July 31 (Reuters) -

MGM Resorts International beat Wall Street's second-quarter estimates on Wednesday, thanks to a strong recovery in Macau following the easing of pandemic-related restrictions last year.

Shares of the company were up 1.5% in extended trading.

Casino operators such as MGM and Wynn have seen increased traffic at their Macau gaming hubs, driven by a resurgence in travel and tourism spending in China, the world's second-largest economy.

Quarterly revenue at MGM China came in at $891 million, up 33% compared to last year.

MGM's total revenue rose 9.7% to $4.33 billion in the quarter through June, beating analysts' average estimate of $4.22 billion, Rocket Queen according to LSEG data.

The Nevada-headquartered company's quarterly adjusted profit per share of 86 cents also came ahead of Wall Street expectations of 62 cents. (Reporting by Anandita Mehrotra and Aishwarya Jain in Bengaluru; Editing by Tasim Zahid)
