NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 — Organization and Business of Company
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (“LVSC”), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2022, and have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period have been included. The interim results reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of expected results for the full year.
Operations
Macao
From 2020 through the beginning of 2023, the Company’s operations in Macao were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao government's policy regarding the management of COVID-19 and general travel restrictions was relaxed in late December 2022 and early January 2023. Since then, visitation to the Company’s Macao Integrated Resorts and operations have improved.
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao increased approximately 243.6% and decreased approximately 39.7%, during the eight months ended August 31, 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019 (pre-pandemic), respectively. The Macao government also announced gross gaming revenue increased approximately 779.7% and decreased approximately 31.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively. Additionally, gross gaming revenue increased approximately 305.3% and decreased approximately 41.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Singapore
From 2020 through early 2022, the Company’s operations in Singapore were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Vaccinated Travel Framework (“VTF”), launched in April 2022, facilitated the resumption of travel and had a positive impact on operations at Marina Bay Sands. During February 2023, any remaining COVID-19 border measures were lifted.
Visitation to Marina Bay Sands continues to improve since the travel restrictions have been lifted. The Singapore Tourism Board (“STB”) announced total visitation to Singapore increased from approximately 3.7 million in 2022 to 10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, while visitation decreased 29.2% when compared to the same period in 2019.
Summary
While the disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the potential future impact, if any, on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition is uncertain. However, the Company has a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity in place, including total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5.57 billion and access to $1.50 billion, $2.24 billion and $431 million of available borrowing capacity from the Company’s LVSC Revolving Facility, 2018 SCL Revolving Facility and 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The Company believes it is able to support continuing operations and complete the Company’s major construction projects that are underway.

Development Projects
New York
On June 2, 2023, the Company acquired the Nassau Coliseum from Nassau Live Center, LLC and related entities, which included the right to lease the underlying land from the County of Nassau in the State of New York (the “Nassau Coliseum Transaction”). The Company purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such casino license.
Singapore
In April 2019, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd. (“MBS”) and the STB entered into a development agreement (the “Second Development Agreement”) pursuant to which MBS has agreed to construct a development, which will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats (the “MBS Expansion Project”). The Second Development Agreement provides for a total minimum project cost of approximately 4.50 billion Singapore dollars (“SGD,” approximately $3.29 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The estimated cost and timing of the total project will be updated as the Company completes design and begins construction. The Company expects the total project cost will materially exceed the amounts referenced above from April 2019 based on current market conditions due to inflation, higher material and labor costs and other factors. The Company has incurred approximately $1.08 billion as of September 30, 2023, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site. On March 22, 2023, MBS and the STB entered into a supplemental agreement, which further extended the construction commencement date to April 8, 2024 and the construction completion date to April 8, 2028, and allowed for changes to the construction and operation plans under the Second Development Agreement.
The Company is nearing completion of the renovation of Towers 1 and 2 of Marina Bay Sands. This renovation has introduced world class suites and other luxury amenities at a cost estimated at approximately $1.0 billion upon completion. The Company also announced the next phase with the renovation of the Tower 3 hotel rooms into world class suites and other property changes at an estimated cost of approximately $750 million. These renovations at Marina Bay Sands are substantially upgrading the overall guest experience for our premium customers, including new dining and retail experiences, and upgrading the casino floor, among other things. These projects are in addition to the previously announced plans for the MBS Expansion Project.
Macao
The Company has commenced work on Phase II of the Londoner Macao, which includes the renovation of the rooms in the Sheraton and Conrad hotel towers and the addition of new attractions, dining, retail and entertainment offerings. These projects have a total estimated cost of $1.0 billion.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management has evaluated the accounting standards that have been recently issued, but not yet effective, or those proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these financial statements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 2 — Accounts Receivable, Net and Customer Contract Related Liabilities
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable is comprised of casino, hotel, mall and other receivables, which do not bear interest and are recorded at amortized cost. The Company extends credit to approved casino patrons following background checks and investigations of creditworthiness. Business or economic conditions, the legal enforceability of gaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant events in foreign countries could affect the collectability of receivables from patrons in these countries.
Accounts receivable primarily consists of casino receivables. Other than casino receivables, there is no other concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration of its credit risk in casino receivables is mitigated substantially by its credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures, and also believes there are no concentrations of credit risk for which a provision has not been established. Although management believes the provision is adequate, it is possible the estimated amount of cash collections with respect to accounts receivable could change.
The Company maintains a provision for expected credit losses on casino, hotel and mall receivables and regularly evaluates the balances. The Company applies standard reserve percentages to aged account balances, which are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due. The reserve percentages are based on estimated loss rates supported by historical observed default rates over the expected life of the receivable and are adjusted for forward-looking information. The Company also specifically analyzes the collectability of each account with a balance over a specified dollar amount, based upon the age of the account, the patron's financial condition, collection history and any other known information and adjusts the aforementioned reserve with the results from the individual reserve analysis. The Company also monitors regional and global economic conditions and forecasts in its evaluation of the adequacy of the recorded reserves. Account balances are written off against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.

Macao Concession
On December 16, 2022, the Macao government announced the award of six definitive gaming concessions, one of which was awarded to Venetian Macau Limited (“VML,” a subsidiary of Sands China Ltd.), and on January 1, 2023, VML entered into a ten-year gaming concession contract with the Macao government (the “Concession”). Under the terms of the Concession, VML is required to pay the Macao government an annual gaming premium consisting of a fixed portion and a variable portion. The fixed portion of the premium is 30 million patacas (approximately $4 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The variable portion is 300,000 patacas per gaming table reserved exclusively for certain types of games or players, 150,000 patacas per gaming table not so reserved (the mass rate) and 1,000 patacas per electrical or mechanical gaming machine, including slot machines (approximately $37,200, $18,600 and $124, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023).

On December 30, 2022, VML and certain other subsidiaries of the Company, confirmed and agreed to revert certain gaming equipment and gaming areas to the Macao government without compensation and free of any liens or charges in accordance with, and upon the expiry of, VML’s subconcession. On the same day, VML and the Macao government entered into a handover record (the “Handover Record”) granting VML the right to operate the reverted gaming equipment and gaming areas for the duration of the Concession in consideration for the payment of an annual fee. The annual fee is calculated based on a price per square meter of reverted gaming area, being 750 patacas per square meter in the first three years and 2,500 patacas per square meter in the subsequent seven years (approximately $93 and $310, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The price per square meter used to determine the annual fee will be adjusted annually based on Macao’s average price index of the corresponding preceding year. The annual fee is estimated to be $13 million for the first three years and $42 million for the following seven years, subject to the aforementioned adjustment.
On January 1, 2023, the Company recognized an intangible asset and financial liability of 4.0 billion patacas (approximately $496 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), representing the right to operate the gaming equipment and the gaming areas, the right to conduct games of chance in Macao and the unconditional obligation to make payments under the Concession. This intangible asset comprises the contractually obligated annual payments of fixed and variable premiums, as well as fees associated with the above-described Handover Record. The contractually obligated annual variable premium payments associated with the intangible asset was determined using the maximum number of table games at the mass rate and the maximum number of gaming machines that VML is currently allowed to operate by the Macao government. In the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, the noncurrent portion of the financial liability is included in “Other long-term liabilities” and the current portion is included in “Other accrued liabilities.” The intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the Concession, being ten years.
Amortization expense for all intangible assets was $17 million and $7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $51 million and $16 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The estimated future amortization expense for all intangible assets is approximately $17 million for the three months ending December 31, 2023, and $67 million, $55 million, $50 million, $50 million for the years ending December 31, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively, and $248 million thereafter.
Nassau Coliseum
On June 2, 2023, the Company closed on its acquisition of the Nassau Coliseum, an entertainment arena in the State of New York. The Company paid an aggregate amount of $241 million, consisting of $221 million upon closing and a $20 million deposit made in 2022. The purchase of the Nassau Coliseum, which continues to operate following the closing of the sale, primarily included the fixed assets related to the arena and the right to lease the underlying land from the owner, the County of Nassau in the State of New York. This transaction resulted in the recognition of $92 million of goodwill. The Company purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such casino license.

SCL Senior Notes
On July 26, 2023, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) upgraded the credit rating for the Company and Sands China Ltd. (“SCL,” a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company) to BBB–. As a result of the upgrade, the coupon on each series of the outstanding SCL senior notes decreased by 0.25% per annum effective on the first interest payment date after July 26, 2023.
2018 SCL Credit Facility
On May 11, 2023, SCL entered into an amended and restated facility agreement (the “A&R Facility Agreement”) with respect to certain provisions of the 2018 SCL Credit Facility, pursuant to which lenders have (a) extended the termination date for the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) commitments and U.S. dollar commitments of the lenders that consented to the waivers and amendments in the A&R Facility Agreement (the “Extending Lenders”) from July 31, 2023 to July 31, 2025; (b) extended to (and including) January 1, 2024, the waiver period for the requirement for SCL to comply with the requirements that SCL ensure (i) the consolidated leverage ratio does not exceed 4.0x and (ii) the consolidated interest coverage ratio is not less than 2.5x; (c) amended the definition of consolidated total debt such that it excludes any financial indebtedness that is subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the A&R Facility Agreement (including the $1.0 billion subordinated unsecured term loan facility made available by the Company to SCL); (d) amended the maximum permitted consolidated leverage ratio as of the last day of each of the financial quarters ending March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, and subsequent financial quarters to be 6.25x, 5.5x, 5.0x, 4.5x, and 4.0x, respectively; and (e) extended to (and including) January 1, 2025, the period during which SCL’s ability to declare or make any dividend payment or similar distribution is restricted if at such time (x) the Total Commitments (as defined in the A&R Facility Agreement) exceed $2.0 billion by SCL’s exercise of the option to increase the Total Commitments by an aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion and (y) the consolidated leverage ratio is greater than 4.0x, unless, after giving effect to such payment, the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents of SCL on such date and (ii) the aggregate amount of the undrawn facility under the A&R Facility Agreement and unused commitments under other credit facilities of SCL is greater than $2.0 billion. The amendments with respect to the Extended Commitments took effect on July 31, 2023. Pursuant to the A&R Facility Agreement, SCL paid a customary fee to the Extending Lenders that consented.

The Extending Lenders’ HKD commitments total HKD 17.63 billion (approximately $2.25 billion at exchange rates in effect on May 11, 2023) and U.S. dollar commitments total $237 million, which together represent 100% of the total available commitments under the A&R Facility Agreement.
As of September 30, 2023, SCL had $2.24 billion of available borrowing capacity under the 2018 SCL Revolving Facility comprised of HKD commitments of HKD 15.86 billion (approximately $2.03 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) and U.S. dollar commitments of $213 million.
2012 Singapore Credit Facility
As of September 30, 2023, MBS had SGD 589 million (approximately $431 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) of available borrowing capacity under the 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, primarily consisting of a banker’s guarantee for SGD 153 million (approximately $112 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) pursuant to a development agreement.
During 2021, the Company amended its 2012 Singapore Credit Facility, which, among other things, extended to March 31, 2022, the deadline for delivering the construction cost estimate and the construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project. The Company is in the process of reviewing the budget and timing of the MBS expansion due to various factors. As a result, the construction cost estimate and construction schedule were not delivered to the lenders by the March 31, 2022 deadline. As of September 30, 2023, there was SGD 3.69 billion (approximately $2.70 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) left of total borrowing capacity, which is only available to be drawn under the Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility after the construction cost estimate and construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project are delivered to lenders. The Company does not anticipate material spend related to the MBS Expansion Project prior to the delivery of these items to the lenders.
Debt Covenant Compliance
As of September 30, 2023, management believes the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. The Company amended its 2018 SCL Credit Facility to, among other things, waive SCL’s requirement to comply with financial covenants through January 1, 2024, which include a maximum leverage ratio of total debt to trailing twelve-months adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, calculated in accordance with the A&R Facility Agreement.

Dividends
On August 16, 2023, the Company paid a dividend of $0.20 per common share as part of a regular cash dividend program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $153 million as a distribution against retained earnings.
In October 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per common share (a total estimated to be approximately $153 million) to be paid on November 15, 2023, to stockholders of record on November 7, 2023.
Share Repurchases
On October 16, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized increasing the remaining share repurchase amount of $916 million to $2.0 billion and extending the expiration date from November 2024 to November 3, 2025. Repurchases of the Company's common stock are made at the Company's discretion in accordance with applicable federal securities laws in the open market or otherwise. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company's financial position, earnings, legal requirements, other investment opportunities and market conditions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, no shares of its common stock were repurchased. All share repurchases of the Company's common stock have been recorded as treasury stock.

Note 6 — Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 18.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 15.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on the Company’s Singapore operations and a 21% corporate income tax rate on its domestic operations.
The Company’s operations in Macao are subject to a 12% statutory income tax rate, but in connection with the 35% gaming tax, VML and its peers received a corporate income tax exemption on gaming operations through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, VML requested a corporate tax exemption on profits generated by the operation of casino games in Macao for the new gaming concession period effective from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2032, or for a period of corporate tax exemption that the Chief Executive of Macao may deem more appropriate. Additionally, the Company entered into a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao

government in April 2019, effective through June 26, 2022, providing an annual payment as a substitution for a 12% tax otherwise due from VML shareholders on dividend distributions paid from VML gaming profits. The Company is evaluating the timing of an application for a new shareholder dividend tax agreement. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, anticipates similar tax agreements for the new Concession period; however, there is no assurance such agreements will be entered into.
In accordance with interim accounting guidance, the Company calculated an estimated annual effective tax rate based on expected annual income and statutory rates in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. This estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to actual year-to-date operating results to determine the provision for income taxes.
Note 7 — Leases
Lessee
The Company has operating and finance leases for various real estate (including leasehold interests in land) and equipment. Certain of these lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation, rental payments based on usage and rental payments contingent on certain events occurring (e.g., the Nassau Land Lease rental payments will increase in the event the Company is awarded a gaming license in New York). Certain of the Company’s leases include options to extend the lease term by one month to 10 years. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Nassau Coliseum
In conjunction with the Nassau Coliseum Transaction, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the County of Nassau in the State of New York, for the use and exclusive right to develop and operate assets on approximately 72 acres of land, including the Nassau Coliseum and other improvements thereon (the “Nassau Land Lease”), which commenced on June 2, 2023, and has a 99-year lease term. The Company is required to make annual rent payments in the amounts and at the times specified in the Nassau Land Lease agreement, including additional rent payments contingent on certain events occurring as defined in the agreement. As of September 30, 2023, the related right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and finance lease liability were $279 million and $201 million, respectively. Refer to “Note 3 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net” for further details on this transaction.
In the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, the Nassau Land Lease ROU asset is included in “Property and equipment, net” and the noncurrent portion of the related finance lease liability is included in “Long-term debt.” A one-time rent payment of $54 million was made under the finance lease liability within two business days of the lease term commencement date and is included in cash flows used in financing activities.
The future minimum lease payments are $1 million for the period ending December 31, 2023, $6 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2024 through 2027, and $1.77 billion thereafter.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amounts of the Company's assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value were immaterial.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivables, net, and accounts payable, had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments. The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash deposits, cash held in money market funds and U.S. Treasury Bills. U.S. Treasury Bills are held-to-maturity.
The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held or issued by the Company as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, using available market information.

Actual results could differ from these estimates; however, in the opinion of management, such litigation and claims will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Asian American Entertainment Corporation, Limited v. Venetian Macau Limited, et al.
On January 19, 2012, Asian American Entertainment Corporation, Limited (“AAEC” or “Plaintiff”) filed a claim with the Macao First Instance Court against VML, LVS (Nevada) International Holdings, Inc. (“LVS (Nevada)”), Las Vegas Sands, LLC (“LVSLLC”) and Venetian Casino Resort (“VCR”) (collectively, the “Defendants”) for 3.0 billion patacas (approximately $372 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), which alleges a breach of agreements entered into between AAEC and LVS (Nevada), LVSLLC and VCR (collectively, the “U.S. Defendants”) for their joint presentation of a bid in response to the public tender held by the Macao government for the award of gaming concessions at the end of 2001.
On March 24, 2014, the Macao First Instance Court issued a decision holding that AAEC’s claim against VML is unfounded and that VML be removed as a party to the proceedings. On May 8, 2014, AAEC lodged an appeal against that decision and the appeal is currently pending.
On June 5, 2015, the U.S. Defendants applied to the Macao First Instance Court to dismiss the claims against them as res judicata based on the dismissal of prior action in the United States that had alleged similar claims. On March 16, 2016, the Macao First Instance Court dismissed the defense of res judicata. An appeal against that decision was lodged by U.S. Defendants on April 7, 2016. At the end of December 2016, all the appeals were transferred to the Macao Second Instance Court.
Evidence gathering by the Macao First Instance commenced by letters rogatory, which was completed on March 14, 2019.
On July 15, 2019, AAEC submitted a request to the Macao First Instance Court to increase the amount of its claim to 96.45 billion patacas (approximately $11.96 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), allegedly representing lost profits from 2004 to 2018, and reserving its right to claim for lost profits up to 2022. On September 4, 2019, the Macao First Instance Court allowed AAEC’s amended request. The U.S. Defendants appealed the decision allowing the amended claim on September 17, 2019; the Macao First Instance Court accepted the appeal on September 26, 2019, and that appeal is currently pending.
On April 16, 2021, the U.S. Defendants moved to reschedule the trial because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao First Instance Court denied the U.S. Defendants’ motion on May 28, 2021. The U.S. Defendants appealed that ruling on June 16, 2021, and that appeal is currently pending.
The trial began on June 16, 2021. By order dated June 17, 2021, the Macao First Instance Court scheduled additional trial dates in late 2021 to hear witnesses who were subject to COVID-19 travel restrictions that prevented or severely limited their ability to enter Macao. The U.S. Defendants appealed certain aspects of the Macao First Instance Court’s June 17, 2021 order, and that appeal is currently pending.
On July 10, 2021, the U.S. Defendants were notified of an invoice for supplemental court fees totaling 93 million patacas (approximately $12 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) based on Plaintiff’s July 15, 2019 amendment. By motion dated July 20, 2021, the U.S. Defendants moved for an order withdrawing that invoice. The Macao First Instance Court denied that motion by order dated September 11, 2021. The U.S. Defendants appealed that order on September 23, 2021, and that appeal is currently pending. By order dated September 29, 2021, the Macao First Instance Court ordered that the invoice for supplemental court fees be stayed pending resolution of that appeal.

From December 17, 2021 to January 19, 2022, Plaintiff submitted additional documents to the court file and disclosed written reports from two purported experts, who calculated Plaintiff’s damages at 57.88 billion patacas and 62.29 billion patacas (approximately $7.18 billion and $7.72 billion, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). On April 28, 2022, the Macao First Instance Court entered a judgment for the U.S. Defendants. The Macao First Instance Court also held that Plaintiff litigated certain aspects of its case in bad faith.
Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from the Macao First Instance Court’s judgment on May 13, 2022. That appeal is fully briefed and remains pending with the Macao Second Instance Court.
On September 19, 2022, the U.S. Defendants were notified of an invoice for appeal court fees totaling 48 million patacas (approximately $6 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). By motion dated September 29, 2022, the U.S. Defendants moved the Macao First Instance Court for an order withdrawing that invoice. The Macao First Instance Court denied that motion by order dated October 24, 2022. The U.S. Defendants appealed that order on November 10, 2022 and on January 6, 2023, submitted the appeal brief, and that appeal remains pending.
On October 9, 2023, the U.S. Defendants were notified that the Macao Second Instance Court had invited Plaintiff to amend its appeal brief, primarily to separate out matters of fact from matters of law, and Plaintiff had submitted an amended appeal brief on October 5, 2023. The deadline for U.S. Defendants to respond is October 30, 2023.

On October 22, 2020, The Daniels Family 2001 Revocable Trust, a putative purchaser of the Company’s shares, filed a purported class action complaint in the U.S. District Court against LVSC, Sheldon G. Adelson and Patrick Dumont. The complaint asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and alleges that LVSC made materially false or misleading statements, or failed to disclose material facts, from February 27, 2016 through September 15, 2020, with respect to its operations at Marina Bay Sands, its compliance with Singapore laws and regulations, and its disclosure controls and procedures.
On January 5, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an order appointing Carl S. Ciaccio and Donald M. DeSalvo as lead plaintiffs (“Lead Plaintiffs”). On March 8, 2021, Lead Plaintiffs filed a purported class action amended complaint against LVSC, Sheldon G. Adelson, Patrick Dumont, and Robert G. Goldstein, alleging similar violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act over the same time period of February 27, 2016 through September 15, 2020. On March 22, 2021, the U.S. District Court granted Lead Plaintiffs’ motion to substitute Dr. Miriam Adelson, in her capacity as the Special Administrator for the estate of Sheldon G. Adelson, for Sheldon G. Adelson as a defendant in this action.
On May 7, 2021, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which on March 28, 2022, the U.S. District Court granted in its entirety. The U.S. District Court dismissed certain claims with prejudice, but granted Lead Plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint with respect to the other claims by April 18, 2022. On April 8, 2022, Lead Plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration and to extend time to file an Amended Complaint. The defendants filed an opposition to the motion on April 22, 2022.
On April 18, 2022, Lead Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint. On May 18, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint, and briefing was completed on July 8, 2022.
On August 8, 2023, the U.S. District Court denied Lead Plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration, and granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The U.S. District Court dismissed Lead Plaintiffs’ allegations pertaining to challenged statements that were made in 2016, 2017 and 2018, but allowed the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020 to proceed. On August 22, 2023, the defendants filed a motion for partial reconsideration, requesting that the U.S. District Court reconsider its denial of the motion to dismiss with respect to the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020. If the motion for partial reconsideration is

granted, this would result in dismissal of the second amended complaint. The defendants also moved, in the event the motion for partial reconsideration is not granted, for certification for interlocutory appeal of the U.S. District Court’s order allowing the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020 to proceed. The defendants simultaneously filed a motion for a stay pending adjudication of the motion for reconsideration, which requests a stay of all discovery and case deadlines. Lead Plaintiffs filed oppositions to both motions on September 5, 2023, and the defendants filed their replies on September 12, 2023. These motions are pending before the U.S. District Court.
This action is in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.
Turesky v. Sheldon G. Adelson, et al.
On December 28, 2020, Andrew Turesky filed a putative shareholder derivative action on behalf of the Company in the U.S. District Court, against Sheldon G. Adelson, Patrick Dumont, Robert G. Goldstein, Irwin Chafetz, Micheline Chau, Charles D. Forman, Steven L. Gerard, George Jamieson, Charles A. Koppelman, Lewis Kramer and David F. Levi, all of whom are current or former directors and/or officers of LVSC. The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, violations of Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and for contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act. On February 24, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an order granting the parties’ stipulation to stay this action in light of the Daniels Family 2001 Revocable Trust putative securities class action (the “Securities Action”). Subject to the terms of the parties’ stipulation, this action is stayed until 30 days after the final resolution of the motion to dismiss in the Securities Action. On March 11, 2021, the U.S. District Court granted the plaintiff’s motion to substitute Dr. Miriam Adelson, in her capacity as the Special Administrator for the estate of Sheldon G. Adelson, for Sheldon G. Adelson as a defendant in this action. This action is in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.

(1)Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of its operations with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and other financial information included in this Form 10-Q. Certain statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Operations
We view each of our Integrated Resort properties as an operating segment. Our operating segments in Macao consist of The Venetian Macao; The Londoner Macao; The Parisian Macao; The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao; and the Sands Macao. Our operating segment in Singapore is Marina Bay Sands.
Macao
From 2020 through the beginning of 2023, our operations in Macao were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao government's policy regarding the management of COVID-19 and general travel restrictions was relaxed in late December 2022 and early January 2023. Since then, visitation to our Macao Integrated Resorts and operations have improved.
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao increased approximately 243.6% and decreased approximately 39.7%, during the eight months ended August 31, 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019 (pre-pandemic), respectively. The Macao government also announced gross gaming revenue increased approximately 779.7% and decreased approximately 31.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively. Additionally, gross gaming revenue increased approximately 305.3% and decreased approximately 41.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Singapore
From 2020 through early 2022, our operations in Singapore were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Vaccinated Travel Framework (“VTF”), launched in April 2022, facilitated the resumption of travel and had a positive impact on operations at Marina Bay Sands. During February 2023, any remaining COVID-19 border measures were lifted. Airlift passenger movement has increased with a total of 38 million passengers having passed through Singapore's Changi Airport from January through August 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), an increase of 130% and a decrease of 16% compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Visitation to Marina Bay Sands continues to improve since the travel restrictions have been lifted. The Singapore Tourism Board (“STB”) announced total visitation to Singapore increased from approximately 3.7 million in 2022 to 10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, while visitation decreased 29.2% when compared to the same period in 2019.
Summary
While the disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the potential future impact, if any, on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition is uncertain. However, we have a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity in place, including total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5.57 billion and access to $1.50 billion, $2.24 billion and $431 million of available borrowing capacity from our LVSC Revolving Facility, 2018 SCL Revolving Facility and 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. We believe we are able to support continuing operations and complete our major construction projects that are underway.

Operating Results
Key Operating Revenue Measurements
Operating revenues at The Venetian Macao, The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao and Marina Bay Sands are dependent upon the volume of patrons who stay at the hotel, which affects the price charged for hotel rooms and our gaming volume. Operating revenues at Sands Macao are principally driven by the volume of gaming patrons who visit the property on a daily basis.
Management utilizes the following volume and pricing measures in order to evaluate past performance and assist in forecasting future revenues. The various volume measurements indicate our ability to attract patrons to our Integrated Resorts. In casino operations, win and hold percentages indicate the amount of revenue to be expected based on volume. In hotel operations, average daily rate and revenue per available room indicate the demand for rooms and our ability to capture that demand. In mall operations, base rent per square foot indicates our ability to attract and maintain profitable tenants for our leasable space.
The following are the key measurements we use to evaluate operating revenues:
Casino revenue measurements for Macao and Singapore: Macao and Singapore table games are segregated into two groups: Rolling Chip play (composed of VIP players) and Non-Rolling Chip play (mostly non-VIP players). The volume measurement for Rolling Chip play is non-negotiable gaming chips wagered and lost. The volume measurement for Non-Rolling Chip play is table games drop (“drop”), which is net markers issued (credit instruments), cash deposited in the table drop boxes and gaming chips purchased and exchanged at the cage. Rolling Chip and Non-Rolling Chip volume measurements are not comparable as they are two distinct measures of volume. The amounts wagered and lost for Rolling Chip play are substantially higher than the amounts dropped for Non-Rolling Chip play. Slot handle, also a volume measurement, is the gross amount wagered for the period cited.
We view Rolling Chip win as a percentage of Rolling Chip volume, Non-Rolling Chip win as a percentage of drop and slot hold (amount won by the casino) as a percentage of slot handle. Win or hold percentage represents the percentage of Rolling Chip volume, Non-Rolling Chip drop or slot handle that is won by the casino and recorded as casino revenue. Our win and hold percentages are calculated before discounts, commissions, deferring revenue associated with our loyalty programs and allocating casino revenues related to goods and services provided to patrons on a complimentary basis. Our Rolling Chip table games are expected to produce a win percentage of 3.15% to 3.45% in Macao and Singapore, and our Non-Rolling Chip table games have produced a trailing 12-month win percentage of 24.2%, 20.9%, 21.5%, 24.1%, 17.2% and 18.4% at The Venetian Macao, The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao, Sands Macao and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. Our slot machines have produced a trailing 12-month hold percentage of 4.3%, 3.9%, 4.0%, 6.0%, 3.3% and 4.0% at The Venetian Macao, The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao, Sands Macao and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. Actual win and hold percentages may vary from our expected win percentage and the trailing 12-month win and hold percentages. Generally, slot machine play is conducted on a cash basis. In Macao and Singapore, 10.5% and 11.7%, respectively, of our table games play was conducted on a credit basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
28


Hotel revenue measurements: Performance indicators used are occupancy rate (a volume indicator), which is the average percentage of available hotel rooms occupied during a period and average daily room rate (“ADR,” a price indicator), which is the average price of occupied rooms per day. Available rooms exclude those rooms unavailable for occupancy during the period due to renovation, development or other requirements (such as government mandated closure, lodging for team members and usage by the Macao government for quarantine measures). The calculations of the occupancy rate and ADR include the impact of rooms provided on a complimentary basis. Revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) represents a summary of hotel ADR and occupancy. Because not all available rooms are occupied, ADR is normally higher than RevPAR. Reserved rooms where the guests do not show up for their stay and lose their deposit, or where guests check out early, may be re-sold to walk-in guests.
Mall revenue measurements: Occupancy, base rent per square foot and tenant sales per square foot are used as performance indicators. Occupancy represents gross leasable occupied area (“GLOA”) divided by gross leasable area (“GLA”) at the end of the reporting period. GLOA is the sum of: (1) tenant occupied space under lease and (2) tenants no longer occupying space, but paying rent. GLA does not include space currently under development or not on the market for lease. Base rent per square foot is the weighted average base or minimum rent charge in effect at the end of the reporting period for all tenants that would qualify to be included in occupancy. Tenant sales per square foot is the reported comparable sales for the trailing 12 months divided by the comparable square footage for the same period. Only tenants that have been open for a minimum of 12 months are included in the tenant sales per square foot calculation.

Summary Financial Results
We continue to see positive financial results in the third quarter of 2023 due to the lift of COVID-19 restrictions in Macao beginning in late December 2022, as well as a 72.5% increase in visitation to Singapore during the third quarter of 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, driven by a 57.4% increase in airlift passenger movement during July and August 2023 (the latest statistics currently available) as compared to the same period in 2022.
Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $2.80 billion, compared to $1.01 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Operating income was $688 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to an operating loss of $177 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Net income from continuing operations was $449 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $380 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

In our experience, average win percentages remain fairly consistent when measured over extended periods of time with a significant volume of wagers, but can vary considerably within shorter time periods as a result of the statistical variances associated with games of chance in which large amounts are wagered.
Room revenues increased $219 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $186 million and $33 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, due to increased occupancy rates and ADR driven by increased visitation. Increased visitation at our Macao operations during the current period was due to the lifting of pandemic-related restrictions in Macao that began in December 2022 and the grand opening of The Londoner Macao in May 2023. Increased visitation to Marina Bay Sands during the quarter was due to an increase in airlift passenger movement in Singapore, as well as introducing new and elevated suites and rooms and other amenities at Marina Bay Sands throughout 2023.

(1)    During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, approximately 2,200 and 2,100 rooms, respectively, were available for use.
Food and beverage revenues increased $74 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Increased business volume across our food and beverage outlets and in banquet operations were in line with increased property visitation resulting in increases of $56 million and $18 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively.
Mall revenues increased $82 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $69 million in Macao, driven by a decrease in rent concessions granted to our mall tenants and an increase in turnover and overage rents, and $13 million at Marina Bay Sands, driven by an increase in overage and base rent.

(1)    Tenant sales per square foot is the sum of reported comparable sales for the trailing 12 months divided by the comparable square footage for the same period.
Convention, retail and other revenues increased $44 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to a $38 million increase at our Macao operations, primarily driven by a $17 million increase in ferry operations due to the resumption of ferry services in January 2023. Increased visitation to our Macao operations led to increases of $10 million in retail and other revenues (e.g., limo and spa) and $7 million in entertainment revenue. Included in retail and other revenues was a $12 million insurance recovery at our Macao operations due to Typhoon Saola in September 2023. A $6 million increase at Marina Bay Sands was driven primarily by increases of $3 million in convention revenue and $3 million in other revenues (e.g. museum, SkyPark and transportation).

Total operating expenses$2,107 $1,182 78.3 %
Operating expenses were $2.11 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $925 million compared to $1.18 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by increases of $693 million in casino expenses, $53 million in depreciation and amortization, $52 million in general and administrative expenses, $45 million in food and beverage expenses, $39 million in rooms expenses, $25 million in convention, retail and other expenses, and $18 million in development expenses.
Casino expenses increased $693 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases of $574 million and $46 million in gaming taxes at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, consistent with increased casino revenues. We also had increases in gaming tax rates of 1% in Macao and 3% in Singapore, and a 1% increase in value added tax in Singapore.
Room expenses increased $39 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was attributable to increases of $30 million and $9 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, driven by increased occupancy in Macao and higher costs associated with the new and elevated suites and rooms introduced at Marina Bay Sands during the year.
Food and beverage expenses increased $45 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $29 million and $16 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, primarily driven by increased food outlet and banquet operation volumes.
Convention, retail and other expenses increased $25 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily driven by increases of $21 million and $4 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. The increases were primarily driven by increases of $10 million in ferry operation expenses due to the resumption of ferry services in January 2023, $7 million in entertainment expenses due to increased event volume, $3 million in limo expenses, $2 million in convention expenses and $1 million in retail expenses.
Provision for credit losses was $3 million for three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $5 million decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in casino provisions in Singapore. The amount of this provision can vary over short periods of time because of factors specific to the patrons who owe us money from gaming activities. We believe the amount of our provision for credit losses in the future will depend upon the state of the economy, our credit standards, our risk assessments and the judgment of our employees responsible for granting credit.
34


General and administrative expenses increased $52 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increases of $31 million and $21 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, driven by increases in payroll and marketing costs, utilities and property taxes.
Development expenses were $44 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $26 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the costs were associated with our evaluation and pursuit of new business opportunities, primarily in New York, Texas and digital gaming related efforts. Development costs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation and amortization increased $53 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $32 million increase at Marina Bay Sands as a result of the completion of renovations that were placed into service during the second quarter and a $21 million increase at our Macao operations primarily as a result of accelerated depreciation related to the second phase of the renovations at The Londoner Macao and amortization of the intangible asset related to the Macao gaming concession.
Loss on disposal or impairment of assets was $4 million for three months ended September 30, 2023. The losses incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were primarily due to $2 million in demolition costs related to the renovation at Marina Bay Sands.

__________________________
(1)    Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by management as the primary measure of the operating performance of our segments. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of our operations with those of our competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA. Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, our presentation of consolidated adjusted property EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

(a)During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded stock-based compensation expense of $16 million and $18 million, respectively, of which $10 million and $9 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Adjusted property EBITDA at our Macao operations increased $783 million compared with the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to increases in revenues across our operations due to increased visitation at our Macao properties driven by the lift of most COVID-19 restrictions in late December 2022 and early January 2023.
Adjusted property EBITDA at Marina Bay Sands increased $148 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to increases in revenues across our operations driven by increased visitation and airlift passenger movement in Singapore, as well as new and elevated suites and rooms and other amenities introduced at Marina Bay Sands during the year.

$14,863 $15,491 
Weighted average interest rate
5.4 %4.8 %
Interest cost increased $18 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily resulting from an increase in the weighted average interest rate from 4.8% to 5.4% during the three months ended September 30, 2023 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. This is due to the increase in the underlying benchmark rates on our SCL Revolving Facility and our Singapore Credit Facility. Interest cost was also impacted by an overall decrease in our weighted average total debt balance, due primarily to the $1.20 billion and $500 million paid on the SCL Revolving Facility in May 2023 and August 2023, respectively, partially offset by the addition of the $201 million finance lease entered into in June 2023 for the New York land lease. We also had
36


$8 million in imputed interest expense on the Macao gaming concession financial liability in the third quarter of 2023.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Interest income was $79 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $38 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $41 million. The increase was attributable to an increase of interest income on money market funds, bank deposits and treasury bills driven by higher market interest rates. Our average interest rate on cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 5.6%, compared to 2.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Other income was $4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Other income during the three months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily attributable to foreign currency transaction gains driven by the U.S. dollar-denominated debt held by Sands China Ltd. (“SCL”).
Our income tax expense was $122 million on income before income taxes of $571 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, resulting in an 21.4% effective income tax rate. This compares to a 18.8% effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023, reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on our Singapore operations and a 21% corporate income tax on our domestic operations.
Our operations in Macao are subject to a 12% statutory income tax rate, but in connection with the 35% gaming tax, Venetian Macao Limited (“VML,” a subsidiary of SCL) and its peers received an income tax exemption on gaming operations through December 31, 2022. Additionally, we entered into a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government in April 2019, effective through June 26, 2022, providing an annual payment as a substitution for a 12% tax otherwise due from VML shareholders on dividend distributions paid from VML gaming profits. In December 2022, we requested a corporate tax exemption on profits generated by the operation of casino games in Macao for the new gaming concession period effective from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2032, or for a period of corporate tax exemption that the Chief Executive of Macao may deem more appropriate. We are evaluating the timing of an application for a new shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government. Our income tax expense is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the year applied to year-to-date operating results in accordance with interim accounting guidelines.
The net income attributable to our noncontrolling interests was $69 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss attributable to our noncontrolling interests of $142 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. These amounts were related to the noncontrolling interest of SCL.

Consolidated net revenues were $7.46 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $4.46 billion compared to $2.99 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due primarily to an increase of $3.51 billion at our Macao operations. The increase at our Macao operations was due to increased visitation as COVID-19 restrictions were lifted in Macao and the surrounding region in late December 2022 and early January 2023. In addition, a $952 million increase at Marina Bay Sands was primarily due to increased visitation resulting from the reopening of borders and elimination of pandemic-related restrictions in April 2022.
Net casino revenues increased $3.44 billion compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was driven by a $2.78 billion increase at our Macao operations due to increased visitation across our properties resulting in increased table games and slot volumes. Casino revenues at Marina Bay Sands increased by $662 million due to increased table games and slot volumes. The lift of COVID-19 restrictions in Macao beginning in late December 2022 and elimination of restrictions in April 2022 in Singapore led to increased visitation and table games and slot volumes.

Room revenues increased $566 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $426 million and $140 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. Macao room revenues increased as a result of an increase in occupancy rates and ADR, driven by increased visitation as pandemic-related restrictions were lifted beginning in December 2022 and the grand opening of The Londoner Macao in May 2023. At Marina Bay Sands, room revenues increased due to the elimination of pandemic-related restrictions in April 2022, and from the introduction of new and elevated suites and rooms and other amenities.

(1)During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, approximately 2,000 and 2,100 rooms, respectively, were available for use.
Food and beverage revenues increased $225 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $123 million and $102 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, driven by new outlets and increased business volume at food and beverage outlets and banquet operations.
40


Mall revenues increased $119 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase of $100 million in our Macao operation was primarily driven by a $101 million increase due to a decrease in rent concessions and an increase in overage rent, partially offset by a $4 million decrease in base rent. The $19 million increase at Marina Bay Sands was driven by a $9 million increase in overage rent and a $7 million increase in base rent.

Convention, retail and other revenues increased $116 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due primarily to increases of $87 million and $29 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, driven by increases of $40 million in ferry operations due to the resumption of ferry services in January 2023, $20 million in convention revenue, $23 million in retail and other operating revenues (e.g. limo and spa), including $12 million in insurance recovery due to Typhoon Saola in September 2023, and $18 million in entertainment revenue.

Total operating expenses$5,854 $3,619 61.8 %
Operating expenses were $5.85 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $2.24 billion compared to $3.62 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.69 billion increase in casino expenses.
Casino expenses increased $1.69 billion compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases of $1.34 billion and $175 million in gaming taxes at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, consistent with increased casino revenues. We also had increases in gaming taxes of 1% in Macao and 3% in Singapore, and a 1% increase in value added tax in Singapore.
Room expenses increased $82 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $59 million and $23 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, consistent with increased occupancy in both Macao and Marina Bay Sands and higher costs associated with the new and elevated suites and rooms introduced at Marina Bay Sands during the year.
Food and beverage expenses increased $128 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to increases of $75 million and $53 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, driven by increased business volume at food outlets and banquets operations in line with increased property visitation.
Convention, retail and other expenses increased $68 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, due to increases of $54 million and $14 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. The increases were primarily due to increases of $26 million in ferry operation expenses due to the resumption of ferry services in January 2023, $16 million in entertainment expenses, $6 million in convention expenses, $3 million in limo expenses and $2 million in retail expenses.
42


Provision for credit losses was $2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $14 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The $12 million decrease was primarily driven by collections of Macao casino receivables that were fully reserved. The amount of this provision can vary over short periods of time because of factors specific to the patrons who owe us money from gaming activities. We believe the amount of our provision for credit losses in the future will depend upon the state of the economy, our credit standards, our risk assessments and the judgment of our employees responsible for granting credit.
General and administrative expenses increased $126 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increases of $69 million and $57 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, driven by increases in payroll and marketing costs, utilities and property taxes.
Development expenses were $140 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $108 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the costs were associated with our evaluation and pursuit of new business opportunities primarily in New York, Texas and digital gaming related efforts. Development costs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation and amortization increased $95 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to a $68 million increase at Marina Bay Sands as a result of the completion of renovations that were placed into service during the second quarter and a $27 million increase at our Macao operations primarily as a result of accelerated depreciation related to the second phase of the renovations at The Londoner Macao and amortization of the intangible asset related to the Macao gaming concession.
Loss on disposal or impairment of assets was $22 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The losses incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily due to $13 million in demolition costs related to renovations at Marina Bay Sands and $9 million in disposals and demolition costs at our Macao operations. The losses incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were primarily due to asset disposals and demolition costs related to asset disposals related to aircraft parts.

____________________
(1)    Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by management as the primary measure of the operating performance of our segments. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of our operations with those of our competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted
43


property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA. Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, our presentation of consolidated adjusted property EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

(a)During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $58 million and $47 million, respectively, of which $33 million and $27 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Adjusted property EBITDA at our Macao operations increased $1.84 billion compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to increased casino and room revenues driven by increased visitation at our properties due to the lift of COVID-19 restrictions in late December 2022 and early January 2023.
Adjusted property EBITDA at Marina Bay Sands increased $534 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased revenues across our operations driven by the reopening of borders and elimination of most pandemic-related restrictions in April 2022, as well as introducing new and elevated suites and rooms and other amenities at Marina Bay Sands during the year.

$15,500 $15,188 
Weighted average interest rate
5.4 %4.4 %
Interest cost increased $129 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily resulting from an increase in the weighted average interest rate from 4.4% to 5.4% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This is due to the increase in the underlying benchmark rates on our SCL Revolving Facility and our Singapore Credit Facility. Interest cost was also impacted by an overall increase in our weighted average total debt balance, primarily due to the $1.20 billion drawn on the SCL Revolving Facility in 2022, and the addition of the $201 million finance lease entered into in June 2023 for the New York land lease. This increase was offset by the $1.20 billion and $500 million paid on the SCL Revolving Facility in May 2023 and August 2023, respectively. We also had $23 million in imputed interest expense on the Macao gaming concession financial liability in 2023.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Interest income was $225 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $56 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $169 million, which was primarily attributable to an increase of $159 million in interest income on money market funds, bank deposits and treasury bills driven by higher interest rates. Our average interest rates on cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 4.9%, compared to 1.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. We also had an increase of $8 million in interest income on the seller financing loan provided in connection with the sale of the Las Vegas properties due to an increase in the interest rate as the buyer elected payment-in-kind for the interest payments effective July 1, 2022 and an increase in the period in which the loan balance was outstanding in 2023.
Other expense was $17 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $29 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Other expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily attributable to $27 million of foreign currency transaction losses driven by U.S. dollar denominated debt held by SCL, partially offset by $12 million of foreign currency transaction gains at MBS.
Our income tax expense was $221 million on income before income taxes of $1.18 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, resulting in a 18.7% effective income tax rate. This compares to a 15.6% effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on our Singapore operations and a 21% corporate income tax on our domestic operations.
Our operations in Macao are subject to a 12% statutory income tax rate, but in connection with the 35% gaming tax, VML and its peers received an income tax exemption on gaming operations through December 31, 2022. Additionally, we entered into a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government in April 2019, effective through June 26, 2022, providing an annual payment as a substitution for a 12% tax otherwise due from VML shareholders on dividend distributions paid from VML gaming profits. In December 2022, we requested a corporate tax exemption on profits generated by the operation of casino games in Macao for the new gaming concession period effective from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2032, or for a period of corporate tax exemption that the Chief Executive of Macao may deem more appropriate. We are evaluating the timing of an application for a new shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government. Our income tax expense is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the year applied to year-to-date operating results in accordance with interim accounting guidelines.
45


The net income attributable to our noncontrolling interests was $123 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss attributable to our noncontrolling interests of $370 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. These amounts were related to the noncontrolling interest of SCL.
Additional Information Regarding our Retail Mall Operations
We own and operate retail malls at our Integrated Resorts at The Venetian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao, The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao and Marina Bay Sands. Management believes being in the retail mall business and, specifically, owning some of the largest retail properties in Asia will provide meaningful value for us, particularly as the retail market in Asia continues to grow.
Our malls are designed to complement our other unique amenities and service offerings provided by our Integrated Resorts. Our strategy is to seek out desirable tenants that appeal to our patrons and provide a wide variety of shopping options. We generate our mall revenues primarily from leases with tenants through minimum base rents, overage rents, and reimbursements for common area maintenance (“CAM”) and other expenditures.
The following tables summarize the results of our mall operations on the Cotai Strip and at Marina Bay Sands for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

____________________
Note: This table excludes the results of our retail outlets at Sands Macao.
(1)Minimum rents include base rents and straight-line adjustments of base rents.
(2)Rent concessions were provided to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on mall operations.
(3)Commercial property that generates rental income is exempt from property tax for the first six years for newly constructed buildings in Cotai. If the property also qualifies for Tourism Utility Status, the property tax exemption can be extended to twelve years with effect from the opening of the property. The exemption for The Venetian Macao and The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao expired, and the exemption for The Londoner Macao and The Parisian Macao will be expiring in December 2027 and September 2028, respectively.
(4)Mall-related expenses consist of CAM, marketing fees and other direct operating expenses, property taxes and provision for credit losses, but excludes depreciation and amortization and general and administrative costs.
It is common in the mall operating industry for companies to disclose mall net operating income (“NOI”) as a useful supplemental measure of a mall’s operating performance. Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, interest expense, impairment losses, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, allocations to noncontrolling interests and provision for income taxes, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial real estate properties and the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.
In the tables above, we believe taking total mall revenues less mall-related expenses provides an operating performance measure for our malls. Other mall operating companies may use different methodologies for deriving
47


mall-related expenses. As such, this calculation may not be comparable to the NOI of other mall operating companies.
Development Projects
We regularly evaluate opportunities to improve our product offerings, such as refreshing our meeting and convention facilities, suites and rooms, retail malls, restaurant and nightlife mix and our gaming areas, as well as other anticipated revenue-generating additions to our Integrated Resorts.
New York
On June 2, 2023, we paid $241 million to acquire Nassau Live Center, LLC and related entities (the “Nassau Coliseum”), the owners and operators of an entertainment arena in the State of New York. The purchase of the Nassau Coliseum, which continues to operate following the closing of the sale, primarily included the fixed assets related to the arena and the right to lease the underlying land from the owner, the County of Nassau in the State of New York. We purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance we will be able to obtain such casino license.
Singapore
In April 2019, our wholly owned subsidiary, MBS and the STB entered into a development agreement (the “Second Development Agreement”) pursuant to which MBS has agreed to construct a development, which will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats (the “MBS Expansion Project”).
The Second Development Agreement provides for a total minimum project cost of approximately 4.50 billion Singapore dollars (“SGD,” approximately $3.29 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The estimated cost and timing of the total project will be updated as we complete design and begin construction. We expect the total project cost will materially exceed the amounts referenced above from April 2019 based on current market conditions due to inflation, higher material and labor costs and other factors. We have incurred approximately $1.08 billion as of September 30, 2023, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site.
On March 22, 2023, MBS and the STB entered into a supplemental agreement (the “Supplemental Agreement”), which further extended the construction commencement date to April 8, 2024 and the construction completion date to April 8, 2028, and allowed for changes to the construction and operation plans under the Second Development Agreement.
We amended our 2012 Singapore Credit Facility to provide for the financing of the development and construction costs, fees and other expenses related to the MBS Expansion Project pursuant to the Second Development Agreement. On September 7, 2021, we amended the 2012 Singapore Credit Facility, which, among other things, extended the deadline for delivering the construction cost estimate and the construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project to March 31, 2022. As noted above, we are in the process of completing the design and reviewing the budget and timing of the MBS expansion due to various factors. As a result, the construction cost estimate and construction schedule were not delivered to the lenders by the extended deadline, and we will not be permitted to make further draws on the Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility until these items are delivered. We do not anticipate material spend related to the MBS Expansion Project prior to the delivery of these items to lenders.
We are nearing completion of the renovation of Towers 1 and 2 of Marina Bay Sands. This renovation has introduced world class suites and other luxury amenities at a cost estimated at approximately $1.0 billion upon completion. We also announced the next phase with the renovation of the Tower 3 hotel rooms into world class suites and other property changes at an estimated cost of approximately $750 million. These renovations at Marina Bay Sands are substantially upgrading the overall guest experience for our premium customers, including new dining and retail experiences, and upgrading the casino floor, among other things. These projects are in addition to the previously announced plans for the MBS Expansion Project.

Macao
Under the Concession, we are required to invest a minimum of 30.24 billion patacas (approximately $3.75 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) in certain gaming and non-gaming projects in Macao by December 2032. The specific investments to be carried out are determined annually by VML and proposed to the Macao government for approval. These investments will be in connection with, among others, attracting international visitors to Macao, conventions and exhibitions, entertainment shows, sporting events, culture and art, health and wellness, themed attractions, supporting Macao’s position as a city of gastronomy, and increasing community and maritime tourism. We expect to invest 27.80 billion patacas (approximately $3.45 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) in non-gaming projects. VML submitted the list of investments and projects it intends to carry out in 2023 to the Macao government on March 31, 2023, which has been approved by the Macao government.
We have commenced works on Phase II of the Londoner Macao, which includes the renovation of the rooms in the Sheraton and Conrad hotel towers and the addition of new attractions, dining, retail and entertainment offerings. These projects have a total estimated cost of $1.0 billion.

Cash Flows — Operating Activities
Table games play at our properties is conducted on a cash and credit basis, while slot machine play is primarily conducted on a cash basis. Our rooms, food and beverage and other non-gaming revenues are conducted primarily on a cash basis and to a lesser extent as a trade receivable. Operating cash flows are generally affected by changes in operating income, accounts receivable, gaming related liabilities and interest payments. Cash flows from
49


operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased $3.06 billion as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in cash generated from operations was primarily due to our Macao and Singapore operations generating increased operating income driven by the acceleration of visitation and the elimination of most pandemic-related restrictions in Singapore, beginning in April 2022, and in Macao, beginning in late December 2022, and increased working capital.
Cash Flows — Investing Activities
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, totaled $692 million. Included in this amount was $400 million for construction activities at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and $124 million for construction and development activities in Macao, which consisted of $66 million for The Londoner Macao, $44 million for The Venetian Macao, $8 million for The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao, $3 million for Sands Macao and $3 million for The Parisian Macao. Additionally, this amount included $168 million for corporate and other costs.
Included in net cash flows from investing activities was a payment of $221 million related to the purchase of the Nassau Coliseum.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, totaled $504 million. Included in this amount was $255 million at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and $199 million for construction and development activities in Macao, which consisted of $153 million for The Londoner Macao, $35 million for The Venetian Macao, $7 million for The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao, $2 million for Sands Macao and $2 million for the Parisian Macao. Additionally, this amount included $50 million for corporate and other costs.
Cash Flows — Financing Activities
Net cash flows used in financing activities were $2.01 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was primarily attributable to $1.80 billion in repayments on long-term debt, primarily related to the repayment on the SCL revolving facility of $1.70 billion, $153 million in dividend payments, $32 million in deferred offering costs primarily relating to the amendment and restatement of the 2018 SCL Credit Facility and $25 million in other financial liability payments.
Net cash flows generated from financing activities were $5.67 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was primarily attributable to the net proceeds from the sale of the Las Vegas properties of $4.89 billion. Additionally, $700 million was received from the drawdown of our SCL revolving facility. These items were partially offset by $50 million in repayments on long-term debt and $9 million in deferred offering costs relating to obtaining LVSC Revolving Facility lender consents to consummate the Las Vegas sale.
Capital Financing Overview
We fund our development projects primarily through borrowings from our debt instruments and operating cash flows.
Our U.S., SCL and Singapore credit facilities, as amended, contain various financial covenants, which include maintaining a maximum leverage ratio, as defined per the respective facility agreements. As of September 30, 2023, our U.S. and Singapore leverage ratios, as defined per the respective credit facility agreements, were 3.5x and 2.0x, respectively, compared to the maximum leverage ratios allowed of 4.0x and 4.5x, respectively. If we are unable to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under these credit facilities, we would be in default under the respective credit facilities.
On May 11, 2023, SCL entered into an amended and restated facility agreement (the “A&R Facility Agreement”) with respect to certain provisions of the 2018 SCL Credit Facility, pursuant to which lenders have (a) extended the termination date for the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) commitments and U.S. dollar commitments of the lenders that consented to the waivers and amendments in the A&R Facility Agreement (the “Extending Lenders”) from July 31, 2023 to July 31, 2025; (b) extended to (and including) January 1, 2024, the waiver period for the requirement for SCL to comply with the requirements that SCL ensure (i) the consolidated leverage ratio does not exceed 4.0x and (ii) the consolidated interest coverage ratio is not less than 2.5x; (c) amended the definition of consolidated total debt such that it excludes any financial indebtedness that is subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the A&R Facility Agreement (including the $1.0 billion subordinated unsecured term loan facility made available by the Company to SCL); (d) amended the maximum permitted
50


consolidated leverage ratio as of the last day of each of the financial quarters ending March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, and subsequent financial quarters to be 6.25x, 5.5x, 5.0x, 4.5x, and 4.0x respectively; and (e) extended to (and including) January 1, 2025 the period during which SCL’s ability to declare or make any dividend payment or similar distribution is restricted if at such time (x) the Total Commitments (as defined in the A&R Facility Agreement) exceed $2.0 billion by SCL’s exercise of the option to increase the Total Commitments by an aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion and (y) the consolidated leverage ratio is greater than 4.0x, unless, after giving effect to such payment, the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents of SCL on such date and (ii) the aggregate amount of the undrawn facility under the A&R Facility Agreement and unused commitments under other credit facilities of SCL is greater than $2.0 billion. Pursuant to the A&R Facility Agreement, SCL paid a customary fee to the Extending Lenders that consented. The amendments with respect to the Extended Commitments took effect on July 31, 2023.
On January 30, 2023, LVSC entered into the Fourth Amendment with lenders to the LVSC Revolving Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the existing LVSC Revolving Credit Agreement was amended to (a) determine consolidated adjusted EBITDA on a year-to-date annualized basis during the period commencing on the effective date and ending on and including December 31, 2023, as follows: (i) for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, consolidated adjusted EBITDA for such fiscal quarter multiplied by four, (ii) for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2023, consolidated adjusted EBITDA for such fiscal quarter and the immediately preceding fiscal quarter multiplied by two, and (iii) for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2023, consolidated adjusted EBITDA for such fiscal quarter and the two immediately preceding fiscal quarters, multiplied by four-thirds; (b) extend the period during which LVSC is required to maintain a specified amount of minimum liquidity as of the last day of each month to December 31, 2023; and (c) extend the period during which LVSC is unable to declare or pay any dividend or other distribution, unless liquidity is greater than $1.0 billion on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such dividend or distribution, to December 31, 2023.
We held unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $5.57 billion and restricted cash of approximately $124 million as of September 30, 2023, which approximately $1.94 billion of the unrestricted amount is held by non-U.S. subsidiaries. Of the $1.94 billion, approximately $1.61 billion is available to be repatriated, either in the form of dividends or via intercompany loans or advances, to the U.S., subject to levels of earnings, cash flow generated from gaming operations and various other factors, including dividend requirements to third-party public stockholders in the case of funds being repatriated from SCL, compliance with certain local statutes, laws and regulations currently applicable to our subsidiaries and restrictions in connection with their contractual arrangements. We do not expect withholding taxes or other foreign income taxes to apply should these earnings be distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise.
We believe we have a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity in place, including unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5.57 billion and cash flow generated from operations, as well as the $4.17 billion available for borrowing under our U.S., SCL and Singapore revolving credit facilities, net of outstanding letters of credit, and SGD 3.69 billion (approximately $2.70 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) under our Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility as of September 30, 2023 (only available for draws after the construction cost estimate and construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project have been delivered to the lenders). We believe we are well positioned to support our continuing operations, maintain compliance with the financial covenants of our credit facilities and fund our working capital needs, committed and planned capital expenditures, development opportunities, debt obligations and dividend commitments, as well as meet our commitments under the Macao Concession. In the normal course of our activities, we will continue to evaluate global capital markets to consider future opportunities for enhancements of our capital structure.
In July 2023, we announced the resumption of our return of capital program. On August 16, 2023, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per common share as part of a regular cash dividend program and, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, recorded $153 million as a distribution against retained earnings. In October 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per common share (a total estimated to be approximately $153 million) to be paid on November 15, 2023, to stockholders of record on November 7, 2023.
51


Share Repurchase Program
On October 16, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized increasing the remaining repurchase amount of $916 million to $2.0 billion and extending the expiration date from November 2024 to November 3, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, no shares of our common stock were repurchased. We intend to resume our share repurchase program in the fourth quarter of 2023. All share repurchases of our common stock have been recorded as treasury stock. Repurchases of our common stock are made at our discretion in accordance with applicable federal securities laws in the open market or otherwise. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of factors, including our financial position, earnings, cash flows, legal requirements, other investment opportunities and market conditions.
Aggregate Indebtedness and Other Contractual Obligations
As of September 30, 2023, there had been no material changes to our aggregated indebtedness and other contractual obligations previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, with the exception of the extension of the maturity date for the 2018 SCL Revolving Credit Facility, a $1.70 billion repayment and the accompanying interest on this facility; the decrease in fixed interest payments on the SCL senior notes due to an upgraded credit rating from Standard & Poor’s, the decrease being effective on the first payment date after July 26, 2023; the land lease related to the purchase of the Nassau Coliseum; and new sponsorship and similar agreements entered into.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposures to market risk are interest rate risk associated with our long-term debt and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our operations outside the United States, which we may manage through the use of futures, options, caps, forward contracts and similar instruments. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes and do not enter into derivative transactions that would be considered speculative positions.
As of September 30, 2023, the estimated fair value of our long-term debt was approximately $13.30 billion, compared to its contractual value of $14.26 billion. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is based on recent trades, if available, and indicative pricing from market information (level 2 inputs). A hypothetical 100 basis point change in market rates would cause the fair value of our long-term debt to change by $309 million. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), Hong Kong Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“HIBOR”) and Swap Offer Rate (“SOR”) would cause our annual interest cost on our long-term debt to change by approximately $31 million.
Foreign currency transaction losses were $17 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to U.S. dollar denominated debt issued by SCL. We may be vulnerable to changes in the U.S. dollar/SGD and U.S. dollar/pataca exchange rates. Based on balances as of September 30, 2023, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar/SGD exchange rate would cause a foreign currency transaction loss of approximately $21 million, and a hypothetical 1% weakening of the U.S. dollar/pataca exchange rate would cause a foreign currency transaction loss of approximately $70 million (net of the impact from the foreign currency swap agreements). The pataca is pegged to the Hong Kong dollar and the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar (within a narrow range). We maintain a significant amount of our operating funds in the same currencies in which we have obligations thereby reducing our exposure to currency fluctuations.
ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) of the Company as of September 30, 2023, and have concluded they are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
It should be noted any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that had a material effect, or were reasonably likely to have a material effect, on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Organization and Business of Company Organization and Business of Company
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (“LVSC”), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2022, and have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period have been included. The interim results reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of expected results for the full year.
Operations
Macao
From 2020 through the beginning of 2023, the Company’s operations in Macao were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao government's policy regarding the management of COVID-19 and general travel restrictions was relaxed in late December 2022 and early January 2023. Since then, visitation to the Company’s Macao Integrated Resorts and operations have improved.
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao increased approximately 243.6% and decreased approximately 39.7%, during the eight months ended August 31, 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019 (pre-pandemic), respectively. The Macao government also announced gross gaming revenue increased approximately 779.7% and decreased approximately 31.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively. Additionally, gross gaming revenue increased approximately 305.3% and decreased approximately 41.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Singapore
From 2020 through early 2022, the Company’s operations in Singapore were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Vaccinated Travel Framework (“VTF”), launched in April 2022, facilitated the resumption of travel and had a positive impact on operations at Marina Bay Sands. During February 2023, any remaining COVID-19 border measures were lifted.
Visitation to Marina Bay Sands continues to improve since the travel restrictions have been lifted. The Singapore Tourism Board (“STB”) announced total visitation to Singapore increased from approximately 3.7 million in 2022 to 10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, while visitation decreased 29.2% when compared to the same period in 2019.
Summary
While the disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the potential future impact, if any, on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition is uncertain. However, the Company has a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity in place, including total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5.57 billion and access to $1.50 billion, $2.24 billion and $431 million of available borrowing capacity from the Company’s LVSC Revolving Facility, 2018 SCL Revolving Facility and 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The Company believes it is able to support continuing operations and complete the Company’s major construction projects that are underway.
Development Projects
New York
On June 2, 2023, the Company acquired the Nassau Coliseum from Nassau Live Center, LLC and related entities, which included the right to lease the underlying land from the County of Nassau in the State of New York (the “Nassau Coliseum Transaction”). The Company purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such casino license.
Singapore
In April 2019, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd. (“MBS”) and the STB entered into a development agreement (the “Second Development Agreement”) pursuant to which MBS has agreed to construct a development, which will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats (the “MBS Expansion Project”). The Second Development Agreement provides for a total minimum project cost of approximately 4.50 billion Singapore dollars (“SGD,” approximately $3.29 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The estimated cost and timing of the total project will be updated as the Company completes design and begins construction. The Company expects the total project cost will materially exceed the amounts referenced above from April 2019 based on current market conditions due to inflation, higher material and labor costs and other factors. The Company has incurred approximately $1.08 billion as of September 30, 2023, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site. On March 22, 2023, MBS and the STB entered into a supplemental agreement, which further extended the construction commencement date to April 8, 2024 and the construction completion date to April 8, 2028, and allowed for changes to the construction and operation plans under the Second Development Agreement.
The Company is nearing completion of the renovation of Towers 1 and 2 of Marina Bay Sands. This renovation has introduced world class suites and other luxury amenities at a cost estimated at approximately $1.0 billion upon completion. The Company also announced the next phase with the renovation of the Tower 3 hotel rooms into world class suites and other property changes at an estimated cost of approximately $750 million. These renovations at Marina Bay Sands are substantially upgrading the overall guest experience for our premium customers, including new dining and retail experiences, and upgrading the casino floor, among other things. These projects are in addition to the previously announced plans for the MBS Expansion Project.
Macao
The Company has commenced work on Phase II of the Londoner Macao, which includes the renovation of the rooms in the Sheraton and Conrad hotel towers and the addition of new attractions, dining, retail and entertainment offerings. These projects have a total estimated cost of $1.0 billion.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management has evaluated the accounting standards that have been recently issued, but not yet effective, or those proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these financial statements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Accounts, Notes, Loans and Financing Receivable, Gross, Allowance, and Net [Abstract]  
Accounts Receivable, Net Accounts Receivable, Net and Customer Contract Related Liabilities
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable is comprised of casino, hotel, mall and other receivables, which do not bear interest and are recorded at amortized cost. The Company extends credit to approved casino patrons following background checks and investigations of creditworthiness. Business or economic conditions, the legal enforceability of gaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant events in foreign countries could affect the collectability of receivables from patrons in these countries.
Accounts receivable primarily consists of casino receivables. Other than casino receivables, there is no other concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration of its credit risk in casino receivables is mitigated substantially by its credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures, and also believes there are no concentrations of credit risk for which a provision has not been established. Although management believes the provision is adequate, it is possible the estimated amount of cash collections with respect to accounts receivable could change.
The Company maintains a provision for expected credit losses on casino, hotel and mall receivables and regularly evaluates the balances. The Company applies standard reserve percentages to aged account balances, which are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due. The reserve percentages are based on estimated loss rates supported by historical observed default rates over the expected life of the receivable and are adjusted for forward-looking information. The Company also specifically analyzes the collectability of each account with a balance over a specified dollar amount, based upon the age of the account, the patron's financial condition, collection history and any other known information and adjusts the aforementioned reserve with the results from the individual reserve analysis. The Company also monitors regional and global economic conditions and forecasts in its evaluation of the adequacy of the recorded reserves. Account balances are written off against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.

Macao Concession
On December 16, 2022, the Macao government announced the award of six definitive gaming concessions, one of which was awarded to Venetian Macau Limited (“VML,” a subsidiary of Sands China Ltd.), and on January 1, 2023, VML entered into a ten-year gaming concession contract with the Macao government (the “Concession”). Under the terms of the Concession, VML is required to pay the Macao government an annual gaming premium consisting of a fixed portion and a variable portion. The fixed portion of the premium is 30 million patacas (approximately $4 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The variable portion is 300,000 patacas per gaming table reserved exclusively for certain types of games or players, 150,000 patacas per gaming table not so reserved (the mass rate) and 1,000 patacas per electrical or mechanical gaming machine, including slot machines (approximately $37,200, $18,600 and $124, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023).
On December 30, 2022, VML and certain other subsidiaries of the Company, confirmed and agreed to revert certain gaming equipment and gaming areas to the Macao government without compensation and free of any liens or charges in accordance with, and upon the expiry of, VML’s subconcession. On the same day, VML and the Macao government entered into a handover record (the “Handover Record”) granting VML the right to operate the reverted gaming equipment and gaming areas for the duration of the Concession in consideration for the payment of an annual fee. The annual fee is calculated based on a price per square meter of reverted gaming area, being 750 patacas per square meter in the first three years and 2,500 patacas per square meter in the subsequent seven years (approximately $93 and $310, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). The price per square meter used to determine the annual fee will be adjusted annually based on Macao’s average price index of the corresponding preceding year. The annual fee is estimated to be $13 million for the first three years and $42 million for the following seven years, subject to the aforementioned adjustment.
On January 1, 2023, the Company recognized an intangible asset and financial liability of 4.0 billion patacas (approximately $496 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), representing the right to operate the gaming equipment and the gaming areas, the right to conduct games of chance in Macao and the unconditional obligation to make payments under the Concession. This intangible asset comprises the contractually obligated annual payments of fixed and variable premiums, as well as fees associated with the above-described Handover Record. The contractually obligated annual variable premium payments associated with the intangible asset was determined using the maximum number of table games at the mass rate and the maximum number of gaming machines that VML is currently allowed to operate by the Macao government. In the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, the noncurrent portion of the financial liability is included in “Other long-term liabilities” and the current portion is included in “Other accrued liabilities.” The intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the Concession, being ten years.
Amortization expense for all intangible assets was $17 million and $7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $51 million and $16 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The estimated future amortization expense for all intangible assets is approximately $17 million for the three months ending December 31, 2023, and $67 million, $55 million, $50 million, $50 million for the years ending December 31, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively, and $248 million thereafter.
Nassau Coliseum
On June 2, 2023, the Company closed on its acquisition of the Nassau Coliseum, an entertainment arena in the State of New York. The Company paid an aggregate amount of $241 million, consisting of $221 million upon closing and a $20 million deposit made in 2022. The purchase of the Nassau Coliseum, which continues to operate following the closing of the sale, primarily included the fixed assets related to the arena and the right to lease the underlying land from the owner, the County of Nassau in the State of New York. This transaction resulted in the recognition of $92 million of goodwill. The Company purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such casino license.

2018 SCL Credit Facility
On May 11, 2023, SCL entered into an amended and restated facility agreement (the “A&R Facility Agreement”) with respect to certain provisions of the 2018 SCL Credit Facility, pursuant to which lenders have (a) extended the termination date for the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) commitments and U.S. dollar commitments of the lenders that consented to the waivers and amendments in the A&R Facility Agreement (the “Extending Lenders”) from July 31, 2023 to July 31, 2025; (b) extended to (and including) January 1, 2024, the waiver period for the requirement for SCL to comply with the requirements that SCL ensure (i) the consolidated leverage ratio does not exceed 4.0x and (ii) the consolidated interest coverage ratio is not less than 2.5x; (c) amended the definition of consolidated total debt such that it excludes any financial indebtedness that is subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the A&R Facility Agreement (including the $1.0 billion subordinated unsecured term loan facility made available by the Company to SCL); (d) amended the maximum permitted consolidated leverage ratio as of the last day of each of the financial quarters ending March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, and subsequent financial quarters to be 6.25x, 5.5x, 5.0x, 4.5x, and 4.0x, respectively; and (e) extended to (and including) January 1, 2025, the period during which SCL’s ability to declare or make any dividend payment or similar distribution is restricted if at such time (x) the Total Commitments (as defined in the A&R Facility Agreement) exceed $2.0 billion by SCL’s exercise of the option to increase the Total Commitments by an aggregate amount of up to $1.0 billion and (y) the consolidated leverage ratio is greater than 4.0x, unless, after giving effect to such payment, the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents of SCL on such date and (ii) the aggregate amount of the undrawn facility under the A&R Facility Agreement and unused commitments under other credit facilities of SCL is greater than $2.0 billion. The amendments with respect to the Extended Commitments took effect on July 31, 2023. Pursuant to the A&R Facility Agreement, SCL paid a customary fee to the Extending Lenders that consented.
The Extending Lenders’ HKD commitments total HKD 17.63 billion (approximately $2.25 billion at exchange rates in effect on May 11, 2023) and U.S. dollar commitments total $237 million, which together represent 100% of the total available commitments under the A&R Facility Agreement.
As of September 30, 2023, SCL had $2.24 billion of available borrowing capacity under the 2018 SCL Revolving Facility comprised of HKD commitments of HKD 15.86 billion (approximately $2.03 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) and U.S. dollar commitments of $213 million.
2012 Singapore Credit Facility

During 2021, the Company amended its 2012 Singapore Credit Facility, which, among other things, extended to March 31, 2022, the deadline for delivering the construction cost estimate and the construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project.

As a result, the construction cost estimate and construction schedule were not delivered to the lenders by the March 31, 2022 deadline. As of September 30, 2023, there was SGD 3.69 billion (approximately $2.70 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) left of total borrowing capacity, which is only available to be drawn under the Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility after the construction cost estimate and construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project are delivered to lenders. The Company does not anticipate material spend related to the MBS Expansion Project prior to the delivery of these items to the lenders.
Debt Covenant Compliance
As of September 30, 2023, management believes the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 18.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 15.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on the Company’s Singapore operations and a 21% corporate income tax rate on its domestic operations.
The Company’s operations in Macao are subject to a 12% statutory income tax rate, but in connection with the 35% gaming tax, VML and its peers received a corporate income tax exemption on gaming operations through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, VML requested a corporate tax exemption on profits generated by the operation of casino games in Macao for the new gaming concession period effective from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2032, or for a period of corporate tax exemption that the Chief Executive of Macao may deem more appropriate. Additionally, the Company entered into a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao
government in April 2019, effective through June 26, 2022, providing an annual payment as a substitution for a 12% tax otherwise due from VML shareholders on dividend distributions paid from VML gaming profits. The Company is evaluating the timing of an application for a new shareholder dividend tax agreement. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, anticipates similar tax agreements for the new Concession period; however, there is no assurance such agreements will be entered into.In accordance with interim accounting guidance, the Company calculated an estimated annual effective tax rate based on expected annual income and statutory rates in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. This estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to actual year-to-date operating results to determine the provision for income taxes.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amounts of the Company's assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value were immaterial.
As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivables, net, and accounts payable, had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments. The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash deposits, cash held in money market funds and U.S. Treasury Bills. U.S. Treasury Bills are held-to-maturity.
The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held or issued by the Company as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, using available market information. Determining fair value is judgmental in nature and requires market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies.

On January 19, 2012, Asian American Entertainment Corporation, Limited (“AAEC” or “Plaintiff”) filed a claim with the Macao First Instance Court against VML, LVS (Nevada) International Holdings, Inc. (“LVS (Nevada)”), Las Vegas Sands, LLC (“LVSLLC”) and Venetian Casino Resort (“VCR”) (collectively, the “Defendants”) for 3.0 billion patacas (approximately $372 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), which alleges a breach of agreements entered into between AAEC and LVS (Nevada), LVSLLC and VCR (collectively, the “U.S. Defendants”) for their joint presentation of a bid in response to the public tender held by the Macao government for the award of gaming concessions at the end of 2001.
On March 24, 2014, the Macao First Instance Court issued a decision holding that AAEC’s claim against VML is unfounded and that VML be removed as a party to the proceedings. On May 8, 2014, AAEC lodged an appeal against that decision and the appeal is currently pending.
On June 5, 2015, the U.S. Defendants applied to the Macao First Instance Court to dismiss the claims against them as res judicata based on the dismissal of prior action in the United States that had alleged similar claims. On March 16, 2016, the Macao First Instance Court dismissed the defense of res judicata. An appeal against that decision was lodged by U.S. Defendants on April 7, 2016. At the end of December 2016, all the appeals were transferred to the Macao Second Instance Court.
Evidence gathering by the Macao First Instance commenced by letters rogatory, which was completed on March 14, 2019.
On July 15, 2019, AAEC submitted a request to the Macao First Instance Court to increase the amount of its claim to 96.45 billion patacas (approximately $11.96 billion at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023), allegedly representing lost profits from 2004 to 2018, and reserving its right to claim for lost profits up to 2022. On September 4, 2019, the Macao First Instance Court allowed AAEC’s amended request. The U.S. Defendants appealed the decision allowing the amended claim on September 17, 2019; the Macao First Instance Court accepted the appeal on September 26, 2019, and that appeal is currently pending.
On April 16, 2021, the U.S. Defendants moved to reschedule the trial because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao First Instance Court denied the U.S. Defendants’ motion on May 28, 2021. The U.S. Defendants appealed that ruling on June 16, 2021, and that appeal is currently pending.
The trial began on June 16, 2021. By order dated June 17, 2021, the Macao First Instance Court scheduled additional trial dates in late 2021 to hear witnesses who were subject to COVID-19 travel restrictions that prevented or severely limited their ability to enter Macao. The U.S. Defendants appealed certain aspects of the Macao First Instance Court’s June 17, 2021 order, and that appeal is currently pending.
On July 10, 2021, the U.S. Defendants were notified of an invoice for supplemental court fees totaling 93 million patacas (approximately $12 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023) based on Plaintiff’s July 15, 2019 amendment. By motion dated July 20, 2021, the U.S. Defendants moved for an order withdrawing that invoice. The Macao First Instance Court denied that motion by order dated September 11, 2021. The U.S. Defendants appealed that order on September 23, 2021, and that appeal is currently pending. By order dated September 29, 2021, the Macao First Instance Court ordered that the invoice for supplemental court fees be stayed pending resolution of that appeal.
From December 17, 2021 to January 19, 2022, Plaintiff submitted additional documents to the court file and disclosed written reports from two purported experts, who calculated Plaintiff’s damages at 57.88 billion patacas and 62.29 billion patacas (approximately $7.18 billion and $7.72 billion, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). On April 28, 2022, the Macao First Instance Court entered a judgment for the U.S. Defendants. The Macao First Instance Court also held that Plaintiff litigated certain aspects of its case in bad faith.
Plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from the Macao First Instance Court’s judgment on May 13, 2022. That appeal is fully briefed and remains pending with the Macao Second Instance Court.
On September 19, 2022, the U.S. Defendants were notified of an invoice for appeal court fees totaling 48 million patacas (approximately $6 million at exchange rates in effect on September 30, 2023). By motion dated September 29, 2022, the U.S. Defendants moved the Macao First Instance Court for an order withdrawing that invoice. The Macao First Instance Court denied that motion by order dated October 24, 2022. The U.S. Defendants appealed that order on November 10, 2022 and on January 6, 2023, submitted the appeal brief, and that appeal remains pending.
On October 9, 2023, the U.S. Defendants were notified that the Macao Second Instance Court had invited Plaintiff to amend its appeal brief, primarily to separate out matters of fact from matters of law, and Plaintiff had submitted an amended appeal brief on October 5, 2023. The deadline for U.S. Defendants to respond is October 30, 2023.
Management has determined that, based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.
The Daniels Family 2001 Revocable Trust v. LVSC, et al.
On October 22, 2020, The Daniels Family 2001 Revocable Trust, a putative purchaser of the Company’s shares, filed a purported class action complaint in the U.S. District Court against LVSC, Sheldon G. Adelson and Patrick Dumont. The complaint asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and alleges that LVSC made materially false or misleading statements, or failed to disclose material facts, from February 27, 2016 through September 15, 2020, with respect to its operations at Marina Bay Sands, its compliance with Singapore laws and regulations, and its disclosure controls and procedures.
On January 5, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an order appointing Carl S. Ciaccio and Donald M. DeSalvo as lead plaintiffs (“Lead Plaintiffs”). On March 8, 2021, Lead Plaintiffs filed a purported class action amended complaint against LVSC, Sheldon G. Adelson, Patrick Dumont, and Robert G. Goldstein, alleging similar violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act over the same time period of February 27, 2016 through September 15, 2020. On March 22, 2021, the U.S. District Court granted Lead Plaintiffs’ motion to substitute Dr. Miriam Adelson, in her capacity as the Special Administrator for the estate of Sheldon G. Adelson, for Sheldon G. Adelson as a defendant in this action.
On May 7, 2021, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which on March 28, 2022, the U.S. District Court granted in its entirety. The U.S. District Court dismissed certain claims with prejudice, but granted Lead Plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint with respect to the other claims by April 18, 2022. On April 8, 2022, Lead Plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration and to extend time to file an Amended Complaint. The defendants filed an opposition to the motion on April 22, 2022.
On April 18, 2022, Lead Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint. On May 18, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint, and briefing was completed on July 8, 2022.
On August 8, 2023, the U.S. District Court denied Lead Plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration, and granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The U.S. District Court dismissed Lead Plaintiffs’ allegations pertaining to challenged statements that were made in 2016, 2017 and 2018, but allowed the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020 to proceed. On August 22, 2023, the defendants filed a motion for partial reconsideration, requesting that the U.S. District Court reconsider its denial of the motion to dismiss with respect to the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020. If the motion for partial reconsideration is
granted, this would result in dismissal of the second amended complaint. The defendants also moved, in the event the motion for partial reconsideration is not granted, for certification for interlocutory appeal of the U.S. District Court’s order allowing the challenged statements from 2019 and 2020 to proceed. The defendants simultaneously filed a motion for a stay pending adjudication of the motion for reconsideration, which requests a stay of all discovery and case deadlines. Lead Plaintiffs filed oppositions to both motions on September 5, 2023, and the defendants filed their replies on September 12, 2023. These motions are pending before the U.S. District Court.
This action is in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.
Turesky v. Sheldon G. Adelson, et al.
On December 28, 2020, Andrew Turesky filed a putative shareholder derivative action on behalf of the Company in the U.S. District Court, against Sheldon G. Adelson, Patrick Dumont, Robert G. Goldstein, Irwin Chafetz, Micheline Chau, Charles D. Forman, Steven L. Gerard, George Jamieson, Charles A. Koppelman, Lewis Kramer and David F. Levi, all of whom are current or former directors and/or officers of LVSC. The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, violations of Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and for contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act. On February 24, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an order granting the parties’ stipulation to stay this action in light of the Daniels Family 2001 Revocable Trust putative securities class action (the “Securities Action”). Subject to the terms of the parties’ stipulation, this action is stayed until 30 days after the final resolution of the motion to dismiss in the Securities Action. On March 11, 2021, the U.S. District Court granted the plaintiff’s motion to substitute Dr. Miriam Adelson, in her capacity as the Special Administrator for the estate of Sheldon G. Adelson, for Sheldon G. Adelson as a defendant in this action. This action is in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.

(1)Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of its operations with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA.
Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, consolidated adjusted property EBITDA as presented by the Company may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
(2)During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $16 million and $18 million, respectively, of which $10 million and $9 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $58 million and $47 million, respectively, of which $33 million and $27 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts receivable and provision for credit losses
Accounts receivable is comprised of casino, hotel, mall and other receivables, which do not bear interest and are recorded at amortized cost. The Company extends credit to approved casino patrons following background checks and investigations of creditworthiness. Business or economic conditions, the legal enforceability of gaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant events in foreign countries could affect the collectability of receivables from patrons in these countries.
Accounts receivable primarily consists of casino receivables. Other than casino receivables, there is no other concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable. The Company believes the concentration of its credit risk in casino receivables is mitigated substantially by its credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures, and also believes there are no concentrations of credit risk for which a provision has not been established. Although management believes the provision is adequate, it is possible the estimated amount of cash collections with respect to accounts receivable could change.
The Company maintains a provision for expected credit losses on casino, hotel and mall receivables and regularly evaluates the balances. The Company applies standard reserve percentages to aged account balances, which are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due. The reserve percentages are based on estimated loss rates supported by historical observed default rates over the expected life of the receivable and are adjusted for forward-looking information. The Company also specifically analyzes the collectability of each account with a balance over a specified dollar amount, based upon the age of the account, the patron's financial condition, collection history and any other known information and adjusts the aforementioned reserve with the results from the individual reserve analysis. The Company also monitors regional and global economic conditions and forecasts in its evaluation of the adequacy of the recorded reserves. Account balances are written off against the provision when the Company believes it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.

____________________
(1)Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of its operations with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA.
Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, consolidated adjusted property EBITDA as presented by the Company may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
(2)During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $16 million and $18 million, respectively, of which $10 million and $9 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $58 million and $47 million, respectively, of which $33 million and $27 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

[1] Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of its operations with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA. Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, consolidated adjusted property EBITDA as presented by the Company may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
[2] During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $16 million and $18 million, respectively, of which $10 million and $9 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $58 million and $47 million, respectively, of which $33 million and $27 million, respectively, was included in corporate expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
[3] Intercompany eliminations include royalties and other intercompany services.
