Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which, except as otherwise described in Note 2 below, include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been made.

necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and entities the Company identifies as a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. For information on the Company's VIEs, see Note 12, "Retail Joint Venture." All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to be consistent with current year presentation. Such reclassifications relate to the adoption of new accounting guidance as further described below in "Recently Adopted Accounting Standards" and had no effect on the previously reported net income.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and include both U.S. dollar-denominated and foreign-currency denominated securities. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consisted of the following (in thousands):


	March 31, 2018		December 31, 2017		September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash (1)	$	1,199,697	$	2,354,244	$	1,521,691	$	2,354,244
Cash equivalents (2)	831,965		450,230		427,562		450,230
	2,031,662		2,804,474		1,949,253		2,804,474
Restricted cash (3)	2,017		2,160		3,747		2,160
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	2,033,679	$	2,806,634	$	1,953,000	$	2,806,634

(1) Cash consists of cash on hand and bank deposits.

(2) Cash equivalents consist of bank time deposits and money market funds.

(3) Restricted cash consists of cash collateral associated with an obligation and cash held in a trust in accordance with WML's share award plan.

Investment Securities

Investment securities consist of domestic and foreign short-term and long-term investments in corporate bonds reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income (loss). Short-term investments have a maturity date of less than one year and long-term investments are those with a maturity date greater than one year. The Company limits the amount of exposure to any one issuer with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. Management determines the appropriate classification of its securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Adjustments are made for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity computed under the effective interest method. Such amortization is included in interest income together with realized gains and losses and the stated interest on such securities.

The Company obtains pricing information in determining the fair value of its available-for-sale securities from independent pricing vendors. Based on management's inquiries, the pricing vendors use various pricing models consistent with what other market participants would use. The assumptions and inputs used by the pricing vendors are derived from market observable sources including: reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark curves, bids, offers and other market-related data. The Company has not made adjustments to such prices. Each quarter, the Company validates the fair value pricing methodology to determine if the fair value is consistent with applicable accounting guidance and to confirm that the securities are classified properly in the fair value hierarchy. The Company compares the pricing received from its vendors to independent sources for the same or similar securities.

Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of casino accounts receivable. The Company issues credit in the form of "markers" to approved casino customers following investigations of creditworthiness. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, approximately ~~84.6%~~84.3% and 81.7%, respectively, of the Company's markers were due from customers residing outside the United States, primarily in Asia. Business or economic conditions or other significant events in these countries could affect the collectability of such receivables.

Accounts receivable, including casino and hotel receivables, are typically non-interest bearing and are initially recorded at cost. An estimated allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to reduce the Company's receivables to their carrying amount, which approximates fair value. The allowance estimate reflects specific review of customer accounts and outstanding gaming promoter accounts as well as management's experience with historical and current collection trends and current economic and

In accordance with the terms of the Retail Term Loan Agreement (as defined in Note 6, "Long-Term Debt"), the Retail Borrowers (as defined in Note 6, "Long-Term Debt") entered into a five-year interest rate collar with a notional value of $615 million for a cash payment of $3.9 million in July 2018. The interest rate collar establishes a range whereby the Retail Borrowers will pay the counterparty if one-month LIBOR falls below the established floor rate of 1.00%, and the counterparty will pay the Retail Borrowers if one-month LIBOR exceeds the ceiling rate of 3.75%. The interest rate collar settles monthly commencing in August 2019 through the termination date in August 2024. No payments or receipts are exchanged on interest rate collar contracts unless interest rates rise above or fall below the pre-determined ceiling or floor rate, respectively. The Company measures the fair value of the interest rate collar at each balance sheet date based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which incorporates observable market inputs such as market volatility and interest rates, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. As of September 30, 2018, the fair value of the interest rate collar was $3.8 million and was recorded in other assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Redemption Note

On February 18, 2012, pursuant to its articles of incorporation, the Company redeemed and canceled all Aruze USA, Inc.’s ("Aruze") 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. In connection with the redemption of the shares, the Company issued a promissory note (the "Redemption Note") with a principal amount of $1.94 billion, a maturity date of February 18, 2022 and an interest rate of 2% per annum, payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. The Redemption Note was recorded at fair value in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. The Company repaid the principal amount in full on March 30, 2018. As of December 31, 2017, the fair value of the Redemption Note was $1.88 billion.

In determining this fair value, the Company estimated the Redemption Note's present value using discounted cash flows with a probability weighted expected return for redemption assumptions and a discount rate, which included time value and non-performance risk adjustments commensurate with the risk of the Redemption Note.

Considerations for the redemption assumptions included the stated maturity of the Redemption Note, uncertainty of the related cash flows, as well as potential effects of the following: uncertainties surrounding the potential outcome and timing of litigation with Aruze, Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Kazuo Okada (collectively, the "Okada Parties") (see Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies"); the outcome of ongoing investigations of Aruze by the U.S. Attorney's Office, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Nevada Gaming Control Board; and other potential legal and regulatory actions. In addition, in the furtherance of various future business objectives, the Company considered its ability, at its sole option, to prepay the Redemption Note at any time in accordance with its terms without penalty. Accordingly, the Company reasonably determined that the estimated life of the Redemption Note could be less than its contractual life.

In determining the appropriate discount rate to be used to calculate the estimated present value, the Company considered the Redemption Note's subordinated position and credit risk relative to all other debt in the Company's capital structure and credit ratings associated with the Company's traded debt. Observable inputs for the risk free rate were based on Federal Reserve rates for U.S. Treasury securities and the credit risk spread was based on a yield curve index of similarly rated debt.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue contracts with customers consist of casino wagers and sales of rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other goods and services.

Gross casino revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses. The Company applies a practical expedient by accounting for its casino wagering transactions on a portfolio basis versus an individual basis as all wagers have similar characteristics. Commissions rebated to customers either directly or indirectly through games promoters

~~(Unaudited)~~

and cash discounts and other cash incentives earned by customers are recorded as a reduction of casino revenues. In addition to the wager, casino transactions typically include performance obligations related to complimentary goods or services provided to incentivize future gaming or in exchange for points earned under the Company’s loyalty programs.

For casino transactions that include complimentary goods or services provided by the Company to incentivize future gaming, the Company allocates the standalone selling price of each good or service to the appropriate revenue type based on the good or service provided. Complimentary goods or services that are provided under the Company’s control and discretion and supplied by third parties are recorded as an operating expense.

The Company offers loyalty programs at both its Macau Operations and its Las Vegas Operations. Under the program at its Macau Operations, customers earn points based on their level of table games and slots play, which can be redeemed for free play, gifts and complimentary goods or services provided by the Company. Under the program at its Las Vegas Operations, customers earn points based on their level of slots play, which can be redeemed for free play. For casino transactions that include points earned under the Company’s loyalty programs, the Company defers a portion of the revenue by recording the estimated standalone selling price of the earned points that are expected to be redeemed as a liability. Upon redemption of the points for Company-owned goods or services, the standalone selling price of each good or service is allocated to the appropriate revenue type based on the good or service provided. Upon the redemption of the points with third parties, the redemption amount is deducted from the liability and paid directly to the third party.

After allocating amounts to the complimentary goods or services provided and to the points earned under the Company’s loyalty programs, the residual amount is recorded as casino revenue when the wager is settled.

The transaction price for rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other transactions is the net amount collected from the customer for such goods and services and is recorded as revenue when the goods are provided, services are performed or events are held. Sales tax and other applicable taxes collected by the Company are excluded from revenues. Advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales are performance obligations that are recorded as customer deposits until services are provided to the customer. Revenues from contracts with multiple goods or services are allocated to each good or service based on its relative standalone selling price. Entertainment, retail and other revenue also includes lease revenue, which is recognized on a time proportion basis over the lease term. Contingent lease revenue is recognized when the right to receive such revenue is established according to the lease agreements.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These accounting standards establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include:

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Revenue Recognition Standard

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the existing revenue recognition guidance and creates a new topic for Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance provides that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This guidance also substantially revises required interim and annual disclosures. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018, which resulted in the following significant impacts on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

The promotional allowances line item was eliminated from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of ~~Operations~~Income with the majority of the amount being netted against casino revenues.

The estimated cost of providing complimentary goods or services will no longer be allocated primarily to casino expenses from other operating departments as the new guidance requires revenues and expenses associated with providing complimentary goods or services to be classified based on the goods or services provided.

The portion of junket commissions previously recorded as a casino expense is now recorded as a reduction of casino revenue.

Mandatory service charges on food and beverage are now recorded on a gross basis with the amount received from the customer recorded as food and beverage revenue and the corresponding amount paid to employees recorded as food and beverage expense.

Certain prior period amounts have been ~~reclassified~~adjusted to reflect the full retrospective adoption of the guidance. There was no impact on the Company’s financial condition, operating income or net income.

Financial Instruments

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 824-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through net income (other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee). The update also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. This update eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet for public business entities. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018, which resulted in a $9.2 million cumulative unrealized loss, net of tax, being recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss with a corresponding increase to retained earnings. The adjustment represents the portion of the cumulative change in the Redemption Note fair value resulting from the change in the instrument-specific credit risk previously included in other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of ~~Operations.~~Income.

Restricted Cash

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash (Topic 230), which amends the existing guidance relating to the disclosure of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. The ASU requires that amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis and the updated disclosures are reflected for the periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2017, the change in restricted cash of ~~$189.9~~$190.1 million was previously reported within net cash used in financing activities.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), ~~which~~and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU No. 2017-13, ASU No. 2018-10, and ASU No. 2018-11 (collectively, "Topic 842"). Topic 842 amends the existing guidance relating to the definition of a lease, recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and the disclosure of key information about leasing activities. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet, measured on a discounted basis. Operating leases are currently not recognized on the balance sheet. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged, other than certain targeted improvements intended to align lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and with the updated revenue recognition guidance. ~~Lessees and lessors~~Entities are required to ~~apply~~adopt Topic 842 using a modified retrospective transition ~~approach for leases existing~~method at one of the following application dates: (1) the later of the beginning of the earliest ~~comparative~~ period presented in the ~~adoption-period~~ financial ~~statements.~~statements and the lease commencement date or (2) on the effective date. The ~~modified retrospective~~Company will adopt Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 using the effective date transition approach, ~~includes~~which will result in a ~~number~~balance sheet presentation that is not comparable to the prior period in the first year of ~~optional~~adoption.

Topic 842 provides for transition relief by permitting the election of certain practical expedients. The Company is electing the reassessment package of practical expedients, which permits the Company not to reassess whether (1) any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification remains appropriate for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) previously capitalized costs continue to qualify as initial direct costs on expired or existing leases as of the adoption date.

While the Company is currently assessing the quantitative impact the guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures, the Company expects the most significant changes will be related to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet, with no material impact to net income or cash flows.

Cloud Computing Arrangement Implementation Costs

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. The ASU is intended to eliminate potential diversity in practice in accounting for costs incurred to implement cloud computing arrangements that ~~entities may elect~~are service contracts by requiring customers in such arrangements to ~~apply.~~follow internal-use software guidance with respect to such costs, with any resulting deferred implementation costs recognized over the term of the contract in the same income statement line item as the fees associated with the hosting element of the arrangement. The ASU will be effective for the Company on January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

The Company assesses for indicators of other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. The Company determines whether (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments, and (ii) it will not likely be required to sell these investments prior to the recovery of the amortized cost. During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, the Company determined it had an other-than-temporary impairment and recorded a loss of ~~$1.7~~$1.8 million.

The Company obtains pricing information in determining the fair value of its available-for-sale securities from independent pricing vendors. Based on management's inquiries, the pricing vendors use various pricing models consistent with what other market participants would use. The assumptions and inputs used by the pricing vendors are derived from market observable sources including: reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark curves, bids, offers and other market-related data. The Company has not made adjustments to such prices. Each quarter, the Company validates the fair value pricing methodology to determine the fair value is consistent with applicable accounting guidance and to confirm that the securities are classified properly in the fair value hierarchy. The Company compares the pricing received from its vendors to independent sources for the same or similar securities.

Land ~~acquisition~~Acquisition

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company acquired approximately 38 acres of land on the Las Vegas Strip directly across from Wynn Las Vegas for $336.2 million, approximately 16 acres of which are subject to a ground lease that expires in 2097. The ground lease has annual payments of $3.8 million ~~for the next five years~~ until 2023 and total payments of $370.7 million thereafter. The Company expects to use this land for future development.

In accordance with asset acquisition accounting standards, the Company allocated the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired based on the relative fair value of each component. As a result, the Company recorded $89.1 million of the purchase price as a definite-lived intangible asset, which represents the favorable terms of the assumed ground lease relative to the market. The Company will amortize this amount to rent expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the ground lease.

In the assessment of the valuation allowance, appropriate consideration was given to all positive and negative evidence including recent operating profitability, forecast of future earnings and the duration of statutory carryforward periods.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, without the Company's prior written consent, the Selling Stockholder was not permitted to sell more than an aggregate of 4,043,903 shares of Common Stock in any quarter. The Company provided written consent permitting the Selling Stockholder to undertake the registered sales.

Cooperation Agreement

On August 3, 2018, the Company entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the "Cooperation Agreement") with Elaine P. Wynn regarding the composition of the Company’s Board of Directors and certain other matters, including, among other things, the appointment of Mr. Philip G. Satre to the Company's Board of Directors, standstill restrictions, releases, non-disparagement and reimbursement of expenses.

The Company assessed its ownership in the Retail Joint Venture based on consolidation accounting guidance with an evaluation being performed to determine if the Retail Joint Venture is a VIE, if the Company has a variable interest in the Retail Joint Venture and if the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Retail Joint Venture. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity.

The Company concluded that the Retail Joint Venture is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary based on its involvement in the leasing activities of the Retail Joint Venture. As a result, the Company consolidates all of the Retail Joint

Litigation

In addition to the actions noted below, the Company and its affiliates are involved in litigation arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Determination of Unsuitability and Redemption of Aruze and Affiliates

On February 18, 2012, Wynn Resorts' Gaming Compliance Committee received an independent report by Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan, LLP (the "Freeh Report") detailing a pattern of misconduct by the Okada Parties. The factual record presented in the Freeh Report included evidence that the Okada Parties had provided valuable items to certain foreign gaming officials who were responsible for regulating gaming in a jurisdiction in which entities controlled by Mr. Okada were developing a gaming resort.

Based on the Freeh Report, the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts determined that the Okada Parties were "unsuitable persons" under Article VII of the Company's articles of incorporation. On that same day, Wynn Resorts redeemed and canceled Aruze's 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts' common stock, and, pursuant to its articles of incorporation, Wynn Resorts issued the Redemption Note to Aruze in redemption of the shares.

Redemption Action and Counterclaim

On February 19, 2012, Wynn Resorts filed a complaint in the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County, Nevada against the Okada Parties (as amended, the "Complaint"), alleging breaches of fiduciary duty and related claims (the "Redemption Action") arising from the activities addressed in the Freeh Report. The Company sought compensatory and special damages as well as a declaration that it acted lawfully and in full compliance with its articles of incorporation, bylaws and other governing documents in redeeming and canceling the shares of Aruze.

On March 12, 2012, the Okada Parties filed an answer denying the claims and a counterclaim (as amended, the "Counterclaim") purporting to assert claims against the Company, certain individuals who are or were members of the Company's Board of Directors (other than Mr. Okada) and Wynn Resorts' former General ~~Counsel.~~Counsel, Kimmarie Sinatra ("Ms. Sinatra"). The Counterclaim alleged, among other things: (1) that the shares of Wynn Resorts common stock owned by Aruze were exempt from the redemption-for-unsuitability provisions in the Wynn Resorts articles of incorporation (the "Articles") pursuant to certain agreements executed in 2002; (2) that the Wynn Resorts directors who authorized the redemption of Aruze's shares acted at the direction of Mr. Wynn and did not independently and objectively evaluate the Okada Parties' suitability, and by so doing, breached their fiduciary duties; (3) that the Wynn Resorts directors violated the terms of the Wynn Resorts Articles by failing to pay Aruze fair value for the redeemed shares; and (4) that the terms of the Redemption Note that Aruze received in exchange for the redeemed shares, including the Redemption Note's principal amount, duration, interest rate, and subordinated status, were unconscionable. Among other relief, the Counterclaim sought a declaration that the redemption of Aruze's shares was void, an injunction

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company paid the principal amount of the $1.94 billion Redemption Note on March 30, 2018. On March 30, 2018, the Company also paid an additional $463.6 million with respect to the Universal Parties’ claims related to the allegedly below-market interest rate of the Redemption Note and stipulated to the release to Aruze of $232.4 million in accrued interest held in escrow.

The Universal Parties further released any claims against the Wynn Parties and their affiliates in any other jurisdiction, including but not limited to the proceeding pending in Macau against Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A. and certain related individuals ("Macau Litigation"). As a result of the Settlement Agreement, the parties to the agreement dismissed all litigation between the Universal Parties and the Company and its then-directors and executives with respect to the redemption, including the Redemption Action and the Macau Litigation, but the Settlement Agreement did not release claims against any parties to such litigation who are not parties to the Settlement Agreement, including but not limited to Kazuo Okada and Elaine P. Wynn.

On March 12, 2018, the Company voluntarily dismissed its claim for breach of fiduciary duty against Kazuo Okada, which was the last and only remaining claim between Wynn Resorts, Kazuo Okada, and the Universal Parties in the Redemption Action.

On June 19, 2012, Elaine P. Wynn asserted a cross claim against Mr. Wynn and Aruze seeking a declaration that (1) any and all of Elaine P. Wynn's duties under the Stockholders Agreement should be discharged; (2) the Stockholders Agreement was subject to rescission and is rescinded; (3) the Stockholders Agreement was an unreasonable restraint on alienation in violation of public policy; and/or (4) the restrictions on sale of shares should be construed as inapplicable to Elaine P. Wynn. On March 28, 2016, Elaine P Wynn filed an amended cross claim against Mr. Wynn, as well as Wynn Resorts and Wynn Resorts' former General Counsel (together with Mr. Wynn, the "Wynn Cross Defendants") as cross defendants. The amended cross claim substantially repeated its earlier allegations and further alleged that Mr. Wynn engaged in acts of misconduct that, with the Wynn Cross Defendants, resulted in Mr. Wynn allegedly breaching the Stockholders Agreement and violating alleged duties under the Stockholders Agreement by preventing Elaine P. Wynn from being nominated and elected to serve as one of Wynn Resorts' directors. In addition to continuing to seek the declarations asserted under the original cross claim, the amended cross claim sought an order compelling Mr. Wynn to comply with the Stockholders Agreement by assuring the nomination and election of Elaine P. Wynn to the Board of Directors and sought unspecified monetary damages from Mr. Wynn and the Wynn Cross Defendants. Elaine P. Wynn’s amended cross claim was later dismissed as to Wynn Resorts and Wynn Resorts' former General Counsel. On May 17, 2017, Elaine P. Wynn filed another amended cross claim against the Wynn Cross Defendants, which substantially repeated its earlier allegations and again named Wynn Resorts and Wynn Resorts' former General Counsel as cross defendants.

On March 14, 2018, Mr. Wynn and Elaine P. Wynn entered into a stipulation declaring the Stockholders Agreement invalid and unenforceable, and on April 16, 2018, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release by and between the Company, Mr. Wynn, Elaine P. Wynn, and the Company’s former General Counsel, which, among other things, resolved and unconditionally released the parties from all claims and cross claims asserted among the parties in a legal proceeding involving the Stockholders Agreement. Neither the Company nor the Company’s former General Counsel made any payment under the terms of such settlement agreement.

Litigation Commenced by Kazuo Okada

~~Indemnification Action:~~

On March 20, 2013, Mr. Okada filed a complaint against the Company in Nevada state court for indemnification under the Company's Articles, bylaws and agreements with its directors. The complaint sought advancement of Mr. Okada's costs and

~~(Unaudited)~~

expenses (including attorney's fees) incurred pursuant to the various legal proceedings and related regulatory investigations described above. The Company's answer and counterclaim was filed on April 15, 2013. The counterclaim named each of the Okada Parties as defendants and sought indemnification under the Company's Articles for costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) incurred pursuant to the various legal proceedings and related regulatory investigations described above. On February 4, 2014, the court entered an order on the parties' stipulation that: (1) dismissed all claims Mr. Okada asserted against the Company; (2) reserved Mr. Okada's right to assert, in the future, any claims for indemnity following the resolution of the Redemption Action; and (3) stayed the claims asserted by the Company against Mr. Okada pending the resolution of the Redemption Action. On April 6, 2018, the court entered an order closing this action.

~~Macau Litigation:~~

On July 3, 2015, WML announced that the Okada Parties filed a complaint in the Court of First Instance of Macau ("Macau Court") against Wynn Macau SA and certain individuals who are or were directors of Wynn Macau SA and or WML (collectively, the "Wynn Macau Parties"). The principal allegations in the lawsuit are that the redemption of the Okada Parties' shares in Wynn Resorts was improper and undervalued, that the previously disclosed payment by Wynn Macau SA to an unrelated third party in consideration of relinquishment by that party of certain rights in and to any future development on the land in Cotai where Wynn Palace is located was unlawful and that the previously disclosed donation by Wynn Resorts to the University of Macau Development Foundation was unlawful. The plaintiffs seek dissolution of Wynn Macau SA and compensatory damages. On July 11, 2017, the Macau Court dismissed all claims by the Okada Parties as unfounded, fined the Okada Parties, ~~as vexatious litigants,~~ and ordered the Okada Parties to pay for court costs and the Wynn Macau Parties' attorney's fees. On or about October 16, 2017, the Okada Parties filed formal appeal papers in Macau, which Wynn Macau SA received on November 21, 2017. Wynn Macau SA filed its response on December 21, 2017. In March 2018, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Universal Parties voluntarily withdrew from the Macau Litigation, leaving Mr. Okada as the sole claimant.

The Company believes this action is without merit and will vigorously defend itself against the claims pleaded against it by Mr. Okada. Management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this action or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any.

Derivative Litigation Related to Redemption Action

Two state derivative actions were commenced against the Company and all members of its Board of Directors in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, Nevada. These state court actions brought by the following plaintiffs have been consolidated: (1) IBEW Local 98 Pension Fund and (2) Danny Hinson (collectively, the "Derivative Plaintiffs"). The Derivative Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on July 20, 2012 asserting claims for (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) abuse of control; (3) gross mismanagement; and (4) unjust enrichment. The claims are against the Company and all Company directors during the applicable period, including Mr. Okada, as well as the Company's Chief Financial Officer who signed financial disclosures filed with the SEC during the applicable periods. The Derivative Plaintiffs claim that the individual defendants failed to disclose to the Company's stockholders the investigation into, and the dispute with director Okada as well as the alleged potential violations of the FCPA related to, the University of Macau Development Foundation donation. The Derivative Plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages (compensatory and punitive), disgorgement, reformation of corporate governance procedures, an order directing the Company to internally investigate the donation, as well as attorney's fees and costs. On June 18, 2014, the court entered a stipulation between the parties that provides for a stay of the action and directs the parties, within 45 days of the conclusion of the Redemption Action, to discuss how the derivative action should proceed and to file a joint report with the court. In May 2018, the parties (except Elaine P. Wynn) filed a joint report given the conclusion of the Redemption ~~Action,~~Action. On May 14, 2018, the court stayed the case due to plaintiff Danny Hinson’s claim that he intended to send a demand letter to the Company. On May 30, 2018, plaintiff Danny Hinson sent a demand letter to the Company requesting the Board to investigate the University of Macau Development Foundation donation, the removal of Mr. Okada from the Board and the ~~court scheduled a status check for May 14, 2018.~~terms of the Redemption Note. The Company is reviewing the letter.

Management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of these actions or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any.

Massachusetts Gaming License Related ~~Action~~Actions

On September 17, 2014, the Massachusetts Gaming Commission ("MGC") designated Wynn MA the award winner of the Greater Boston (Region A) gaming license. On November 7, 2014, the gaming license became effective.

Suffolk Action:

On September 17, 2018, Sterling Suffolk Racecourse, LLC, owner of the property proposed for location of a casino by an unsuccessful bidder for the Greater Boston (Region) A gaming license filed a complaint in the United States District Court, District of Massachusetts, against Wynn Resorts, Wynn MA, certain current and former officers of Wynn Resorts, FBT Everett Realty, LLC, former owner of the land on which Encore Boston Harbor is located (“FBT”) and Paul Lohnes, a member of FBT. The complaint alleges, among other things, the defendants engaged in conduct in violation of Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organization Act (“RICO”), conspired to circumvent the application process for the Greater Boston (Region A) gaming license and violated Massachusetts’ law with respect to unfair methods of competition. The plaintiff seeks $1 billion in compensatory damages and treble damages pursuant to applicable law.

The Company will vigorously defend against the claims asserted. This action is in preliminary stages and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this action or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any.

Revere Action:

On October 16, 2014, the City of Revere, the host community to the unsuccessful bidder for the same license, and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 103 ("IBEW") filed a complaint against the MGC and each of the five

~~(Unaudited)~~

gaming commissioners in Suffolk Superior Court in Boston, Massachusetts (the "Revere Action"). The complaint challenges the MGC's decision and alleges that the MGC failed to follow statutory requirements outlined in the Gaming Act. The complaint (1) seeks to appeal the administrative decision, (2) asserts that certiorari provides a remedy to correct errors in proceedings by an agency such as the MGC, (3) challenges the constitutionality of that section of the gaming law which bars judicial review of the MGC's decision to deny an applicant a gaming license, and (4) alleges violations of the open meeting law requirements. The court allowed Mohegan Sun ("Mohegan"), the other applicant for the Greater Boston (Region A) gaming license, to intervene in the Revere Action, and on February 23, 2015, Mohegan filed its complaint. The Mohegan complaint challenges the license award to Wynn MA, seeks judicial review of the MGC's decision, and seeks to vacate the MGC's license award to Wynn MA.

(Unaudited)

On July 1, 2015, the MGC filed motions to dismiss Mohegan's and the City of Revere's complaints. On December 3, 2015, the court granted the motion to dismiss the claims asserted in the Revere Action. Also on December 3, 2015, the court granted the motion to dismiss three of the four counts asserted by Mohegan but denied the motion as to Mohegan's certiorari claim. The City of Revere and IBEW sought immediate appellate review of the dismissal of their claims and the MGC requested immediate appellate review of the court's denial of the MGC's motion to dismiss Mohegan's certiorari claim. All three petitions for interlocutory review were denied. The parties then appealed to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ("SJC"). On March 10, 2017, the SJC affirmed the trial court's dismissal of the City of Revere's claims and IBEW's claims. The SJC affirmed the court's dismissal of Mohegan's claims except for the certiorari claim, which the SJC remanded to the Suffolk Superior Court. Mohegan filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings on November 3, 2017, and oral argument is being re-scheduled from its originally scheduled date of April 5, 2018.

The SJC reversed the trial court's dismissal of the individual plaintiffs' open meeting law claim and remanded that claim to the Suffolk Superior Court. The parties are currently in the discovery phase.

Wynn MA was not named in the ~~above complaint.~~Revere Action. The MGC retained private legal representation at its own nontaxpayer-funded expense.

Actions Related to Mr. Wynn

Investigations:

On January 26, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors formed a Special Committee comprised solely of independent directors to investigate allegations of inappropriate personal conduct by Mr. Wynn in the workplace.

Adjusted Property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted Property EBITDA as a measure of the operating performance of its segments and to compare the operating performance of its properties with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. We also present Adjusted Property EBITDA because it is used by some investors as a way to measure a company's ability ~~to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital~~

to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported EBITDA as a supplement to GAAP. In order to view the operations of their casinos on a more stand-alone basis, gaming companies, including us, have historically excluded from their EBITDA calculations pre-opening expenses, property charges, corporate expenses and stock-based compensation, that do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted Property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income ~~(loss)~~ as an indicator of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Unlike net income, Adjusted Property EBITDA does not include depreciation or interest expense and therefore does not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, income taxes and other non-recurring charges, which are not reflected in Adjusted Property EBITDA. Also, our calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and our consolidated financial statements appearing in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the "Company," "we," "us," or "our," or similar terms, refer to Wynn Resorts, Limited, a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section below entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Overview

Construction and Development Opportunities

We are currently constructing Encore Boston Harbor, an integrated resort in Everett, Massachusetts, adjacent to Boston along the Mystic River. The resort will contain a hotel, a waterfront boardwalk, meeting and convention space, casino space, a spa, retail offerings and food and beverage outlets. The total project budget, including gaming license fees, construction costs, capitalized interest, pre-opening expenses and land costs, is estimated to be approximately ~~$2.5~~$2.6 billion. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, we have incurred approximately ~~$1.38~~$1.83 billion in total project costs. We expect to open Encore Boston Harbor in mid-2019.

We are currently constructing approximately 430,000 square feet of additional meeting and convention space at Wynn Las Vegas and have begun design and site preparation ~~and pre-construction activities~~ for the ~~redevelopment~~reconfiguration of ~~a portion of the land previously occupied by~~ the Wynn Las Vegas golf course, which we closed in the fourth quarter of 2017. ~~Phase 1 of the project is expected to include a lagoon and additional meeting and convention space.~~ Based on current designs, we estimate the total project budget ~~for Phase 1~~ to be approximately ~~$500 million~~$415 million. We expect to reopen the golf course in the fourth quarter of 2019 and open the additional meeting and convention space in the first quarter of 2020.

We have begun a reconfiguration of the current Wynn Club gaming area at Wynn Macau. When completed, the enhanced space will consist of approximately 40 mass market table games, a refurbished high-limit slot area, two new restaurants and approximately 7,000 square feet of retail space, and will provide for improved pedestrian access from the boardwalk. We estimate the total project budget to be approximately $62 million. We expect to complete the high-limit slot area refurbishment in the fourth quarter of 2018. We expect to complete the mass market table game enhancements and open the new restaurants in the third quarter of 2019, and we expect to open ~~Phase 1~~the new retail space in the ~~first~~fourth quarter of ~~2020.~~2019.

We continually seek out new opportunities for additional gaming or related businesses, in the United States, and worldwide.

Key Operating Measures

Certain key operating measures specific to the gaming industry are included in our discussion of our operational performance for the periods for which a Condensed Consolidated Statement of ~~Operations~~Income is presented. Below are definitions of these key operating measures discussed:

Table drop in mass market for our Macau Operations is the amount of cash that is deposited in a gaming table's drop box plus cash chips purchased at the casino cage.



	31

~~Table of Contents~~

Table drop for our Las Vegas Operations is the amount of cash and net markers issued that are deposited in a gaming table's drop box.

Rolling chips are non-negotiable identifiable chips that are used to track turnover for purposes of calculating ~~incentives.~~incentives within our Macau Operations' VIP program.

Turnover is the sum of all losing rolling chip wagers within our Macau Operations' VIP program.

Table games win is the amount of table drop or turnover that is retained and recorded as casino revenues. Table games win is before discounts, commissions and the allocation of casino revenues to rooms, food and beverage and other revenues for services provided to casino customers on a complimentary basis.

Slot machine win is the amount of handle (representing the total amount wagered) that is retained by us and is recorded as casino revenues. Slot machine win is after adjustment for progressive accruals and free play, but before discounts and the allocation of casino revenues to rooms, food and beverage and other revenues for services provided to casino customers on a complimentary basis.

Average daily rate ("ADR") is calculated by dividing total room revenues, including complimentaries (less service charges, if any), by total rooms occupied.

Revenue per available room ("REVPAR") is calculated by dividing total room revenues, including complimentaries (less service charges, if any), by total rooms available.

Occupancy is calculated by dividing total occupied rooms, including complimentary rooms, by the total rooms available.

Below is a discussion of the methodologies used to calculate win percentages at our resorts.

In our VIP operations in Macau, customers primarily purchase rolling chips from the casino cage and can only use them to make wagers. Winning wagers are paid in cash chips. The loss of the rolling chips in the VIP operations is recorded as turnover and provides a base for calculating VIP win percentage. It is customary in Macau to measure VIP play using this rolling chip method. We expect our win as a percentage of turnover from these operations to be within the range of 2.7% to 3.0%. In our mass market operations in Macau, customers may purchase cash chips at either the gaming tables or at the casino cage.

The measurements from our VIP and mass market operations are not comparable as the measurement method used in our mass market operations tracks the initial purchase of chips at the table and at the casino cage, while the measurement method from our VIP operations tracks the sum of all losing wagers. Accordingly, the base measurement from the VIP operations is much larger than the base measurement from the mass market operations. As a result, the expected win percentage with the same amount of gaming win is ~~smaller~~lower in the VIP operations when compared to the mass market operations.

In Las Vegas, customers purchase chips at the gaming tables. The cash and net markers used to purchase chips are deposited in the gaming table's drop box. This is the base of measurement that we use for calculating win percentage in Las Vegas. Each type of table game has its own theoretical win percentage. Our expected table games win percentage in Las Vegas is 22% to 26%.

Food and beverage revenues ~~increased 4.7%~~decreased 3.1%, or ~~$7.7~~$6.2 million, to ~~$172.2~~$193.9 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, from ~~$164.5~~$200.1 million for the same period of 2017. Food and beverage revenues at our Las Vegas Operations decreased $11.7 million, which was primarily due to a decrease in nightclub revenue. The decrease at our Las Vegas Operations was partially offset by increases of $3.6 million and $1.9 million from Wynn Palace and Wynn Macau, respectively, which were primarily driven by increased covers at our food and beverage outlets.

Entertainment, retail and other revenues increased 4.5%, or $4.8 million, to $110.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $105.3 million for the same period of 2017. During the third quarter of 2018, Wynn Palace and Wynn Macau recorded business interruption insurance proceeds of $5.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively, related to the full settlement of claims from Typhoon Hato in 2017. Entertainment, retail and other revenues decreased 17.6%, or $10.0 million, at our Las Vegas Operations, primarily due to a conversion of wholly owned retail outlets to leased retail outlets in December 2017, the closure of the golf course in December 2017, and a decrease in entertainment revenue.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses increased 9.6%, or $124.1 million, to $1.42 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $1.29 billion for the same period of 2017, primarily due to increased casino expenses at Wynn Palace.

Casino expenses increased 15.4%, or $104.7 million, to $783.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $678.5 million for the same period of 2017, primarily due to increased gaming taxes at Wynn Palace commensurate with the increase in casino revenues.

Room expenses increased 2.6%, or $1.6 million, to $63.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $61.4 million for the same period of 2017, primarily related to repairs and maintenance expenses at our Las Vegas Operations.

Food and beverage expenses increased 6.9%, or $10.5 million, to $162.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $151.8 million for the same period of 2017, primarily due to increases of ~~$4.5~~$6.5 million and ~~$2.9~~$2.5 million from Wynn Palace and Wynn Macau, respectively, commensurate with increased sales at our restaurants. The increase from our Las Vegas Operations was primarily driven by higher payroll costs.

Entertainment, retail and other expenses decreased 10.1%, or $5.0 million, to $44.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $49.0 million for the same period of 2017. The change was driven by a decrease of $7.0 million at our Las Vegas Operations, primarily due to a conversion of wholly owned retail outlets to leased retail outlets and the closure of the golf course in December 2017.

General and administrative expenses increased 7.7%, or $13.8 million, to $192.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $178.5 million for the same period of 2017, primarily due to increases at Wynn Palace and Wynn Macau of $5.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively. These increases were primarily driven by increased payroll and other general and administrative costs.

Pre-opening expenses were $13.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $6.9 million for the same period of 2017. During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we incurred pre-opening expenses of $13.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively, related to Encore Boston Harbor.

Depreciation and amortization was relatively flat at $137.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period of 2017.

Weighted average total debt balance	$	8,875,084		$	9,959,989
Weighted average interest rate	4.92		%	4.07		%

Interest expense increased $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, primarily due to an increase in our weighted average interest rate, partially offset by a decrease in our weighted average total debt balance. Capitalized interest increased $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, due to Encore Boston Harbor construction activities.

Other non-operating income and expenses

During the first quarter of 2018, we repaid the $1.94 billion principal amount of the Redemption Note, and therefore did not record a change in the fair value of the Redemption Note for the three months ended September 30, 2018. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded a loss of $41.7 million from the change in the fair value of the Redemption Note. For more information on the methodology and assumptions used in determining the fair value of the Redemption Note, see Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

Interest income was $6.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. During 2018 and 2017, our short-term investment strategy has been to preserve capital while retaining sufficient liquidity. The majority of our short-term investment amounts were in time deposits, fixed deposits and money market accounts with a maturity of three months or less. We sold our investment securities during the third quarter of 2018.

We recorded a gain of $11.2 million and a loss of $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, from foreign currency remeasurements. The impact of the exchange rate fluctuation of the Macau pataca, in relation to the U.S. dollar, on the remeasurements of U.S. dollar denominated debt and other obligations from our Macau-related entities drove the variability between periods.

Income taxes

We recorded an income tax benefit of $3.9 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The 2018 income tax benefit primarily related to an increase in deferred tax assets. The 2017 income tax benefit primarily related to changes in the domestic valuation allowance for U.S. foreign tax credits.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $63.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $26.2 million for the same period of 2017. These amounts were primarily related to the noncontrolling interests' share of net income from WML.

Casino revenues increased 16.2%, or $497.1 million, to $3.56 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, from $3.07 billion for the same period of 2017.

Wynn Palace table drop and VIP turnover increased 53.3% and 23.7%, respectively. The VIP operations at Wynn Palace also benefited from an increase in VIP win as a percentage of turnover to 3.00% from 2.74%. The decrease at Wynn Macau was primarily driven by a decrease in VIP win as a percentage of turnover to 2.72% from 3.41%, offset by a 16.6% increase in table games win. The decrease at our Las Vegas Operations was primarily due to a 2.2% decrease in table drop and a 1.1 percentage point decrease in table games win percentage.

Other non-operating income and expenses

We incurred losses of $69.3 million and ~~$15.8~~$70.0 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, from the change in the fair value of the Redemption Note. ~~The change~~For more information on the methodology and assumptions used in fair value is a result of changes in certain variables used to calculate the estimated fair value. During the quarter, we repaid the $1.94 billion principal amount of the Redemption Note. For further information ondetermining the fair value of the Redemption Note, see Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." During the first quarter of 2018, we repaid the $1.94 billion principal amount of the Redemption Note.

Interest income was ~~$7.2~~$21.0 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, compared to ~~$6.5~~$22.0 million for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2017. During 2018 and 2017, our short-term investment strategy has been to preserve capital while retaining sufficient liquidity. The majority of our short-term investment amounts were in time deposits, fixed deposits and money market accounts with a maturity of three months or less. We sold our investment securities during the third quarter of 2018.

We ~~incurred~~recorded a ~~$2.3~~$2.1 million net gain on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to the repayment of the Redemption Note, Wynn ~~Resorts’~~Resorts' purchase of ~~$40.0~~$40 million of Wynn Las ~~Vegas’~~Vegas' 5 1/2% Senior Notes due 2025 and 5 1/4% Senior Notes due 2027 and the execution of the supplemental indenture related to Wynn Las ~~Vegas’~~Vegas' 4 1/4% Senior Notes due 2023. We incurred losses on extinguishment of debt of $43.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to the cash tender offer and subsequent redemption of 5 3/8% First Mortgage Notes due 2022, the issuance of the 5 1/4% Senior Notes due 2027, and the amendment of the Wynn America credit facilities.

Adjusted Property EBITDA

We use Adjusted Property EBITDA to manage the operating results of our segments. Adjusted Property EBITDA is net income ~~(loss)~~ before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, litigation settlement expense, pre-opening expenses, property charges and other, management and license fees, corporate expenses and other (including intercompany golf course and water rights leases), stock-based compensation, (loss) gain on extinguishment of debt, change in ~~interest rate swap~~derivatives fair value, change in Redemption Note fair value and other non-operating income and ~~expenses, and includes equity in income from unconsolidated affiliates.~~expenses. Adjusted Property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because we believe that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. We use Adjusted Property EBITDA as a measure of the operating performance of our segments and to compare the operating performance of our properties with those of our competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. We also present Adjusted Property EBITDA because it is used by some investors as a way to measure a company's ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported EBITDA as a supplement to financial measures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In order to view the operations of their casinos on a more stand-alone basis, gaming companies, including us, have historically excluded from their EBITDA calculations pre-opening expenses, property charges, corporate expenses and stock-based compensation that do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted Property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income ~~(loss)~~ as an indicator of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Unlike net income, Adjusted Property EBITDA does not include depreciation or interest expense and therefore does not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, income taxes and other non-recurring charges, which are not reflected in Adjusted Property EBITDA. Also, our calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

The following table summarizes Adjusted Property EBITDA (in thousands) for our Macau and Las Vegas Operations as reviewed by management and summarized in Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 14, "Segment Information." That footnote also presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Property EBITDA to net income ~~(loss)~~ attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited.

Adjusted Property EBITDA at our Las Vegas Operations decreased 37.1% and 13.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, primarily due to ~~improved mass market operations driven by an increase of 16.4%~~a decline in ~~table drop.~~

Adjusted Property EBITDA at Wynn Palace increased 89.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, primarily due to increases of 58.1% and 39.3% in table drop and VIP turnover, respectively. The mass market operations at Wynn Palace also benefited from a 3.7 percentage point increase in mass market table games win percentage from 21.8% to 25.5%.

Adjusted Property EBITDA at our Las Vegas Operations increased 6.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to the same period of 2017, primarily due to improved casino operations driven by a 17.0% increase in table drop.operating revenues.

Our Macau related credit facilities include a $2.30 billion equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility (the "Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facility") and a $750 million equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility," and together with the Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facility, the "Wynn Macau Credit Facilities"). The borrower is Wynn Macau SA, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of WML, and borrowings consist of both United States dollar and Hong Kong dollar tranches. Wynn Macau SA has the ability to upsize the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities by an additional $1 billion in equivalent senior secured loans upon its satisfaction of various conditions.

On March 28, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement to provide for a 364-day term loan facility and borrowed the full amount available of $800 million (the "Bridge Facility"). The Bridge Facility bears interest at either LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum or base rate plus 1.75% per annum. On April 3, 2018, the Company used net proceeds from newly issued shares of its common stock to repay all amounts borrowed under the Bridge Facility, together with all interest accrued thereon, and the credit agreement terminated pursuant to its terms.

~~(4)~~

Our Wynn America credit facilities consist of an $875 million fully funded senior secured term loan facility (the "WA Senior Term Loan Facility I"), a $125 million fully funded senior term loan facility (the "WA Senior Term Loan Facility II") and a $375 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "WA Senior Revolving Credit Facility," and collectively, the "Wynn America Credit Facilities"), under which Wynn America, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is the borrower.

Term Loan

On October 30, 2018, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") to provide for a $500 million six-year term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan matures on October 30, 2024 and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% per year. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Term Loan for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, repurchases of the Company’s common stock, investments in subsidiaries and/or capital expenditures. For more information on the Term Loan, see Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 6, "Long-Term Debt."

Other Factors Affecting Liquidity

Wynn Resorts, Limited is a holding company and, as a result, our ability to pay dividends is highly dependent on our ability to obtain funds and our subsidiaries' ability to provide funds to us. Wynn America, LLC and Wynn Macau SA debt instruments and the Retail Term Loan contain customary negative covenants and financial covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants that restrict our ability to pay dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect subsidiaries.

Wynn Las Vegas, LLC intends to fund its operations and capital requirements from cash on hand and operating cash flows. We cannot assure you however, that our Las Vegas Operations will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or the availability of additional indebtedness will be sufficient to enable us to service and repay Wynn Las Vegas, LLC's indebtedness and to fund its other liquidity needs. Similarly, we expect that our Macau Operations will fund Wynn Macau SA and WML's debt service obligations with existing cash, operating cash flows and availability under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. However, we cannot assure you that operating cash flows will be sufficient to do so. We may refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of the indebtedness on acceptable terms or at all.

Legal proceedings in which we are involved also may impact our liquidity. No assurance can be provided as to the outcome of such proceedings. In addition, litigation inherently involves significant costs. For information regarding legal proceedings, see Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies."

Our Board of Directors has authorized an equity repurchase program. Under the equity repurchase program, we may repurchase the Company's outstanding shares from time to time through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, and under plans complying with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, we had $1.0 billion in repurchase authority under the program.

We have in the past repurchased, and in the future, we may periodically consider repurchasing our outstanding notes for cash. The amount of any notes to be repurchased, as well as the timing of any repurchases, will be based on business, market and other conditions and factors, including price, contractual requirements or consents, and capital availability.

New business developments or other unforeseen events may occur, resulting in the need to raise additional funds. We continue to explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses in domestic and international markets. There can be no assurances regarding the business prospects with respect to any other opportunity. Any new development would require us to obtain additional financing. We may decide to conduct any such development through Wynn Resorts, Limited or through subsidiaries separate from the Las Vegas or Macau-related entities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any transactions with special purpose entities nor do we engage in any derivatives, except for interest rate swaps and ~~foreign currency forward contracts.~~an interest rate collar. We do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $17.7 million.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, other than (i) the borrowing of ~~$800.0 million on the Bridge Facility, which was repaid in April 2018, (ii) the borrowing of $623.4~~$623.3 million on the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility, which matures in September 2020, ~~(iii) the borrowing of $250.0 million on the WA Senior Revolving Credit Facility, which was repaid in April 2018, (iv)~~(ii) the repayment of the $1.94 billion Redemption Note, which was to mature in February 2022, ~~and (v)~~(iii) the acquisition of a ground lease that has annual rental payments of $3.8 million ~~for the next five years~~until 2023 and total payments of $370.7 million ~~thereafter.~~thereafter and (iv) the borrowing of $615 million pursuant to the Retail Term Loan Agreement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

Interest Rate Risks

One of our primary exposures to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt facilities that bear interest based on floating rates. We attempt to manage interest rate risk by managing the mix of long-term fixed rate borrowings and variable rate borrowings, supplemented by hedging activities as believed by us to be appropriate. We cannot assure you that these risk management strategies will have the desired effect, and interest rate fluctuations could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

In order to mitigate exposure to interest rate fluctuations on the Retail Term Loan, the Company entered into a five-year interest rate collar with a notional value of $615 million. The interest rate collar establishes a range whereby the Company will pay the counterparty if one-month LIBOR falls below the established floor rate of 1.00%, and the counterparty will pay the Company if one-month LIBOR exceeds the ceiling rate of 3.75%. For more information on the interest rate collar, see Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, approximately ~~47.6%~~49.9% of our long-term debt was based on fixed rates. Based on our borrowings as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, an assumed 100 basis point change in the variable rates would cause our annual interest ~~cost~~expense to change by ~~$49.7~~$45.3 million.

Foreign Currency Risks

The currency delineated in Wynn Macau SA's concession agreement with the government of Macau is the Macau pataca. The Macau pataca, which is not a freely convertible currency, is linked to the Hong Kong dollar, and in many cases the two are used interchangeably in Macau. The Hong Kong dollar is linked to the U.S. dollar and the exchange rate between these two currencies has remained relatively stable over the past several years. However, the exchange linkages of the Hong Kong dollar and the Macau pataca, and the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, are subject to potential changes due to, among other things, changes in Chinese governmental policies and international economic and political developments.

If the Hong Kong dollar and the Macau pataca are not linked to the U.S. dollar in the future, severe fluctuations in the exchange rate for these currencies may result. We also cannot assure you that the current rate of exchange fixed by the applicable monetary authorities for these currencies will remain at the same level.

We expect most of the revenues and expenses for any casino that we operate in Macau will be in Hong Kong dollars or Macau patacas. For any U.S. dollar-denominated debt or other obligations incurred by our Macau-related entities, fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Macau pataca or the Hong Kong dollar, in relation to the U.S. dollar, could have adverse effects on our results of operations, financial condition and ability to service debt. Based on our balances as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, an assumed 1% change in the U.S. dollar/Hong Kong dollar exchange rate would cause a foreign currency transaction gain/loss of ~~$24.8~~$28.5 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter to which this report relates that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are occasionally party to lawsuits. As with all litigation, no assurance can be provided as to the outcome of such matters and we note that litigation inherently involves significant costs.

Wynn Macau SA ~~has~~ cooperated with CCAC's request.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

A description of our risk factors can be found in Item 1A, Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There were no material changes to those risk factors during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 other than resolution of certain litigation as discussed in Item 1—"Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" of Part I in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In ~~January~~August 2018, we purchased ~~672~~15,460 shares in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations on vested restricted stock at an average price of ~~$168.73~~$149.19 per share, for a total ~~amount~~ of ~~$0.1 million.~~

~~In March 2018, we purchased 2,358 shares in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations on vested restricted stock at an average price of $168.42 per share, for a total amount of $0.4~~$2.3 million.

None of the foregoing repurchases that occurred during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 were part of the Company's publicly announced repurchase program. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018, we had $1.0 billion in repurchase authority under the program.
