Net income attributable to MGM Resorts increased to $292 million from $49 million, and diluted earnings per share increased to $1.11 from $0.18. However, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA declined to $610 million from $648 million, while Adjusted EPS declined to $0.59 from $0.79, making the period mixed on the company’s reported profitability measures.

Casino revenue increased 17%, table games win increased 27%, and table games win % increased to 29.6 % from 22.9 %. Hotel indicators weakened, with room revenue down (2) %, ADR down (4) %, and RevPAR down (4) %, while occupancy was 93 % in both periods.
Regional Operations reported revenue of $924 million, down 4%, and Segment Adjusted EBITDAR of $280 million, down 9%. The reported same-store view was stronger: same-store revenue increased 3% to $904 million and Same-Store Segment Adjusted EBITDAR of $271 million was flat compared to the prior year quarter. MGM China revenue of $1.1 billion was relatively flat compared to the prior year quarter, but Segment Adjusted EBITDAR declined 15% to $257 million. The release identifies a $21 million increase in intercompany branding license fee expense over the prior year quarter.
Digital growth remained rapid, as MGM Digital revenue increased 20% to $196 million, although its Segment Adjusted EBITDAR loss increased to $31 million from a loss of $26 million. MGM also reported $23,097 of share of operating income from the BetMGM North America Venture. Capital allocation included repurchases of approximately 4 million shares for an aggregate amount of $164 million, with approximately $1.4 billion remaining under the April 2025 stock repurchase plan as of June 30, 2026. Management also highlighted MGM Osaka, on track for 2030 opening, and investment in Las Vegas luxury offerings.
