MGM Grand Paradise existing gaming subconcession and new gaming law. Gaming in Macau is currently administered by the Macau Government through concessions awarded to MGPthree different concessionaires and certainthree subconcessionaires. Pursuant to the agreement dated April 19, 2005 between MGM Grand Paradise and SJM Resorts S.A. ("SJMSA," formerly Sociedade de Jogos de Macau, S.A.), a gaming subconcession was acquired by MGM Grand Paradise for the right to operate casino games of chance and other casino games for a period commencing on April 20, 2005 through March 31, 2020. Pursuant to the then-existing Macau gaming law, upon reaching the maximum duration foreseen in the law (up to a maximum term of 20 years), the term of the Company’s related intercompany agreementsconcessions may be extended one or more times by order of the Chief Executive, which period may not exceed, in total, 5 years. In 2019, MGM Grand Paradise’s subconcession term was extended from March 31, 2020 to June 26, 2022, consistent with MGPthe expiration of the other concessionaires and subconcessionaires. On June 23, 2022, MGM Grand Paradise entered into an addendum to its subconcession pursuant to which its gaming subconcession was extended to December 31, 2022 (refer to Note 6 for additional considerations relating to the gaming subconcession). In connection with the extension, MGM Grand Paradise paid the Macau government MOP 47 million (approximately $6 million) and provided a bank guarantee to secure the fulfillment of MGM Grand Paradise’s existing commitment of labor liabilities upon expiration of its subconcession (refer to Note 10 for discussion on the guarantee). Additionally, MGM Grand Paradise executed an agreement with the Macau government pursuant to which the casino areas of MGM Cotai and MGM Macau will be reverted, free of charge and without any encumbrances, to the Macau government at the end of the extended subconcession period on December 31, 2022. Management anticipates the gaming assets subject to reversion will be assets used in gaming operations, as well as the gaming areas determined in the agreement. Upon reversion, MGM Grand Paradise will cease to have the legal ownership of the gaming assets, and, while management is currently evaluating the effect of the reversion, it expects that it will retain use of such assets if it is able to obtain a gaming concession in the forthcoming public tender.

On January 14, 2022, the Macau government disclosed the content of a proposed bill to amend Macau gaming law, which followed a 45-day public consultation process regarding draft amendment proposals that were issued in September 2021. The new gaming law was approved by the Macau Legislative Assembly on June 21, 2022 and published in the Macau Official Gazette on June 22, 2022. Under the new gaming law, the existing subconcessions will be discontinued and a maximum of six concessions will be awarded for a term to be specified in the concession contract that may not exceed 10 years and which may be extended by three years under certain exceptional circumstances. The enactment of the new gaming law precedes the public tender for the awarding of new gaming concessions for which the rules of the public tender were published on July 1, 2022, which outlined the details for the bidding, the qualifications of bidding companies, and the criteria for granting the new gaming concessions. On September 14, 2022, MGM Grand Paradise submitted its bid. The awarding of a new concession contract would permit the operation of games of chance or other games in casinos in Macau, commencing on January 1, 2023.

Certain events relating to the Operating Partnership.

loss, termination, rescission, revocation or modification of MGM Grand Paradise’s ability to game in Macau, where such events have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business, properties, or results of operations of MGM China, taken as a whole, may result in a special put option triggering event under MGM China’s senior notes and in an event of default under MGM China’s revolving credit facilities. Management cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to obtain a gaming concession in the public tender; however, management believes that MGM Grand Paradise will be successful in obtaining a gaming concession.


Reportable segments. The Company has an approximately 56% controlling interest in MGM China, which owns MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. (“MGM Grand Paradise”), the Macau company that owns and operates the MGM Macau resort and casino and the related gaming subconcession and land concessions, and is in the process of developing an 18 acre site on the Cotai Strip in Macau (“MGM Cotai”).

Macau is currently operating under a “dynamic zero” COVID-19 policy, as is mainland China. The Company’s properties in Macau were open during the first half of 2022, however, gaming operations were temporarily suspended on July 11, 2022 due to an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases in Macau and resumed on July 23, 2022, subject to certain continuing health safeguards. On October 30, 2022, a COVID-19 case was identified as connected to MGM Cotai. All guests and staff were isolated until November 1, 2022 and all gaming, hotel, restaurant, and retail operations were suspended with limited operations expected to resume beginning November 3, 2022. More broadly, electronic applications for individual and group travel visas to Macau resumed on November 1, 2022, however, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau and mainland China remain in place, including COVID-19 testing and certain quarantine requirements, which have significantly impacted visitation to the Company’s Macau properties. Although gaming operations in Macau have resumed and certain restrictions on visa applications have been lifted, protective and operational measures have had a negative effect on MGM China’s operations. The extent and timing of further closures of MGM China’s properties, limitations of operations, or whether further travel restrictions to or from Macau will be implemented is uncertain if there is an increase or continued spread of COVID-19.

NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of presentation.presentation. As permitted by 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 (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 20162021 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

2021.


In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s interim financial statements. The results for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


Principles of consolidation. For entities not determined to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”), the Company consolidates such entities in which the Company owns 100% of the equity. For entities in which the Company owns less than 100% of the equity interest, the Company consolidates the entity if it has the direct or indirect ability to control the entities’ activities based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements. For these entities, the Company records a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates which are 50% or less owned are accounted for under the equity method when the Company can exercise significant influence over or has joint control of the unconsolidated affiliate. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

consolidation. The Company evaluates entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. A VIE is anvariable interest entity in which either (i) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the entity.(“VIE”). The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary. For these VIEs, the Company records a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.


Management has determined that MGPthe venture (the “Bellagio BREIT Venture”) that is 5% owned by a subsidiary of the Company and 95% owned by a subsidiary of BREIT is a VIE because the Class A equity investorsholders as a group lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance. The


Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of MGP and consolidates MGPBellagio BREIT Venture because (i) its ownership of MGP’s single Class B share entitles it to a majority of the total voting power of MGP’s shares, and (ii) the exchangeable nature of the Operating Partnership units owned provide the Company does not have power to direct the right to receive benefits from MGPactivities that could potentially be significant to MGP.the venture as BREIT, as the managing member, has such power; accordingly, the Company does not consolidate the venture. The Company has recorded MGP’s ownership interestCompany’s maximum exposure to loss in Bellagio BREIT Venture is equal to the Operating Partnership (27.7%carrying value of its investment of $57 million as of September 30, 2017)2022, assuming no future capital funding requirements, plus the exposure to loss resulting from the Company’s guarantee of the debt of Bellagio BREIT Venture, which guarantee is immaterial as of September 30, 2022, as further discussed in Note 10.


For entities determined not to be a VIE, the Company consolidates such entities in which the Company owns 100% of the equity. For entities in which the Company owns less than 100% of the equity interest, the Company consolidates the entity under the voting interest model if it has a controlling financial interest based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements, such as MGM China. For these entities, the Company records a noncontrolling interest in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and all intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. If the entity does not qualify for consolidation under the voting interest model and the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial statements. decisions of the entity, the Company generally accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as BetMGM, which does not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entity is structured with substantive participating rights whereby both owners participate in the decision making process, which prevents the Company from exerting a controlling financial interest in such entity, as defined in ASC 810. For entities over which the Company does not have significant influence, such as VICI OP, the Company accounts for its equity investment under ASC 321.

Property and equipment. As of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016, on a consolidated basis, MGP2021, the Company had total assetsaccrued $83 million and $36 million, respectively, for purchases of $10.1 billionproperty and $9.5 billion, respectively, primarily related to its real estate investments, and total liabilities of $4.3 billion and $3.9 billion, respectively, primarily related to its indebtedness.

Fair value measurements.measurements. Fair value measurements affect the Company’s accounting and impairment assessments of its long-lived assets, investments in unconsolidated affiliates cost method investments,or equity interests, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in an acquisition, and goodwill and other intangible assets. Fair value measurements also affect the Company’s accounting for certain of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as 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 and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes: Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices in an active market; Level 2 inputs, which are observable inputs for similar assets; or Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs. The Company used the following inputs in its fair value measurements:


Level 1 inputs when measuring its equity investments recorded at fair value;

Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for its long-term debt fair value disclosures (seedisclosures. See Note 5);7; and

Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 inputs when measuringassessing the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions. See Note 3.


Fair value is measured based upon trading prices on the applicable securities exchange for equity investments for which the Company has elected the fair value option of ASC 825, such as LeoVegas (prior to consolidation), and equity investments accounted for under ASC 321 that have a readily determinable fair value, such as VICI OP. The fair value of these investments was $423 million and $66 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is reflected within “Other long-term assets, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in “Other, net” in the statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a net unrealized loss on its interestequity investments of $20 million and $28 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded a net unrealized loss on its equity investments of $48 million and a net unrealized gain on its equity investments of $39 million, respectively.

Restricted cash. Restricted cash reflects cash held in an escrow account related to the reverse termination fee that was contractually required to be prefunded for The Cosmopolitan acquisition and was reflected as “Restricted Cash” on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021. “Restricted Cash” and “Cash and cash equivalents” on the consolidated balance sheets equal “Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash” on the consolidated statements of cash flows as of December 31, 2021.

Accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the loss reserve on accounts receivable was $113 million and $128 million, respectively.

Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period presentation.

Revenue recognition.Contract and Contract-Related Liabilities. There may be a difference between the timing of cash receipts from the customer and the recognition of revenue, resulting in a contract or contract-related liability. The Company generally has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, which represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by a customer, (2) loyalty program obligations, which represents the deferred allocation of revenue relating to loyalty program incentives earned, and (3) customer advances and other, which is primarily funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs (“casino front money”) and advance payments on goods and services yet to be provided, such as advance ticket sales and deposits on rooms and convention space or for unpaid wagers. These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited and are recorded within “Other accrued liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the activity related to contract and contract-related liabilities:

Revenue by source. The Company presents the revenue earned disaggregated by the type or nature of the good or service (casino, room, food and beverage, and entertainment, retail and other) and by relevant geographic region within Note 13.

Leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception or modification of the arrangement. An arrangement is or contains a lease if there are identified assets and the right to control the use of an identified asset is conveyed for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company classifies a lease with terms greater than twelve months as either operating or finance. At commencement, the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of ROU assets also includes any prepaid lease payments and are reduced by any previously accrued deferred rent. When available, such as for the Company’s triple-net operating leases for which the lessor has provided its implicit rate swaps (see Note 6).

Property and equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. A significant amountor provided the assumptions required for the Company to readily determine the rate implicit in the lease, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value. However, for most of the Company’s propertyleases, such as its ground subleases and equipment leases, the Company cannot readily determine the implicit rate. Accordingly, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments for such leases based on the information available at the commencement date. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such option will be exercised. The Company’s triple-net operating leases each contain renewal periods at the Company’s option, each of which are not considered to be reasonably certain of being exercised. Many of the Company’s leases include fixed rental escalation clauses that are factored into the determination of lease payments. For operating leases, lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. For finance leases, the ROU asset depreciates on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the ROU asset and the lease liability accretes interest based on the interest method using the discount rate determined at lease commencement.


Refer to Note 9 for discussion of leases under which the Company is a lessee. Refer to Note 14 for discussion of the master lease with MGP.

The Company is a lessor under certain other lease arrangements. Lease revenues earned by the Company from third parties are classified within the line item corresponding to the type or nature of the tenant’s good or service. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $19 million and $52 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively, and $30 million and $85 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue for the same such periods, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $13 million and $29 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively, and $22 million and $58 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue for the same such periods, respectively. Lease revenues from the rental of hotel rooms are recorded as rooms revenues within the consolidated statements of operations.

Share repurchases. Shares repurchased pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase plans are retired upon purchase. The cost of the repurchases in excess of the aggregate par value of the shares reduces capital in excess of par value, to the extent available, with any residual cost applied against retained earnings.

Prior to the acquisition, the Company held a 50% ownership interest, which was accounted for under the equity method. Through the acquisition, the Company obtained 100% of the equity interests and therefore consolidated CityCenter as of September 27, 2021. The fair value of the equity interests was determined by the transaction price and equaled $4.25 billion. The carrying value of the Company's equity method investment was less than its share of the fair value of CityCenter at the acquisition date, resulting in a net gain of $1.6 billion upon consolidation, which was recognized as "Gain on consolidation of CityCenter, net" on the consolidated statements of operations.

On September 28, 2021, the Company sold the real estate assets of Aria (including Vdara) for cash consideration of $3.89 billion and entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which the Company leases back the real property. The Company classified the real estate assets as held for sale as of the acquisition date and accordingly measured the real estate assets at fair value less costs to sell, as reflected in the table below. See Note 9 for discussion of the lease.

The Company recognized 100% of the assets and liabilities of CityCenter at fair value at the date of the acquisition. Under the acquisition method, the fair value was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction. The Company estimated fair value using level 1 inputs, level 2 inputs, and level 3 inputs. The fair value of the acquired indefinite-lived trademarks was determined using methodologies under the relief from royalty method based on significant inputs that were not observable. The goodwill is primarily attributable to the profitability of CityCenter in excess of identifiable assets, of which approximately 50% of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Company’s Las Vegas Strip Resorts segment.

VICI Transaction.On April 29, 2022, VICI acquired MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction. MGP Class A shareholders received 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and the Company received 1.366 units of VICI OP in exchange for each MGP OP unit held by the Company. The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021. In connection with the exchange, VICI OP redeemed the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate 1% ownership interest in VICI OP that had a fair value of approximately $375 million. MGP’s Class B share that was held by the Company was cancelled. Accordingly, the Company no longer holds a controlling interest in MGP and deconsolidated MGP upon the closing of the transactions. Further, the Company entered into an amended and restated master lease with VICI as discussed in Note 9. The lease between the Company and VICI BREIT Venture for the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas remained unchanged.

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

Upon closing, the master lease between the Company and VICI will be amended to remove The Mirage and to reflect a $90 million reduction in annual cash rent. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2022, subject to certain closing conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of regulatory approvals. The closing condition that the VICI Transaction is consummated or terminated was resolved upon the closing of such transaction and, accordingly, the asset group is classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2022.

Goodwill was recognized in 2022 related to the acquisition of the operations of The Cosmopolitan and LeoVegas, which is included in Las Vegas Strip Resorts and Corporate and other, respectively. Goodwill related to The Mirage and Gold Strike Tunica, which are included in Las Vegas Strip Resorts and Regional Operations, respectively, were reclassified into assets held for sale in 2022 as further discussed in Note 3. Goodwill was recognized in 2021 related to the acquisition of the 50% ownership interest in CityCenter, which is included in Las Vegas Strip Resorts.

MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession. As described in Note 1, the enactment of the new Macau gaming law in June 2022 provides for material changes to the legal form of gaming concessions in Macau, including discontinuing and prohibiting gaming subconcessions subsequent to their expiration, and also includes material changes to the rights and obligations provided for under the new gaming concessions to be awarded in the upcoming public tender. As a result, the Company determined that the existing MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession and new gaming concession, if obtained, would be two separate units of account.

Further, as the material changes in the legal and regulatory environment could have an adverse effect on the value of MGM Grand Paradise’s gaming subconcession, the Company concluded that a triggering event had occurred under ASC 360 in June 2022 for the MGM China asset group. The Company compared the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the asset group to its carrying value and determined that the undiscounted cash flows significantly exceeded the carrying value and therefore, no impairment was indicated.

Additionally, in June 2022, the Company reassessed the useful life of the existing gaming subconcession intangible asset and determined that, given the new gaming law and the resulting changes described above, the useful life would no longer be based on the initial term of the MGM Cotai land concession, which ends in January 2038, and that the useful life should be revised to align with the cessation of the subconcession rights that will occur at the end of the contractual term of the existing gaming subconcession, which ends on December 31, 2022. Accordingly, amortization of the MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession will be recognized on a straight-line basis over its reduced useful life.

NOTE 8 — INCOME TAXES

For interim income tax reporting the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies it to its year-to-date ordinary income. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 39.5%a benefit of 10.6% on loss before income taxes and 27.3%a provision of 43.8% on income before income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,2022, respectively, compared to a provision of 17.4% and 16.9% on income before income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.


The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets, net of applicable reserves, related to net operating losses, tax loss and credit carryforwards and othercertain temporary differences with adifferences. The Company recognizes future tax benefitbenefits to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not. Otherwise, a valuation allowance is applied.

The Company has generated significant excess foreign tax credits that are attributable to


During the Macau Special Gaming Tax, which is 35% of gross gaming revenue in Macau. Because MGM Grand Paradise is presently exempt from the Macau 12% complementary tax on gaming profits,three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company believes that payment of the Macau Special Gaming Tax qualifies as a tax paid in lieu of an income tax that is creditable against U.S. taxes. As long as the exemption from Macau’s 12% complementary tax on gaming profits continues and the Company continues to receive distributions from MGM China, the Company expects that it will generate excess foreign tax credits in most years and that most of the excess foreign credits will not be utilized before the exemption expires. On September 7, 2016, MGM Grand Paradise was granted an additional extension of the complementary tax exemption through March 31, 2020, concurrent with the end of the term ofdecreased its current gaming subconcession. A competitor of MGM Grand Paradise subsequently received an additional extension of its exemption through March 31, 2020, which also runs concurrent with the end of the term of its current gaming concession. Based upon these developments and the uncertainty concerning taxation after the concession renewal process, the Company has assumed that MGM Grand Paradise will pay the Macau 12% complementary tax on gaming profits for all periods beyond March 31, 2020 and it will thus not be able to credit the Macau Special Gaming Tax in such years, and has factored that assumption into its assessment of the realization of the foreign tax credit deferred tax asset and the measurement of Macau deferred tax liabilities.

MGM Grand Paradise’sliabilities by $296 million as a result of an extension of the exemption from the Macau 12% complementary tax on gaming profits does not apply to dividend distributions of such profits to MGM China. However, MGM Grand Paradise has had an agreement with the Macau government to settle the 12% complementary tax that would otherwise be due by its shareholder, MGM China, on distributions of its gaming profits by paying a flat annual payment (“annual fee arrangement”) regardlessend of the amount of distributable dividends. Such annual fee arrangement was effective for distributions of profits earned through December 31, 2016. MGM China was not subjectyear, with a corresponding decrease to the complementary tax on distributions covered by the annual fee arrangement. Annual payments of $2 million were required under the annual fee arrangement. MGM Grand Paradise has requested an extension of this agreement to cover distributions of profits earned through December 31, 2021. However, no assurance can be given that an extension will be granted or that the terms, if granted, will not be less favorable than the prior agreement. Since 2017 earnings are not currently covered by an annual fee arrangement, the


Company is providing deferred taxes on such earnings in estimating its annual effective tax rate for 2017. If an extension is granted in a future period, the Company will reverse all associated deferred taxes, which total $28 million as of September 30, 2017, resulting in a reduction in provision for income taxes in such period.

The Company’s assessment of realization ofand increased its foreign tax creditstate deferred tax asset is based on available evidence, including assumptions about future profitability of and distributions from MGM China, as well as its assumption concerning renewals of the exemption from Macau’s 12% complementary tax on gaming profits and future profitability of its U.S. operations. Asliabilities by $59 million with a result, significant judgment is required in assessing the possible need for and amount of valuation allowance and changescorresponding increase to such assumptions may have a material impact on the amount of the valuation allowance. For example, should the Company in a future period actually receive or be able to assume an additional five-year exemption, an additional valuation allowance would likely need to be provided on some portion or all of the foreign tax credit deferred tax asset, resulting in an increase in the provision for income taxes in such period, and such increase may be material. In addition, a change to forecasts of future profitability of, and distributions from, MGM China could also result in a material change in the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact on the provision for income taxes in such period.

Recently issued accounting standards. In 2015 and 2016, the FASB issued the following ASUs related to revenue recognition, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, pursuant to ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date”:  

ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASU 2014-09”) outlines a new, single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 provides for a new revenue recognition model which includes a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized, including identification of separate performance obligations for each contract with a customer. Additionally, the new model will require revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services;

ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” (“ASU 2016-08”) clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations as it relates to ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-08 provides guidance related to the assessment an entity is required to perform to determine whether the nature of its promise is to provide the specified good or service itself (that is, the entity is a principal) or to arrange for that good or service to be provided by the other party (that is, the entity is an agent) when another party is involved in providing goods or services to a customer;

ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” (“ASU 2016-10”) clarifies guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance as it relates to ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-10 includes targeted improvements based on input the FASB received from the Transition Resource Group for Revenue Recognition and other stakeholders. It seeks to proactively address areas in which diversity in practice potentially could arise, as well as to reduce the cost and complexity of applying certain aspects of the guidance both at implementation and on an ongoing basis; and

ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” (“ASU 2016-12”) addresses narrow-scope improvements to the guidance on collectability, noncash consideration and completed contracts at transition as it relates to ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-12 provides for a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition and an accounting policy election related to the presentation of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers.

The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of the above ASUs related to revenue recognition will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures. However, the Company has identified a few significant impacts. Under the new guidance, the Company expects it will no longer be permitted to recognize revenues for goods and services provided to customers for free as an inducement to gamble as gross revenue with a corresponding offset to promotional allowances to arrive at net revenues. The Company expects the majority of such amounts will offset casino revenues. In addition, accounting for Express Comps granted under the Company’s M life Rewards program will also change. Under the new guidance, Express Comps earned by customers through past revenue transactions will be identified as separate performance obligations and recorded as a reduction in gaming revenues when earned at the retail value of such benefits owed to the customer (less estimated breakage). When customers redeem such benefits and the performance obligation is fulfilled by the Company, revenue will be recognized in the department that provides the goods or services (i.e., hotel, food and beverage, or entertainment). The Company also expects impacts related to its loyalty programs and gaming promoter incentive programs at MGM Macau, which will affect classification of revenues and expenses. The Company expects to adopt the above ASUs on a full retrospective basis.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”), which replaces the existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, “Leases.” ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 requires a dual approach for lessee accounting under which a lessee would account for leases as finance leases or operating leases. Both finance leases and operating leases will result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability. For finance leases, the lessee would recognize interest expense and amortization of the ROU asset and for operating leases the lessee would recognize a straight-line total lease expense. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force),” (“ASU 2016-15”), effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2016-15 amends the guidance of ASC 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles, specifically clarifying the guidance on eight cash flow issues. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-15 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718),” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 has separate transition guidance for each element of the new standard. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In January 2017, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-17, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held Through Related Parties that are Under Common Control,” (“ASU 2016-17”). The amendments affect the evaluation of whether to consolidate a VIE in certain situations involving entities under common control. Specifically, the amendments change the evaluation of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE for an entity that is a single decision-maker of a variable interest by changing how an entity treats indirect interests in the VIE held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity. The guidance in ASU 2016-17 must be applied retrospectively to all relevant periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-17 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In January 2017, the Company early adopted ASU No. 2017-04, “IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amended guidance, the Company will perform its annual goodwill impairment tests (and interim tests if any are determined to be necessary) by comparing the fair value of its reporting units with their carrying value, and an impairment charge, if any, will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

NOTE 3 — BORGATA ACQUISITION

On August 1, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of Boyd Gaming Corporation’s (“Boyd Gaming”) ownership interest in Borgata. Following the completion of the acquisition of Boyd Gaming’s interest, MGP acquired Borgata’s real property from the Company and leased back the real property to a subsidiary of the Company.

As part of the purchase and sale agreement to acquire Borgata, the Company agreed to pay Boyd Gaming half of any net amount received or utilized by the Company as it relates to the Atlantic City property tax refund owed to Borgata at the time of the transaction. Pursuant to tax court judgments, The City of Atlantic City, New Jersey (“Atlantic City”) owed Borgata property tax refunds of approximately $106 million, plus interest, related to the over-assessment of property values for the 2009-2012 tax years. As a result of funding shortfalls,income tax regulations published by the City of Atlantic City did not pay the refunds due to Borgata. See Note 7 for information regarding the property tax reimbursement agreement Borgata entered into in February 2017 with the Department of Community Affairs of the Statestate of New Jersey and Atlantic City, andduring the subsequent receipt of the settlement amount in June 2017.

Through the acquisition of Boyd Gaming’s interest in Borgata, the Company obtained 100% of the equity interests in Borgata and therefore consolidated Borgata as of August 1, 2016. The Company recognized 100% of the assets and liabilities of Borgata at fair value at the date of the acquisition. Prior to the acquisition, the Company held a 50% ownership interest in Borgata, which was accounted for under the equity method.

Pro forma information. The operating results for Borgata are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information for the Company has been prepared assuming the Company’s acquisition of its controlling interest had occurred as of January 1, 2015.

The basis differences primarily related to other-than-temporary impairment charges recorded on the Company’s investment in CityCenter that were allocated to Crystals’ building assets. The results of Crystals are classified as discontinued operations in the summarized income statement information.

CityCenter credit facility. In April 2017, CityCenter completed a refinancing of its senior credit facility. The new senior credit facility consists of a $1.6 billion term loan B facility maturing in April 2024 and a $125 million revolving credit facility maturing in April 2022. The term loan B was issued at 99.5% and bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. The revolving facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.00%.

CityCenter distributions. In April 2017, CityCenter paid a $600 million dividend, consisting of a $350 million dividend using proceeds from the upsized senior credit facilities and a $250 million dividend from cash on hand, of which $78 million was part of its annual dividend policy. MGM Resorts received its 50% share, or $300 million. In March 2016, a $90 million distribution was declared in accordance with CityCenter’s annual distribution policy and in April 2016, CityCenter declared a $990 million special distribution in connection with the Crystals sale.

Debt due withinleases requires the Company to pay substantially all costs associated with each property, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and routine maintenance (with each lease obligating the Company to spend a specified percentage of net revenues at the properties on capital expenditures), in addition to the annual cash rent. Each of the leases also requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants, which, if not met, would require the Company to maintain cash security or provide one or more letters of credit in favor of the landlord in an amount equal to 6 months or 1 year of the September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 balance sheets was classifiedrent, as long-term as the Company had both the intent and ability to refinance current maturities on a long-term basis under its revolving senior credit facilities, with the exception that $478 million, net of debt issuance costs, relatedapplicable to the circumstances, under the VICI lease, 1 year of rent under the Mandalay Bay and MGM National Harbor credit facility was classified as current at September 30, 2017 becauseGrand Las Vegas lease, the outstanding amount was repaid in October 2017Aria lease, and $8 millionThe Cosmopolitan lease, and 2 years of MGP’s quarterly amortization paymentsrent under its senior credit facility were classified as current at December 31, 2016 because MGP used cash to make such amortization payments in January 2017.

Senior credit facility. At September 30, 2017, the Company’s senior credit facility consisted of a $241 million term loan A facility and a $1.25 billion revolving facility. The revolving facility and the term loan A facility bear interest determined by reference to a total net leverage ratio pricing grid which results in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75%. Both the term loan A facility and the revolving facility will mature in April 2021. The term loan A facility is subject to amortization of principal in equal quarterly installments, with 5.0% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the term loan A facility to be payable each year. The Company permanently repaid $3 million and $9 million of the term loan A facility in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, in accordance with the scheduled amortization. At September 30, 2017, $300 million was drawn on the revolving credit facility. At September 30, 2017, the interest rate on the term loan A facility was 3.49% and the interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 3.44%.

The senior credit facility contains representations and warranties, customary events of default, and positive, negative and financial covenants, including that the Company maintain compliance with a maximum total net leverage ratio, a maximum first lien net leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio.Bellagio lease.

Prior to February 2017, the term loan B facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. In February 2017, the Operating Partnership received a reduction of its term loan B interest rate to LIBOR plus 2.50%, with a LIBOR floor of 0.75% upon achieving a minimum corporate family rating of Ba3/BB-.

(1)Included within “Other” within “Cash flows from financing activities” on behalf of individuals who are seeking damages for emotional distress, physical injury, medical expenses, economic damages and/or wrongful death based on assertions that the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries were negligent. Pending lawsuits were first filed in October 2017 and include two individual actions filed in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada and three individual actions and one putative class action filed in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, California. Additional lawsuits related to this incident may be filed in the future.

The Company is currently unable to reliably predict the developments in, outcome of, and economic costs and other consequences of pending or future litigation related to this matter. The Company will continue to investigate the factual and legal defenses, and evaluate these matters based on subsequent events, new information and future circumstances. The Company intends to defend against these lawsuits and ultimately believes it should prevail, but litigation of this type is inherently unpredictable. Although there are significant procedural, factual and legal issues to be resolved that could significantly affect the Company’s belief as to the possibility of liability, the Company currently believes that it is reasonably possible that it could incur liability in connection with certain of these lawsuits. The foregoing determination was made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as codified in ASC 450-20, and is not an admission of any liability on the part of the Company or any of its affiliates. Given that these cases are in the early stages and in light of the uncertainties surrounding them, the Company does not currently possess sufficient


information to determine a range of reasonably possible liability. In the event the Company incurs any liability, the Company believes it is unlikely it would incur losses in connection with these claims in excess of its insurance coverage.

Borgata property tax reimbursement agreement. On February 15, 2017, Borgata, the Department of Community Affairs of the State of New Jersey and Atlantic City entered into an agreement wherein Borgata was to be reimbursed $72 million as settlement for property tax refunds in satisfaction of New Jersey Tax Court and Superior Court judgments totaling approximately $106 million, plus interest for the 2009-2012 tax years and the settlement of pending tax appeals for the tax years 2013-2015. Those pending tax appeals could potentially have resulted in Borgata being awarded additional refunds due of approximately $65 million. In June 2017, Atlantic City and the State of New Jersey issued bonds and used the proceeds to pay the $72 million settlement in full. The Company recorded the amounts received pursuant to the reimbursement agreement as an offset to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As required by the purchase and sale agreement to acquire Borgata in August 2016, the Company paid Boyd Gaming halfcash flows.

NV Energy. In July 2016, the Company filed its notice to exit the fully bundled sales system of NV Energy and now purchases energy, capacity, and/or ancillary services from a provider other than NV Energy. The Company paid an upfront impact payment of $83 million, including $14 million related to CityCenter, in September 2016. Under the terms of the exit agreement, the Company and CityCenter were required to make ongoing payments to NV Energy for non-bypassable rate charges, which primarily relate to each entity’s share of NV Energy’s portfolio of renewable energy contracts which extended through 2040 and each entity’s share of the costs of decommissioning and remediation of coal-fired power plants in Nevada. The Company’s initial estimate of its obligation related to non-bypassable charges was $71 million. The expense recognized related to the upfront payment and the initial accrual for the liability associated with the non-bypassable charges was recognized within “NV Energy exit expense” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Subsequent accretion of the liability and changes in estimates are recognized within general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. In the second quarter of 2017, the terms of the ongoing impact fee obligations were modified. Such modifications included a credit to be applied against future non-bypassable rate charges and substantially shortened the period over which the Company and CityCenter are responsible for such charges, with an end date in 2022. As such, the Company recognized a reduction in its liability for future charges of $41 million with a corresponding credit to “NV Energy exit expense”. Additionally, CityCenter recorded an $8 million reduction in liability and credit to expense. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company has recorded an estimate of its liability on a discounted basis of $9 million and $8 million, respectively, in “Other accrued liabilities” and $25 million and $63 million, respectively, in “Other long-term obligations.”

T-Mobile Arena senior credit facility. The Company is party to a repayment guarantee for the term loan B facility under the Las Vegas Arena Company’s senior credit facility. As of September 30, 2017, the term loan B was $50 million.

Other guarantees. The Company and its subsidiaries are party to various guarantee contracts in the normal course of business, which are generally supported by letters of credit issued by financial institutions. The Company’s senior credit facility limits the amount of letters of credit that can be issued to $250 million, MGP’s senior credit facility limits the amount to $75 million, MGM China’s credit facility limits the amount to $100 million, and MGM National Harbor’s credit facility limits the amount to $30 million. At September 30, 2017, $15 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the Company’s senior credit facility and $39 million in letters of credit were outstanding under MGM China’s credit facility. No letters of credit were outstanding under the MGP senior credit facility and the MGM National Harbor credit facility at September 30, 2017. The amounts of available borrowings under each of the credit facilities are reduced by any outstanding letters of credit.

This guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.

VICI BREIT Venture shortfall guarantee. The Company provides a shortfall guarantee of the $3.0 billion principal amount of indebtedness (and any interest accrued and unpaid thereon) of VICI BREIT Venture, which has an initial term of 12 years, maturing in 2032, with an anticipated repayment date of March 2030.

MGP. PursuantSpringfield pursuant to a master lease agreement by and between the Tenant, which is a subsidiary of the Company and the Landlord, which is a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, the Tenant has leased MGP’s real estate assets from the Landlord. with MGP.


The master lease has an initial lease term of ten years with the potential to extend the term for four additional five-year terms thereafter at the option of the Tenant. The master lease provides that any extension of its term must apply to all of the real estateannual cash rent payments under the master lease at the time of the extension. The master lease has a triple-net structure, which requires the Tenant to pay substantially all costs associated with the lease, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and routine maintenance, in addition to the base rent. Additionally, the master lease provides the Landlord with a right of first offer with respect to the Company’s development property located in Springfield, Massachusetts, which the Landlord may exercise should the Company elect to sell this property in the future.

In October 2017, MGP acquired the long-term leasehold interest and real property associated with MGM National Harbor from a subsidiary of the Company in exchange for cash of $463 million, the assumption of $425 million of indebtedness and the issuance of 9.8 million Operating Partnership units to a subsidiary of the Company. In connection with this transaction, the Tenant and Landlord entered into an amendment to the master lease to include the MGM National Harbor property.

The annual rent payments due under the master lease for the firstseventh lease year, ending March 31, 2017 were $550which commenced on April 1, 2022, increased to $877 million prior to MGP’s acquisition of Borgata’s real property on August 1, 2016. Subsequentfrom $873 million, due to the acquisition,sixth 2% annual base rent payments under the master lease increased to $650 million, prorated for the remainder of the first lease year after the Borgata transaction. Rent under the master lease consists of a “base rent” component and a “percentage rent” component. For the second lease year commencingescalator that went into effect on April 1, 2017, annual rent payments due under2022, as the master lease were $662 million, which included base rent of approximately $597 milliontenant and percentage rent of approximately $65 million. In October 2017, subsequent to MGP’s acquisition of MGM National Harbor’s real property, annual rent payments under the master lease increased to $757 million, prorated for the remainder of the second lease year. Base rent under the master lease increased to $682 million and the percentage rent increased to $75 million. The base rent includes a fixed annual rent escalator of 2.0% for the second through the sixth lease years (as defined in the master lease). Thereafter, the annual escalator of 2.0% will be subject to the Tenant and, without duplication, the operating subsidiary sublessees ofsublessee, collectively, met the Tenant, collectively meeting an adjusted net revenue to rent ratio of 6.25:1.00on which such escalator was contingent, which increased annual cash rent by $16 million, partially offset by the percentage rent reset that went into effect on April 1, 2022, calculated based on their net revenue from the leased properties subject to the master lease (as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, adjusted to exclude net revenue attributable to certain scheduled subleases and, at the Company’s option, reimbursed cost revenue). The percentage rent will initially be a fixed amount for approximately the first six years and will then be adjusted every five years based on theof average actual annual net revenuesrevenue of the Tenant and, without duplication, the operating subsidiary sublessees of the Tenant, from the leased properties subject toduring the master lease at such time for the trailingpreceding five calendar-yearyear period, (calculatedwhich decreased annual cash rent by multiplying the average annual net revenues, excluding net revenue attributable to certain scheduled subleases and, at the Landlord’s option, reimbursed cost revenue, for the trailing five calendar-year period by 1.4%). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company made rent payments to MGP in the amount of $165 million and $493 million, respectively.

Pursuant to the master lease, upon an event of default the Landlord may, at its option (i) terminate the master lease, repossess any leased property, relet any leased property to a third party and require that the Tenant pay damages; (ii) require that the Tenant pay to the Landlord rent and other sums payable with interest calculated at the overdue rate provided for in the master lease or terminate the Tenant’s right to possession of the leased property and seek damages; and/or (iii) seek any and all other rights and remedies available under law or in equity. An event of default will be deemed to occur upon certain events, including: (1) the failure by the Tenant to pay rent or other additional charges when due; (2) failure by the Tenant to comply with the covenants set forth in the master lease; (3) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to a Tenant or the guarantor; (4) the occurrence of a default under the guaranty of the master lease; (5) the loss or suspension of a material license that causes cessation of gaming activity that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Tenant, the facilities or the leased properties taken as a whole; and (6) the failure of the Company, on a consolidated basis with Tenant, to maintain an EBITDAR to rent ratio (as described in the master lease) of at least 1.10:1.00 for two consecutive test periods. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as of September 30, 2017.

The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods. MGM Resorts International together with its subsidiaries may be referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” MGM China Holdings Limited together with its subsidiaries is referred to as “MGM China.” MGM Growth Properties LLC together with its subsidiaries is referred to as “MGP.”

Executive Overview


Description of our business

Our primary business is the ownership and operation of integrated casino resorts, which offer gaming, hotel, convention, dining, entertainment, retail and other resort amenities. We own or invest inoperate several of the finest casino resorts in the world and we continually reinvest in our resorts to maintain our competitive advantage. Most of our revenue is cash-based, through customers wagering with cash or paying for non-gaming services with cash or credit cards. We rely heavily on the ability of our resorts to generate operating cash flow to fund capital expenditures, provide excess cash flow for future development, and repay debt financings.financings, and return capital to our shareholders. We make significant investments in our resorts through newly remodeled hotel rooms, restaurants, entertainment and nightlife offerings, as well as other new features and amenities.

According to the Las Vegas Convention We also offer online gaming and Visitors Authority, Las Vegas visitor volume decreased 1%, Las Vegas Strip REVPAR increased 4% and Las Vegas Strip gaming revenue increased 4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period. Results of operations forsports betting through LeoVegas, our domestic resorts in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 benefited from an increase in operating margins. Our rooms revenue benefited from robust convention business at our Las Vegas Strip resorts, which allowed us to yield higher room rates across our portfolio of resorts.

In the days immediately following the October 1st incident we experienced a brief increase in non-group room cancellations at our Las Vegas Strip resorts as compared to historic levels.  These cancellations largely related to room reservations booked for the fourth quarter.  In addition, during this period, we experienced a decline in forward non-group reservationsconsolidated subsidiary, as well as accompanying pricing pressure onthrough BetMGM, our unconsolidated affiliate.


Impact of COVID-19 - Update

As of September 30, 2022, all of our domestic properties were open and not subject to operating restrictions; however, travel and business volume were negatively affected in the Las Vegas Strip.  As a resultearly part of the foregoing, we expect our Las Vegas Strip revenues for the fourthfirst quarter of 2017 to decline compared2022 due to the prior year quarter.

Asspread of the omicron variant.


Macau is currently operating under a significant number of MGM Macau’s customers are from“dynamic zero” COVID-19 policy, as is mainland China, we believe operating results at MGMChina. Our properties in Macau are affected by economic conditions in mainland China as well as by certain policy initiatives enacted in mainland China and Macau. We believe a slowdown in China’s economic growth rate as well as the implementation of policies related to gaming promoters, the Chinese government’s restrictions on travel to Macau and restrictions on cross-border currency transactions led to a multi-year decrease in gross gaming revenues for the Macau market which lasted throughwere open during the first half of 2016 and primarily impacted VIP casino2022, however, gaming operations and, to a lesser extent, main floor operations throughout the Macau market. Despite the impact of these events and concerns over the sustainability of economic growth in China, we expect the Macau market to growwere temporarily suspended on a long-term basisJuly 11, 2022 due to an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases in Macau and resumed on July 23, 2022, subject to certain continuing health safeguards. On October 30, 2022, a COVID-19 case was identified as connected to MGM Cotai. All guests and staff were isolated until November 1, 2022 and all gaming, hotel, restaurant, and retail operations were suspended with limited operations expected to resume beginning November 3, 2022. More broadly, electronic applications for individual and group travel visas to Macau resumed on November 1, 2022, however, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau and mainland China remain in place, including COVID-19 testing and certain quarantine requirements, which have significantly impacted visitation to our Macau properties. Although gaming operations in Macau have resumed and certain restrictions on visa applications have been lifted, protective and operational measures have had a negative effect on MGM China’s operations. The extent and timing of further developmentclosures of MGM China’s properties, limitations of operations, or whether further travel restrictions to or from Macau will be implemented is uncertain if there is an increase or continued spread of COVID-19.

Other Developments

In April 2022, we completed the VICI Transaction in a stock-for-stock transaction. In connection with the transaction, VICI OP redeemed the majority of our VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with us retaining an approximate 1% ownership interest in VICI OP. MGP’s Class B share that was previously held by us was cancelled. Accordingly, we no longer hold a controlling interest in MGP and penetrationdeconsolidated MGP upon the closing of the mainland China market and infrastructure improvements expected to facilitate more convenient travel to and within Macau. We believe recent trends reflect stabilization and growth within the Macau market as gross gaming revenue has increased year over year in each month beginning in August 2016 and continuing through September 2017.transactions. In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, gross gaming revenue increased 19% compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of growth on the Cotai Strip. Additionally, according to statistics published by the Statistics and Census Service of the Macau Government, visitor arrivals increased 4% and overnight visitors increased 11% in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Our results of operations are affected by decisions we make related to our capital allocation, our access to capital and our cost of capital. While we continue to be focused on improving our financial position, we are also dedicated to capitalizing on development opportunities. In Macau, we plan to spend approximately $3.4 billion, excluding development fees eliminated in consolidation, capitalized interest and land-related costs, to develop MGM Cotai, a casino resort with capacity for up to 500 gaming tables and up to 1,500 slots, and featuring approximately 1,400 hotel rooms, built on an approximately 18 acre site on the Cotai Strip in Macau. The actual number of gaming tables allocated to MGM Cotai will be determined by the Macau government prior to opening, and such allocation is expected to be less than our 500 gaming table capacity. As a result of damage and delays caused by Typhoon Hato in August 2017, MGM Cotai is expected to open on January 29, 2018.


We were awarded a casino license to build and operate MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts. MGM Springfield will be developed on approximately 14 acres of land in downtown Springfield. MGM’s plans for the resort currently include a casino with approximately 2,550 slots and 120 table games including poker; a 250-room hotel; 100,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space; 44,000 square feet of meeting and event space; and a 3,500 space parking garage; with an expected development and construction cost of approximately $960 million, excluding capitalized interest and land-related costs. Construction of MGM Springfield is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2018.

MGM National Harbor Transaction

In October 2017, MGP acquired MGM National Harbor’s long-term leasehold interest and real property from our subsidiary in exchange for the assumption of $425 million of indebtedness from such subsidiary, the issuance of 9.8 million Operating Partnership units to such subsidiary, and cash of $463 million. The Operating Partnership repaid the debt with proceeds from the September 2017 offering of 13,225,000 of its Class A shares togetherconnection with the proceeds from the offering of its 4.50% senior notes due 2028. Pursuant toVICI Transaction, we entered into an amendment of theamended and restated master lease MGP leased back the real property to our subsidiary and as a result, contracted annual rent payments to MGP increased by $95 million. Consistent with the master lease terms, 90% of this rent is fixed and will contractually grow at 2% per year until 2022, after which such escalator will be based on meeting a revenue to rent ratio as further described in Note 11.

VICI. See Note 13 and Note 119 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding MGPdiscussion of the transaction and its subsidiaries, whichlease, respectively.


In May 2022, we consolidate in our financial statements, and from whichacquired the operations of The Cosmopolitan for cash consideration of $1.625 billion, plus working capital adjustments for a total purchase price of approximately $1.7 billion. Additionally, we entered into a lease certain of our
31


agreement for the real estate assets pursuant to a master lease agreement. All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the master lease, have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reportable Segments

We have two reportable segments: domestic resorts and MGM China.of The Cosmopolitan. See Note 103 and Note 9 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our segments.

Domestic Resorts

Over halfdiscussion of the net revenue fromtransaction and lease, respectively.


In June 2022, the Macau government enacted a new gaming law that provides for material changes to the legal form of gaming concessions in Macau, including discontinuing and prohibiting gaming subconcessions subsequent to their expiration, and also includes material changes to the rights and obligations provided for under the new gaming concessions to be awarded in the upcoming public tender, such as limiting the term of concessions to a maximum of 10 years.

As a result, we reassessed the useful life of the MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession intangible asset and reduced the useful life to align with the contractual term of the subconcession, which expires on December 31, 2022, thereby accelerating the recognition of amortization within our domestic resorts is derived from non-gaming operations including hotel, foodstatements of operations. See Note 1 and beverage, entertainment and other non-gaming amenities. We marketNote 6 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Certain events relating to different customer groups and utilize our extensive convention and meeting facilitiesthe loss, termination, rescission, revocation or modification of MGM Grand Paradise’s ability to maximize hotel occupancy and customer volumes which lead to better labor utilization. Our operating results are highly dependentgame in Macau, where such events have a material adverse effect on demand for our services, and the volume of customers at our resorts, which in turn affect the price we can charge for our hotel rooms and other amenities. In addition, ourfinancial condition, business, properties, or results of operations comparedof MGM China, taken as a whole, may result in a special put option triggering event under MGM China’s senior notes and in an event of default under MGM China’s revolving credit facilities. Management cannot provide any assurance that it will be able to prior periods canobtain a gaming concession in the public tender; however, management submitted its bid on September 14, 2022, and believes that MGM Grand Paradise will be impacted by holiday calendar shifts, significant one-time eventssuccessful in obtaining a gaming concession. For a description of certain risks applicable to MGM Grand Paradise’s subconcession and related matters, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the strengthyear ended December 31, 2021 under the heading “Risk Factors– Risks Related to Our Macau Operations.”

In September 2022, we acquired LeoVegas through a tender offer at a cash price of our convention calendar. Also,SEK 61 per share, for a total fair value of equity interests acquired of approximately $556 million, inclusive of cash settlement of equity awards. See Note 3 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for discussion of this transaction.

Pending Transactions

On December 13, 2021, we generate a significant portionentered into an agreement to sell the operations of our revenue from our domestic resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada, which exposes usThe Mirage to an affiliate of Hard Rock for cash consideration of $1.075 billion, subject to certain risks, such as increased competition from new or expanded Las Vegas resorts,purchase price adjustments. Upon closing, the master lease between us and from the expansion of gamingVICI will be amended to remove The Mirage and reflect a $90 million reduction in annual cash rent. See Note 3 in the United States generally.

accompanying consolidated financial statements for discussion of the transaction.


On June 9, 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell the operations of Gold Strike Tunica to CNE for cash consideration of $450 million, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. Upon closing, the master lease between us and VICI will be amended to remove Gold Strike Tunica and reflect a $40 million reduction in annual cash rent. See Note 3 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for discussion of the transaction.

Key Performance Indicators

Key performance indicators related to gaming and hotel revenue at our domestic resorts are:


Gaming revenue indicators –indicators: table games drop and slots handle (volume indicators); “win” or “hold” percentage, which is not fully controllable by us. Our normal table games hold percentage at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts is in the range of 19%25.0% to 23%35.0% of table games drop for Baccarat and 19.0% to 23.0% for non-Baccarat however, reduced gaming volumes as a result of the pandemic could cause volatility in our normal slots hold percentage is in the range of 8.5% to 9% of slots handle;percentages; and


Hotel revenue indicators (for Las Vegas Strip Resorts) – hotel occupancy (a volume indicator); average daily rate (“ADR,” a price indicator); and revenue per available room (“REVPAR,” a summary measure of hotel results, combining ADR and occupancy rate). Our calculation of ADR, which is the average price of occupied rooms per day, includes the impact of complimentary rooms. Complimentary room rates are determined based on an analysis of retail or “cash” rates for each customer segment and each type of room product to estimate complimentary rates which are consistent with retail rates. Complimentary rates are reviewed at least annually and on an interim basis if there are significant changes in market conditions.standalone selling price. Because the mix of rooms provided on a complimentary basis, particularly to casino customers, includes a disproportionate suite component, the composite ADR including complimentary rooms is slightly higher than the ADR for cash rooms, reflecting the higher retail value of suites.

MGM China

We own an approximate 56% controlling interest in MGM China, which owns MGM Grand Paradise, Rooms that were out of service during the Macau company that owns and operates MGM Macau andnine months ended September 30, 2021 as a result of property closures due to the related gaming subconcession and land concessions, and is in the process of developing


MGM Cotai. We believe our investment in MGM China plays an important role in extending our reach internationally and will foster future growth and profitability.

Revenues at MGM Macau are generated from three primary customer segments in the Macau gaming market: VIP casino gaming operations, main floor gaming operations and slot machine operations. VIP players play mostly in dedicated VIP rooms or designated gaming areas. VIP customers can be further divided into customers sourced by in-house VIP programs and those sourced through gaming promoters. A significant portion of our VIP volume is generated through the use of gaming promoters. Gaming promoters introduce VIP gaming players to MGM Macau, assist these customers with travel arrangements, and extend gaming credit to these players. In exchange for their services, gaming promoters are compensated through payment of revenue-sharing arrangements or rolling chip turnover based commissions. In-house VIP players also typically receive a commission based on the program in which they participate. MGM Macau main floor operations primarily consist of walk-in and day trip visitors. Unlike gaming promoters and in-house VIP players, main floor players do not receive commissions. The profit contributionpandemic were excluded from the main floor segment exceeds the VIP segment due to commission costs paid to gaming promoters. Gaming revenues from the main floor segment have become an increasingly significant portion of total gaming revenues in recent yearsavailable room count when calculating hotel occupancy and we believe this segment represents the most potential for sustainable growth in the future.

VIP gaming at MGM Macau is conducted by the use of special purpose nonnegotiable gaming chips. Gaming promoters purchase these nonnegotiable chips from MGM Macau and in turn they sell these chips to their players. The nonnegotiable chips allow MGM Macau to track the amount of wagering conducted by each gaming promoters’ clients in order to determine VIP gaming play. Gaming promoter commissions are based on either a percentage of actual win plus a monthly complimentary allowance based on a percentage of the rolling chip turnover their customers generate, or a percentage of the rolling chip turnover plus discounted offerings on nongaming amenities. The estimated portion of the gaming promoter payments that represent amounts passed through to VIP customers is recorded as a reduction of casino revenue, and the estimated portion retained by the gaming promoter for its compensation is recorded as casino expense. In-house VIP commissions are based on a percentage of rolling chip turnover and are recorded as a reduction of casino revenue.

Additional key performance indicators used by our domestic resorts,at MGM MacauChina are:

Gaming revenue indicators - MGM China utilizes “turnover,” which is the sum of nonnegotiable chip wagers won by MGM MacauChina calculated as nonnegotiable chips purchased plus nonnegotiable chips exchanged less nonnegotiable chips returned. Turnover provides a basis for measuring VIP casino win percentage. Win for VIP gaming operations at MGM MacauChina is typically in the range of 2.7%2.6% to 3.0%3.3% of turnover.

Consolidated net revenues were $3.4 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $2.7 billion in the prior year quarter, an increase of 26%. The current quarter benefited from the inclusion of the net revenues of The Cosmopolitan and a full quarter of net revenues related to Aria as well as from comparative increases in business volume and travel activity at our domestic resorts, primarily at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts. At MGM China, the current and prior year quarters were significantly impacted by travel and entry restrictions in Macau due to the impact of COVID-19 with the current quarter being negatively affected by property closures and more significantly impacted by restrictions compared to the prior quarter. As a result, net revenues at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts increased 67%, Regional Operations increased 5%, and MGM China decreased 70% compared to the prior year quarter.

Consolidated operating loss was $1.0 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to operating income of $1.9 billion in the prior year quarter. The current quarter reflected an increase in depreciation and amortization expense, an increase in rent expense recorded within general and administrative expense for the Aria, VICI, and The Cosmopolitan leases, which commenced in September 2021, April 2022, and May 2022, respectively, and a decrease in income from unconsolidated affiliates, partially offset by the increase in net revenues, as discussed above. In addition, the prior year quarter benefited from the gain on consolidation of CityCenter, net of $1.6 billion. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.1 billion compared to the prior year quarter, due primarily to the change in useful life of the MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession.

Consolidated net revenues were $9.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 20172022 compared to $6.6 billion in the prior year period, an increase of 44%. The current year period benefited from the inclusion of The Cosmopolitan and 2016:

In June 2021, CityCenter closed the sale of its Harmon land, for which we recorded a $50 million gain within our share of operating income from unconsolidated affiliates.

In September 2021, we completed the acquisition of the 50% ownership interest in CityCenter held by Infinity World and now own 100% of the equity interest in CityCenter. Accordingly, we no longer account for our interest in CityCenter under the equity method of accounting, and we now consolidate CityCenter in our financial statements.

In April 2022, we completed the VICI Transaction pursuant to which the assets and liabilities of MGP were derecognized, which included MGP OP’s investment in VICI BREIT Venture. Accordingly, we no longer have an ownership interest in VICI BREIT Venture.

Gross interest expense was $125 million and $32$200 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, compared toand $458 million and $599 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease from the respective prior year periodperiods is due primarily to a decrease in the average debt outstanding related to ouras a result of the derecognition of MGP OP’s senior notes and a decrease in connection with the weighted average interest ratedeconsolidation of our senior notes. This wasMGP, partially offset by an increase in the average debt outstanding under ourMGM China’s revolving credit facilitiesfacilities.

The decrease in capitalized interest in botheffective rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was unfavorably impacted by losses in Macau that we could not benefit and nine month periods was due primarily toan increase in state deferred tax liabilities resulting from the substantial completionissuance of MGM National Harbor in December 2016,income tax regulations by the state of New Jersey, partially offset by a decrease in Macau deferred tax liabilities resulting from an increase relatedextension of the exemption from the Macau 12% complementary tax to the MGM Cotai and MGM Springfield projects duringend of the firstyear.

The effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was unfavorably impacted by losses in Macau that we could not benefit and the increase in state deferred tax liabilities as a result of 2017.

Reportable segment GAAP measure

“Adjusted Property EBITDAR” is our reportable segment GAAP measure, which we utilize as the primary profit measure for our reportable segments and underlying operating segments. Adjusted Property EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, property transactions, net, gain on the early retirementREIT transactions, net, rent expense related to triple-net operating leases and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, and also excludes gain on consolidation of debtCityCenter, net, gain related to CityCenter’s sale of Harmon land recorded within income from unconsolidated affiliates, corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment, and rent expense related to the $475 million principal amountmaster lease with MGP that eliminated in consolidation. We manage capital allocation, tax planning, stock compensation, and financing decisions at the corporate level. “Adjusted Property EBITDAR margin” is Adjusted Property EBITDAR divided by related segment net revenues.

Non-GAAP measures

“Same-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR” is Adjusted Property EBITDAR further adjusted to exclude the Adjusted Property EBITDAR of acquired operating segments from the date of acquisition through the end of the reporting period. Accordingly, we have excluded the Adjusted Property EBITDAR of The Cosmopolitan for periods subsequent to its acquisition on May 17, 2022 and Aria for periods subsequent to its acquisition on September 27, 2021 in Same-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR for the periods indicated.

Same-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR is a non-GAAP measure and is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because management believes this measure is useful in providing meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the results of our 11.375% senior notes due 2018. Other expensesoperations for operating segments that were consolidated for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were primarily comprisedfull period presented to assist users of the financial statements in reviewing operating performance over time. Same-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR should not be viewed as a $16 million lossmeasure of overall operating performance, considered in isolation, or as an alternative to our reportable segment GAAP measure or net income, or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, because this measure is not presented on the early retirement of debt related to the previously outstanding $743 million 7.625% senior notes due 2017. Other expensesa GAAP basis, and is provided for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were primarily comprised oflimited purposes discussed herein. In addition, Same-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR may not be defined in the $30 million loss incurred on the early retirement of debt discussed above. Other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were primarily comprised of the $16 million loss on retirement of debt discussed above, as wellsame manner by all companies and, as a $49 million loss incurred on the early retirementresult, may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of debt related to the $1.23 billion aggregate principal amountother companies, and such differences may be material. A reconciliation of our previously outstanding 7.5% senior notes due 2016 and 10% senior notes due 2016 and our prior senior credit facility, recorded in the second quarter of 2016.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was a provision of 39.5% comparedreportable segment Adjusted Property EBITDAR GAAP measure to a benefit of 8.7% in the prior year quarter, resulting in income tax provision of $115 million compared to income tax benefit of $45 million in the prior year quarter. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was a provision of 27.3% compared to a benefit of 1.3% in the prior year period, resulting in income tax provision of $252 million in the current year period compared to income tax benefit of $15 million in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was unfavorably impacted by income tax expense of $38 million due to an increase in the valuation allowance against the foreign tax credit deferred tax asset while the prior year quarter was favorably impacted by income tax benefit of $169 million due to a reduction in the valuation allowance against the foreign tax credit deferred tax asset, partially offset by $36 million of income tax expense attributable to the remeasurement of Macau deferred tax liabilities resulting from a change in assumption concerning renewal of the exemption from the Macau complementary tax on gaming profits. The nine months ended September 30, 2016 were also favorably impacted by income tax benefit of $77 million due to a net reduction in the valuation allowance against the foreign tax credit deferred tax asset. The annual effective tax rate calculation for all periodsSame-Store Adjusted Property EBITDAR is impacted by assumptions made regarding projected foreign tax credit usage and valuation allowance. See Note 2 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion of these assumptions.

Non-GAAP Measures

included herein.


“Adjusted EBITDA”EBITDAR” is earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, NV Energy exit expense,property transactions, net, gain on Borgata transaction, goodwill impairment charges, and propertyREIT transactions, net. “Adjusted Property EBITDA” is Adjusted EBITDA before corporate expense and stock compensationnet, gain on consolidation of CityCenter, net, rent expense related to the MGM Resortstriple-net operating leases and MGP stock compensation plans, which are not allocated to each property. MGM China recognizes stock compensation expenseground leases, gain related to its stock compensation plan which is included in the calculationCityCenter’s sale of Adjusted EBITDA for MGM China. “Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDA” is Adjusted Property EBITDAHarmon land recorded within income from unconsolidated affiliates, and income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures.

Adjusted EBITDAR information is a non-GAAP measure that is a valuation metric, should not be used as an operating resorts which were consolidated by the Company for both the entire currentmetric, and prior year periods presented. Adjusted EBITDA information is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because management believes these measures are 1)we believe this measure is widely used measures of operating performance in the gaming industry,by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and 2)investors as a principal basis for the valuation of gaming companies. We present Adjusted Property EBITDA on a “same-store” basis as supplemental information because management believes that providing performance measures on a “same-store” basis is useful for evaluating the period-to-period performance of our domestic casino resorts.

We believe that while items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Property EBITDA and Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDAEBITDAR may be recurring in nature and should not be disregarded in evaluation of our earnings performance, it is useful to exclude such items when analyzing current

40


results and trends compared to other periods because these items can vary significantly depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may not be comparable between the periods being presented.trends. Also, we believe excluded items may not relate specifically to current operating trends or be indicative of future results. For example, preopening and start-up expenses will be significantly different in periods when we are developing and constructing a major expansion project and will depend on where the current period lies within the development cycle, as well as the size and scope of the project(s). Property transactions, net includes normal recurring disposals, gains and losses on sales of assets related to specific assets within our resorts, but also includes gains or losses on sales of an entire operating resort or a group of resorts and impairment charges on entire asset groups or investments in unconsolidated affiliates, which may not be comparable period over period. In addition, management excludes rent expense related to triple-net operating leases and ground leases. Management believes excluding rent expense related to triple-net operating leases and ground leases provides useful information to analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors when valuing the Company, as well as comparing the Company’s results to other gaming companies, without regard to differences in capital allocation, tax planning, financingstructure and stock compensation awards are all managed atleasing arrangements since the corporate level. Therefore, we useoperations of other gaming companies may or may not include triple-net operating leases or ground leases. However, as discussed herein, Adjusted Property EBITDA and Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDA as the primary measure of domestic resorts operating performance.


Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Property EBITDA and Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDAEBITDAR should not be viewed as a measure of overall operating performance, an indicator of our performance, considered in isolation, or construed as alternativesan alternative to operating income or net income, as indicators of our performance; or as alternativesan alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as measuresa measure of liquidity;liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.principles because this measure is not presented on a GAAP basis and excludes certain expenses, including the rent expense related to our triple-net operating leases and ground leases, and is provided for the limited purposes discussed herein. In addition, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Adjusted EBITDAR may calculate Adjusted EBITDAR in a different manner and such differences may be material. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, taxes, real estate triple-net lease and ground lease payments, and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDA,EBITDAR. A reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted Property EBITDA or Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDA. Also, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Property EBITDA or Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDA information may calculate Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Property EBITDA or Same-store Adjusted Property EBITDA in a different manner.

In the event that any subsidiary is no longer a guarantor of our credit facility or any of our future capital markets indebtedness, that subsidiary will be released and relieved of its obligations to guarantee our existing senior notes. The following tables present reconciliationsindentures governing the senior notes further provide that in the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of, or capital stock in a subsidiary guarantor then such subsidiary guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its subsidiary guarantee.

The guarantees provided by the subsidiary guarantors rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated debt of ours or such subsidiary guarantors, junior to any secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt and effectively subordinated to any indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the senior notes. In addition, the obligations of each subsidiary guarantor under its guarantee is limited so as not to constitute a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law, which may eliminate the subsidiary guarantor’s obligations or reduce such obligations to an amount that effectively makes the subsidiary guarantee lack value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


Cash Flows

Our cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2017 were $2.0 billion, which included $336 million at MGM China and $1.1 billion at MGP.


Operating activities. Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in operating income, excluding non-cash charges, but can be affected by changes in working capital, the timing of significant interest payments, and tax payments or refunds, and by distributions from unconsolidated affiliates.refunds. Cash provided by operating activities was $1.5$1.3 billion forin the nine months ended September 30, 20172022 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $1.0 billion$887 million in the prior year period. Operating cash flows increased inThe change from the currentprior year period was due primarily to anthe increase in operating incomeAdjusted Property EBITDAR at our domestic resortsLas Vegas Strip Resorts and Regional Operations discussed within the Results of Operations section above, and a decrease in cash paid for interest, partially offset by a decrease in operating income at MGM China and an increase in income taxes paid.

triple-net lease rent payments.


Investing activities. We made capital expenditures of $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, of which $744 million related to MGM China, excluding development fees and capitalized interest on development fees eliminated in consolidation. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $711 million related to the construction of MGM Cotai and $33 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our domestic resorts and corporate entities of $654 million included $170 million related to MGM National Harbor, $172 million related to the construction of MGM Springfield, and $128 million related to the Monte Carlo rebranding as well as various room remodels, construction of the parking garage at Excalibur, a waterpark at Circus Circus, and restaurant and entertainment venue remodels. Most of the costs capitalized at our domestic resorts during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to construction materials, furniture and fixtures, and external labor costs.

We made capital expenditures of $1.6 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of which $712 million related to MGM China, excluding development fees and capitalized interest on development fees eliminated in consolidation. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $686 million related to the construction of MGM Cotai and $27 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our domestic resorts and corporate entities of $878 million included $557 million related to the construction of MGM National Harbor, $71 million related to the construction of MGM Springfield and $34 million related to the construction of The Park, as well as various room remodels including the tower rooms at Mandalay Bay, construction of additional


exhibit space at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center, and restaurant and entertainment venue remodels. Most of the costs capitalized at our domestic resorts related to construction materials, furniture and fixtures, and external labor costs.

Distributions from unconsolidated affiliates for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 consisted of our $300 million share of a $600 million dividend paid by CityCenter in April 2017. Distributions from unconsolidated affiliates for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily related to a $540 million distribution paid by CityCenter in May 2016.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we received $15 million of proceeds related to the partial disposition of our investment in the Las Vegas Arena Company, LLC, and we paid approximately $594 million and acquired cash of approximately $43 million in connection with the acquisition of Boyd Gaming’s ownership interest in Borgata.

Financing activities. In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we borrowed net debt of $466 million which primarily consisted of a $300 million draw on our senior credit facility, a $334 million draw on the MGM China credit facility, and a $28 million draw on the MGM National Harbor credit facility, as well as MGP’s issuance of $350 million 4.50% senior notes due 2028 in connection with the MGM National Harbor transaction, partially offset by the redemption of our $475 million 11.375% senior notes at a premium, as well as amortization payments on our term loan facilities. We paid $10 million of debt issuance costs related to the issuance of MGP’s senior notes and the amendments to the MGM China and MGP credit facilities.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we repaid net debt of $493 million. In April 2016, in connection with the MGP IPO and related financing transactions we permanently repaid $2.7 billion under our prior senior credit facility and entered into an amended and restated senior credit facility under which we borrowed $250 million, and the Operating Partnership borrowed $2.2 billion under its senior credit facility. In addition, MGM National Harbor borrowed $425 million under its credit facility, MGM China borrowed $206 million under its revolving credit facility, and we permanently repaid $584 million under Borgata’s credit facility. The following senior notes were issued during the nine months of 2016:

$500 million 4.50% senior notes, due 2026 issued by the Operating Partnership; and

$1.05 billion 5.625% senior notes, due 2024 issued by the Operating Partnership.

We redeemed the following senior notes during the nine months of 2016:

$743 million 7.625% senior notes, due 2017 at a premium;

$732.7 million 7.50% senior notes, due 2016 at a premium;

Other Factors Affecting Liquidity

Anticipated uses of cash. We have significant outstanding debt and contractual obligations in addition to planned capital expenditures. At September 30, 2017, we had $13.6 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $541 million of borrowings outstanding under our $1.5 billion senior credit facility, $2.1 billion outstanding under the $2.7 billion MGP senior credit facility, $2.3 billion outstanding under the $3.0 billion MGM China credit facility and $478 million outstanding under the $525 million MGM National Harbor credit facility. In October 2017, the total borrowings outstanding under the MGM National Harbor credit facility were repaid in connection with the MGM National Harbor transaction. We have an estimated $713 million of cash interest payments based on current outstanding debt and applicable interest rates within the next twelve months. We expect to meet our debt maturities and


planned capital expenditure requirements with future anticipated operating Our investing cash flows cash and cash equivalents, and available borrowings under our credit facilities.

In addition, we have made significant investments through September 30, 2017 and we expectcan fluctuate significantly from year to make capital investments as described below during the fourth quarter of 2017.

Capital expenditures related to regular investments in our existing resorts the amounts of which can also vary depending on timing of larger remodel projects related to our public spaces and hotel rooms. Future


Cash provided by investing activities was $1.6 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $1.7 billion in the prior year period. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we received $4.4 billion in net cash proceeds related to the VICI Transaction, which were partially offset by cash paid of $1.6 billion to acquire The Cosmopolitan, net of cash acquired, cash paid of $280 million in connection with the LeoVegas tender offer, net of cash acquired, cash paid of $183 million to acquire shares of LeoVegas in the open market during the tender offer period, payments of $457 million in capital expenditures, could varyas further discussed below, and contributions of $200 million to our unconsolidated affiliate, BetMGM.

Capital Expenditures

We made capital expenditures of $457 million in the progressnine months ended September 30, 2022, of which $23 million related to MGM China. Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate and other entities of $434 million primarily relate to expenditures in information technology and room remodels.

Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate entities of $264 million primarily related to expenditures in information technology and room remodels.

Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities was $2.8 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $2.1 billion in the prior year period. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net repayments of debt of $63 million, as further discussed below, distributed $208 million to noncontrolling interest owners, and we repurchased $2.4 billion of our development effortscommon stock. In comparison, in the prior year period, we had net repayments of debt of $1.5 billion, as further discussed below, distributed $240 million to noncontrolling interest owners, and the structurewe repurchased $1.0 billion of our ownership interestscommon stock, partially offset by net proceeds received of $793 million from the issuance of MGP’s Class A shares.

Borrowings and Repayments of Long-term Debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net repayments of debt of $63 million, which consisted of the repayment of $1.0 billion of aggregate principal amount of our 7.75% senior notes due 2022, partially offset by net draws of $40 million on MGP OP’s revolving credit facility, net borrowings of $884 million on MGM Chinas first revolving credit facility and borrowings of $13 million on MGM China’s second revolving credit facility. MGM China’s borrowings were made to fund an increase in future developments.

The net proceeds from MGM China’s 4.75% senior notes due 2027 issuance were used to partially repay amounts outstanding under the MGM China first revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

Dividends, Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest Owners, and Share Repurchases

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased and retired $2.4 billion of our common stock pursuant to our February 2020 $3.0 billion and March 2022 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plans. In connection with those repurchases, the February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase plan was completed. The remaining availability under the March 2022 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was $827 million as of September 30, 2022.

In March, June, and September 2022 and 2021, we paid dividends of $0.0025 per share, totaling $3 million and $4 million paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

$406 million of distributions paid in 2021, of which we received $185 million and MGP received $221 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders.

Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Anticipated Uses of Cash

We require a certain amount of cash on hand to operate our resorts. In addition to required cash on hand for operations, we utilize corporate cash management procedures to minimize the amount of cash held on hand or in banks. Funds are swept from the accounts at most of our domestic resorts daily into central bank accounts, and excess funds are invested overnight or are used to repay amounts drawn under our revolving credit facility. In addition, from time to time we may use excess funds to repurchase our outstanding debt and equity securities subject to limitations in our revolving credit facility and Delaware law, as applicable. We have significant outstanding debt, interest payments, rent payments, and contractual obligations in addition to planned capital expenditures and commitments.

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 billion, of which MGM China held $875 million. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balance, we have an approximate 56% interest in MGM China.

At September 30, 2022, we had $8.6 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $1.2 billion outstanding under MGM China’s first revolving credit facility, $13 million outstanding under MGM China’s second revolving credit facility, and $39 million outstanding under LeoVegas’s revolving credit facility. No amounts were drawn on our revolving credit facility. We have $1.4 billion of debt maturing in the next twelve months, which we expect to repay with cash on hand.

Due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in February 2022, MGM China further amended each of its first revolving credit facility and its second revolving credit facility to extend the financial covenant waivers through maturity in May 2024.

As of September 30, 2022, our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months are approximately $220 million to $230 million, excluding MGM China, and approximately $445 million to $460 million on a consolidated basis, which includes MGM China.

We are also required, as of September 30, 2022, to make annual cash rent payments of $1.9 billion over the next twelve months under triple-net lease agreements, which triple-net leases are also subject to annual escalators and also require us to pay substantially all costs associated with the lease, including real estate taxes, ground lease payments,
44


insurance, utilities and routine maintenance, in addition to the annual cash rent. See Note 9 for discussion of our leases and lease obligations and Note 1 and Note 3 for pending transactions.

We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of the year of approximately $355 million to $365 million domestically, which is inclusive of the capital expenditures required under the triple-net lease agreements, each of which requires us to spend a specified percentage of net revenues at the respective domestic properties, and approximately $10 million to $20 million at MGM China, including approximately $7 million of show production costs related to the development of entertainment at the MGM Cotai theater. We additionally have planned contributions to BetMGM over the remainder of the year of approximately $25 million.

We also expect to continue to repurchase shares pursuant to our March 2022 $2.0 billion share repurchase plan. Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased approximately 6 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $31.76 per share for an aggregate amount of $183 million. Repurchased shares were retired.

On November 7, 2017,2, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0025 per share. The dividend will be payable on December 15, 2022 to holders of record on December 11, 20179, 2022. Future determinations regarding the declaration and payment of $0.11 per share, totaling $62 million, whichdividends, if any, will be paidat the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on December 15, 2017.

MGP distributions. On September 15, 2017, MGP’s Boardthen-existing conditions, including our results of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.3950 per Class A share totaling $28 million, which was paid on October 13, 2017 to holders of record on September 29, 2017. We concurrently received a $73 million distribution attributable to our ownership of Operating Partnership units, which remained within the consolidated entity.

MGM Resorts International stock repurchase program. In September 2017,operations, financial condition, and other factors that our Board of Directors authorizedmay deem relevant.


As previously discussed, the COVID-19 pandemic caused significant economic disruption both globally and in the United States, and impacted our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows since the onset of the pandemic, which continued in 2022. As a $1.0 billion stock repurchase program, underresult of the widespread distribution of vaccines and the removal of operational restrictions, we have seen economic recovery in some of the market segments in which we may repurchase shares from timeoperate, as shown in our Summary Operating Results. However, some areas continue to timeexperience renewed outbreaks and surges in infection rates, resulting in the open marketimposition of operational restrictions, such as the temporary re-closure of our properties in Macau in July 2022 due to an increase in the number of local COVID-19 cases. As a result, our business segments continue to face many uncertainties and our operations remain vulnerable to reversal of these trends or in privately negotiated agreements. The timing, volume and nature of stock repurchasesother continuing negative effects caused by the pandemic. We cannot predict the degree, or duration, to which our operations will be ataffected by the sole discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws,COVID-19 pandemic, and other factors, and maythe effects could be suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchased shares are retired. The remaining availability under the stock repurchase program was approximately $672 million as of September 30, 2017.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


A complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.2021. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since year end, exceptother than discussed below.

Long-lived assets valuation - MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession

In connection with the enactment of the new Macau gaming law in June 2022 that provides for material changes to the legal form of gaming concessions in Macau, including discontinuing and prohibiting gaming subconcessions subsequent to their expiration and has material changes to the rights and obligation provided for under new gaming concessions to be awarded in the upcoming public tender, we determined that MGM Grand Paradise’s existing gaming subconcession and new gaming concession, if obtained, would be two separate units of account.

Further, as follows:

On January 1, 2017,the material changes in the legal and regulatory environment could have an adverse effect on the value of MGM Grand Paradise’s existing gaming subconcession, we early adopted ASU 2017-04 “Intangibles – Goodwillconcluded that a trigger event had occurred in June 2022 for the MGM China asset group. The gaming subconcession is an entity-wide asset of MGM China as the benefit of the right to conduct gaming provided by the gaming subconcession is shared by each of MGM China’s casino resorts and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Testcash flows generated by the gaming subconcession cannot be separated from the casino resorts in which gaming operations are conducted. We determined that the real estate is the primary asset of the asset group as the real estate component generates a significant portion of the entity’s cash flows through gaming operations conducted at its casino resorts. Accordingly, cash flows were projected over the remaining useful life of the real estate, including cash flows from gaming operations as we believe we will be successful in obtaining a gaming concession in future public tenders. The estimated undiscounted cash flows of the asset group significantly exceeded the carrying value; accordingly, no impairment was indicated.

45



There are several estimates inherent in evaluating the gaming subconcession asset for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”).impairment. The determination of the asset group to be tested for recoverability and the primary asset of the asset group are matters of judgment as it is dependent on corporate structure, the legal and regulatory environment in which the entity operates, and the level of interdependency between assets used in revenue generating activities. The determination of the primary asset directly affects the period over which cash flows are forecasted when performing the recoverability test. In accordance with ASU 2017-04, we performparticular, future cash flow estimates are, by their nature, subjective and actual results may differ materially from our annual goodwillestimates. In addition, the determination of undiscounted cash flows used in the impairment tests (and interim tests if any are highly judgmental and dependent in large part on expectations of land concession renewals and successfully obtaining a gaming concession in connection with future public tenders.

Additionally, we reassessed the useful life of the existing gaming subconcession intangible asset and, given the new gaming law and the resulting changes described above, we determined that the useful life would no longer be based on the initial term of the MGM Cotai land concession that ends in January 2038, and that the new useful life is consistent with the remaining contractual term of the existing gaming subconcession, which ends on December 31, 2022. Accordingly, amortization of the MGM Grand Paradise gaming subconcession will be recognized on a straight-line basis over its reduced useful life, thereby accelerating the recognition of amortization within our statements of operations.

The determination of the unit of account and useful life of the gaming subconcession are based upon facts and circumstances as of a point in time and may change as such conditions develop, evolve, or change. We have determined the unit of account and useful life based upon the final gaming law and its enactment in June 2022 as the enactment reflects the finalization of the changes in legal form and rights and obligations related to be necessary) by comparinggaming concessions in Macau.

Goodwill valuation

We continue to conclude, as of September 30, 2022, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of our reporting units withexceed their carrying value and, accordingly, an interim quantitative impairment charge,review of goodwill was not triggered. However, management makes significant judgments and estimates as part of these analyses. For MGM Macau, if any, will be recognized for the amount by whichproperty continues to face closures, if its operations do not recover from the impacts of COVID-19 in the forecasted time period, if we are not successful in obtaining a gaming concession in connection with future public tenders, or if our obligations under the new gaming concession exceed those forecasted, it could cause the carrying value exceedsof the reporting unit’sunit to exceed its fair value in future periods, potentially resulting in an impairment charge. For Empire City, if we are not successful in obtaining a commercial gaming license, if the costs to obtain the license, develop, and construct a full-scale commercial gaming facility increase from our current expectations, or if we do not realize our forecasted cash flows for the expanded facility, it could cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to exceed its fair value in future periods, potentially resulting in an impairment charge. In addition, the total amountdetermination of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

multiples, control premiums, and the discount rates used in the impairment tests are highly judgmental and dependent in large part on expectations of future market conditions and entity performance.

Market Risk


In addition to the inherent risks associated with our normal operations, we are also exposed to additional market risks. Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our variable rate long-term debt. We attempt to limit our exposure to interest rate risk by managing the mix of our long-term fixed-ratefixed rate borrowings and short-term borrowings under our bank credit facilities. A change in interest rates generally does not have an impact upon our future earnings and cash flow for fixed-rate debt instruments. As fixed-rate debt matures, however, and if additional debt is acquired to fund the debt repayment, future earnings and cash flow may be affected by changes in interest rates. This effect would be realized in the periods subsequent to the periods when the debt matures. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes and do not enter into derivative transactions that would be considered speculative positions.


The Operating Partnership has entered into interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in its senior secured term loan B facility. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and had the following terms as of September 30, 2017:

$500 million notional value, pay weighted average pay fixed rate of 1.76%, receive variable rate resetting monthly to one-month LIBOR, maturing November 30, 2021; and

positions.

$700 million notional value, pay weighted average pay fixed rate of 1.90%, receive variable rate resetting monthly to one-month LIBOR, maturing November 30, 2021.

As of September 30, 2017,2022, variable rate borrowings represented 31%approximately 16% of our total borrowings after giving effect to the $1.2 billion notional amount of Operating Partnership interest rate swaps discussed above. Assuming a 100 basis-point increase in LIBOR (after giving effect to the $1.2 billion notional amount of Operating Partnership interest rate swaps discussed above), our annual interest cost would increase by $19 million based on gross amounts outstanding at September 30, 2017. Assuming a 100 basis-point increase in HIBOR for the MGM China credit facility, our annual interest cost would increase by $23 million based on amounts outstanding at September 30, 2017.borrowings. The following table provides additional information about our gross long-term debt subject to changes in interest rates excluding the effect of the Operating Partnership interest rate swaps discussed above:

In addition to the risk associated with our variable interest rate debt, we are also exposed to risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, mainly related to MGM China and to our operations at MGM Macau and the development of MGM Cotai. While recent fluctuations in exchange rates have not been significant, potential changes in policy by governments or fluctuations in the economies of the United States, China, Macau or Hong Kong could cause variability in these exchange rates. We cannot ensureassure you that the Hong Kong dollar will continue to be pegged to the U.S. dollar or the current peg rate for the Hong Kong dollar will remain at the same level. The possible changes to the peg of the Hong Kong dollar may result in severe fluctuations in the exchange rate thereof. For U.S. dollar denominated debt incurred by MGM China, fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Hong Kong dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar could have adverse effects on our financial position and results of operations. As of September 30, 2017,2022, a 1% increase inweakening of the Hong Kong dollar (the functional currency of MGM China) to the U.S. dollar exchange rate would impact the carrying valueresult in a foreign currency transaction loss of our cash balance by $3$28 million and a 1% decrease in the exchange rate would impact the carrying value of our debt balance by $23 million.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e)13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities


Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”)) were effective as of September 30, 20172022 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and regulations and to provide that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In making our assessment of changes in internal controls over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022, we have excluded The Cosmopolitan from our assessment because it was acquired in the second quarter of 2022. The Cosmopolitan represented approximately 11% of our total assets at September 30, 2022 and approximately 9% and 5% of our total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, there2022, respectively. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHEROTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings


October 1 litigation. The Company and/or certain

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings

See discussion of its subsidiaries have been named as defendantslegal proceedings in a number of lawsuits related to the October 1, 2017 shooting in Las Vegas. The matters involve in large degree the same legalNote 10 – Commitments and factual issues, in each case being filed on behalf of individuals who are seeking damages for emotional distress, physical injury, medical expenses, economic damages and/or wrongful death based on assertions that the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries were negligent. Pending lawsuits were first filed in October 2017 and include two individual actions filed Contingencies in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada and three individual actions and one putative class action filed in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, California. Additional lawsuits related to this incident may be filed in the future.

We are currently unable to reliably predict the developments in, outcome of, and economic costs and other consequences of pending or future litigation related to this matter. We will continue to investigate the factual and legal defenses, and evaluate these matters based on subsequent events, new information and future circumstances. We intend to defend against these lawsuits and ultimately believe we should prevail, but litigation of this type is inherently unpredictable. Although there are significant procedural, factual and legal issues to be resolved that could significantly affect our belief as to the possibility of liability, we currently believe that it is reasonably possible that we could incur liability in connection with certain of these lawsuits. The foregoing determination was made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as codified in ASC 450-20, and is not an admission of any liability on the part of us or any of our affiliates. Given that these cases are in the early stages and in light of the uncertainties surrounding them, we do not currently possess sufficient information to determine a range of reasonably possible liability. In the event we incur any liability, we believe it is unlikely we would incur losses in connection with these claims in excess of our insurance coverage.

Securities and derivative litigation. In 2009 various shareholders filed six lawsuits in Nevada federal and state court against the Company and various of its former and current directors and officers alleging federal securities laws violations and/or related breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with statements allegedly made by the defendants during the period August 2007 through the date of such lawsuit filings in 2009 (the “class period”). In general, the lawsuits asserted the same or similar allegations, including that during the relevant period defendants artificially inflated the Company’s common stock price by knowingly making materially false and misleading statements and omissions to the investing public about the Company’saccompanying consolidated financial statements and condition, operations, CityCenter, and the intrinsic value of the Company’s common stock; that these alleged misstatements and omissions thereby enabled certain Company insiders to derive personal profit from the sale of Company common stock to the public; that defendants caused plaintiffs and other shareholders to purchase Company common stock at artificially inflated prices; and that defendants imprudently implemented a share repurchase program to the detriment of the Company. The lawsuits sought unspecified compensatory damages, restitution and disgorgement of alleged profits and/or attorneys’ fees and costs in amounts to be proven at trial, as well as injunctive relief related to corporate governance.  

The state and federal court derivative actions were dismissed pursuant to defendants’ motions. In November 2009, the U.S. District Court for Nevada consolidated the remaining cases Robert Lowinger v. MGM MIRAGE, et al. (Case No. 2:09-cv-01558-RCL-LRL, filed August 19, 2009) and Khachatur Hovhannisyan v. MGM MIRAGE, et al. (Case No. 2:09-cv-02011-LRH-RJJ, filed October 19, 2009) putative class actions under the caption In re MGM MIRAGE Securities Litigation, Case No. 2:09-cv-01558-GMN-LRL. The consolidated case names the Company and certain former and current directors and officers as defendants and alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. In January 2011, lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, alleging that between August 2, 2007 and March 5, 2009, the Company, its directors and certain of its officers violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.  

In July 2015, the lead plaintiffs and defendants agreed in principle to settle the securities class actions. In August 2015, the lead plaintiffs and defendants entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”). Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the claims against the Company and the named former and current directors and officers will be dismissed with prejudice and released in exchange for a $75 million cash payment by the Company’s directors and officers liability insurers.

On March 1, 2016, the court entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with Prejudice (the “Final Judgment”) of the two cases consolidated under In re MGM MIRAGE Securities Litigation. Of the thousands of putative class members, only one objected to the adequacy of the settlement. The court entered the Final Judgment over his objection, finding that the settlement was fair, reasonable and adequate to the settlement class in all respects, and dismissed the actions and all released claims with prejudice as to all defendants, and expressly provided that neither the settlement nor associated negotiations and proceedings constitute an admission or evidence of liability, fault or omission by the defendants.  

statements.


On March 25, 2016, the sole objector to the adequacy of the settlement filed a Notice of Appeal as to the Final Judgment and related orders entered by the court concerning the plan of settlement distribution and award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the lead plaintiffs’ counsel. On September 15, 2017, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its decision affirming the Final Judgment. Unless the objector files an appeal with the United States Supreme Court, the Ninth Circuit’s decision will become final on December 15, 2017.

Environmental proceedings.In June 2017, the Clark County Department of Air Quality (the “Department”) issued a Notice of Violation to the Company for alleged violations of the Clark County Air Quality Regulations and permit conditions at several of the Company’s properties on the Las Vegas Strip. In September 2017, the Company reached a settlement with the Department and has agreed to pay $150,000 for such violations (without admitting to any liability or error), $30,000 of which is deferred and will be cancelled if we comply with the settlement and certain other defined violations do not occur during the one year period following the date the Department issues a final permit per the application submitted to the Department on August 21, 2017.

Other. We and our subsidiaries are also defendants in various other lawsuits, most of which relate to routine matters incidental to our business. We do not believe that the outcome of such pending litigation, considered in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

A description of certain factors that may affect our future results and risk factors is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021. There have been no material changes to those factors for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, except as discussed below.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business may be materially affected by changes to fiscalpreviously disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


Item 2.        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and tax policies. Congress has recently introduced tax reform legislation that would make significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Such changes include a reduction in the corporate tax rate, moving from a worldwide to a territorial systemUse of taxing multi-national companies and limitations on interest expense and other corporate deductions, among other changes. Although we cannot predict what changes, if any, will actually be enacted, any such changes could have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are required to obtain an occupation permit for our development in Cotai, Macau by January 8, 2018. As a result of the significant damage caused by Typhoon Hato on August 23, 2017, we decided to seek an extension from the Macau government in the event we are unable to timely complete the procedures required to receive our occupation permit by January 8, 2018. The land concession for our approximately 18 acre site on Cotai, Macau was officially gazetted on January 9, 2013, and therefore, if we do not receive the occupation permit from the government for our proposed resort and casino by January 8, 2018, the Macau government has the right to apply certain monetary penalties, or to unilaterally terminate the land concession contract, in each case unless the deadline is extended or the delay is due to a situation of force majeure. As a result of the significant damage caused by Typhoon Hato, MGM China developed a revised schedule for completing repair works and processing governmental inspections that are necessary for obtaining relevant licenses to operate MGM Cotai. MGM China now anticipates opening MGM Cotai on January 29, 2018, although, MGM China still anticipates that it will be able to receive the occupation permit for the development prior to the January 8, 2018 deadline. MGM China has discussed this revised timeline with the Macau government and has applied for an extension to the January 8 deadline to receive the occupation permit and for the delay to be treated as a situation of force majeure. While we believe the government of Macau would accept our position with respect to any such potential force majeure claim, there can be no assurance that the government would accept our position,that we will be able to otherwise extend the January 8 deadline, or that we will be able to complete the necessary repair work and governmental inspection processes by the times required to timely receive the occupation permit. A loss of the land concession could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The agreements governing our senior secured credit facility and other senior indebtedness contain restrictions and limitations that could significantly affect our ability to operate our business, as well as significantly affect our liquidity, and therefore could adversely affect our results of operations. Covenants governing our senior secured credit facility and certain of our debt securities restrict, among other things, our ability to:

pay dividends or distributions, repurchase or issue equity, prepay certain debt or make certain investments;

incur additional debt;

incur liens on assets;

sell assets or consolidate with another company or sell all or substantially all of our assets;

enter into transactions with affiliates;

Proceeds


allow certain subsidiaries to transfer assets; and

enter into sale and lease-back transactions.

Our ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by events beyond our control. The breach of any such covenants or obligations not otherwise waived or cured could result in a default under the applicable debt obligations and could trigger acceleration of those obligations, which in turn could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements governing our long-term indebtedness. In addition, our senior secured credit facility requires us to satisfy certain financial covenants, including a maximum total net leverage ratio, a maximum first lien net leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. Any default under our senior secured credit facility or the indentures governing our other debt could adversely affect our growth, our financial condition, our results of operations and our ability to make payments on our debt.

In addition, MGM Grand Paradise and MGM China are co-borrowers under an amended and restated credit facility and the Operating Partnership is a borrower under its senior secured credit facility, all of which contain covenants that restrict the respective borrower’s ability to engage in certain transactions. In particular, these credit agreements require MGM China and the Operating Partnership to satisfy certain financial covenants and impose certain operating and financial restrictions on them and their respective subsidiaries (including, with respect to MGM China, MGM Grand Paradise), respectively. These restrictions include, among other things, limitations on their ability to pay dividends or distributions to us, incur additional debt, make investments or engage in other businesses, merge or consolidate with other companies, or transfer or sell assets. MGM China is in the process of amending its credit facility to, among other things, increase the maximum leverage ratio covenant for fiscal year 2018, which MGM China believes will be necessary due to the delay in the MGM Cotai opening date as a result of the damage and delays caused to MGM Cotai in August 2017 by Typhoon Hato. If MGM China is unable to obtain an amendment or waiver to the maximum leverage ratio, MGM China could be at risk of default under its credit agreement and would be unable to make any draws under that facility. Moreover, an acceleration of the debt under the MGM China facility by the lenders could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations if MGM China is unable to refinance the defaulted facility, all of which would likely have a negative effect on MGM China’s growth.
