SJM HOLDINGS: ANNUAL RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Morgan Stanley: Macau's February gaming revenue exceeded expectations; selective approach recommended with Galaxy Entertainment (00027.HK) as top pick.
According to a JPMorgan research report, Macau's gross gaming revenue (GGR) in February increased by 4% year-on-year to MOP 20.6 billion, with average daily revenue reaching MOP 737 million, surpassing both market and the bank’s expectations. More importantly, driven by strong demand from premium customers in the latter part of the month, the average daily revenue in the last week of February reached approximately MOP 1 billion, compared to the relatively muted performance during the Lunar New Year holiday. However, the bank attributes the subdued Lunar New Year performance mainly to timing factors, noting that this year’s peak Spring Festival period occurred later than in previous years, rather than reflecting weak underlying demand. With the inclusion of February data, GGR for the first two months of the year recorded a 14% year-on-year growth, showing signs of recovery to pre-pandemic levels.
Macau's gross gaming revenue from lucky gambling reached MOP 20.627 billion in February, marking a year-on-year increase of 4.5%.
On March 1, according to data from the Macao Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, Macao's gross gaming revenue from幸运博彩 (lucky gambling) in February reached MOP 20.627 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 4.5%.

Morgan Stanley: Macau gaming stocks continue to see growth in cash flow and dividends, with a preference for Galaxy Entertainment Group (00027.HK) and Sands China (01928.HK).
Morgan Stanley's research report pointed out that despite ongoing hopes for a late spring recovery effect in Macau’s casinos, the performance during the Lunar New Year was moderate. Moreover, Morgan Stanley expressed concerns about profit pressures arising from promotional activities at various casinos. On the positive side, Macau’s gaming revenue has performed better than other Chinese consumer stocks, with no artificial intelligence-related risks. Additionally, continuous growth in cash flow and dividends has made valuations of Macau casino stocks attractive. Morgan Stanley noted that although casino operators emphasized that promotional activities have stabilized, similar claims were heard before, leading to a lack of confidence that industry profit margins have bottomed out. Although the early part of the Spring Festival holiday showed weakness, it rebounded later, and the total gaming revenue for this month is expected to record a year-on-year increase.
Macau recorded 15.54 million tourist arrivals during the nine-day Lunar New Year holiday, with a single-day record broken on the third day of the lunar new year.
The Macao Government Tourism Office announced that during the nine-day Lunar New Year holiday in Mainland China (from the 15th to the 23rd), Macao recorded a total of 1.554 million visitor arrivals, with average daily arrivals increasing by 5.5% year-on-year to 172,000. Notably, on the third day of the Lunar New Year (the 19th), single-day arrivals broke historical records, reaching 227,000. According to the Public Security Police Force, during the nine-day holiday period, Macao recorded a total of 5.967 million border crossings, averaging 663,000 per day, representing a 7.9% increase compared to last year’s Lunar New Year holiday. The border checkpoints at the Barrier Gate, Qingmao, Hengqin, and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge accounted for 90% of the total volume.
