Dr. Yaman Ege – Director of Semiconductor and Technology Supply Chain: MGM’s revenue diversification, especially the digital gaming and China exposure, is putting pressure on EPS. Nonetheless, the stock’s robust 52‑week performance signals that investors remain risk‑tolerant. Potential supply‑chain constraints in chip manufacturing and delayed ASML equipment capacity expansions could affect MGM’s long‑term digital transformation roadmap; therefore, a cautious stance with a focus on the modest 3‑5% upside relative to the price target appears prudent.
