Wynn Resorts Tuesday reported year-over-year declines in operating revenue, net income, and adjusted earnings during the first quarter.
Operating revenues were $1.7 billion for the first quarter, a decrease of $162.5 million from $1.86 billion for the first quarter of 2024. Net income attributable to Wynn Resorts Limited was $72.7 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $144.2 million in 2024.

“Our first quarter results reflect continued strength throughout our business,” said Craig Billings, CEO of Wynn Resorts Limited. “In Las Vegas where we recently celebrated the resort’s 20th anniversary, the team delivered healthy results against a record prior-year comparison, which reflected the Las Vegas Super Bowl. In Macau, while VIP hold negatively impacted results, we held market share in our expected range and announced an increased dividend from Wynn Macau Limited, reflecting the strong free cash flow generated by the business.”
In addition, Billings said construction of its resort project in the United Arab Emirates, Wynn Al Marjan Island, continued to advance, with the hotel tower reaching the 47th floor.
During the first quarter of 2025, the company contributed $51.2 million of cash into the 40%-owned joint venture that is constructing the Wynn Al Marjan Island development in the UAE, bringing to date cash contributions to the project to $682.9 million. Wynn Al Marjan Island is expected to open in 2027.
