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, 2019, 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.
COVID-19 Pandemic
In early January 2020, an outbreak of a respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus was identified and the disease has since spread rapidly across the world causing the World Health Organization to declare the outbreak of a pandemic on March 12, 2020 (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”). As a result, people across the globe have been advised to avoid non-essential travel. Steps have also been taken by various countries, including those in which we operate, to restrict inbound international travel and implement closures of non-essential operations to contain the spread of the virus.
Macao
Visitation to Macao has decreased substantially, driven by various government policies limiting travel. The China Individual Visit Scheme to Macao (“China IVS”) and group tour schemes have been suspended, and a complete ban on entry, or a need to undergo enhanced quarantine requirements depending on the person’s residency and their recent travel history, has been enacted by the government for Macao residents, citizens of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong residents, foreigner workers residing in Macao and international travelers.
The Macao government suspended all gaming operations beginning on February 5, 2020. The Company’s Macao casino operations resumed on February 20, 2020, except for casino operations at Sands Cotai Central, which resumed on February 27, 2020. Certain health safeguards, however, such as limiting the number of seats per table game, slot machine spacing, temperature checks, mask protection and health declarations, remain in effect at the present time. The Company is currently unable to determine when these measures will be modified or cease to be necessary.
Some of the Company’s Macao hotel facilities were also closed during the casino suspension in response to the drop in visitation and, with the exception of the Conrad Macao Cotai Strip at Sands Cotai Central (the “Conrad hotel”), these hotels were gradually reopened from February 20, 2020, in line with operational needs and demand. The Conrad hotel reopened on June 13, 2020. Additionally, on March 28, 2020, in support of the Macao government’s initiatives to fight the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Company provided one tower (approximately 2,000 hotel rooms) at the Sheraton Grand Macao Hotel, Cotai Strip at Sands Cotai Central to the Macao government to house Macao citizens and others upon their initial return from other jurisdictions for quarantine. The use of this tower by the Macao government ceased on May 1, 2020, but was subsequently reactivated on June 7, 2020.
A limited number of restaurants across the Company’s Macao properties have reopened. The majority of retail outlets in the Company’s various shopping malls are open with reduced operating hours. The timing and manner in which these areas will return to full operation are currently unknown.
The Hong Kong government temporarily closed the Hong Kong China Ferry Terminal in Kowloon on January 30, 2020, and the Hong Kong Macao Ferry Terminal in Hong Kong on February 4, 2020. In response, the Company suspended its Macao ferry operations between Macao and Hong Kong. The timing and manner in which the Company’s normal ferry operations will be able to resume are currently unknown.

(UNAUDITED)
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao on a monthly basis decreased by 14.9% (with an 83.3% decrease in visitation over the first seven days of Chinese New Year) in January 2020 and decreased in a range of 96.3% to 99.6% in February to May 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019. It also announced monthly gross gaming revenue decreased by 11.3% in January 2020 and decreased in a range of 79.7% to 97.0% in February to June 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.
Singapore
Beginning on April 7, 2020, the Singapore government suspended all casino and non-essential operations, including all operations at Marina Bay Sands, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Company’s Singapore operations were permitted to reopen beginning on June 19, 2020; however, this only included certain restaurants and the retail mall operations. The casino operations reopened on July 1, 2020; however, entry was initially limited to annual levy holders and certain Sands Rewards Club (“SRC”) members. As of July 9, 2020, the casino opened to all SRC members. All operations are currently subject to limited capacities.
On May 28, 2020, in support of the Singapore government’s initiatives to fight the COVID-19 Pandemic, Marina Bay Sands entered into an agreement with the Singapore government to utilize all three hotel towers to house Singapore citizens upon their initial return from other jurisdictions for quarantine. The government’s use of the first tower ceased on June 26, 2020, while usage of the second and third towers will continue through July 26, 2020. Additionally, beginning on July 17, 2020, the first tower reopened for normal operations. The date on which convention and nightlife venues may reopen is unknown at this time.
In the months leading up to the closure, visitation to Marina Bay Sands declined. The Singapore Tourism Board announced for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the total change in visitation decreased approximately 64%, as compared to the same periods in 2019. Total visitation decreased by approximately 100% in April and May 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.
Las Vegas
On March 17, 2020, the Nevada government suspended all casino and non-essential operations, including all operations at the Las Vegas Operating Properties, beginning on March 18, 2020, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. On May 28, 2020, the Nevada government announced casinos could reopen on June 4, 2020, under strict guidelines issued by the Gaming Control Board and the State of Nevada. The Company opened the casino, suites within The Venetian Tower and The Palazzo Tower, and select food and beverage outlets on June 4, 2020, with certain operations subject to reduced capacity. Convention, meeting and certain entertainment related operations remain closed.
Visitation to the Company’s Las Vegas Operating properties declined in the months leading up to the closure. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority announced for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the total change in visitation decreased 18.3%, as compared to the same period in 2019. Total visitation decreased by 97% and 95.9% in April and May 2020, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2019. It also announced for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, gross gaming revenue for the Las Vegas Strip decreased 12.4%, as compared to the same periods in 2019. Total gross gaming revenue decreased by 99.3% in April and May 2020, as compared to the same periods in 2019.
Summary
The disruptions arising from the COVID-19 Pandemic had a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The duration and intensity of this global health emergency and related disruptions are uncertain. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition in 2020 will be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time as it is unknown when the COVID-19 Pandemic will end, when or how quickly the current travel restrictions will be modified or cease to be necessary and the resulting impact on the Company’s business and the willingness of tourism customers to spend on travel and entertainment and business customers to spend on meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibitions (“MICE”).

LVSC Revolving Facility
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $ 1.50 billion of available borrowing capacity under the LVSC Revolving Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit.
SCL Senior Notes
On June 4, 2020, Sands China Ltd. (“SCL”) issued, in a private offering, two series of senior unsecured notes in an aggregate principal amount of $ 1.50 billion, consisting of $ 800 million of 3.800 % Senior Notes due January 8, 2026 (the “2026 SCL Senior Notes”) and $ 700 million of 4.375 % Senior Notes due June 18, 2030 (the “2030 SCL Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the offering will be used for incremental liquidity and general corporate purposes. There are no interim principal payments on the 2026 or 2030 SCL Senior Notes and interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 8 and July 8, commencing on January 8, 2021, with respect to the 2026 SCL Senior Notes, and on June 18 and December 18, commencing on December 18, 2020, with respect to the 2030 SCL Senior Notes.
The 2026 and 2030 SCL Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of SCL. Each series of notes rank equally in right of payment with all of SCL’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and will rank senior in right of payment to all of SCL’s future subordinated debt, if any. The notes will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of SCL’s future secured debt (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt) and will be structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities of SCL’s subsidiaries. None of SCL’s subsidiaries guarantee the notes.
The 2026 and 2030 SCL Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated June 4, 2020 (the “Indenture”), between SCL and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Indenture contains covenants, subject to customary exceptions and qualifications, that limit the ability of SCL and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of SCL’s assets on a consolidated basis. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default.

During March 2020, SCL entered into a waiver and amendment request letter (the “Waiver Letter”) with respect to certain provisions of the 2018 SCL Credit Facility, pursuant to which lenders (a) waived the requirements for SCL to comply with the requirements that SCL ensure the maximum consolidated leverage ratio does not exceed 4.0 x and minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 2.5 x for any quarterly period ending during the period beginning on, and including, January 1, 2020 and ending on, and including, July 1, 2021 (the “Relevant Period”) (other than with respect to the financial year ended on December 31, 2019); (b) waived any default that may arise as a result of any breach of said requirements during the Relevant Period (other than with respect to the financial year ended on December 31, 2019); and (c) extended the period of time during which SCL may supply the agent with (i) its audited consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended on December 31, 2019, to April 30, 2020; and (ii) its audited consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending on December 31, 2020, to April 30, 2021. Pursuant to the Waiver Letter, SCL agreed to pay a customary fee to the lenders that consented.
As of June 30, 2020, SCL had $ 2.02 billion of available borrowing capacity under the 2018 SCL Revolving Facility comprised of Hong Kong dollar commitments ( 13.81 billion Hong Kong dollars or “HKD,” approximately $ 1.78 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2020) and U.S. dollar commitments ($ 237 million).
2012 Singapore Credit Facility
On June 18, 2020, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd. (“MBS” or the “Borrower”), entered into an amendment letter (the “Amendment Letter”) with DBS Bank Ltd. (“DBS”), as agent. The Amendment Letter amends the facility agreement originally dated as of June 25, 2012 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified, the “Facility Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders party thereto, DBS, as the agent, and the other parties thereto.
The Amendment Letter (a) modifies the financial covenant provisions under the Facility Agreement such that the Borrower will not have to comply with the leverage or interest coverage covenants for the financial quarters

ending, and including, September 30, 2020 through, and including, December 31, 2021 (the “Waiver Period”); (b) extends to June 30, 2021, the deadline for delivering the construction costs estimate and the construction schedule, in each case for the MBS expansion project; and (c) permits the Borrower to make dividend payments during the Waiver Period of (i) an unlimited amount if the ratio of its debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA is lower than or equal to 4.25 to 1 and (ii) up to SGD 500 million per fiscal year if the ratio of its debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA is higher than 4.25 to 1, subject to the additional requirements that (a) the aggregate amount of the Borrower’s cash plus Facility B availability is greater than or equal to SGD 800 million immediately following such dividend payment and (b) the Borrower’s interest coverage ratio is higher than 3.00 to 1. Pursuant to the Amendment Letter, MBS agreed to pay a customary fee on June 19, 2020, to the lenders that consented thereto.
As of June 30, 2020, MBS had SGD 592 million (approximately $ 425 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2020) of available borrowing capacity under the 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, primarily consisting of a banker’s guarantee pursuant to a development agreement for SGD 153 million (approximately $ 110 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2020).
There were no loans borrowed under the Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility as of June 30, 2020.
Debt Covenant Compliance
As of June 30, 2020, management believes the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

$ ( 435 ) $ ( 51 )
Fair Value of Long-Term Debt
The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was approximately $ 14.39 billion and $ 13.21 billion, respectively, compared to its contractual value of $ 13.95 billion and $ 12.58 billion, respectively. 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).
Note 3 — Derivative Instruments
In August 2018, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements (the “IR Swaps”), which qualified and were designated as fair value hedges, swapping fixed-rate for variable-rate interest to hedge changes in the fair value of the SCL Senior Notes issued in August 2018. These IR Swaps have a total notional value of $ 5.50 billion and terminate in August 2020 .
The total fair value of the IR Swaps as of June 30, 2020, was $ 73 million. In the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, $ 13 million was recorded as an asset in prepaid expenses and other with an equal corresponding adjustment recorded against the carrying value of the related SCL Senior Notes issued in August

2018, which adjustment represents the fair value of the additional interest income expected to be received subsequent to June 30, 2020, for the remaining term of the IR Swaps. The remaining $ 60 million was recorded as a receivable in accounts receivable, net. The fair value of the IR Swaps was estimated using level 1 inputs obtained directly from the contractual counterparties, as the final rate set was completed in May 2020 and no uncertainty in the outcome of the derivatives remains. Gains and losses due to changes in fair value of the IR Swaps completely offset changes in the fair value of the hedged portion of the underlying debt. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $ 25 million and $ 40 million reduction to interest expense, respectively, related to the realized amount associated with the IR Swaps, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a $ 3 million and $ 5 million reduction to interest expense, respectively.
Note 4 — 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 customers following background checks and investigations of creditworthiness. The Company also extends credit to gaming promoters in Macao. These receivables can be offset against commissions payable to the respective gaming promoters. 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 customers and gaming promoters residing 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 as the Company has a large number of customers. 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 customer'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.
Credit or marker play was 26.4 %, 14.7 % and 69.9 % of table games play at the Company’s Macao properties, Marina Bay Sands and Las Vegas Operating Properties, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company’s provision for casino credit losses was 38.8 % and 32.3 % of gross casino receivables as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company’s provision for credit losses from its hotel and other receivables is not material.

Impacts of Adoption
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the guidance under the accounting standard update (“ASU”) issued in June 2016 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The ASU revised the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. The adoption, which was applied on a modified retrospective basis, did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and therefore did not result in an adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020.
Customer Contract Related Liabilities
The Company provides numerous products and services to its customers. There is often a timing difference between the cash payment by the customers and recognition of revenue for each of the associated performance obligations. The Company has the following main types of liabilities associated with contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, (2) loyalty program liability and (3) customer deposits and other deferred revenue for gaming and non-gaming products and services yet to be provided.

Litigation

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 February 5, 2007, Asian American Entertainment Corporation, Limited (“AAEC” or “Plaintiff”) brought a claim (the “Prior Action”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada (the “U.S. District Court”) against Las Vegas Sands, Inc. (now known as Las Vegas Sands, LLC (“LVSLLC”)), Venetian Casino Resort, LLC (“VCR”) and Venetian Venture Development, LLC, which are subsidiaries of the Company, and William P. Weidner and David Friedman, who are former executives of the Company. The Prior Action sought damages based on an alleged breach of agreements entered into between AAEC and the aforementioned 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. The U.S. District Court entered an order dismissing the Prior Action on April 16, 2010.

(UNAUDITED)
On January 19, 2012, AAEC filed another claim (the “Macao Action”) with the Macao Judicial Court (Tribunal Judicial de Base) against VML, LVS (Nevada) International Holdings, Inc. (“LVS (Nevada)”), LVSLLC and VCR (collectively, the “Defendants”). The claim was for 3.0 billion patacas (approximately $ 376 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2020). The Macao Action 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 July 4, 2012, the Defendants filed their defense to the Macao Action with the Macao Judicial Court and amended the defense on January 4, 2013.
On March 24, 2014, the Macao Judicial Court issued a Decision (Despacho Seneador) holding that AAEC’s claim against VML is unfounded and that VML be removed as a party to the proceedings, and the claim should proceed exclusively against the U.S. Defendants. On May 8, 2014, AAEC lodged an appeal against that decision.
On June 5, 2015, the U.S. Defendants applied to the Macao Judicial Court to dismiss the claims against them as res judicata based on the dismissal of the Prior Action. On March 16, 2016, the Macao Judicial Court dismissed the defense of res judicata. An appeal against that decision was lodged by U.S. Defendants on April 7, 2016. As of the end of December 2016, all appeals (including VML’s dismissal and the res judicata appeals) were being transferred to the Macao Second Instance Court. On May 11, 2017, the Macao Second Instance Court notified the parties of its decision of refusal to deal with the appeals at the present time. The Macao Second Instance Court ordered the court file be transferred back to the Macao Judicial Court. Evidence gathering by the Macao Judicial Court commenced by letters rogatory, which was completed on March 14, 2019, and the trial of this matter was scheduled for September 2019.
On July 15, 2019, AAEC submitted a request to the Macao Judicial Court to increase the amount of its claim to 96.45 billion patacas (approximately $ 12.08 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2020), allegedly representing lost profits from 2004 to 2018, and reserving its right to claim for lost profits up to 2022 in due course at the enforcement stage.
On September 2, 2019, the U.S. Defendants moved to revoke the legal aid granted to AAEC, which excuses AAEC from paying its share of court costs. On September 4, 2019, the Macao Judicial Court deferred ruling on the U.S. Defendants’ motion regarding legal aid until the entry of final judgment. The U.S. Defendants appealed that deferral on September 17, 2019. On September 26, 2019, the Macao Judicial Court rejected that appeal on procedural grounds; The U.S. Defendants requested clarification of that order on October 29, 2019. By order dated December 4, 2019, the Macao Judicial Court stated it would reconsider the U.S. Defendants’ motion to revoke legal aid and, as part of that reconsideration, it would reanalyze portions of the record, seek an opinion from the Macao Public Prosecutor regarding the propriety of legal aid and consult with the trial court overseeing AAEC’s separate litigation against Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd., Galaxy Entertainment Group S.A. and Messrs. Weidner and Friedman, individually. The Macao Judicial Court denied the motion to revoke legal aid on January 14, 2020.
On September 4, 2019, the Macao Judicial Court allowed AAEC’s request to increase the amount of its claim. On September 17, 2019, the U.S. Defendants appealed the decision granting AAEC’s request. On September 26, 2019, the Macao Judicial Court accepted that appeal and it is currently pending before the Macao Second Instance Court.
On June 18, 2020, the U.S. Defendants moved to reschedule the trial, which had been scheduled to begin on September 16, 2020, due to travel disruptions and other extraordinary circumstances resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic. The Macao Judicial Court granted that motion and rescheduled the trial to begin on June 16, 2021.
The Macao 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.

LAS VEGAS SANDS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
____________________
(1) The Company completed the sale of Sands Bethlehem on May 31, 2019 .
(2) Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income/loss 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 on sale of Sands Bethlehem, 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.
