(the “Nassau Coliseum Transaction”). The Company purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such casino license.
Capital Financing OverviewSingapore
In April 2019, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd. (“MBS”) and the STB entered into a development agreement (the “Second Development Agreement”) pursuant to which MBS has agreed to construct a development, which will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats (the “MBS Expansion Project”). The Second Development Agreement provides for a total minimum project cost of approximately 4.50 billion Singapore dollars (“SGD,” approximately $3.32 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2023). The estimated cost and timing of the total project will be updated as the Company completes design and begins construction. The Company expects the total project cost will materially exceed the amounts referenced above from April 2019 based on current market conditions due to inflation, higher material and labor costs and other factors. The Company has incurred approximately$1.07 billion as of June 30, 2023, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site. On March 22, 2023, MBS and the STB entered into a supplemental agreement, which further extended the construction commencement date to April 8, 2024 and the construction completion date to April 8, 2028, and allowed for changes to the construction and operation plans under the Second Development Agreement.

Note 2 — Accounts Receivable, Net and Customer Contract Related Liabilities
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable is comprised of casino, hotel, mall and other receivables, which do not bear interest and are recorded at amortized cost. The Company held unrestricted cashextends credit to approved casino patrons following background checks and cash equivalentsinvestigations of $2.0 billion and restricted cash and cash equivalentscreditworthiness. Business or economic conditions, the legal enforceability of $11 million asgaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant events in foreign countries could affect the collectability of September 30, 2017.receivables from patrons in these countries.
Accounts receivable primarily consists of casino receivables. Other than casino receivables, there is no other concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable. The Company believes the cash on hand and cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to maintain compliance with the financial covenantsconcentration of its credit facilities. Inrisk in casino receivables is mitigated substantially by its credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures, and also believes there are no concentrations of credit risk for which a provision has not been established. Although management believes the normal courseprovision is adequate, it is possible the estimated amount of cash collections with respect to accounts receivable could change.
The Company maintains a provision for expected credit losses on casino, hotel and mall receivables and regularly evaluates the balances. The Company applies standard reserve percentages to aged account balances, which are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due. The reserve percentages are based on estimated loss rates supported by historical observed default rates over the expected life of the receivable and are adjusted for forward-looking information. The Company also specifically analyzes the collectability of each account with a balance over a specified dollar amount, based upon the age of the account, the patron's financial condition, collection history and any other known information and adjusts the aforementioned reserve with the results from the individual reserve analysis. The Company also monitors regional and global economic conditions and forecasts in its activities,evaluation of the adequacy of the recorded reserves. Account balances are written off against the provision when the Company will continue to evaluate its capital structure and opportunities for enhancements thereof. In March 2017,believes it is probable the Company entered into an agreement to amend its U.S. credit facility, which refinanced the term loans in an aggregate amount of $2.18 billion, extended the maturity of the term loans to March 29, 2024, removed the requirement to prepay outstanding revolving loans and/or permanently reduce revolving commitments in certain circumstances and lowered the applicable margin credit spread for borrowings under the term loans (see "— Note 3 — Long-Term Debt — 2013 U.S. Credit Facility").
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Boards ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update (as subsequently amended) on revenue recognition thatreceivable will be applied to all contracts with customers. The update requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects in exchange for the goods or services. It also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance will be required to be applied on a retrospective basis, using one of two methodologies, and will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company plans to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2018, on a full retrospective basis. The Company continues to assess the impact the new standard will have on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures. Upon adoption, management expects the standard to change the presentation of, and accounting for, complimentary revenues and promotional allowances currently presented in the statements of operations in accordance with current industry standards. It is anticipated a majority of total promotional allowances will be netted against casino revenue and expenses will be allocated among the respective categories in a different manner. Management also anticipates a change in the manner the Company assigns value to accrued customer benefits related to its frequent players programs. The resulting liability will be recorded using the retail value of such benefits less estimated breakage and will be offset against casino revenue. When the benefits are redeemed, revenue will be recognized in the resulting category of the goods or services provided. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to simplify several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, classification in the statement of cash flows and electing an accounting policy to either estimate the number of forfeitures or account for forfeitures when they occur. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017, and as a result, excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to the exercise or vesting of share-based awards are now reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of income tax expense, whereas previously they were recognized in stockholders' equity when realized. As a result of the prior guidance that required that deferred tax assets are not recognized for net operating loss carryforwards or credit carryforwards resulting from windfall tax benefits, the Company had windfall tax benefits of $379 million as of December 31, 2016, that were not reflected in deferred tax assets. With the adoption of the new accounting standard, the Company recorded these deferred tax assets, but established a full valuation allowance against those deferred tax assets based on the determination that it was "more-likely-than-not" that those deferred tax assets would not be realized. The accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on a retrospective basis. The reclassification of the prior period had an immaterial impact on the Company's cash flows from operating and financing activities. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur rather than account for forfeitures based upon an estimated rate. This change in accounting policy was adopted on a modified retrospective basis and resulted in a $2 million cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company completed an evaluation of the estimated useful lives of its property and equipment. The timing of this review was based on a combination of factors accumulating over time that provided the Company with updated information to make a better estimate on the economic lives of certain property and equipment. These factors included (1) the accumulation of historical asset replacement data at the Company's operating properties, which reflects the actual length of time the Company uses certain property and equipment, (2) the stabilization of the operating, regulatory and competitive environment in each jurisdiction the Company operates in, which includes meeting the final land concession government imposed deadlines for the Company's Macao properties on the Cotai Strip, (3) transitioning to more predictable renovation cycles at the Company's operating properties and (4) consideration of the estimated useful lives assigned to buildings of the Company's peers in the gaming and hospitality industry.

Macao Concession
On December 16, 2022, the Macao government announced the award of six definitive gaming concessions, one of which was awarded to Venetian Macau Limited (“VML,” a subsidiary of Sands China Ltd.), and on January 1, 2023, VML entered into a ten-year gaming concession contract with the useful livesMacao government (the “Concession”). Under the terms of the Concession, VML is required to pay the Macao government an annual gaming premium consisting of a fixed portion and a variable portion. The fixed portion of the premium is 30 million patacas (approximately$4 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2023). The variable portion is 300,000 patacas per gaming table reserved exclusively for certain propertytypes of games or players, 150,000 patacas per gaming table not so reserved (the mass rate) and equipment were appropriate. As a result, the Company revised the estimated useful lives of its buildings, building improvements1,000 patacas per electrical or mechanical gaming machine, including slot machines (approximately $37,158, $18,579 and land improvements from a range of 15 to 40 years to 10 to 50 years$124, respectively, at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2023).
On December 30, 2022, VML and certain other furniture, fixturessubsidiaries of the Company, confirmed and agreed to revert certain gaming equipment from 3and gaming areas to 6 yearsthe Macao government without compensation and free of any liens or charges in accordance with, and upon the expiry of, VML’s subconcession. On the same day, VML and the Macao government entered into a handover record (the “Handover Record”) granting VML the right to 5 to 10 years to better reflectoperate the estimated periods during which these assets are expected to remain in service.
This change in estimated useful lives was accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effective July 1, 2017. The impact of this changereverted gaming equipment and gaming areas for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, was a decreaseduration of the Concession in depreciation and amortization expense andconsideration for the payment of an increase in operating income of $51 million, and an increase in net income of $46 million, or earnings per share of $0.06annual fee. The annual fee is calculated based on a basicprice per square meter of reverted gaming area, being 750 patacas per square meter in the first three years and diluted basis.

Note 9 — Segment Information
The Company’s principal operating and developmental activities occur in two geographic areas: Macao and Singapore. The Company reviews the results of operations and construction and development activities for each of its operating segments: The Venetian Macao; The Londoner Macao; The Parisian Macao; The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao; Sands Macao; and Marina Bay Sands. The Company also reviews construction and development activities for its primary projects under development, in addition to its reportable segments noted above, which include the renovation and expansion of the Company’s MICE, entertainment and retail product in Macao and the MBS Expansion Project. The Company has included Ferry Operations and Other (comprised primarily of the Company’s ferry operations and various other operations that included several amendmentsare ancillary to its properties in Macao) and Corporate and Other to reconcile to the original claim, althoughcondensed consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

On May 8, 2014, AAEC lodged an appeal against that decision. The Macao Judicial Court further held that the existence of the pending application for recognition and enforcement of the U.S. Court of Appeals ruling before the Macao Second Instance Court did not justify a stay of the proceedings against the U.S. Defendants at the present time, although in principle an application for a stay of the proceedings against the U.S. Defendants could be reviewed after the Macao Second Instance Court had issued its decision. Onsix months ended June 25, 2014, the Macao Second Instance Court delivered a decision, which gave formal recognition to and allowed enforcement in Macao of the judgment of the U.S. Court of Appeals, dismissing AAEC's claims against the U.S. Defendants.30, 2022, excludes these results.
AAEC appealed against the recognition decision to the Macao Court of Final Appeal, which, on May 6, 2015, dismissed the appeal and held the U.S. judgment to be final and have preclusive effect. The Macao Court of Final Appeal's decision became final on May 21, 2015. On June 5, 2015, the U.S. Defendants applied to the Macao Judicial

Court to dismiss the claims against themThe Company’s segment information as res judicata. AAEC filed its response to that application onof June 30, 2015. The U.S. Defendants filed their reply on July 23, 2015. On September 14, 2015,2023 and December 31, 2022, and for the Macao Judicial Court admitted two further legal opinions from Portuguesethree and U.S. law experts. On March 16, 2016, the Macao Judicial Court dismissed the defense of res judicata. An appeal against that decision was lodged on April 7, 2016, together with a request that the appeal be heard immediately. By a decision dated April 13, 2016, the Macao Judicial Court accepted that the appeal be heard immediately. Legal arguments were submitted May 23, 2016. AAEC replied to the legal arguments on or about July 14, 2016, which was three days late, upon payment of a penalty. The U.S. Defendants submitted a response on September 20, 2016. On December 13, 2016, the Macao Judicial Court confirmed its earlier decision not to stay the proceedings pending appeal. As of the end of December 2016, all appeals (including VML's dismissal and the res judicata appeals) were being transferred to the Macao Second Instance Court. On May 11, 2017, the Macao Second Instance Court notified the parties of its decision of refusal to deal with the appeals at the present time. The Macao Second Instance Court ordered that the court file be transferred back to the Macao Judicial Court. Evidence gathering by the Macao Judicial Court has commenced by letters rogatory. Onsix months ended June 30, 2017, the Macao Judicial Court sent letters rogatory to the Public Prosecutor's office, for onward transmission to relevant authorities in the U.S.2023 and Hong Kong.2022 is as follows:
On March 25, 2015, application was made by the U.S. Defendants to the Macao Judicial Court to revoke the legal aid granted to AAEC, accompanied by a request for evidence taking from AAEC, relating to the fees and expenses that they incurred and paid in the U.S. subsequent action referred to below. The Macao Public Prosecutor has opposed the action on the ground of lack of evidence that AAEC's financial position has improved. No decision has been issued in respect to that application up to the present time. A complaint against AAEC's Macao lawyer arising from certain conduct in relation to recent U.S. proceedings was submitted to the Macao Lawyer's Association on October 19, 2015. A letter dated February 26, 2016, has been received from the Conselho Superior de Advocacia of the Macao Bar Association advising that disciplinary proceedings have commenced. A further letter dated April 5, 2016, was received from the Conselho Superior de Advocacia requesting confirmation that the signatories of the complaint were acting within their corporate authority. By a letter dated April 14, 2016, such confirmation has been provided. On September 28, 2016, the Conselho Superior de Advocacia invited comments on the defense, which had been lodged by AAEC's Macao lawyer.
On July 9, 2014, the plaintiff filed another action in the U.S. District Court against LVSC, LVSLLC, VCR (collectively, the "LVSC entities"), Sheldon G. Adelson, William P. Weidner, David Friedman and Does 1-50 for declaratory judgment, equitable accounting, misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of confidence and conversion based on a theory of copyright law. The claim is for $5.0 billion. On November 4, 2014, plaintiff finally effected notice on the LVSC entities, which was followed by a motion to dismiss by the LVSC entities on November 10, 2014. Plaintiff failed to timely respond and on December 2, 2014, the LVSC entities moved for immediate dismissal and sanctions against plaintiff and his counsel for bringing a frivolous lawsuit. On December 19, 2014, plaintiff filed an incomplete and untimely response, which was followed by plaintiff's December 27, 2014 notice of withdrawal of the lawsuit and the LVSC entities' December 29, 2014, reply in favor of sanctions and dismissal with prejudice. On August 31, 2015, the judge dismissed the U.S. action and the LVSC entities' sanctions motion. The Macao action is in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any. The Company intends to defend this matter vigorously.
As previously disclosed by the Company, on February 5, 2007, AAEC brought a similar claim (the "Prior Action") in the U.S. District Court, against LVSI (now known as LVSLLC), VCR and Venetian Venture Development, LLC, which are subsidiaries of the Company, and William P. Weidner and David Friedman, who are former executives of the Company. The U.S. District Court entered an order on April 16, 2010, dismissing the Prior Action. On April 20, 2012, LVSLLC, VCR and LVS (Nevada) filed an injunctive action (the "Nevada Action") against AAEC in the U.S. District Court seeking to enjoin AAEC from proceeding with the Macao Action based on AAEC's filing, and the U.S. District Court's dismissal, of the Prior Action. On June 14, 2012, the U.S. District Court issued an order that denied the motions requesting the Nevada Action, thereby effectively dismissing the Nevada Action.

(1)Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of its operations with those of its competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT'SMANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and other financial information included in this Form 10-Q. Certain statements in this "Management's“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"Operations” are forward-looking statements. See "—Special“Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."
Operations
Generally, weWe view each of our integrated resortIntegrated Resort properties as an operating segment. Our operating segments in the Macao Special Administrative Region ("Macao") of the People's Republic of China consist of The Venetian Macao; Sands Cotai Central;The Londoner Macao; The Parisian Macao, which opened on September 13, 2016;Macao; The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Hotel Macao; and the Sands Macao. Our operating segment in Singapore is Marina Bay Sands.
Macao
From 2020 through the beginning of 2023, our operations in Macao were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Macao government's policy regarding the management of COVID-19 and general travel restrictions was relaxed in late December 2022 and early January 2023. Since then, visitation to our Macao Integrated Resorts and operations have improved.
The Macao government announced total visitation from mainland China to Macao increased approximately 118.3% and decreased approximately 50.1%, during the five months ended May 31, 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019 (pre-pandemic), respectively. The Macao government also announced gross gaming revenue increased approximately 205.1% and decreased approximately 46.4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Singapore
From 2020 through early 2022, our operations in Singapore were negatively impacted by the reduction in travel and tourism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Vaccinated Travel Framework (“VTF”), launched in April 2022, facilitated the resumption of travel and had a positive impact on operations at Marina Bay Sands. Our operating segmentsDuring February 2023, any remaining COVID-19 border measures were lifted. Airlift passenger movement has increased with 15 million passengers having passed through Singapore's Changi Airport from January through May 2023 (the latest statistics currently available), an increase of 222% and a decrease of 18% compared to the same period in 2022 and 2019, respectively.
Visitation to Marina Bay Sands continues to improve since the U.S. consisttravel restrictions have been lifted. The Singapore Tourism Board (“STB”) announced total visitation to Singapore increased from approximately 1.5 million in 2022 to 6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, while visitation decreased 32.6% when compared to the same period in 2019.
Summary
While the disruptions arising from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the Las Vegas Operating Properties, which includes The Venetian Las Vegas, The Palazzopotential future impact, if any, on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and the Sands Expo Center;financial condition is uncertain. However, we have a strong balance sheet and the Sands Bethlehem.sufficient liquidity in place, including total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $5.77 billion and access to $1.50 billion, $1.74 billion and $435 million of available borrowing capacity from our LVSC Revolving Facility, 2018 SCL Revolving Facility and 2012 Singapore Revolving Facility, respectively, as of June 30, 2023. We believe we are able to support continuing operations and complete our major construction projects that are underway.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information currently available to us and on various other assumptions management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates and we may change our estimates and assumptions in future evaluations. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We believe these critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. For a discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates, please refer to "Management's“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"Operations” presented in our 20162022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 24, 2017.3, 2023.
With the exception

There were no newly identified significant accounting policies and estimates during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, nor were there any material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in our 20162022 Annual Report.

The increase in operating income was due to The Parisian Macao, which opened in September 2016, stronger results at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and the impact of the change in useful lives of certain property and equipment. The increase in net income and net income attributable to Las Vegas Sands Corp. reflected the increase in operating income, partially offset by increases in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other expense, interest expense and income tax expense, as further described below.
Operating Results
Key Operating Revenue Measurements
Operating revenues at The Venetian Macao, Sands Cotai Central,The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Hotel Macao and Marina Bay Sands and our Las Vegas Operating Properties are dependent upon the volume of customerspatrons who stay at the hotel, which affects the price that can be charged for hotel rooms and our gaming volume. Operating revenues at Sands Macao and Sands Bethlehem are principally driven by casino customersthe volume of gaming patrons who visit the propertiesproperty on a daily basis.
Management utilizes the following volume and pricing measures in order to evaluate past performance and assist in forecasting future revenues. The various volume measurements indicate our ability to attract patrons to our Integrated Resorts. In casino operations, win and hold percentages indicate the amount of revenue to be expected based on volume. In hotel operations, average daily rate and revenue per available room indicate the demand for rooms and our ability to capture that demand. In mall operations, base rent per square foot indicates our ability to attract and maintain profitable tenants for our leasable space.
The following are the key measurements we use to evaluate operating revenues:
Casino revenue measurements for Macao and Singapore: Macao and Singapore table games are segregated into two groups: Rolling Chip play (composed of VIP players) and Non-Rolling Chip play (mostly non-VIP players). The volume measurement for Rolling Chip play is non-negotiable gaming chips wagered and lost. The volume measurement for Non-Rolling Chip play is table games drop ("drop"(“drop”), which is net markers issued (credit instruments), cash deposited in the table drop boxes and gaming chips purchased and exchanged at the cage. Rolling Chip and Non-Rolling Chip volume measurements are not comparable as they are two distinct measures of volume. The amounts wagered and lost for Rolling Chip play are substantially higher than the amounts dropped for Non-Rolling Chip play. Slot handle, ("handle"), also a volume measurement, is the gross amount wagered for the period cited.
We view Rolling Chip win as a percentage of Rolling Chip volume, Non-Rolling Chip win as a percentage of drop and slot hold (amount won by the casino) as a percentage of slot handle. Win or hold percentage represents the percentage of Rolling Chip volume, Non-Rolling Chip drop or slot handle that is won by the casino and recorded as casino revenue. BeginningOur win and hold percentages are calculated before discounts, commissions, deferring revenue associated with the three months ended March 31, 2017, we revised the expected range for our Macao operations dueloyalty programs and allocating casino revenues related to the Rolling Chip win percentage experience over the last several years.goods and services provided to patrons on a complimentary basis.

Casino revenue measurements for the U.S.: The volume measurements in the U.S. are slot handle, as previously described, and table games drop, which is the total amount of cash and net markers issued that are deposited in the table drop box. We view table games win as a percentage of drop and slot hold as a percentage of handle. Beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2017, we revised the expected range for our Las Vegas Operating Properties due to the win percentage experienced over the last several years. Based upon our mix of table games, our table games are expected to produce a win percentage (calculated before discounts) of 18% to 26% for Baccarat and 16% to 24% for non-Baccarat. Table games at Sands Bethlehem have produced a trailing 12-month win percentage of 20.0%. Our slot machines have produced a trailing 12-month hold percentage (calculated before slot club cash incentives) of 8.0% and 6.6% at our Las Vegas Operating Properties and at Sands Bethlehem, respectively. Actual win may vary from our expected win percentage and the trailing 12-month win and hold percentages. Similar to Macao and Singapore, slot machine play is generally conducted on a cash basis. Approximately 59.2% of our table games play at our Las Vegas Operating Properties, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was conducted on a credit basis, while our table games play in Pennsylvania is primarily conducted on a cash basis.


Hotel revenue measurements: Performance indicators used are occupancy rate (a volume indicator), which is the average percentage of available hotel rooms occupied during a period and average daily room rate ("(“ADR," a price indicator), which is the average price of occupied rooms per day. Available rooms exclude those rooms unavailable for occupancy during the period due to renovation, development or other requirements.requirements (such as government mandated closure, lodging for team members and usage by the Macao government for quarantine measures). The calculations of the occupancy rate and ADR include the impact of rooms provided on a complimentary basis. Complimentary room rates are determined based on an analysis of retail (or cash) room rates by type of customer and room product to ensure the complimentary room rates are consistent with retail rates. Revenue per available room ("RevPAR"(“RevPAR”) represents a summary of hotel ADR and occupancy.
26


Because not all available rooms are occupied, ADR is normally higher than RevPAR. Reserved rooms where the guests do not show up for their stay and lose their deposit, or where guests check out early, may be resoldre-sold to walk-in guests. These rooms are considered to be occupied twice for statistical purposes due to obtaining the original deposit and the walk-in guest revenue. In cases where a significant number of rooms are resold, occupancy rates may be in excess of 100% and RevPAR may be higher than the ADR.
Mall revenue measurements: Occupancy, base rent per square foot and tenant sales per square foot are used as performance indicators. Occupancy represents gross leasable occupied area ("GLOA"(“GLOA”) divided by gross leasable area ("GLA"(“GLA”) at the end of the reporting period. GLOA is the sum of: (1) tenant occupied space under lease and (2) tenants no longer occupying space, but paying rent. GLA does not include space that is currently under development or not on the market for lease. Base rent per square foot is the weighted average base or minimum rent charge in effect at the end of the reporting period for all tenants that would qualify to be included in occupancy. Tenant sales per square foot is the sum of reported comparable sales for the trailing 12 months divided by the comparable square footage for the same period. Only tenants that have been open for a minimum of 12 months are included in the tenant sales per square foot calculation.

In our experience, average win percentages remain fairly consistent when measured over extended periods of time with a significant volume of wagers, but can vary considerably within shorter time periods as a result of the statistical variances that are associated with games of chance in which large amounts are wagered.

The amount of this provision can vary over short periods of time because of factors specific to the customerspatrons who owe us money from gaming activities.

__________________________
(1)    Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by management as the primary measure of the operating performance of our segments. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating performance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of itsour operations with those of itsour competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated resortResort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, integrated resortIntegrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, and debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA. Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, our presentation of consolidated adjusted property EBITDA may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Our effective income tax rateexpense was 9.6%$49 million on income before income taxes of $417 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, compared2023, resulting in an 11.8% effective income tax rate. This compares to 10.2%a 36.2% effective income tax rate for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2022. The decrease in the effective income tax rate relates primarily to the valuation allowances recorded duringexpense for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016, as we determined that certain deferred tax assets were no longer "more-likely than-not" realizable.

Our income tax expense is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the year applied to year-to-date operating results in accordance with interim accounting guidelines.
We have had the benefit of a corporate tax exemption in Macao, which exempts us from paying the 12% corporate income tax on profits generated by the operation of casino games, but does not apply to our non-gaming activities. We continued to benefit from this tax exemption through December 31, 2022. Additionally, we entered into a shareholder dividend tax agreement with the Macao government in April 2019, effective through June 26, 2022, providing an annual payment as a substitution for a 12% tax otherwise due from Venetian Macau Limited (“VML,” a subsidiary of SCL) shareholders on dividend distributions paid from VML gaming profits. In December 2022, we requested a corporate tax exemption on profits generated by the operation of casino games in Macao for the new gaming concession period effective from January 1, 2023 through the endDecember 31, 2032, or for a period of 2018.

____________________
(1)    Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 7 — Segment Information" for discussionadjusted property EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by management as the primary measure of the operating performance of our segments. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is net income (loss) from continuing operations before stock-based compensation expense, corporate expense, pre-opening expense, development expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of leasehold interests in land, gain or loss on disposal or impairment of assets, interest, other income or expense, gain or loss on modification or early retirement of debt and income taxes. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations and operating segmentsperformance. In particular, management utilizes consolidated adjusted property EBITDA to compare the operating profitability of our operations with those of our competitors, as well as a basis for determining certain incentive compensation. Integrated Resort companies have historically reported adjusted property EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their properties on a more stand-alone basis, Integrated Resort companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp., have historically excluded certain expenses that do not relate to the management of specific properties, such as pre-opening expense, development expense and corporate expense, from their adjusted property EBITDA calculations. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a reconciliationmeasure of liquidity), in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, dividend payments, interest payments, debt principal repayments and income taxes, which are not reflected in consolidated adjusted property EBITDA. Not all companies calculate adjusted property EBITDA in the same manner. As a result, our presentation of consolidated adjusted property EBITDA may not be directly comparable to net income):similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Interest cost increased $11$111 million compared to the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2022, primarily resulting primarily from an increase in the weighted average interest rate from 4.3% to 5.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This is due to the increase in the underlying benchmark rate on our SCL Revolving Facility and our Singapore Credit Facility, and the increase in interest rates on the SCL senior notes as a result of the credit rating downgrade to BB+ by S&P in February 2022, and by Fitch in June 2022. Interest cost was also impacted by an overall net increase in our weighted average total debt balance. Capitalized interest decreased $31 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to the opening

Other Factors EffectingAffecting Earnings
Interest income was $146 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to $131 million in interest income on money market funds and bank deposits driven by higher interest rates. We also had $14 million in interest income on the seller financing loan provided in connection with the sale of the Las Vegas properties.
Other expense was $80 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $33$21 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2023, compared to $31 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Other expense during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, was primarily attributable to a depreciation of the U.S. dollar versus the Singapore dollar during the period. This resulted in $65$35 million of foreign currency transaction losses driven by SingaporeU.S. dollar denominated intercompany debt reportedheld by SCL, partially offset by $11 million of foreign currency transaction gains at MBS.
Our income tax expense was $99 million on income before income taxes of $612 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, resulting in U.S. dollars, anda16.2%effective income tax rate. This compares to a $16 million fair value adjustment on our Singapore forward contracts.
Our14.4% effective income tax rate was 10.4% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, compared to 11.7%2022. The income tax expense for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016. The decrease in the effective income tax rate relates primarily to the valuation allowances recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as we determined that certain deferred tax assets were no longer "more-likely-than-not" realizable. The effective income tax rates reflect2023, reflects a 17% statutory tax rate on our Singapore operations and a zero percent21% corporate income tax on our domestic operations. Our operations in Macao are subject to a 12% statutory income tax rate, onbut in connection with the 35% gaming tax, our subsidiaries in Macao gaming operations due to ourand their peers received an income tax exemption on gaming operations through December 31, 2022. Our income tax expense is based on our estimated annual effective tax rate for the year applied to year-to-date operating results in Macao, effective through the end of 2018. We have recorded a valuation allowance related to certain deferred tax assets generated by operations in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions; however, to the extent that the financial results of these operations improve and it becomes "more-likely-than-not" that these deferred tax assets, or a portion thereof, are realizable, we will reduce the valuation allowances in the period such determination is made, as appropriate.accordance with interim accounting guidelines.

(1)The Shoppes at Parisian opened in September 2016.
(2)Revenues from CAM, levies and direct recoveries are included in minimum rents for The Outlets at Sands Bethlehem.
(3)Minimum rents include base rents and straight-line adjustments of base rents.
(4)Commercial property that generates rental income is exempt from property tax for the first six years for newly constructed buildings in Cotai. Each property is also eligible to obtain an additional six-year exemption, provided certain qualifications are met. To date, The Venetian Macao and The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Hotel Macao have obtained a second exemption, extending the property tax exemption to the end of July 2019 and the end of July 2020, respectively. Under the initial exemption, The Parisian Macao is tax exempt until the end of July 2022 and Sands Cotai Central has a distinct exemption for each hotel tower, which have varying expiration dates that range from the end of March 2018 to the end of November 2021. The Company is currently working on obtaining the second exemption for The Parisian Macao and Sands Cotai Central.
(5)Mall-related expenses consist of CAM, marketing fees and other direct operating expenses, property taxes and provision for doubtful accounts, but excludes depreciation and amortization and general and administrative costs.
Note: This table excludes the results of our retail outlets at Sands Macao.
(1)Minimum rents include base rents and straight-line adjustments of base rents.
(2)Rent concessions were provided to tenants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on mall operations.
(3)Commercial property that generates rental income is exempt from property tax for the first six years for newly constructed buildings in Cotai. If the property also qualifies for Tourism Utility Status, the property tax exemption can be extended to twelve years with effect from the opening of the property. The exemption for The Venetian Macao and The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Macao expired, and the exemption for The Londoner Macao and The Parisian Macao will be expiring in December 2027 and September 2028, respectively.
(4)Mall-related expenses consist of CAM, marketing fees and other direct operating expenses, property taxes and provision for credit losses, but excludes depreciation and amortization and general and administrative costs.
It is common in the mall operating industry for companies to disclose mall net operating income ("NOI"(“NOI”) as a useful supplemental measure of a mall'small’s operating performance. Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, interest expense, impairment losses, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, allocations to noncontrolling interests and provision for income taxes, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial real estate properties and the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.


In the tables above, we believe that taking total mall revenues less mall-related expenses provides an operating performance measure for our malls. Other mall operating companies may use different methodologies for deriving

mall-related expenses. As such, this calculation may not be comparable to the NOI of other mall operating companies.
Development Projects
As our integrated resorts mature, we continue to reinvest in our portfolio of properties to maintain our high quality products and remain competitive in the markets in which we operate. We are constantly evaluatingregularly evaluate opportunities to improve our product offerings, such as refreshing our meeting and convention facilities, suites and rooms, retail malls, restaurant and nightlife mix and our gaming areas, as well as other anticipated revenue generatingrevenue-generating additions to our integrated resorts.Integrated Resorts.
MacaoNew York
On June 2, 2023, we paid $241 million to acquire Nassau Live Center, LLC and related entities (the “Nassau Coliseum”), the owners and operators of an entertainment arena in the State of New York. The purchase of the Nassau Coliseum, which continues to operate following the closing of the sale, primarily included the fixed assets related to the arena and the right to lease the underlying land from the owner, the County of Nassau in the State of New York. We purchased the Nassau Coliseum with the intent to obtain a casino license from the State of New York to develop and operate an Integrated Resort. There is no assurance we will be able to obtain such casino license.
Singapore
In April 2019, our wholly owned subsidiary, MBS and the STB entered into a development agreement (the “Second Development Agreement”) pursuant to which MBS has agreed to construct a development, which will include a hotel tower with luxury rooms and suites, a rooftop attraction, convention and meeting facilities and a state-of-the-art live entertainment arena with approximately 15,000 seats (the “MBS Expansion Project”).
The Plaza CasinoSecond Development Agreement provides for a total minimum project cost of approximately 4.50 billion Singapore dollars (“SGD,” approximately $3.32 billion at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2023). The estimated cost and Four Seasons Hotel Macao
In October 2017, we announced that The Plaza Casino and Four Seasons Hotel Macao will feature an additional 295 new suites in a separate tower, The Four Seasons Macao Hotel Tower Suites. We have completed the structural worktiming of the towertotal project will be updated as we complete design and plan to commence build out of the suites in 2018.begin construction. We expect the total project cost will materially exceed the amounts referenced above from April 2019 based on current market conditions due to inflation, higher material and labor costs and other factors. We have incurred approximately $1.07 billion as of June 30, 2023, inclusive of the payment made in 2019 for the lease of the parcels of land underlying the MBS Expansion Project site.
On March 22, 2023, MBS and the STB entered into a supplemental agreement (the “Supplemental Agreement”), which further extended the construction commencement date to April 8, 2024 and the construction completion date to April 8, 2028, and allowed for changes to the construction and operation plans under the Second Development Agreement.
We amended our 2012 Singapore Credit Facility to provide for the financing of the development and construction costs, fees and other expenses related to the MBS Expansion Project pursuant to the Second Development Agreement. On September 7, 2021, we amended the 2012 Singapore Credit Facility, which, among other things, extended the deadline for delivering the construction cost estimate and the construction schedule for the MBS Expansion Project to March 31, 2022. As noted above, we are in the process of completing the design and reviewing the budget and timing of the MBS expansion due to various factors. As a result, the construction cost estimate and construction schedule were not delivered to the lenders by the extended deadline, and we will not be permitted to make further draws on the Singapore Delayed Draw Term Facility until these items are delivered. We do not anticipate material spend related to the MBS Expansion Project prior to the delivery of these items to lenders.
We are also accomplishing the approximately $1.0 billion renovation of Marina Bay Sands, which will introduce world-class suites in Tower 1 and Tower 2, and substantially upgrade the overall guest experience for premium customers. This project is in addition to our previously announced plans for the MBS Expansion Project and is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.
Macao
Under the Concession, we are required to invest a minimum of 30.24 billion patacas (approximately $3.75 billion at exchange rates in 2019.effect on June 30, 2023) in certain gaming and non-gaming projects in Macao by December 2032. The specific investments to be carried out are determined annually by VML and proposed to the Macao government for approval. These investments will be in connection with, among others, attracting

Capital Financing Overview
We fund our development projects primarily through borrowings from our credit facilities (see, "Part I — Item 1 — Financial Statements — Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 3 — Long-Term Debt")debt instruments and operating cash flows.
Our U.S., MacaoSCL and Singapore credit facilities, as amended, contain various financial covenants. The U.S. credit facility requires our Las Vegas operations to comply with a financial covenant at the end of each quarter to the extent that any revolving loans or certain letters of credit are outstanding. This financial covenant requires our Las Vegas operations to maintain a maximum leverage ratio of net debt, as defined, to trailing twelve-month adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, as defined ("Adjusted EBITDA"). The maximum leverage ratio is 5.5x for all quarterly periods through maturity. We can elect to contribute cash on hand to our Las Vegas operations on a bi-quarterly basis; such contributions having the effect of increasing Adjusted EBITDA during the applicable quarter for purposes of calculating compliance with the maximum leverage ratio. Our Macao credit facility requires our Macao operations to comply with similar financial covenants, includingwhich include maintaining a maximum leverage ratio, of debt to Adjusted EBITDA. The maximum leverage ratio is 3.5x for all quarterly periods through maturity. Our Singapore creditas defined per the respective facility requires our Marina Bay Sands operations to comply with similar financial covenants, including maintaining a maximum leverage ratio of debt to Adjusted EBITDA. The maximum leverage ratio is 3.5x for the quarterly periods ending September 30, 2017 through September 30, 2019, and then decreases to, and remains at, 3.0x for all quarterly periods thereafter through maturity.agreements. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, our U.S., Macao and Singapore leverage ratios, as defined per the respective credit facility agreements, were 0.5x, 1.8x3.7x and 2.0x,2.2x, respectively, compared to the maximum leverage ratios allowed of 5.5x, 3.5x4.0x and 3.5x,4.5x, respectively. If we are unable to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under these credit facilities, we would be in default under the respective credit facilities. Any defaults under these agreements would allow

We held unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.0$5.77 billion and restricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $11$124 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017, of2023, which approximately $1.04$2.03 billion of the unrestricted amount is held by non-U.S. subsidiaries. Of the $1.04$2.03 billion, approximately $857 million$1.66 billion is available to be repatriated, either in the form of dividends or via intercompany loans or advances, to the U.S. with minimal taxes owed on such amounts due, subject to the significant foreign taxes we paid, which would ultimately generate U.S. foreign tax credits iflevels of earnings, cash is repatriated.

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. Our primary exposureexposures to market risk isare interest rate risk associated with our variable rate long-term debt and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our operations outside the United States, which we may manage through the use of interest rate swaps, futures, options, caps, forward contracts and similar instruments. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes and do not enter into derivative transactions that would be considered speculative positions. Our derivative financial instruments currently consist primarily of foreign currency forward contracts, none of which have been designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes.
To manage exposure to counterparty credit risk in foreign currency forward contracts, we enter into agreements with highly rated institutions that can be expected to fully perform under the terms of such agreements. Frequently, these institutions are also members of the bank group providing our credit facilities, which management believes further minimizes the risk of nonperformance.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, the estimated fair value of our long-term debt was approximately $9.57$13.92 billion, compared to its carryingcontractual value of $9.71$14.79 billion. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is based on levelrecent trades, if available, and indicative pricing from market information (level 2 inputs (quoted prices in markets that are not active)inputs). As our long-term debt obligations are primarily variable-rate debt, aA hypothetical 100 basis point change in LIBOR, HIBOR and SOR is not expected to have a material impact onmarket rates would cause the fair value of our long-term debt. Based on variable-rate debt levels as of September 30, 2017, ato change by $336 million. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in LIBOR, HIBORSecured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), Hong Kong Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“HIBOR”) and SOR for the duration of a yearSwap Offer Rate (“SOR”) would cause our annual interest cost on our long-term debt to change by approximately $98$46 million.
Foreign currency transaction losses were $65$24 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, primarily due to Singapore dollar denominated intercompany debt reported in U.S. dollars and U.S. dollar denominated intercompany debt held in Macao.issued by SCL. We may be vulnerable to changes in the U.S. dollar/SGD and U.S. dollar/pataca exchange rates. Based on balances as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, a hypothetical10% strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar against the dollar/SGD (excluding the impact of foreign currency forward contracts)exchange rate would cause a foreign currency transaction gain of approximately $105 million or a loss of approximately $129$23 million, and a hypothetical 100 basis point change in1% weakening of the U.S. dollar/pataca exchange rate would cause a foreign currency transaction gain/loss of approximately $15 million.$61 million (net of the impact from the foreign currency swap agreements). The pataca is pegged to the Hong Kong dollar and the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar (within a narrow range). We maintain a significant amount of our operating funds in the same currencies in which we have obligations thereby reducing our exposure to currency fluctuations.
We manage a portion of our exposure to currency fluctuations with foreign currency forward contracts. As of September 30, 2017, we had eight foreign currency forward contracts with a total notional value of $144 million, contract expirations through December 2017 and a total liability fair value of $4 million. As of September 30, 2017, a hypothetical unfavorable 10% change in the U.S. dollar/SGD exchange rate would cause an increase in our unrealized loss by approximately $14 million.
