Actionable Insight ◆ Mixed

The revenue miss and EBITDA compression in Macau core properties (City of Dreams, Studio City) signal ongoing operational weakness, partially offset by Cyprus growth and aggressive buybacks. Watch for Q3 trends in Macau visitation and the phased opening of the REM hotel; the extended credit facility and debt refinancing reduce near-term liquidity risk but leverage remains high at ~6.8x net debt/EBITDA.

Executive Summary

Melco Resorts reported Q2 2026 revenue of $1.25B, down 6% YoY, and GAAP EPS of $0.06 (vs consensus $0.08). Adjusted Property EBITDA fell 20% to $303.8M, driven by weaker rolling chip and mass market table games in Macau. The company repurchased ~$120.6M in stock and extended its revolving credit facility, but the core Macau operations continue to face headwinds, making this a mixed report with a bearish tilt on fundamentals.
