Caesars Entertainment, Inc. (CZR)

Executive Summary

Caesars Entertainment is the largest U.S. regional casino operator and one of the two anchor names on the Las Vegas Strip, with approximately 53 properties across 18 states plus a fast-growing digital business that finally turned the corner on profitability in 2024. At $27.80 the equity trades at roughly $5.7 billion of market cap on top of approximately $24 billion of consolidated net debt — meaning the enterprise value is roughly 80 percent debt and 20 percent equity, which is the single most important fact to internalize before underwriting this name. CZR is, at its core, a leveraged equity stub on top of a real, cash-generative casino operating business. Get the deleveraging right and the equity is a multibagger; get it wrong and the equity is impaired.
