Based on UBS' channel checks, Macau's average daily GGR for the first ten days of May (including the May Golden Week) was about MOP780 million, flat YoY, thanks to a lower VIP hold. At theoretical VIP hold of 3-3.3%, UBS estimated average daily GGR would have reached MOP850-900 million, representing YoY growth of 10-15%. Among segments, mass GGR average daily run-rate grew 17-20% MoM, while VIP volumes lifted 18-22% MoM, at VIP hold of 2-2.3%. UBS noted that the market expected average daily GGR of about MOP701 million for the remaining 21 days of May in order for full-month May average daily GGR to reach around MOP727 million, implying YoY growth of 6.3%. Now, Macau gaming stocks are trading at about 8.3x 2026E EV/EBITDA, 0.7SD below its two-year average.
