Bill Hornbuckle

Bill Hornbuckle leads MGM Resorts International as CEO, overseeing one of the world's most iconic gaming and hospitality companies. MGM's Las Vegas Strip portfolio reads like a who's who of legendary casino-resorts: Bellagio, Aria, Vdara, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, and Park MGM. The company also operates major regional U.S. casinos including Borgata in Atlantic City, MGM National Harbor in Maryland, and MGM Springfield in Massachusetts. MGM's growth strategy extends far beyond the Las Vegas Strip. BetMGM — a 50/50 joint venture with Entain plc — is one of the leading U.S. online sports betting and iGaming platforms, competing with FanDuel and DraftKings for market share in America's rapidly growing legal sports betting market. MGM China operates five casinos in Macau (the world's largest gambling market by revenue). And MGM is developing a massive $10+ billion integrated resort in Osaka, Japan — the first of its kind in the country. MGM has executed an innovative real estate strategy, selling its Las Vegas properties to VICI Properties (a gaming REIT) in sale-leaseback transactions, converting from a property owner to an asset-light operator. Key stock drivers include Las Vegas visitor volumes and convention bookings, Macau gaming revenue recovery, BetMGM market share and path to profitability, Japan resort development progress, regional casino performance, and the overall health of consumer discretionary spending on entertainment and travel.
