−Removed: Allowance for Credit Losses on Casino Receivables
−Removed: Description of the Matter At December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable was $111.3 million, primarily consisting of casino receivables.
−Removed: As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, casino receivables primarily consist of credit issued to patrons in the form of markers and advances paid to gaming promoters.
−Removed: The Company records an estimated allowance for credit losses to reduce the Company’s receivables to their carrying amount, which reflects the net amount the Company expects to collect.
−Removed: The Company estimates the allowance based on specific review of customer and outstanding gaming promoter accounts taking into consideration the amount due from the patron and gaming promoters, the age of the account, the customer’s financial condition, as well as management’s experience with historical and current collection trends, current economic and business conditions, and management’s expectations of future economic and business conditions and forecasts.
−Removed: Auditing management’s estimate of the allowance for credit losses on casino receivables is complex due to the highly judgmental nature of the qualitative factors used to estimate the collectability of casino receivables and high degree of subjectivity in evaluating management’s judgments related to the collectability of patron accounts receivable.
−Removed: How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s allowance for credit losses process.
−Removed: For example, we tested controls over the issuance of markers to patrons, the collection processes and management’s review controls over the assessment of the expected collection of casino receivables and evaluation of the allowance for credit losses, including the information used by management in those controls.
−Removed: To test the allowance for credit losses, our audit procedures included, among others:
−Removed: testing management’s historical collections analysis by obtaining evidence related to the original issuance of the credit to patrons on a sample of casino accounts receivable and examining support for subsequent settlement, if any;
−Removed: corroborating management’s representations for specific provisions made for certain individual casino patrons with internal data and examination of publicly available information of the customers’ financial condition;
−Removed: evaluating management’s assumptions regarding future collectability in comparison to current business trends, third-party macroeconomic data and peer data;
−Removed: and evaluating management’s use of this information in establishing the allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2021.
−Removed: In addition, we performed sensitivity analyses over the Company's significant assumptions and evaluated the overall allowance for credit losses by performing a retrospective analysis of the Company’s historical estimates, which consisted of comparing the Company’s estimates to subsequent settlements and write-offs.
+Added: The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

+Added: Accounting for the sale and leaseback of real estate assets
+Added: Description of the Matter As described in Notes 1, 5 and 15 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company closed on a sale-leaseback arrangement with respect to certain real estate assets related to Encore Boston Harbor (the "EBH Transaction") during the year ended December 31, 2022.
+Added: Upon closing of the EBH Transaction, the Company received cash proceeds of approximately $1.7 billion in exchange for the sale of such real estate assets, recognized a gain on sale of $182.0 million, and concurrently entered into a lease agreement with respect to the sold assets for the purpose of continuing to operate the Encore Boston Harbor integrated resort.
+Added: Upon entering into the lease agreement, the Company recognized an operating lease asset and a corresponding operating lease liability of $1.5 billion.
+Added: Auditing management’s evaluation of the EBH Transaction was especially challenging due to the complexity in management’s assessment of (i) whether control of the underlying real estate assets was transferred by the Company and (ii) the lease classification as an operating or a finance lease.
+Added: Auditing these assessments made by management involved especially challenging auditor judgment, including the need to involve our valuation specialists.
+Added: How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over management’s assessment of the accounting for the EBH transaction, including controls over the significant judgments made in the assessment, estimates used in the assessment and the completeness and accuracy of data used by management.
+Added: To test the accounting for the EBH Transaction, our audit procedures included, among others, (i) inspection of the sale and leaseback agreements, (ii) evaluating the significant judgments made by management in the accounting assessment (e.g.
+Added: when control of the asset transferred to the buyer-lessor), and (iii) evaluating the classification of the lease under ASC 842, including evaluating the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by management.
+Added: With the assistance of our valuation specialists, we also tested the fair value of the property sold and the incremental borrowing rate used in the lease classification test by developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the estimates selected by management.

Recent Developments Related to COVID-19
Macau Operations
−Removed: Visitation to Macau has fallen significantly since the outbreak of COVID-19, driven by the strong deterrent effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and social activities, quarantine measures put in place in Macau and elsewhere, travel and entry restrictions and conditions in Macau, the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan involving COVID-19 testing, among other things, and the suspension or reduced accessibility of transportation to and from Macau.
−Removed: Beginning in June 2020, certain restrictions and conditions have eased to allow for visitation to Macau as some regions continue to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: Quarantine-free travel, subject to COVID-19 safeguards such as testing and the usual visa requirements, has been reintroduced between Macau and most areas and cities within the PRC, and in September 2020, PRC authorities fully resumed the IVS exit visa program, which permits individual PRC citizens from nearly 50 PRC cities to travel to Macau for tourism purposes.
−Removed: Given the evolving conditions created by and in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, measures that have been lifted may be reintroduced if there are adverse developments in the COVID-19 situation in Macau and other regions with access to Macau, and the Company is currently unable to determine when protective measures and the suspension of certain offerings in effect at our Macau Operations will be lifted.
−Removed: Given the uncertainty around the extent and timing of the potential future spread or mitigation of COVID-19 and around the imposition or relaxation of protective measures, management cannot reasonably estimate the impact to the Company's future results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

+Added: Since the outbreak of COVID-19, visitation to Macau has fallen significantly, driven by the strong deterrent effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and social activities, quarantine measures put in place in Macau and elsewhere, travel and entry restrictions and conditions in Macau, the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan involving COVID-19 testing and mandatory quarantine, among other things, periods of mandatory closure of certain businesses and facilities, including gaming operations, and the suspension or reduced accessibility of transportation to and from Macau.

+Added: Nevertheless, given the inherent uncertainty around the likelihood, extent, and timing of a potential reimposition of restrictions on the general public, travel, or certain activities, management is unable to reasonably predict whether such restrictions would impact the Company's properties in the future, or the extent such restrictions, if reimposed, would impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.
