Las Vegas Sands looks like the better bet compared to MGM Resorts in our opinion. Our conclusion is based on our detailed dashboard analysis, Is Las Vegas Sands Expensive Or Cheap After A -26.4% Move vs. MGM Resorts International?wherein we compare trends in key metrics for the two casino companies over the years to determine their relative valuations under the current circumstances.

Casino stocks have been trending downwards since the coronavirus outbreak was declared an epidemic in China, which subsequently led to a two-week shutdown in Macau. However, the containment efforts didn’t last long and the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11. The impact of coronavirus crisis and oil price war has been felt by nearly all sections of the global economy, resulting in a 20% decline in market indices. Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) stock is down by ~26% since early February, while its rival MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM) has declined 53% over the same period. The huge exposure of MGM Resorts to the low-growth region of Las Vegas has been a deterrent in this recessionary environment. In 2019, MGM Resorts generated nearly 50% of its total revenues from Las Vegas while Sands’ exposure stood at less than 10%.

Las Vegas Sands To Outperform MGM Resorts Leveraged By Its Leadership In Macau

• With the coronavirus pandemic triggering lockdowns in all major economies across the world, the current difference in stock declines has less to do with geographic exposure and more with the future growth prospects.
• Las Vegas Sands commands a 45% share of the mass baccarat market in Macau whereas MGM Resorts’ share stands at around 10%. (Note:Macau’s Mass Baccarat business has been growing at an annual rate of 20% despite the overall contraction of Macau Gaming Market.)
• Moreover, MGM’s sale of Bellagio, Circus Circus, MGM Grand, and Mandalay Bay has unlocked capital for the prospective integrated resort in Japan but, the current downturn increases risks associated with the new project.
• The long-term debt on MGM Resorts and Las Vegas Sands’ balance sheet of $15 billion and $12 billion, respectively, is fairly comparable.
• MGM’s high exposure to the U.S. casino market is a key obstacle in generating higher returns. Also, its long-term debt, which now stands higher than the stock’s market capitalization, has not been eased due to the lease-back transactions with various REITs.
• In 2019, Las Vegas Sands generated $3 billion of operating cash flow while MGM Resorts generated $1.8 billion. While both reported around $13 billion in total revenues.
• Overall, we expect Las Vegas Sands’ to continue to outperform MGM Resorts majorly due to its strong presence in Macau and higher operating cash flow.

Mandalay Resort Group (formerly Circus Circus Enterprises) was an Americanhotel and casino operator based in Paradise, Nevada. Its major properties included Mandalay Bay, Luxor, Excalibur and Circus Circus, as well as half of the Monte Carlo. In terms of market capitalization, it was one of the largest casino operators in the world. Its stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange with the ticker symbol 'CIR' and 'MBG'.

History[edit]

The company was originally known as Circus Circus Enterprises and originated with Jay Sarno's 1968 opening of the Circus Circus as well as a Circus Circus in Reno, which opened in 1978.

The company incorporated as Circus Circus Enterprises (CCE) in 1974 to purchase Circus Circus from Sarno at a time when the casino was experiencing financial difficulties. The original majority owners of CCE were William Pennington, a former oil lease speculator and William Bennett, a former furniture salesman and the manager of The Mint Las Vegas casino.

Circus Circus Enterprises purchased the Silver City Casino and Slots-A-Fun Casino^[1] in 1979 for $30 million, then refurbished both the interior and exterior.^[2]

The company went public in 1983 and traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The company's properties found success in the 1980s offering a Las Vegas experience to families subsequently experimented upon by its competitors. Its converted Circus Circus (originally developed for the upmarket) and later Excalibur properties offered gaming opportunities for adults and separate non-gambling games and theme-park-style experiences for underage visitors under the same roof.

In 1983, Circus Circus purchased the Edgewater Hotel and Casino in Laughlin, Nevada for $17 million.^[3][4] The next year, the company bought the neighboring Colorado Belle casino from Advanced Patent Technology and John Fulton for $4 million.^[5][6][7] The company planned to move the unprofitable Colorado Belle to make room for an expansion of the Edgewater.^[7]

The group subsequently developed the Excalibur in 1990, the Luxor in 1993 and the Mandalay Bay in 1999 for which the group was renamed.

The group entered into a joint venture in 1993 with Don Carano of Eldorado in Reno to develop and build Reno's largest and tallest megaresort titled Silver Legacy. The $350 million hotel opened on July 28, 1995. Circus Circus Enterprises held a majority stake in that Reno resort.

Circus Circus Tunica opened on August 29, 1994. It was rebranded in 1997 as Gold Strike Tunica and given a more upscale theme. The total cost for the remodel was estimated to be $125 million.^[8]

On March 20, 1995, Circus Circus Enterprises announced that it had agreed to acquire Gold Strike Resorts, a closely held budget casino owner and operator based in Jean, Nevada, in a deal valued at more than $600 million.^[9] At the time of the acquisition, Gold Strike Resorts owned the Gold Strike Hotel and Gambling Hall, Nevada Landing Hotel and Casino, Railroad Pass Hotel and Casino and 50% of the under-construction Monte Carlo Resort and Casino.^[10] The acquisition did not include the original Gold Strike near Boulder City, because the owners wanted to pass it on to their children.^[11]

In 1995, Circus Circus purchased the Hacienda from Archon Corporation.^[12] By this time, the Hacienda was dwarfed by the many new megaresorts that were being built, in particular the Luxor, which had just been recently completed. On December 10, 1996, the Hacienda was closed to the public after 40 years, and imploded later that month. This implosion was broadcast on the Fox Network as a part of their New Year's Eve 1996 telecast. Despite the implosion, parts of the old resort still stood, due to the building not falling into its footprint, but toppling into its parking lot. The next day a wrecking crew was brought in to bring down the remaining parts. In March 1999, it was replaced by the Mandalay Bay.

The group was also a partner with Mirage Resorts on the 1996 opening of the nearby Monte Carlo Resort and Casino.

Circus Circus Enterprises closed the Silver City Casino on October 31, 1999.

Following the completion of Mandalay Bay in 1999, the name of the company was changed to Mandalay Resorts Group.

On December 14, 1999, MotorCity Casino Hotel opened.

On May 23, 2002, the Mandalay Resort Group announced a second 1,122-room hotel tower, with a cost of at least $200 million. Construction began on the tower in September 2002. The name of the tower, THEhotel at Mandalay Bay, was chosen in September 2003. The tower opened on December 17, 2003.

On June 4, 2004, one of Mandalay's largest competitors, MGM Mirage, announced a bid to acquire it for $68 per share plus assumption of debt. The stock closed at $60.27 per share on June 4. Although the proposal was announced after the close of trading on June 4, the volume of trading in Mandalay Resort Group stock on that day was quadruple the normal, with the stock closing at $60.27 per share. The ensuing negotiations between the two companies included at one point an announcement that the Mandalay board was rejecting the offer because of antitrust concerns. On June 15, 2004, however, both companies' boards approved a revised offer of $71 per share. The agreement called for MGM Mirage to pay $4.8 billion and to assume $2.5 billion in debt. The transaction was completed on April 26, 2005 for $7.9 billion.

MGM executives were confident that antitrust regulators would not require the sale of any of the two companies' properties.^[13] Michigan law, however, forbade one company from owning multiple casinos, requiring the sale of either the MGM Grand Detroit or Mandalay's 54% stake in the MotorCity Casino.^[14] After some vacillation about which property to sell,^[15] Mandalay accepted a $525-million offer for its interest in MotorCity from Marian Ilitch, the casino's second largest shareholder.^[16]
