Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
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 Quarterly Report on 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
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao increased approximately 19.3% during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. The Macao government also announced gross gaming revenue increased 4.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024 .
Singapore
Airlift passenger movement has increased with a total of 35 million passengers having passed through Singapore’s Changi Airport for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 5.1% compared to the same period in 2024 .
The Singapore Tourism Board (“STB”) announced total visitation to Singapore was 8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 1.9% from the same period in 2024 .
Summary
Our Macao operations continue to face a competitive casino operating environment, with adjusted property EBITDA having increased $5 million compared with the three months ended June 30, 2024 and having decreased $70 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Our Singapore operations continue to generate record adjusted property EBITDA, having increased $256 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $264 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, with the key driver being an increase in gross gaming revenue.
We have a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity in place, including total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $3.45 billion as of June 30, 2025 and access to $1.50 billion, $2.48 billion and $461 million of available borrowing capacity from our 2024 LVSC Revolving Facility, 2024 SCL Revolving Facility and 2025 Singapore Revolving Facility, respectively. We believe we are able to support our continuing operations, complete the major construction projects that are underway and maintain our share repurchase and dividend programs to continue to return excess capital to stockholders.

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 3.30% in Macao and 3.70% in Singapore, and our Non-Rolling Chip table games have produced a trailing 12-month win percentage of 23.8%, 22.3%, 21.0%, 23.2%, 15.9% and 22.1% 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 3.7%, 3.8%, 3.9%, 2.5%, 2.9% and 4.2% 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, 8.7% and 11.9%, respectively, of our table games play was conducted on a credit basis for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
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. 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 sum of 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.

Consolidated net revenues were $3.18 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $414 million compared to $2.76 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to increases of $372 million and $42 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively.
Net casino revenues increased $380 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to increases of $362 million and $18 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively. Casino revenues at Marina Bay Sands increased due to overall increases in table games and slot activity, and increased win and hold percentages. Casino revenues at our Macao operations increased due to increases in the Rolling Chip win percentage and slot handle, partially offset by a decrease in Rolling Chip volume.

N.M. — Not meaningful.
(1) Rolling Chip tables were made available based on demand beginning in March 2024.
(2) During the prior year, a majority of the slot machines were relocated to other properties, with the remaining slot machines reserved for high-end patrons.
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 $32 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to increases of $22 million and $10 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively. The increase at our Macao operations was due to increases in ADR and occupancy, partially offset by a decrease in available rooms in connection with the conversion of the Sheraton towers to the Londoner Grand. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was due to an increase in ADR, partially offset by a decrease in available rooms due to reduced inventory upon the phased completion of room renovations, which began in 2024 and concluded in May 2025. The following table summarizes the results of our room activity:

Mall revenues increased $13 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $9 million in our Macao operations was primarily driven by increases of $8 million in overage rent and $1 million in revenues related to common area maintenance (“CAM”). The $4 million increase at Marina Bay Sands was due to a $4 million increase in base rent.

(1) Due to gross leasable area being taken off the market and not available for leasing, approximately 49,000 and 37,000 square feet of space at the Shoppes at Londoner and the Shoppes at Parisian, respectively, was removed during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and approximately 14,000 square feet of space at the Shoppes at Four Seasons was removed during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Convention, retail and other revenues decreased $10 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to decreases of $6 million and $4 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively. The decrease at Marina Bay Sands was primarily driven by an $8 million nonrecurring adjustment recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2024, related to a change in accounting estimate of our non-gaming club points accrual. The decrease at our Macao operations was primarily due to a $4 million decrease in entertainment driven by the type of events held during the second quarter of 2025.

Loss on disposal or impairment of assets 8 16 (50.0) %
Total operating expenses $ 2,392 $ 2,170 10.2 %
Operating expenses were $2.39 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $222 million compared to $2.17 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $101 million in casino expenses, $55 million in depreciation and amortization, and $24 million in general and administrative expenses.
Casino expenses increased $101 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to increases of $78 million and $23 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively. These increases were primarily attributable to increased gaming taxes of $66 million and $4 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, due to increased gross gaming revenues, as well as increases in casino marketing and payroll and related expenses.
Room expenses increased $10 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to increases of $6 million and $4 million at our Macao operations and Marina Bay Sands, respectively, consistent with increased business volume driven by increased occupancy in Macao and higher costs associated with new and elevated suites and rooms introduced at Marina Bay Sands.
Provision for credit losses was $16 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The $12 million increase was primarily due to increases of $6 million each at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations. The increase at Marina Bay Sands resulted from a $5 million increase in provision during the current quarter and a $1 million decrease in settlements of previously reserved accounts. The increase at our Macao operations resulted from a $4 million decrease in settlements of previously reserved accounts and a $2 million increase in provision during the current quarter. 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 $24 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $22 million and $2 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, primarily due to increases in payroll, marketing and property taxes in Singapore.
Pre-opening expenses were $9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the increase was primarily due to marketing and media expenses for the Londoner Grand.
Development expenses were $69 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $61 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the increase was primarily due to increased efforts related to our digital gaming pursuits. Development costs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation and amortization increased $55 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to increases of $43 million and $12 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was a result of the completion of renovations that were placed into service throughout 2024 and the first half of 2025. The increase at our Macao operations was a result of an increase of $35 million in depreciation from new assets placed into service from

the third quarter of 2024 and onward, mainly related to the Londoner Grand and The Venetian Arena, partially offset by a $23 million decrease in depreciation due to assets fully depreciated related to Phase II of the Londoner Macao project and other assets fully depreciated during the prior year and the first half of the current year.
Loss on disposal or impairment of assets was $8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The losses incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2025, were primarily due to $6 million in asset disposals related to an aircraft remodeling at Corporate.

__________________________
(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) 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, including LVSC, 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 LVSC, 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.

Interest cost increased $7 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in our weighted average total debt balance, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate. The weighted average total debt balance increased primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of the LVSC Senior Notes on May 6, 2025, and from the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility to fund our share repurchases and the payment due to the Singapore government, pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, related to the Additional Gaming Area. This was partially offset by repayment of the $500 million 2.900% LVSC Senior Notes due June 2025. The weighted average interest rate decreased primarily due to lower interest rates on the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility, partially offset by higher rates on the LVSC Senior Notes issued in May 2025.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Interest income was $42 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $80 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was attributable to a decrease in cash available to invest due to share repurchases, dividend payments and development-related spend in the last twelve months.
Other expense was $22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to other income of $11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Other expense during the three months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily attributable to foreign

currency transaction losses related to the early redemption of the remaining outstanding balance of the 5.125% SCL Senior Notes due August 2025 of $1.63 billion, foreign currency remeasurement losses on U.S. dollar denominated debt held by SCL, and a debt investment impairment loss.
Our income tax expense was $90 million on income before income taxes of $609 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, resulting in a 14.8% effective income tax rate. This compares to a 14.5% effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on our Singapore operations, a 21% corporate income tax on our domestic operations and a zero percent rate on our Macao gaming operations due to our income tax exemption in Macao.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted the budget reconciliation bill H.R. 1 referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB”). The OBBB includes significant changes to U.S. income tax laws, including tax cut extensions and modifications to the international tax framework, that may impact us. Management is still in the process of evaluating the OBBB and an estimate of the financial impact cannot be made at this time.
The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $58 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $71 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. These amounts were related to the noncontrolling interest of SCL.

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 $26 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to increases of $13 million each at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations. Marina Bay Sands room revenues increased primarily due to an increase in ADR, partially offset by a decrease in available rooms due to reduced inventory upon the phased completion of the room renovations, which began in 2024 and concluded in May 2025. Macao room revenues increased due to increases in ADR and occupancy, partially offset by a decrease in available rooms in connection with the conversion of the Sheraton towers to the Londoner Grand.

Food and beverage revenues decreased $10 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was driven by a $12 million decrease at our Macao operations, partially offset by a $2 million increase at Marina Bay Sands. The decrease at our Macao operations was driven by decreased business volume from banquet operations and at various outlets. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was driven by new outlets, which opened in the second half of 2024.
Mall revenues increased $25 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $18 million at our Macao operations was primarily driven by increases of $12 million in overage rent, $4 million in base rent and $2 million in revenues related to CAM. The $7 million increase related to Marina Bay Sands was driven by a $9 million increase in base rent and revenues related to CAM, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in overage rent.

Convention, retail and other revenues decreased $3 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to a decrease of $4 million at Marina Bay Sands, partially offset by an increase of $1 million at our Macao operations. The decrease at Marina Bay Sands was driven by an $8 million nonrecurring adjustment during the three months ended June 30, 2024, related to a change in accounting estimate of our non-gaming club points accrual and $3 million decrease in entertainment, partially offset by increases of $2 million in convention revenue and $5 million in other revenues (e.g., limo, SkyPark, spa). The increase at our Macao operations was due to increases of $2 million in ferry operations due to increased sailings resulting from increased visitation, $2 million in entertainment revenue and $2 million in limo, partially offset by decreases of $4 million in other revenues (e.g., exhibits) and $1 million in convention revenue.

Total operating expenses $ 4,645 $ 4,412 5.3 %
Operating expenses were $4.65 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $233 million compared to $4.41 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $97 million in depreciation and amortization, $78 million in casino expenses, $24 million in development expense and $13 million in room expense.
Casino expenses increased $78 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to an increase of $82 million at Marina Bay Sands, partially offset by a decrease of $4 million at our Macao operations. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was primarily due to a $69 million increase in gaming taxes, consistent with increased gross gaming revenues. The decrease at our Macao operations was primarily due to a $37 million decrease in gaming taxes, consistent with decreased gross gaming revenues, partially offset by increases in casino marketing and payroll and related expenses.
Room expenses increased $13 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to increases of $9 million and $4 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, driven by higher costs associated with new and elevated suites and rooms introduced at Marina Bay Sands and increased occupancy in Macao.
Food and beverage expenses increased $6 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was due to increases of $5 million and $1 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively, driven by increased business volume at food outlets and banquets operations and new outlets that opened in the second half of 2024 at Marina Bay Sands.
Provision for credit losses was $21 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in provision was due to a $7 million increase at our Macao operations, partially offset by a $1 million decrease at Marina Bay Sands. The increase at our Macao operations was primarily due to $5 million in settlements from previously reserved accounts in the prior year, and a $2 million increase in the provision for the current period. The decrease at Marina Bay Sands was primarily due to a $1 million decrease in the provision for the current period. 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 $11 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $18 million at Marina Bay Sands, partially offset by a decrease of $7 million at our Macao operations. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was primarily due to increases in payroll, marketing and property taxes. The decrease at our Macao operations was primarily due to decreases in marketing and repairs and maintenance costs.
Corporate expenses decreased $5 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to $10 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024, related to a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government, which was finalized on February 7, 2024, and covers the years from 2023 to 2025, partially offset by an increase of $6 million in charitable contributions and licensing fees.

Pre-opening expenses were $13 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the increase was primarily due to marketing and media expenses for the Londoner Grand.
Development expenses were $138 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $114 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the increased costs were associated with increased efforts primarily related to our digital gaming pursuits. Development costs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation and amortization increased $97 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $85 million and $12 million at Marina Bay Sands and our Macao operations, respectively. The increase at Marina Bay Sands was primarily due to the completion of the room renovations that were placed into service throughout 2024 and the first half of 2025. The increase at our Macao operations was primarily due to $65 million in new assets placed into service from the third quarter of 2024 onward, mainly related to Phase II of the Londoner Macao project and The Venetian Arena, partially offset by a $55 million decrease in depreciation due to assets fully depreciated related to Phase II of The Londoner Macao project and other assets fully depreciated during the prior year and through the first half of the current year.
Loss on disposal or impairment of assets was $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $30 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

____________________
(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) 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, including LVSC, 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 LVSC, 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.

Adjusted property EBITDA at our Macao operations decreased $70 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to decreased casino and food and beverage revenues across our operations driven by increased competition for gross gaming revenues in Macao.
Adjusted property EBITDA at Marina Bay Sands increased $264 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased casino and room operations driven by the introduction of new and elevated suites and rooms and other amenities at Marina Bay Sands.

Interest cost was primarily impacted by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate from 5.0% to 4.8%, partially offset by an increase in the weighted average total debt balance from $14.40 billion to $14.86 billion. The weighted average interest rate decreased primarily due to lower interest rates on the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility, partially offset by higher rates on the LVSC Senior Notes issued in May 2025. The weighted average total debt balance increased primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of the LVSC Senior Notes on May 6, 2025, and from the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility to fund our share repurchases and the payment due to the Singapore government, pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, related to the Additional Gaming Area. This is partially offset by repayment of the $500 million 2.900% LVSC Senior Notes due June 2025.

Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Interest income was $84 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $151 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $67 million, which was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash available to invest due to share repurchases, dividend payments and development-related spend in the last twelve months.
Other expense was $23 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to other income of $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Other expense during the six months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily attributable to foreign currency transaction losses related to the early redemption of the remaining outstanding balance of the 5.125% SCL Senior Notes due August 2025 of $1.63 billion, foreign currency remeasurement losses on U.S. dollar denominated debt held by SCL and a debt investment impairment loss.
Our income tax expense was $153 million on income before income taxes of $1.08 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, resulting in a 14.2% effective income tax rate. This compares to an 8.1% effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025, reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on our Singapore operations, a 21% corporate income tax on our domestic operations, and a zero percent rate on our Macao gaming operations due to our income tax exemption in Macao. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024, reflects an income tax benefit of $57 million related to the reversal of the anticipated Macao shareholder dividend tax previously recorded, due to the shareholder dividend tax agreement entered into with the Macao government in February 2024 and covering the years from 2023 through 2025.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted the budget reconciliation bill H.R. 1 referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB”). The OBBB includes significant changes to U.S. income tax laws, including tax cut extensions and modifications to the international tax framework, that may impact us. Management is still in the process of evaluating the OBBB and an estimate of the financial impact cannot be made at this time.
The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $114 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $160 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. 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 provides 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 and other expenditures.

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) 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.
(3) 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 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.
Macao
As part of the gaming concession entered into by VML and the Macao government (the “Concession”), VML has committed to invest, or cause to be invested, at least 35.84 billion patacas (approximately $4.43 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2025). Of this total, 33.39 billion patacas (approximately $4.13 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2025) must be invested in non-gaming projects. These investments must be accomplished by December 2032.
Pursuant to the Concession, we have spent approximately $168 million on these projects for the year ended December 31, 2023. This amount was reviewed and confirmed as qualified spend under the Concession by the Macao government following an audit conducted in July 2024, with results issued in November 2024. The Macao government conducts an annual audit to confirm qualified concession investments for the prior year. As of the date of this filing, the audit process for our investments spent during the year ended December 31, 2024, has commenced.
Phase II of The Londoner Macao primarily includes the conversion of the Sheraton Grand Macao into the Londoner Grand, an upgrade of the gaming areas and the addition of attractions, dining, retail and entertainment offerings. The conversion of the Sheraton Grand Macao into the Londoner Grand is now complete and represents Macao’s first Marriott International Luxury Collection hotel. Construction of the newly renovated rooms and suites at the Londoner Grand was completed in early April 2025 and resulted in a total of 2,405 rooms and suites. These projects have a total estimated cost of $1.2 billion and were substantially completed during the first quarter of 2025.
Singapore
In April 2019, our 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 (the “MBS Expansion Project”) on a land parcel adjacent to Marina Bay Sands. The MBS Expansion Project will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, premium gaming areas, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats.
On January 8, 2025, MBS entered into a second supplemental agreement to the Second Development Agreement with the Singapore government (the “Second Supplemental Agreement”) whereby MBS committed to assume liability for the cost of the land premium associated with the additional 2,000 square meters of gaming area and 10,000 square meters of ancillary area in support of the gaming area (collectively, the “Additional Gaming Area”) as well as other adjustments to the land premiums resulting from the consequential changes to the allocations of gross floor area for the MBS Expansion Project since the first payment made in 2019 (the “Additional Land Premium”). These allocations prescribe and limit the use of the gross floor area for hotel, gaming, retail, food and beverage, MICE and arena at the MBS Expansion Project site. The Second Supplemental Agreement also formalized the dates by which MBS has agreed with the Singapore government to commence and complete construction of the MBS Expansion Project, being July 8, 2025 and July 8, 2029, respectively. Construction works for the project has commenced as of May 26, 2025, before the requisite commencement date under the Second Supplemental Agreement.
Our current estimate is that construction will be complete by June 2030 with an anticipated opening date in January 2031, any extension of the completion date beyond the July 8, 2029 deadline is subject to the approval of the Singapore government.
Our estimated total project cost is approximately $8.0 billion, inclusive of financing fees and interest, land premiums and the purchase of the additional 2,000 square meters of gaming area, increasing Marina Bay Sands’ total approved gaming area to 17,000 square meters across the existing property and the MBS Expansion Project.
We have incurred approximately $2.4 billion as of June 30, 2025, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS development project site and the payment of SGD 1.13 billion (approximately $848 million at exchange rates in effect at the time of the payment) for the Additional Gaming Area payment, which was made on April 2, 2025.

The Tower 3 hotel room renovations at Marina Bay Sands into world class suites are now complete and the Company is continuing to progress on other property renovations, which include the hotel lobby and SkyPark and additional retail, food and beverage and wellness offerings. As of June 30, 2025, we have incurred $405 million of the estimated $750 million cost to complete these projects, which are in addition to the MBS Expansion Project. The completion of the renovations of Towers 1, 2 and 3 has resulted in a total of 1,844 rooms including 775 suites.
New York
On June 2, 2023, we acquired the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum (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. 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. On April 23, 2025, we announced our decision to cease pursuit of a casino license from the state of New York in light of concerns regarding a lower anticipated return on investment due to various factors, including the impact of the potential legalization of online gaming on the New York market. We continue to consider potential acquirors and other development opportunities for the Nassau Coliseum site. There is no assurance we will be able to accomplish a sale or other development opportunity or to resolve certain matters associated with the right to lease the underlying land from Nassau County.

We continue to evaluate additional development projects in each of our markets and pursue new development opportunities globally.

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 operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, decreased $824 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in cash generated from operations was primarily related to the $848 million payment for MBS’ purchase of the Additional Gaming Area, a decrease in operating income from our Macao properties and a decrease in cash related to changes in working capital, partially offset by an increase in operating income from MBS.

Capital Financing Overview
We fund our development projects primarily through borrowings from our debt instruments and operating cash flows.
On February 21, 2025, MBS entered into a new facility agreement, the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility, which provides for a SGD 3.75 billion (approximately $2.94 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2025) term loan (the “2025 Singapore Term Loan Facility”) and makes available a SGD 750 million (approximately $588 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2025) revolving credit facility (the “2025 Singapore Revolving Facility”) and a SGD 7.50 billion (approximately $5.88 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2025) term loan facility (the “2025 Singapore Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility”). On February 28, 2025, MBS drew the full amount of the 2025 Singapore Term Loan Facility and SGD 62 million (approximately $46 million at exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction) from the 2025 Singapore Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility and used the proceeds to pay amounts outstanding under the 2012 Singapore Credit Facility. MBS may draw under the 2025 Singapore Revolving Facility to refinance outstanding indebtedness, pay certain fees, expenses and accrued interest, make dividend payments and for general corporate purposes. The proceeds from the 2025 Singapore Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility may be used to finance development and construction costs, expenses, fees and other payments related to the MBS Expansion Project. In connection with entering into the 2025 Singapore Credit Facility, the commitments under MBS’s amended and restated credit facility agreement, the 2012 Singapore Credit Facility, were terminated. Refer to “Part I — Item 1 — Financial Statements — Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 5 — Debt” for further details.
On April 1, 2025, MBS drew down an additional SGD 1.13 billion (approximately $848 million at exchange rates in effect at the time of the payment) from the 2025 Singapore Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility to fund the payment due to the Singapore government, pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, related to the Additional Gaming Area.
On May 6, 2025, in an underwritten public offering, we issued, two series of senior unsecured notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1.50 billion (see “Part I — Item 1 — Financial Statements — Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 5 — Debt”). The net proceeds from the offering were used to redeem in full the outstanding principal under the $500 million 2.900% LVSC Senior Notes due June 25, 2025 and any accrued interest, and to pay transaction-related fees and expenses. The remaining proceeds are being used for general corporate purposes, including share repurchases.
On June 5, 2025, we drew down HKD 12.75 billion (approximately $1.64 billion at exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction) under the 2024 SCL Term Loan Facility, in which the proceeds, together with cash on hand, were used to redeem in full the outstanding principal amount of $1.63 billion of the 5.125% SCL Senior Notes due August 8, 2025.

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 June 30, 2025, our U.S., SCL and Singapore leverage ratios, as defined per the respective credit facility agreements, were 1.49x, 3.36x and 1.71x, respectively, compared to the maximum leverage ratios allowed of 4.00x, 4.00x and 4.50x, 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.
We held unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $3.45 billion and restricted cash of $125 million as of June 30, 2025, of which approximately $1.59 billion of the unrestricted amount is held by non-U.S. subsidiaries. Of the $1.59 billion, approximately $1.33 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 $3.45 billion and cash flow generated from operations, as well as $4.45 billion available for borrowing under our U.S., SCL and Singapore revolving credit facilities, net of outstanding letters of credit.
We believe we are well positioned to support our 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.
On June 20, 2025, SCL paid a dividend of HKD 0.25 per share to SCL shareholders (a total of $261 million, of which we retained $190 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025).
On February 19 and May 14, 2025, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per common share as part of a regular cash dividend program and, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, recorded $354 million as a distribution against retained earnings. In July 2025, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per common share (a total estimated to be approximately $172 million) to be paid on August 13, 2025, to stockholders of record on August 5, 2025. We expect this level of dividend to continue quarterly through the remainder of 2025. Our Board of Directors will continue to assess the level of appropriateness of any cash dividends.
During December 2024 and April and June 2025, our wholly owned subsidiary, Venetian Venture Development Intermediate II (“VVDI II”), entered into three separate share purchase agreements with financial institutions (the “Agents”) for the purchase of the common stock of SCL (the “SCL Purchase Agreements”). Pursuant to the terms of the SCL Purchase Agreements, VVDI II made up-front payments totaling HKD 2.65 billion (HKD 800 million in December 2024 and HKD 1.85 billion during 2025) under the SCL Purchase Agreements (collectively, approximately $340 million at exchange rates as of the date of the transactions) to the Agents on December 4, 2024, April 25 and June 13, 2025, respectively.
The SCL Purchase Agreements allowed for the delivery of shares on a daily basis. The December and April SCL purchase transactions concluded on January 7 and June 13, 2025, respectively, with the June SCL Purchase Agreement still in progress. As of June 30, 2025, 107,895,839 shares (of which 25,112,000 shares were delivered during December 2024) in total of SCL common stock were delivered to the Company and an additional 17,959,600 shares were delivered from July 1 through July 23, 2025. The above represented a total average daily price of HKD 17.27 up to June 30, 2025 and HKD 18.50 from July 1 through July 23, 2025. The total additional shares delivered related to the these transactions resulted in an increase of our ownership of SCL to approximately 73.15% as of June 30, 2025, and 73.37% as of July 23, 2025.
Share Repurchase Program
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 30,295,410 shares of our common stock for $ 1.26 billion (including commissions and $ 12 million in excise tax) under our share repurchase program. On April 22, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized increasing the remaining share repurchase amount from $ 1.10 billion to $ 2.0 billion. All share repurchases of our common stock have been recorded as treasury stock. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining amount authorized under the share repurchase program was $ 1.20 billion.
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.
