Wynn Resorts (WYNN): Assessing Valuation After Special Update on Wynn Al Marjan Island Growth Prospects

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Wynn Resorts (WYNN) has called a special investor update to walk through plans for Wynn Al Marjan Island in the UAE, putting fresh attention on how this new integrated resort could shape the company’s next growth phase.

See our latest analysis for Wynn Resorts.

At around $127 per share, Wynn’s recent 1 day share price return of 1.33 percent and strong year to date share price return of 51.77 percent suggest momentum is building again. A 1 year total shareholder return of 33.85 percent points to investors steadily re rating its recovery and future growth pipeline, including the UAE project.

If this kind of resort led growth story interests you, it could be worth scanning beyond casinos and checking out auto manufacturers as another way to spot cyclical recovery ideas and potential re ratings.

Yet with the stock up sharply this year, trading near but still below analyst targets, the key question now is whether Wynn remains undervalued ahead of Al Marjan’s opening or if the market has already priced in that growth.

Most Popular Narrative: 9.9% Undervalued

With the narrative fair value sitting meaningfully above Wynn Resorts’ last close, the story frames Al Marjan and premium demand as central valuation drivers.

The imminent launch of Wynn Al Marjan Island, with first mover advantage and limited near term competition in a potentially multi billion dollar new market, is a major forward catalyst that is currently underappreciated by investors and could drive a meaningful step change in both consolidated revenue and EBITDAR.

Another Lens on Valuation

Looked at through its price to earnings ratio of 26 times against a fair ratio closer to 23 times and an industry average near 23.3 times, Wynn screens as expensive on this measure despite looking undervalued on narrative fair value. This raises the question of whether sentiment is already running ahead of fundamentals.
