LAS VEGAS – Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS) reported third quarter earnings that fell short of analyst expectations, as revenue declined from the prior year.

The casino operator posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.44, missing the consensus estimate of $0.54. Revenue came in at $2.68 billion, below analyst projections of $2.79 billion and down from $2.80 billion in the same quarter last year.

> "Although our reported financial results for the quarter reflected lower than expected hold in Singapore and the impact of disruption from our ongoing development work at the Londoner in Macao, we continued to execute our strategic objectives during the quarter," said Robert G. Goldstein, chairman and CEO.

Revenue at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore fell to $919 million from $1.02 billion a year ago, impacted by low hold on rolling play that negatively affected adjusted property EBITDA by $78 million.

In Macao, net revenue declined slightly to $1.77 billion from $1.79 billion in Q3 2023. The company noted that visitation to Macao remains below pre-pandemic levels as the recovery continues.

Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA dropped to $991 million from $1.12 billion in the prior year period.
