Las Vegas Sands CEO: ‘When customers don’t show up, it’s a little problematic’

Patrick Dumont was speaking after a weak Q3 where net profit fell 28% to $352m, and adjusted property EBITDA dropped 16.4% to $1.12bn Las Vegas Sands CEO Patrick Dumont said weaker high-end customer activity in Macau and Singapore during Q3 2026 was temporary and that the quarter did not reflect the underlying earnings power of either market. Dumont said various global uncertainties hit tourism and spending during the quarter, with high-value patrons visiting less frequently. He said Sands remained confident in the long-term outlook for both markets and expected the business to benefit as those customers return.
