Company Report

MGM Resorts: Digital Update Targets Notable Long-Term Share Gains, Which Might Be a Tough Bet

Entain’s Dec. 4 update on digital gaming company BetMGM, of which no-moat MGM Resorts International owns 50%, included in-line 2023 results but optimistic goals for the long term, in our view. We don’t plan to adjust our $55 fair value estimate for MGM; we view the shares as undervalued, offering investors an opportunity to own a company with a leading physical and digital presence in U.S. gaming.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

We expect MGM to be awarded the only urban Japanese gaming concession due to its strong experience operating leading resorts in Las Vegas and its successful record of working with partners.

Bears

The majority of cash flow for MGM comes from the Las Vegas region, which has lower regulatory barriers, margins, and ROICs than Macao.

Company Profile

MGM Resorts is the largest resort operator on the Las Vegas Strip with 35,000 guest rooms and suites, representing about one fourth of all units in the market. The company's Vegas properties include MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Park MGM, Luxor, New York-New York, and Bellagio. The Strip contributed approximately 74% of total EBITDAR in 2022. MGM also owns U.S. regional assets, which represented 31% of 2022 EBITDAR (MGM's Macao EBITDAR was negative in 2022). MGM's U.S. sports and iGaming operations are currently a high-single-digit percentage of its total revenue. The company also operates the 56%-owned MGM China casinos with a new property that opened on the Cotai Strip in early 2018. Further, we estimate MGM will open a resort in Japan in 2030.
