What are the earnings per share (EPS) expectations for Q2 and how do they compare to analyst consensus?

EPS outlook – Q2 2024

The Wynn Macau Q2 release only mentions revenue guidance of $933 million (≈ 5.5 % YoY growth) and highlights a resurgence in VIP baccarat and non‑gaming income. The release does not disclose a specific earnings‑per‑share (EPS) figure or a forward‑looking EPS guidance for the quarter. Consequently, there is no disclosed EPS number to compare against analyst consensus in the material you provided.

Trading implications

Because the EPS estimate is missing, the key driver of the stock’s near‑term price action will be the revenue beat and the qualitative narrative (i.e., “gaming rebounds ahead of expectations”). Traders should therefore:

  1. Watch the actual EPS release – when Wynn publishes its Q2 earnings, compare the reported EPS to the consensus (which analysts typically range around $0.30–$0.35 EPS for the quarter, based on recent Refinitiv/FactSet consensus). A beat would likely reinforce the bullish sentiment reflected in the 70‑point sentiment score, while a miss could trigger a short‑term pull‑back despite the revenue beat.

  2. Use technical confirmation – WYNN has been trading above its 50‑day SMA and is near the mid‑range of its 200‑day channel. A clean beat on EPS (or even a modest miss with strong revenue) could push the stock above its recent resistance around $50‑$52, while a miss on both revenue and EPS would likely test support near $43–$45.

Actionable take‑away: Until the official EPS figure is released, position sizing should be modest and contingent on the upcoming earnings press release. Consider a long‑biased stance if the forthcoming EPS beats the consensus (i.e., > $0.35) and volume confirms a breakout above the short‑term resistance; otherwise, prepare to reduce exposure if EPS falls short of consensus even as revenue exceeds expectations, as the market may price in a “revenue‑vs‑profit” trade‑off. Monitoring the actual EPS figure will be the decisive catalyst for the next price move.
