(US).- Wynn Resorts reported that its second-quarter earnings increased 57 percent, boosted by strong results in Las Vegas. The Las Vegas-based company said net income rose to USD 203.9 million, or USD 2 per share, from USD 129.8 million, or USD 1.28 per share, in the same quarter a year ago.

Earnings, adjusted for non-recurring costs and to extinguish debt, came to USD 2.11 per share. The average per-share estimate of analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for profit of USD 2.08.

Wynn Resorts said revenue climbed 6 percent to USD 1.41 billion from USD 1.33 billion, but missed Wall Street’s forecast of USD 1.44 billion.

Revenue in Macau rose 3 percent. Las Vegas revenue increased 12.5 percent, helped by a strong gain in casino revenue and higher revenue from rooms, food and drinks.


Wynn Resorts said its total outstanding debt at the quarter's end was USD 7.3 billion. This included USD 3.1 billion of Wynn Las Vegas debt, USD 2.3 billion of Wynn Macau debt and USD 1.9 billion at the parent company.

The company's shares declined USD 3.97 to USD 207 before the market open on Tuesday.
