Las Vegas Sands
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Las Vegas Sands Corp. for these reasons:

  • The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 3.35, which indicates that it relies heavily on debt financing. This could pose risks, especially in a rising interest rate environment.
  • Las Vegas Sands Corp. reported earnings per share of $0.54, missing analysts' expectations of $0.58, which may raise concerns about its ability to meet future earnings targets.
  • The current ratio of 0.74 and quick ratio of 0.73 suggest that the company may face liquidity issues, as it has less than one dollar in current assets for every dollar of current liabilities.
  • Recent trading volumes have been inconsistent, with a significant drop from an average of 5,874,754 shares to 4,605,051 shares, indicating potential volatility in investor interest.
  • Market conditions and regulatory changes in the gaming industry could impact Las Vegas Sands Corp.'s operations and profitability, making it a riskier investment in uncertain times.
