Revenue Flat, EBITDA Declines
The company generated $2.86 billion in revenue for the quarter, remaining essentially flat compared to the previous year. However, adjusted EBITDA dropped 11% to $884 million, with the Las Vegas division experiencing the sharpest decline at nearly 19%, falling to $379 million.
The Las Vegas segment’s struggles overshadowed solid performance from Caesars’ regional properties, which posted growth in both net revenues and adjusted EBITDA.
CEO Addresses Performance Challenges
“Our regional portfolio delivered net revenues and adjusted EBITDA growth as a result of consistent operating trends and continued positive returns from our capital projects. Our Las Vegas segment’s adjusted EBITDA declined during the quarter due to lower city-wide visitation and poor table games hold. Volumes in our Caesars Digital segment were strong, driven by continued product improvements, while adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by lower-than-expected sports hold during September.”
Caesars CEO Tom Reeg noted the company’s digital segment showed strong volume growth thanks to product improvements, though profitability was affected by lower sports betting hold rates in September.
Debt Reduction and Shareholder Returns Continue
Despite the quarterly loss, Caesars maintained its financial discipline. For the first nine months of 2025, the company generated $8.57 billion in revenue and reduced total debt to $11.9 billion. The operator also continued its share buyback program, repurchasing 3.9 million shares for $100 million during Q3.
Year-to-date adjusted EBITDA reached $2.72 billion, down 4.2% compared to 2024.
Outlook Remains Positive
Reeg expressed confidence in a stronger fourth quarter performance, despite the current headwinds. The company remains committed to its dual strategy of debt reduction and returning capital to shareholders.
Caesars Entertainment operates one of the largest gaming and entertainment portfolios in the United States, with properties across Las Vegas, regional markets, and a growing digital presence through Caesars Sportsbook and online casino operations.
