Boyd Gaming’s Q3 Net Income Declines Sharply

Boyd Gaming Corporation reported a steep year-over-year drop in third-quarter net income, though the decline reflects an accounting comparison rather than deteriorating operating performance. Net income attributable to the company for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, fell 91.3% to $124.9 million, or $1.71 per share, from $1.4 billion, or $17.81 per share, in the prior-year period. The earlier figure was inflated by a $1.4 billion after-tax gain from the sale of Boyd’s equity stake in FanDuel, completed in 2025.
