Caesars Entertainment Preliminary Q4 Results Fail to Meet Expectations
The company noted that the announced financials were not final and there was still room for improvement as management retains high hopes for a successful 2024

Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ: CZR) provided a preliminary view of its fourth-quarter results in a Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), indicating that the company might miss analysts’ EBITDA and sales projections. Likely expecting this development, the company recently announced a new tender offer, hoping to solidify its financial position.
Most Metrics Fell Short of Projections
Caesars Entertainment estimates its Q4 revenue will range between $2.815 billion and $2.835 billion. However, this falls shy of the $2.89 billion anticipated by Wall Street. On the famed Las Vegas Strip, where Caesars is the second-largest operator, revenue is projected to reach between $1.088 billion and $1.094 billion. These results mark a decline from the $1.154 billion reported a year earlier.
The company forecasts a Q4 loss ranging from $4 million to $157 million, with EBITDA estimated between $920 million and $940 million. On the other hand, analysts set their sights on a higher figure at $957 million. It’s crucial to note that these preliminary results are subject to potential adjustments as Caesars finalizes its Q4 financial statement closing process.
Despite the broader challenges, Caesars witnessed a spike in Strip occupancy during Q4, reaching 97.9%, up from 95.5% the previous year. However, the operator faced headwinds in its table games, experiencing a 1% drop in Q4 and a decline in table hold from 23% to 21% year-on-year, contributing to its subpar financials.
Caesars Retains Significant Growth Potential
Even though this Q4 preview may be a bit underwhelming, many analysts remain positive, highlighting the strength of Caesars’ management team and the potential for significant free cash flow in a normalized environment. Despite ongoing challenges, the company’s digital segment shows substantial promise and may deliver sustained value in the coming year.
In a recent strategic move, Caesars initiated a cash tender offer for its outstanding 6.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2025, set to expire on 30 January 2024. The gambling giant hopes to redeem any untendered notes, highlighting its focus on capital structure optimization and debt management. This move should give the company a stable foundation to pursue further growth in the coming year.
While Caesars Entertainment faces challenges in its preliminary Q4 results, analysts are eyeing the potential for long-term value. The detailed financial update later this month will provide a more comprehensive insight into the company’s performance in the final quarter of 2023. Despite short-term setbacks, Caesars remains a world leader in the gambling sector and should be well-equipped to tackle emerging challenges.
