NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

9 unchanged sentences

The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary.

Bellagio BREIT Venture (the landlord of Bellagio, which is a venture in which the Company has a 5 % ownership interest) and Osaka IR KK are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have power on its own to direct the activities that could potentially be significant to the ventures and, accordingly, does not consolidate the ventures.

The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary.

The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.

The Company has a 5 % ownership interest in the venture that owns and leases back the real estate assets of Bellagio (the “Bellagio BREIT Venture”).

Bellagio BREIT Venture is a VIE of which the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, accordingly, the Company does not consolidate the venture.

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss in Bellagio BREIT Venture is equal to the carrying value of its investment of $ 55 million as of September 30, 2023, assuming no future capital funding requirements, plus the exposure to loss resulting from the Company’s guarantee of the debt of Bellagio BREIT Venture, which guarantee is immaterial as of September 30, 2023, as further discussed in Note 9.

For entities determined not to be a VIE, the Company consolidates such entities in which the Company owns 100 % of the equity.

For entities in which the Company owns less than 100 % of the equity interest, the Company consolidates the entity under the voting interest model if it has a controlling financial interest based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements, such as MGM China.

For entities in which the Company owns less than 100 % of the equity interest, the Company consolidates the

entity under the voting interest model if it has a controlling financial interest based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements, such as MGM China.

Revenue by source.

The Company presents the revenue earned disaggregated by the type or nature of the good or service (casino, room, food and beverage, and entertainment, retail and other) and by relevant geographic region within Note 11.

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception or modification of the arrangement.

An arrangement is or contains a lease if there are identified assets and the right to control the use of an identified asset is conveyed for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company classifies a lease with terms greater than twelve months as either operating or finance.

At commencement, the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term.

The initial measurement of ROU assets also includes any prepaid lease payments and are reduced by any previously accrued deferred rent.

When available, such as for the Company’s triple-net operating leases for which the lessor has provided its implicit rate or provided the assumptions required for the Company to readily determine the rate implicit in the lease, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value.

However, for most of the Company’s leases, such as its ground subleases and equipment leases, the Company cannot readily determine the implicit rate.

Accordingly, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments for such leases based on the information available at the commencement date.

Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such option will be exercised.

The Company’s triple-net operating leases each contain renewal periods at the Company’s option, each of which are not considered to be reasonably certain of being exercised.

Many of the Company’s leases include fixed rental escalation clauses that are factored into the determination of lease payments.

For operating leases, lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

For finance leases, the ROU asset depreciates on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the ROU asset and the lease liability accretes interest based on the interest method using the discount rate determined at lease commencement.

Refer to Note 8 for discussion of leases under which the Company is a lessee.

Refer to Note 7 for information regarding leases under which the Company is a lessee.

VICI Transaction.

Prior to the closing of the VICI Transaction (defined below), MGM Growth Properties LLC (“MGP”) was a consolidated subsidiary of the Company.

Substantially all of its assets were owned by and substantially all of its operations were conducted through MGM Growth Properties Operating Partnership LP ("MGP OP”).

MGP had two classes of common shares:

Class A shares and a single Class B share.

The Company owned MGP’s Class B share, through which it held a controlling interest in MGP as it was entitled to an amount of votes representing a majority of the total voting power of MGP’s shares.

The Company and MGP each held MGP OP units representing limited partner interests in MGP OP.

Additionally, the Company had leased the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor, MGM Northfield Park, and MGM Springfield from MGP OP.

The Company also leased, and continues to lease,

the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas from subsidiaries of a venture that was 50.1 % owned by a subsidiary of MGP OP at the time of the transaction (such venture, the “MGP BREIT Venture”).

On April 29, 2022, VICI Properties Inc.

(“VICI”) acquired MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction (such transaction, the “VICI Transaction”).

MGP Class A shareholders received 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and the Company received 1.366 units of VICI OP in exchange for each MGP OP unit held by the Company.

The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $ 43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021.

In connection with the exchange, VICI OP redeemed the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $ 4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate 1 % ownership interest in VICI OP that had a fair value of approximately $ 375 million.

MGP’s Class B share that was held by the Company was cancelled.

Accordingly, the Company no longer held a controlling interest in MGP and deconsolidated MGP upon the closing of the transactions.

Further, the Company entered into an amended and restated master lease with VICI as discussed in Note 8.

The Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas lease remained unchanged.

In connection with the transactions, the Company recognized a $ 2.3 billion gain recorded within “Gain on REIT transactions, net.” The gain reflects the fair value of consideration received of $ 4.8 billion plus the carrying amount of noncontrolling interest immediately prior to the transactions of $ 3.2 billion less the net carrying value of the assets and liabilities and accumulated comprehensive income derecognized of $ 5.7 billion.

At closing, the master lease between the Company and VICI was amended to remove Gold Strike Tunica and to reflect a $ 40 million reduction in annual cash rent.

NOTE 13 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Prior to the closing of the VICI Transaction, the Company leased the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor, MGM Northfield Park, and MGM Springfield pursuant to a master lease with MGP.

The annual cash rent payments under the master lease with MGP for the seventh lease year, which commenced on April 1, 2022, increased to $ 877 million from $ 873 million, due to the sixth 2 % annual base rent escalator that went into effect on April 1, 2022, as the adjusted net revenue to rent ratio on which such escalator was contingent was met, which increased annual cash rent by $ 16 million, partially offset by the percentage rent reset that went into effect on April 1, 2022, calculated based on the percentage of average actual annual net revenue of the leased properties during the preceding five year period, which decreased annual cash rent by $ 12 million.

All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the MGP master lease, have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidation of MGP.
