Company Report

Sands China's Focus on the Mass Market Is Well Positioned Amid Macao's Long-Term Prospects

Sands China is a strong contender in the Macao gaming sector with a robust presence in mass, retail, and nongaming facilities, particularly in Cotai. The firm has the majority of its gaming tables in Cotai, a popular tourist spot in Macao. Cotai also has a critical mass of world-class integrated resorts that continue to take market share from casinos in the peninsula. Sands China used to place lower priority on the lower-margin VIP segment, which better positions it amid its regulatory risk. To catch up to the rising demand from the premium mass segment, Sands Cotai Central was renovated, expanded, and rebranded to the Londoner in phases through the second quarter of 2025. This will help defend its market share from its competitors.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Sands China is well positioned to benefit from gaming demand recovery in Macao, which will allow the company to restore its profitability meaningfully from 2024 onward.

Bears

Macao casinos face harsher license-renewal terms such as shorter license duration, a requirement of nongaming investment, and a 1% increase in gaming taxes.
