While Wynn’s ADR (average daily rate) growth in Las Vegas is higher than it was pre-pandemic, there seems to be “potential for continued robust growth,” the analyst stated. “We believe Wynn should have an almost 20% buffer/premium on rate relative to the rest of the market given incremental demand generated by a larger corporate/group presence,” he added.

“Wynn owns all of its real estate (other than Boston), providing differentiation vs peers and future optionality,” Tong further wrote.

WYNN Price Action: Shares of Wynn Resorts had risen by 2.58% to $109.17 at the time of publication on Thursday.
