Red Rock Resorts (RRR) Q3 2023 Earnings
Did RRR Beat Earnings? Q3 2023 Results
Yes. Red Rock Resorts reported Q3 2023 earnings of $0.60 a share on Nov 7, 2023, beating the $0.48 consensus estimate by 25.0%. Revenue was $411.6M against a $411.4M estimate.
Red Rock Resorts delivered a stronger-than-expected bottom line in the third quarter of 2023, with diluted EPS of $0.60 coming in 25.00% above the $0.48 consensus estimate, even as the company navigated modest top-line softness and a meaningful rise in interest expense. Net revenues slipped 0.7% year over year to $411.61 million, barely edging past the $411.36 million consensus. The primary drag on the quarter was casino revenue, which declined to $272.75 million from $282.39 million a year earlier, though non-gaming categories provided a partial offset, with food and beverage, room, and other revenues each posting year-over-year gains. A sharply higher interest expense burden of $45.50 million, up roughly $11.20 million from the prior-year period, weighed on net income, which fell 28.3% to $68.42 million. Adding to the cautious tone, the company's highly anticipated $780 million Durango Casino and Resort, a key near-term growth catalyst, saw its opening pushed back to December 5 as portions of the property required additional time to complete.
- Non-gaming revenue growth in food and beverage, room, and other categories partially offset casino revenue softness
- Higher interest expense of $45.5 million vs. $34.3 million in prior year significantly impacted net income
- Write-downs and other charges of $15.1 million vs. $3.9 million in prior year weighed on operating income
