Deep Analysis

Return on Equity (ROE) measures how much profit a company generates for each dollar of shareholders’ equity; a 90.5% ROE means LVS earned roughly 90.5 cents for every dollar of equity in the most recent period.

This is far above the sector median of 13.9%, placing LVS in the 95th percentile among its peers, indicating exceptional profitability relative to the industry. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter change shows a decline of 11.5% from the prior period’s 102.3% ROE, and no trend data exists for the last eight quarters. The combination of an extremely high ROE level with a recent decline suggests that while the company generates strong returns, the downward shift introduces risk that profitability may be fading. This mixed picture—very high current returns but a slipping quarter-over-quarter—does not contradict the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the metric’s strength is offset by its negative near-term momentum.
