AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

Caesars is a gaming and hospitality operator with properties in 18 states and online operations across 42 jurisdictions in North America. In fiscal 2023, the year ended 2023-12-31, it earned $786.0M and diluted EPS of $3.64. Then it swung to losses: fiscal 2024 net income was -$278.0M and diluted EPS -$1.29, while fiscal 2025 net income was -$502.0M and diluted EPS -$2.42. The latest filed quarter, fiscal Q2 2026 ended 2026-06-30, had $3.0B of revenue but a net loss of $62.0M and diluted EPS of -$0.30. Revenue growth is only 2.96%, so this is not a fast grower. The balance sheet is the chief worry: FairStock calculates D/E of 7.30 and an Altman Z-Score of 0.11, which points to heavy leverage and a thin solvency cushion. FairStock's calculated ROCE is just 4.01%, and ROE is -10.38%. On the positive side, trailing free cash flow is $606.0M, a 10.1% FCF yield against the $6.0B market cap. At the 2026-10-13 close of $29.47, FairStock's calculated P/B is 1.78 and EV/EBITDA is 9.14, while P/E of -12.98 is not meaningful because EPS is -$2.27. Its FairStock Score is 44/100. FairStock labels it a TURNAROUND, meaning a loss in the latest year after earlier profits. This is a leveraged, cyclical operator with real cash generation but no durable earnings. I would want a wider discount or evidence that losses are shrinking before treating it as a Graham-style bargain.

In plain English: Caesars runs casinos, hotels, and online sports betting. The business looks weak right now: it lost money in its latest year and latest quarter, and it carries a lot of debt. The share price does not look like a clear bargain: it is near the top of its 52-week range, the company is not currently profitable, though it still throws off cash.
