Boyd Gaming (BYD) Could Be 27% Undervalued As Sky River Growth Comes Into View

Simply Wall St · 3d ago

Boyd Gaming (BYD) is back in focus after a recent pullback, with the stock down about 10% over the past month and roughly 19% over the past 3 months.

Zooming out, Boyd Gaming’s 1-day and 7-day share price returns of 2.47% and 4.96% only partially offset a weaker patch, with the stock down over recent months and a 1-year total shareholder return that trails its 3-year and 5-year gains. This suggests that momentum has faded from earlier periods as investors reassess both growth prospects and risk.

Boyd Gaming now trades well below both analyst targets and intrinsic value estimates. After this pullback, does the gap signal mispricing, or is it a fair reset in line with the new risk profile?

Most Popular Narrative: 27% Undervalued

Against Boyd Gaming’s last close of $70.41, the most followed narrative pegs fair value at $95.94. The recent pullback sits inside a much wider valuation gap built on long term projects, fee income and capital returns.

The managed tribal partnership at Sky River, with raised 2026 EBITDAR guidance to US$113 million to US$117 million and a planned Phase 2 adding a hotel, F&B outlets, a spa and an event center by early 2028, offers a visible pipeline of fee based revenue and earnings with limited capital intensity.

See why 8 investors see Boyd Gaming as 27% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of $95.94 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, a prolonged drag from softer destination demand in Las Vegas or heavier construction disruption at projects like Suncoast could weaken the Boyd Gaming thesis.
