On June 5, Sands China fell 3.24% in regular trading, trading at HK$15.23/share, with trading volume of HK$40.95 million. The stock declined amid a broad selloff in the Macau gaming sector.
On the news front, Macquarie recently downgraded Sands China from Outperform to Neutral, cutting its target price by 21% to HK$16.7. The bank lowered its valuation basis from 12x forward EV multiple to 10x, aligning it with peers such as Wynn Macau and MGM China, citing growth expected to slow to mid-single digits. Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley flagged potential headwinds for June, projecting Macau gaming revenue to decline 1% YoY to MOP 20.8 billion due to World Cup-related disruptions and a higher comparison base, noting that revenue growth would be insufficient to offset rising cost pressures.
