Macao Gaming: MGM China and Wynn Macau’s DPS a Positive Surprise, Lifting Investors' Confidence

Following Galaxy’s special interim and final dividend offerings, MGM China and Wynn Macau have followed suit and both declared final dividends on March 21. We view this as a positive surprise, which came in at least one year earlier than our expectations, suggesting that management groups are confident in Macao’s gaming demand recovery. We maintain our assumption that industry gross gaming revenue will rise to 85% of 2019’s level in 2024, up from 63% in 2023. With that, we believe Macao casinos will record meaningful improvements in profitability and cash flows in 2024. We also expect Sands China to resume its dividend program in 2024, while Melco Resorts and SJM will likely be later in 2025 given the still-stretched balance sheet for both companies.
