Trailing losses stay heavy at US$433.6 million
- On a trailing 12 month basis to Q3 FY 2025, Bally's reported a net income loss of US$433.6 million on US$2.5b of revenue, with basic EPS at a loss of US$7.69 across that period. This shows that the business is still firmly loss making despite the revenue scale.
- Bears point to the 48.8% annual growth in losses over the past five years and the current trailing 12 month loss to argue the business model is under pressure. The data here supports that concern, as losses of US$247.9 million in Q3 FY 2024 and US$228.4 million in Q2 FY 2025 sit alongside the latest Q3 FY 2025 loss of US$102.9 million, while basic EPS has stayed negative in every quarter shown.
Low 0.2x P/S against peers
- Bally's trades on a price to sales ratio of 0.2x compared with a peer average of 1.2x and a US Hospitality industry average of 1.5x. The dataset also shows a DCF fair value of US$51.63 against a current share price of US$12.11, highlighting a wide gap between market pricing and that discounted cash flow estimate.
- Supporters of a bullish view highlight this discount, and the numbers illustrate that the market price sits about 76.7% below the stated DCF fair value. The company is also flagged for 10% revenue growth over the last year on a trailing basis, although those same bullish arguments have to sit alongside the fact that net income remained a loss of US$433.6 million over the trailing 12 months and the business is shown as unprofitable in every quarter in the data.
Less than one year of cash runway
- The analysis notes that Bally's has less than one year of cash runway while also recording a trailing 12 month net loss of US$433.6 million and basic EPS loss of US$7.69, so funding capacity sits front and centre alongside the income statement picture.
- Skeptical investors highlight this limited cash runway together with the forecast that Bally's is expected to remain unprofitable for the next three years. That view is consistent with the history in the data, where every quarterly EPS figure from Q2 FY 2024 to Q3 FY 2025 is a loss and trailing 12 month net income has stayed negative between US$410.3 million and US$760.3 million across the periods shown.
