Nomura Securities reiterates a 'Buy' on Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ: WYNN) price target of $175.00.

Analyst, Harry Curtis, said, "Adjusting for low VIP hold and higher bad debt expenses, offset by higher mass hold, WYNN’s adjusted Macau EBITDA was ~$308m vs. consensus of $306m. WYNN is currently 55% reserved in Macau, and Q2 collections continue to be “very stable and normal.” Las Vegas was impacted by lower occupancy (79% vs. high 80% estimate). We are lowering our 2012 occupancy assumption to 83% vs. prior 87%, but maintaining ADR growth assumption of up 5%. Our Vegas RevPAR recovery thesis remains intact. Our 2012E/2013E EPS goes from $6.85/$7.73 to $6.18/$7.61."
