio to about 50 properties while lifting its loyalty membership to over 60 million from 55 million. Caesars has realized over $1 billion in combined sales and cost synergies from its merger with Eldorado, representing around a 30% increase to pro forma 2019 EBITDAR. Before this recent combination, legacy Eldorado successfully integrated the Isle and Tropicana acquisitions in 2017 and 2018, respectively, with both deals driving about a 30% return on investment, based on our calculation.

Company Profile

Caesars Entertainment includes about 50 domestic gaming properties across Las Vegas (49% of 2023 EBITDAR before corporate expenses) and regional (48%) markets. Additionally, the company hosts managed properties and digital assets, the later of which produced marginal EBITDA in 2023. Caesars' US presence roughly doubled with the 2020 acquisition by Eldorado, which built its first casino in Reno, Nevada, in 1973 and expanded its presence through prior acquisitions to over 20 properties before merging with legacy Caesars. Caesars' brands include Caesars, Harrah’s, Tropicana, Bally’s, Isle, and Flamingo. Also, the company owns the US portion of William Hill (it sold the international operation in 2022), a digital sports betting platform.
