Outperform

-

-

SkyCity Entertainment's result met guidance and FY25 earnings guidance was reiterated. Leverage should peak in FY25 at 2.7x before sloping off, Macquarie notes, and is below the debt covenant. The broker expects dividends in FY27.

The broker continues to see FY25 as the low-point for earnings, with growth projects supportive of earnings growth in FY25-26, more than offsetting impacts from mandatory carded play in FY26 and beyond.

The outlook is improving, most regulatory issues have been cleared, and as such Macquarie continues to see a re-rating pathway, but it will take time. Target falls to NZ$1.70 from NZ$1.85, Outperform retained.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 9.63 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 10.00 cents.
