Wynn Resorts struggles: Weak Macau tourism and storm risk threaten growth!

Wynn Resorts is under significant pressure in October 2025 as weaker-than-expected tourism numbers during China's Golden Week spook investors. These concerns are further compounded by the looming threat of Tropical Cyclone Matmo in Macau. With a sharp decline in attendance, major casino operators, including Wynn, face increased volatility.

The negative tourism data, combined with the weather risks, highlight the challenges faced by companies heavily invested in Asian gaming hubs. Analysts and investors are concerned about the future recovery in luxury travel and gaming demand, particularly in the dynamic Asian and Middle Eastern markets. These uncertainties have led to a noticeable decline in share prices.

Forecasts and financial figures

Despite the current difficulties, Wynn Resorts' expansive project, the Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort in the United Arab Emirates, remains on track. This $5 billion project is expected to be completed by 2027 and could provide an important source of revenue beyond Macau's weather- and visit-sensitive revenues.

The company's financial analyzes show positive forecasts for the coming years. By 2028, it is expected to report revenues of $8.0 billion and profits of $624 million, supported by an annual revenue growth rate of 4.6%. Currently, the profit value is $383.9 million, an increase of $240.1 million.

Market value and investor confidence

Analysts estimate Wynn Resorts' fair value at $132.56 per share, representing an upside potential of 11% from its current price. However, opinions within the Simply Wall St community show a wide range on fair value, ranging from $10 to $132.56 per share. The ongoing volatility in Macau remains a key risk for the company and could impact market opinions as well as Wynn's global ambitions.

The concurrent challenges of weak vacation demand and weather-related risks require investors to have strong confidence in the company's recovery and future growth. The evolution of the situation in Macau will be crucial to Wynn Resorts' future in this volatile market.
