Las Vegas Sands reports Q3 2026 results with dividend hike and stock repurchase
Las Vegas Sands announced its third‑quarter 2026 financials, posting net revenue of $3.22 billion and net income of $352 million, or $0.48 per share. The company repurchased $950 million of common stock and its board approved a 20% increase in the annual dividend to $1.44 per share for 2027. Management said it remains confident in long‑term growth in Singapore and Macau despite the weaker results.
Why it matters
The earnings miss and revenue decline may weigh on the share price, as noted by analysts who cut the price target (Susquehanna lowered it to $51 from $63). The higher dividend and continued share buyback provide additional return of capital to shareholders, which could support the stock’s yield appeal.
