As of October 17, 2026, MGM Resorts International scores 4.9 out of 10 on the Lemma Quality Score, a reading of mixed quality. In this band one or two pillars are usually holding the score up while others drag it down, which the breakdown below makes visible. Nothing in it comes from the share price or from forecasts: it is MGM Resorts International’s own reported numbers, scored pillar by pillar.
Ranked with the 179 Consumer Discretionary companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 47th percentile, in the lower half of the group, above the bottom quarter. The median across the group is 5.0, and the top quarter begins at 6.1, so MGM Resorts International is in line with the typical company here.
MGM Resorts International’s profitability score is 5.6 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 5.1 among 176 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is above the group and the 54th percentile. Middling returns are common and not a flaw in themselves, though they leave less slack when costs rise or demand softens.
MGM Resorts International’s solvency score is 5.1 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 5.9 among 141 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is below the group and the 41st percentile. An average solvency reading suggests debt is present but manageable, the normal state for a company that borrows to fund its operations.
MGM Resorts International’s growth score is 3.6 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 4.0 among 149 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is in line with the group and the 44th percentile. Weak growth means revenue and earnings have been flat or shrinking against peers, which can be cyclical or a sign of a market that is maturing.
On efficiency, MGM Resorts International scores 4.9, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 6.2 across 170 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it below them, at the 31st percentile. Efficiency near the median says the operation is neither unusually lean nor unusually capital hungry.
Predictability scores 5.1 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 178 Consumer Discretionary companies is 5.0, so MGM Resorts International is in line with its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 52nd percentile. Consistency near the median is typical, and it is worth checking whether the swings came from the business itself or from one-off items.
Profitability at 5.6 is MGM Resorts International’s best pillar and growth at 3.6 its weakest. The 2.0 point gap between them is worth keeping in mind when reading the overall. A profitability lead usually reflects something durable in the business model rather than a good year. Slow growth limits how fast the business can compound, even when everything else is in order.
Of everything that could lift MGM Resorts International’s score, efficiency matters most. Bringing it up to the 6.2 median of Consumer Discretionary companies would take the overall from 4.9 to roughly 5.1. The weights add up to 100 points (profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and MGM Resorts International has a reading on every pillar.

Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.
This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.

No. Quality and valuation are separate questions, and a good business at the wrong price is still a bad purchase. Score the business here, then price it with a DCF you control.
