Organization. MGM Resorts International (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that acts largely as a holding company and, through subsidiaries, owns and operates casino resorts.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company owns and operates the following integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada: Bellagio, MGM Grand Las Vegas, The Mirage, Mandalay Bay, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM and Excalibur. Operations at MGM Grand Las Vegas include management of The Signature at MGM Grand Las Vegas. The Company owns, along with local investors, and operates MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan, MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland, and MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Company also owns and operates Borgata located on Renaissance Pointe in the Marina area of Atlantic City, New Jersey, Empire City in Yonkers, New York, MGM Northfield Park in Northfield Park, Ohio, and the following resorts in Mississippi: Beau Rivage in Biloxi and Gold Strike in Tunica. Additionally, the Company owns and operates The Park, a dining and entertainment district located between New York-New York and Park MGM, Shadow Creek, an exclusive world-class golf course located approximately ten miles north of its Las Vegas Strip Resorts, and Fallen Oak golf course in Saucier, Mississippi.

MGM Growth Properties LLC (“MGP”), a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, is organized as an umbrella partnership REIT (commonly referred to as an UPREIT) structure in which substantially all of its assets are owned by and substantially all of its businesses are conducted through MGM Growth Properties Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”). MGP has two classes of authorized and outstanding voting common shares (collectively, the “shares”): Class A shares and a single Class B share. The Company owns MGP’s Class B share, which does not provide its holder any rights to profits or losses or any rights to receive distributions from operations of MGP or upon liquidation or winding up of MGP. MGP’s Class A shareholders are entitled to one vote per share, while the Company, as the owner of the Class B share, is entitled to an amount of votes representing a majority of the total voting power of MGP’s shares so long as the Company and its controlled affiliates’ (excluding MGP) aggregate beneficial ownership of the combined economic interests in MGP and the Operating Partnership does not fall below 30%. The Company and MGP each hold Operating Partnership units representing limited partner interests in the Operating Partnership. The general partner of the Operating Partnership is a wholly owned subsidiary of MGP. The Operating Partnership units held by the Company are exchangeable into Class A shares of MGP on a one-to-one basis, or cash at the Fair Market Value of a Class A share (as defined in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement). The determination of settlement method is at the option of MGP’s independent conflicts committee. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company owned ~~42.1%~~41.6% of the Operating Partnership units, and MGP held the remaining ~~57.9%~~58.4% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership.

Pursuant to a master lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, the Company leases the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor, and MGM Northfield Park. Pursuant to a lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a venture that is 5% owned by such subsidiary and 95% owned by a subsidiary of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“BREIT”, and such venture, the “Bellagio BREIT Venture”), the Company leases the real estate assets of Bellagio. Additionally, pursuant to a lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a venture that is 50.1% owned by a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership and 49.9% by a subsidiary of BREIT (such venture, the “MGP BREIT Venture”), the Company leases the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion of the leases.

On May 11, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from the Company and MGM Springfield will be added to the MGP master lease between the Company and MGP through which MGP will lease the real property back to a subsidiary of the Company. Refer to Note 11 for additional information.

On August 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with VICI Properties, Inc. (“VICI”) and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction (such transaction, the “VICI Transaction”). Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and the Company will receive 1.366 units of the new VICI operating partnership (“VICI OP”) in exchange for each Operating Partnership 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. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in the VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that is held by the Company will be cancelled.

As part of the transaction, the Company will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The new master lease will have an initial term of 25 years, with 3 ten-year renewals, and initial annual rent of $860 million, escalating annually at a rate of 2.0% per annum for the first ten years and thereafter equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year subject to a cap of 3%. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders.

The Company has an approximate 56% controlling interest in MGM China Holdings Limited (together with its subsidiaries, “MGM China”), which owns MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. (“MGM Grand Paradise”). MGM Grand Paradise owns and operates the MGM Macau and MGM Cotai, 2 integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Macau, as well as the related gaming subconcession and land concessions.

The Company owns 50% of and manages CityCenter Holdings, LLC (“CityCenter”), located between Bellagio and Park MGM. The other 50% of CityCenter is owned by Infinity World Development Corp (“Infinity World”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dubai World, a Dubai, United Arab Emirates government decree entity. CityCenter consists of Aria, an integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resort; and Vdara, a luxury condominium-hotel. ~~See~~Refer to Note 3 for additional information ~~related~~on this investment in unconsolidated affiliate.

On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to ~~CityCenter.~~which the Company will purchase the 50% ownership interest in CityCenter held by Infinity World for cash consideration of $2.125 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions. Upon close of the transaction, the Company will own 100% of CityCenter and, accordingly, will consolidate CityCenter in its financial statements.

On June 30, 2021, the Company also entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fund managed by Blackstone Group Inc. will acquire the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara for cash consideration of $3.89 billion and lease the properties back to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. The Aria and Vdara lease will have an initial term of 30 years with 3 subsequent ten-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The initial term of the lease provides for an initial annual cash rent of $215 million with a fixed 2% escalator for the first fifteen years, and thereafter, an escalator equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year, subject to a cap of 3%. Additionally, the lease will require the Company to spend a specified percentage of net revenues over a rolling five-year period at the property on capital expenditures and for the Company to comply with certain financial covenants, which, if not met, would require the Company to maintain cash security or a letter of credit in favor of the landlord in an amount equal to rent for the succeeding one-year period. The Company will provide a guarantee of the tenant’s obligations under the lease. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions, which include the requisite closing of the equity interest purchase of CityCenter, discussed above.

The Company owns 50% of BetMGM LLC (“BetMGM”), which provides online sports betting and iGaming in certain jurisdictions in the United States. The other 50% of BetMGM is owned by Entain plc.

The Company has 3 reportable segments: Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and MGM China. See Note 10 for additional information about the Company’s segments.

Financial Impact of COVID-19. The spread of the novel 2019 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and ~~we expect~~the Company expects will continue to have, a significant impact on ~~our~~the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in 2021 and potentially thereafter. In March 2020, all of the Company’s domestic properties were temporarily closed pursuant to state and local government restrictions imposed as a result of COVID-19. Throughout the second and third quarters of 2020, all of the Company’s properties that were temporarily closed re-opened to the public, but ~~continue~~continued to operate without certain amenities and subject to certain occupancy limitations, with restrictions varying by jurisdiction and with further temporary re-closures and re-openings occurring for the Company’s properties or portions thereof into the first quarter of 2021. Upon re-opening of the properties, the Company implemented certain measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including limitations on the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and on the number of seats at each table game, as well as slot machine spacing, temperature checks, mask protection, limitations on restaurant capacity, entertainment events and conventions as well as other measures to enforce social distancing. In

Beginning in the latter part of the first quarter of 2021 ~~certain~~and continuing into the second quarter of 2021, the Company’s domestic jurisdictions ~~have loosened~~eased and removed prior operating restrictions, including ~~increased~~ capacity ~~limits applicable to restaurants~~ and ~~conventions~~occupancy limits as well as ~~allowing~~social distancing policies. However, certain operations and amenities are limited ~~entertainment events~~or constrained due to ~~resume, subject to continued~~available staffing and/or mid-week visitation levels, and in July 2021, certain jurisdictions reinstated mask protection guidelines as a result of the emergence and spread of certain COVID-19 ~~safety measures.~~variants.

Although ~~we are continuing to see reduced operating restrictions at our~~all of the Company’s properties ~~such~~have re-opened, in light of the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, including the emergence and spread of COVID-19 variants, the properties may be subject to temporary, complete or partial shutdowns in the future. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether ~~the~~ jurisdictions, ~~in which its properties are located,~~ states or the federal ~~governments~~government will adopt similar or more restrictive measures in the future than in the past, including stay-at-home ~~orders. While business volumes have improved since operating restrictions loosened in~~orders or the ~~first quarter~~temporary closure of ~~2021, our~~all or a portion of the Company’s properties, ~~continued~~and are unable to ~~generate revenues that are significantly lower than historical results.~~predict the length of time it will take for the properties to fully return to normal operations.

The Company has seen and continues to expect to see weakened demand at its properties relative to pre-pandemic business volumes as a result of continued domestic and international travel restrictions or warnings, restrictions on amenity use, such as gaming, restaurant and pool capacity limitations, consumer fears and reduced consumer discretionary spending, general economic uncertainty, and increased rates of unemployment. In light of the foregoing, the Company is unable to determine when its properties will return to pre-pandemic demand or pricing.

In Macau, following a temporary closure of ~~our~~the Company’s properties on February 5, 2020, operations resumed on February 20, 2020, subject to certain health safeguards, such as limiting ~~the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and~~ the number of seats available at each table game, slot machine spacing, reduced operating hours at a number of restaurants and bars, temperature checks, and mask protection. Although the issuance of tourist visas (including the individual visit scheme) for residents of Zhuhai, Guangdong Province and all other provinces in mainland China to travel to Macau resumed on August 12, 2020, August 26, 2020 and September 23, 2020, respectively, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau, Hong Kong and mainland China remain in place (including the temporary suspension of ferry services from Hong Kong to Macau, a negative nucleic acid test result, and mandatory quarantine requirements for visitors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and bans on entry or enhanced quarantine requirements on other visitors into Macau), which have significantly impacted visitation to the Company’s Macau properties. On August 3, 2021, four new COVID-19 cases were reported in Macau, the first of such cases since the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. As a result, the Macau government declared a state of immediate prevention and cancelled or suspended certain events and closed certain entertainment and leisure facilities throughout Macau, however gaming and hotel operations have remained open. On August 4, 2021, mass mandatory nucleic acid testing was imposed in Macau and the testing process is expected to take three days to complete. It is uncertain whether further closures, including the closure of the Company’s properties, or travel restrictions to Macau will be implemented based on the outcome of the test results.

Basis of 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 2020 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

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. 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 variable interest entity (“VIE”). A VIE is an 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. 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 MGP is a VIE because the Class A equity investors 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 the primary beneficiary of MGP and consolidates MGP 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 the right to receive benefits from MGP that could potentially be significant to MGP. The Company has recorded MGP’s ownership interest in the Operating Partnership as noncontrolling interest in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, on a consolidated basis MGP had total assets of $10.1 billion, primarily related to its real estate investments, and total liabilities of $5.0 billion, primarily related to its indebtedness.

Management has determined that Bellagio BREIT Venture is a VIE because the equity holders 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 Bellagio BREIT Venture and, accordingly, does not consolidate the venture, because the Company does not have power to direct the activities that could potentially be significant to the venture; BREIT, as the managing member, has such power. The Company has recorded its 5% ownership interest in Bellagio BREIT Venture as an investment in unconsolidated affiliates in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, for which such amount was ~~$60~~$59 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Bellagio BREIT Venture is equal to the carrying value of its investment, 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, as further discussed in Note 7.

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 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 decisions of the entity, the Company accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as the Company’s investments in CityCenter, MGP BREIT Venture, and BetMGM, which do not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entities are 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 entities, as defined in ASC 810.

For equity interests in entities in which the Company does not have significant influence, the Company records its equity investment under ASC 321 and reflects such investments within “Other long-term assets, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a gain of $86 million within “Other, net” on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations related primarily to the change in measurement of an equity instrument that previously qualified for the measurement alternative under ASC 321, which was discontinued upon the equity interest having a readily determinable fair value as a result of becoming exchange traded. The fair value of such equity investment was $124 million as of June 30, 2021.

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

Fair value 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 in 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:

Revenue recognition. The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers consists of casino wagers transactions, hotel room sales, food and beverage transactions, entertainment shows, and retail transactions.

For casino wager transactions that include incentives earned by customers under the Company’s loyalty programs, the Company allocates a portion of net win based upon the standalone selling price of such incentive (less estimated breakage). This allocation is deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer redeems the incentive. When redeemed, revenue is recognized in the department that provides the goods or service. Redemption of loyalty incentives at third party outlets are deducted from the loyalty liability and amounts owed are paid to the third party, with any discount received recorded as other revenue. After allocating revenue to other goods and services provided as part of casino wager transactions, the Company records the residual amount to casino revenue.

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, as discussed above, 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 Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

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

	Outstanding Chip Liability						Loyalty Program					Customer Advances and Other					Outstanding Chip Liability					Loyalty Program					Customer Advances and Other

The Company's FTCs are attributable to the Macau Special Gaming Tax, which is 35% of gross gaming revenue in Macau. Significant judgment is required in assessing the need for a valuation allowance and future changes to assumptions used in this assessment could result in material changes in the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact on the provision for income taxes in the period including such change.

MGM Grand ~~Paradise’s application for~~Paradise accepted the terms of an extension of its annual fee arrangement ~~with Macau covering~~on July 26, 2021. The extension covers the distributions of ~~gaming~~ profits ~~to be~~ earned for the period of April 1, 2020 through June 26, ~~2022 is still pending. Until~~2022.

The Company will accrue income tax expense for amounts due tounder the ~~impact of COVID-19.~~extension beginning in the period the extension is executed.

During the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company reached a settlement with the IRS Appeals Office on the examination of its 2014 U.S. consolidated federal income tax return. NaN cash tax payments were due as a result of the settlement. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, one of the Company's subsidiaries, Marina District Development Company, LLC, closed an examination in the state of New Jersey for tax years 2015 through 2018 with no change in tax due. As a result of the federal and New Jersey audit ~~closure,~~closures, the Company reversed ~~$10~~$20 million and $30 million of unrecognized tax benefits during the ~~quarter. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that it will reverse an additional $20 million of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve~~three and six months ~~on the expectation during such period of a settlement with IRS Appeals for issues outstanding on the Company's 2014 U.S. consolidated federal income tax return.~~ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

As further described in Note 1, pursuant to the master lease with MGP, the Company leases the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor and MGM Northfield Park from MGP.

The annual rent payments under the MGP master lease for the sixth lease year, which commenced on April 1, 2021, increased to $843 million from $828 million, as a result of the fifth 2.0% fixed annual rent escalator that went into effect on April 1, 2021.

In March 2021, the Company delivered a notice of redemption covering approximately 37 million Operating Partnership units that it held which was satisfied with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. Refer to Note 9 for further discussion of such redemption.

In May 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from the Company for $400 million of cash consideration. MGM Springfield will be added to the master lease between the Company and MGP. Following the closing of the transaction, the annual rent payment to MGP will increase by $30 million, $27 million of which will be fixed and contractually grow at 2% per year with escalators subject to the tenant meeting an adjusted net revenue to rent ratio. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, upon receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Final regulatory approvals, which are not necessary for the transaction to close, are expected to be received within nine to twelve months following the interim regulatory approval. Until final regulatory approvals are obtained, the parties will be subject to a trust agreement, which will provide for the property to go into a trust (or, at the Company’s option, be returned to the Company) during the interim period in the event that the regulator finds reasonable cause to believe that MGP may not be found suitable. The property will then remain in trust until a final determination regarding MGP’s suitability is made.

All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the MGP master lease, have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidation of MGP. The public ownership of MGP’s Class A shares is recognized as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

As further described in Note 1, in August 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with VICI and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction. Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each Class A share of MGP and the Company will receive VICI OP units in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit that the Company holds. 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. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that is held by the Company will be cancelled. As part of the transaction, the Company will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders.

The Company has a 5% ownership interest in the Bellagio BREIT Venture, which owns the real estate assets of Bellagio and leases such assets to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. Refer to Note 6 for further information related to the Bellagio lease.

MGP has a 50.1% ownership interest in the MGP BREIT Venture, which owns the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas and leases such assets to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. Refer to Note 6 for further information related to the Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas lease.

Our primary business is the ownership and operation of casino resorts which offer gaming, hotel, convention, dining, entertainment, retail and other resort amenities. We own or invest in 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, repay debt 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.

The spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in 2021 and potentially thereafter. In March 2020, all of our domestic properties were temporarily closed pursuant to state and local government restrictions imposed as a result of COVID-19. Throughout the second and third quarters of 2020 all of our properties that were temporarily closed re-opened to the public, but continue to operate without certain amenities and subject to certain occupancy limitations, with restrictions varying by jurisdiction and with further temporary re-closures and re-openings occurring for our properties or portions thereof into the first quarter of 2021. Upon re-opening of the properties, we implemented certain measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including limitations on the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and on the number of seats at each table game, as well as slot machine spacing, temperature checks, mask protection, limitations on restaurant capacity, entertainment events and conventions as well as other measures to enforce social distancing. In

In light of the foregoing, we are unable to ~~determine when~~predict the length of time it will take for our properties ~~will~~to fully return to ~~pre-pandemic demand or pricing.~~normal operations.

In Macau, following a temporary closure of our properties on February 5, 2020, operations resumed on February 20, 2020, subject to certain health safeguards, such as limiting ~~the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and~~ the number of seats available at each table game, slot machine spacing, reduced operating hours at a number of restaurants and bars, temperature checks, and mask protection. Although the issuance of tourist visas (including the individual visit scheme “IVS”) for residents of Zhuhai, Guangdong Province and all other provinces in mainland China to travel to Macau resumed on August 12, 2020, August 26, 2020 and September 23, 2020, respectively, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau, Hong Kong and mainland China remain in place (including the temporary suspension of ferry services from Hong Kong to Macau, a negative nucleic acid test result, and mandatory quarantine requirements for visitors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and bans on entry or enhanced quarantine requirements on other visitors into Macau), which have significantly impacted visitation to our Macau properties.

On August 3, 2021, four new COVID-19 cases were reported in Macau, the first of such cases since the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. As a result, the Macau government declared a state of immediate prevention and cancelled or suspended certain events and closed certain entertainment and leisure facilities throughout Macau, however gaming and hotel operations have remained open. On August 4, 2021, mass mandatory nucleic acid testing was imposed in Macau and the testing process is expected to take three days to complete. It is uncertain whether further closures, including the closure of our properties, or travel restrictions to Macau will be implemented based on the outcome of the test results.

In March 2021, we delivered a notice of redemption to MGP covering approximately 37 million Operating Partnership units that we held which was satisfied with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. See Note 9 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction, which eliminates in consolidation.

In May 2021, we entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from us for $400 million of cash consideration. MGM Springfield will be added to the master lease between us and MGP. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, upon receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. See Note 1 and Note 11 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction. All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the master lease with MGP, eliminate in consolidation.

In June 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the 50% interest in CityCenter held by Infinity World Development Corp ("Infinity World") for cash consideration of $2.125 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions. See Note 1 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction.

In June 2021, we also entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fund managed by Blackstone Group Inc. will acquire the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara from us for cash consideration of $3.89 billion and lease the properties back to us pursuant to a lease agreement. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions, which include the requisite closing of the equity interest purchase of CityCenter, discussed above. See Note 1 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction.

In August 2021, we entered into an agreement with VICI and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP. Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and we will receive 1.366 units of the new VICI operating partnership (“VICI OP”) in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit we hold. 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. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of our VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with us retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in the VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that we hold will be cancelled.

As part of the transaction, we will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The new master lease will have an initial term of 25 years, with three ten-year renewals, and initial annual rent of $860 million, escalating annually at a rate of 2.0% per annum for the first ten years and thereafter equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year subject to a cap of 3%. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors — The VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction each remains subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and any anticipated benefits from such transactions may take longer to realize than expected or may not be realized at all.”

The temporary closure of our properties due to COVID-19 in the ~~current and~~ comparative ~~period~~periods impacted our financial results. Dates of temporary closure are shown below:

While the prior year was negatively affected by temporary property closures for a portion of the year due to the pandemic, the current year period benefited from the easing of operational and capacity restrictions and an increase in travel primarily within the current year quarter. Additionally, at MGM China, the prior year period was negatively affected by both property closures in the first quarter and more significantly impacted by travel and entry restrictions in Macau than in the current year period. As a result, net revenues at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts increased 21%, Regional Operations increased 92%, and MGM China increased 99%.

Consolidated operating income was $17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $216 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 92%, primarily due to the prior year period benefiting from a $1.5 billion gain related to the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay real estate transaction ~~the impact of COVID-19 which caused~~in February 2020, partially offset by a ~~decrease~~current year period increase in net revenues discussed above, partially offset by a $28 million decrease in general and administrative expense, a $28 million decrease in depreciation and amortization, a $29 million decrease in property transactions, net, and a $66 million decrease inabove.

In June, 2021, CityCenter closed the sale of its Harmon land for $80 million on which it recorded a $30 million gain. We recorded a $50 million gain, which included $15 million of our 50% share of the gain recorded by CityCenter and $35 million representing the reversal of certain basis differences.

Our share of CityCenter’s operating ~~loss,~~income, including certain basis difference adjustments, was $90 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and CityCenter’s operating loss was ~~$2.8~~$39 million ~~compared~~for the three months ended June 30, 2020 due primarily to ~~our share~~the gain related to the sale of ~~operating income of $21 million~~its Harmon land in the current quarter, discussed above, and the temporary property closures in the prior year ~~quarter,~~quarter.

Our share of CityCenter’s operating income, including certain basis difference adjustments, was $87 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and CityCenter’s operating loss was $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, due primarily ~~driven by~~to the ~~decrease in CityCenter’s casino and non-casino revenues as a result of the operational restrictions and reduced business volume and travel~~gain related to on the ~~pandemic.~~sale of its Harmon land in the current year period, discussed above, and the temporary property closures in the prior year period.

Gross interest expense was ~~$196~~$203 million and ~~$158~~$157 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $399 million and $315 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in gross interest expense when compared to the respective prior year ~~quarter~~periods is due primarily to the increase in average debt outstanding related to ~~our~~ senior notes due to the issuances by us, the Operating Partnership, and MGM China in 2020 and 2021, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate ~~related to our~~of the senior notes. See Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional discussion on long-term debt and see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional discussion on issuances and repayments of long-term debt and other sources and uses of cash.

Other income, net was ~~$32~~$87 million and $8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The current quarter included an $86 million gain on investment which is related primarily to the change in measurement of an equity instrument that previously qualified for the measurement alternative under ASC 321, which was discontinued upon the equity interest having a readily determinable fair value as a result of becoming exchange traded, a $6 million loss on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, $5 million of foreign currency remeasurement gains primarily related to MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes, and $6 million of interest income.

Other income, net was $120 million for the six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 compared to other expense, net of ~~$124~~$116 million in the prior year ~~quarter.~~period. The current ~~quarter~~year period included ~~a $35~~an $86 million gain on investment, discussed above, a $29 million gain on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, ~~a $6~~$1 million of foreign currency remeasurement ~~loss on~~losses primarily related to MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes, and $5$11 million of interest income. The prior year ~~quarter~~period included a $109 million loss incurred on the early retirement of debt related to our senior notes and the termination of our revolving facility, as well as an $18 million loss incurred on the early retirement of debt related to the Operating Partnership’s repayment of its term loan A facility and its term loan B facility and a $11 million loss on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, partially offset by an $8 million remeasurement gain on MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior ~~notes.~~notes, and $21 million of interest income. Refer to Note 4 for further discussion of our long-term debt.

Our effective tax rate was a ~~benefit~~provision of ~~22.0%~~27.8% on ~~loss~~income before income taxes for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, compared to a ~~provision~~benefit of ~~28.0%~~22.4% on ~~income~~loss before income taxes in the prior year quarter. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was favorably impacted by a release of tax reserves in conjunction with the closure of the most recent New Jersey state audit for Marina District Development Company. Thediffering effective tax ~~rate~~rates resulted primarily from changes in the mix of U.S. and foreign income and losses and the increase in the foreign tax credit valuation allowance recorded in the prior year quarter that reduced the benefit recorded on loss before income taxes in such quarter.

Our effective tax rate was ~~driven primarily~~a benefit of 19.6% on loss before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a benefit of 2.9% on loss before income taxes in the prior year period. The effective rate for the prior year period was unfavorably impacted by tax expense recorded on the MGP BREIT Venture transaction and ~~the unfavorable impact of~~ adjustments to valuation allowances for Macau deferred tax assets and foreign tax credits.

The annual effective tax rate calculation for all periods is impacted by assumptions made regarding projected foreign tax credit usage and valuation allowance. See Note 5 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

“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, gain on REIT transactions, net, restructuring costs (which represents costs related to severance, accelerated stock compensation expense, and consulting fees directly related to the operating model component of the MGM 2020 Plan), rent expense associated with triple-net operating and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, property transactions, net, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment, and rent expense related to the master lease with MGP that eliminates 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.

“Adjusted EBITDAR” is earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, gain on REIT transactions, net, CEO transition expense, October 1 litigation settlement, restructuring costs (which represents costs related to severance, accelerated stock compensation expense, and consulting fees directly related to the operating model component of the MGM 2020 Plan), gain related to CityCenter’s sale of Harmon land recorded within income from unconsolidated affiliates, rent expense associated with triple-net operating and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, and property transactions, net.

Adjusted EBITDAR information is a valuation metric, should not be used as an operating metric, and is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because we believe this measure is widely used by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors as a principal basis for the valuation of gaming companies. We believe that while items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAR 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 results and trends. Also, we believe excluded items may not relate specifically to current 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. However, as discussed herein, Adjusted EBITDAR should not be viewed as a measure of overall operating performance, considered in isolation, or as an alternative to net income, because this measure is not presented on a GAAP basis and exclude certain expenses, including the rent expense associated with our triple-net operating and ground leases, and are provided for the limited purposes discussed herein.

Adjusted EBITDAR should not be construed as an alternative to operating income or net income, as an indicator of our performance; or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of liquidity; or as any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. 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 EBITDAR. Also, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Adjusted EBITDAR information may calculate Adjusted EBITDAR in a different manner and such differences may be material.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, all of our principal debt arrangements are guaranteed by each of our wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facility. Our principal debt arrangements are not guaranteed by MGP, the Operating Partnership, MGM Grand Detroit, MGM National Harbor, Blue Tarp reDevelopment, LLC (the entity that owns and operates MGM Springfield), and each of their respective subsidiaries. Our foreign subsidiaries, including MGM China and its subsidiaries, are also not guarantors of our principal debt arrangements. 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 indentures 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.

The summarized financial information of us and our guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, is presented below.

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, tax payments or refunds, and distributions from unconsolidated affiliates. Cash ~~used in~~provided by operating activities was ~~$88~~$368 million in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 compared to ~~$423 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in~~ cash used in operating activities ~~over~~of $1.1 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change from the prior year period iswas due primarily to the increase in revenues discussed within the results of operations section above and additionally due to the prior year period being negatively affected by a change in working capital related to gaming and non-gaming deposits, gaming taxes and other gaming liabilities, and payroll related liabilities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as a current year quarter decrease in cash paid for interest. Operating cash flows at our properties decreased compared to the prior year period as a result of the decrease at our Las Vegas Strip resorts, as discussed above.pandemic.

Investing activities. Our investing cash flows can fluctuate significantly from year to year depending on our decisions with respect to strategic capital investments in new or existing resorts, business acquisitions or dispositions, and the timing of maintenance capital expenditures to maintain the quality of our resorts. Capital expenditures related to regular investments in our existing resorts can also vary depending on timing of larger remodel projects related to our public spaces and hotel rooms.

Cash used in investing activities was ~~$155~~$274 million in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 compared to cash provided by investing activities of ~~$2.4~~$2.3 billion in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

In comparison, in the prior year ~~quarter~~ we received $2.5 billion in net cash proceeds from the sale of the real estate of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas, which was partially offset by ~~$73~~$140 million in capital expenditures and a ~~$20~~$30 million investment made in BetMGM. In the prior year period, distributions from unconsolidated affiliates included $51 million related to our ~~unconsolidated affiliate BetMGM.~~share of a distribution paid by CityCenter.

Dividends, Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest Owners and Share Repurchases

During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we repurchased and retired ~~$119~~$340 million of our common stock pursuant to our May 2018 $2.0 billion and February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase plans. As a result of those repurchases, we completed our May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program, and the remaining availability under the February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase program was ~~$2.9~~$2.7 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we repurchased and retired $354 million of our common stock pursuant to our May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan.

In March 2021 and June 2021, we paid dividends of $0.0025 per share, totaling $2 million, paid during the six months ended June 30, 2021. In March 2020, we paid a dividend of $0.15 per share, and in June 2020 we paid a dividend of $0.0025 per share, totaling $1$75 million paid during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2021, compared to a dividend of $0.15 per share, totaling $74 million, paid during the three months ended March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

The Operating Partnership paid the following distributions to its partnership unit holders during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020:

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.

As previously discussed, the spread of COVID-19 and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. During this time, we have remained committed to managing our expenses to strengthen our liquidity position. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$6.2~~$5.6 billion, of which MGM China held ~~$1.1 billion~~$331 million and the Operating Partnership held ~~$143~~$298 million. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balance, we currently have significant real estate assets and other holdings: we own MGM Springfield, (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in May 2021 to sell the real estate assets of MGM Springfield to MGP), a 50% interest in CityCenter in Las Vegas (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in June 2021 to acquire the 50% equity interest in CityCenter as well as the agreement to sell and lease back the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara), a 41.6% economic interest in MGP (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in August 2021 regarding the VICI Transaction), and an approximate 56% interest in MGM ~~China, and a 42.1% economic interest in MGP.~~China.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we had ~~$13.4~~$12.7 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including ~~$1 million outstanding under the $1.35 billion Operating Partnership revolving credit facility, and $903~~$227 million outstanding under the $1.25 billion MGM China first revolving credit facility. No amounts were drawn on our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, the $1.35 billion Operating Partnership revolving credit facility, or the $400 million MGM China second revolving credit facility. We have no debt maturing prior to 2022.

Subsequent to the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we repurchased approximately 17 million shares of our common stock at an average price of ~~$39.10~~$38.72 per share for an aggregate amount of ~~$56~~$275 million. Repurchased shares will be retired.

We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of the year of approximately ~~$340~~$285 million to ~~$360~~$295 million domestically, ~~and approximately $80~~as well as an additional $30 million to ~~$90~~$40 million relating to CityCenter capital expenditures that are expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2021, assuming the transaction closes in the third quarter of 2021. Additionally, we have planned capital expenditures over the remainder of the year of approximately $50 million to $60 million at MGM China. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months are approximately ~~$345~~$340 million to ~~$350~~$345 million, excluding MGP and MGM China, and approximately $735 million to ~~$740~~$745 million on a consolidated basis. We are also currently required to make annual rent payments of $843 million under the master lease with MGP, annual rent payments of $250 million under the lease with Bellagio BREIT Venture, and annual rent payments of $298 million under the lease with MGP BREIT Venture, which leases are also subject to annual escalators.

In February 2021, we amended our credit facility to extend the covenant relief period provided under the previous amendment related to our financial maintenance covenants through the earlier of (x) the day immediately following the date we deliver to the administrative agent a compliance certificate with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2022 and (y) the date we deliver to the administrative agent an irrevocable notice terminating the covenant relief period, and to adjust the required leverage and interest coverage levels for the covenant when it is reimposed at the end of the waiver period. In addition, in connection with the February 2021 amendment, we agreed to an increase of the liquidity test such that our borrower group (as defined in the credit agreement) is required to maintain a minimum liquidity level of not less than $1.0 billion (including unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and availability under the revolving credit facility), tested at the end of each month during the covenant relief period.

Additionally, due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in February 2021, MGM China further amended each of its first revolving credit facility and its second revolving credit facility to provide for waivers of the maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio through the fourth quarter of 2022.

In ~~April~~July 2021, the Operating Partnership paid ~~$131~~$138 million of distributions to its partnership unit holders, of which we received ~~$55~~$57 million and MGP received ~~$76~~$81 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders.

On ~~April 28,~~August 4, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0025 per share. The dividend will be payable on ~~June~~September 15, 2021 to holders of record on ~~June~~September 10, 2021. Future determinations regarding the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our results of operations, financial condition, and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

As previously discussed, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and is continuing to cause, significant economic disruption both globally and in the United States, and continues to impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. As widespread vaccine distribution continues and operational restrictions have ~~lessened,~~eased, we have seen economic recovery in some of the market segments in which we operate, as shown in our summary operating results. However, some areas continue to experience renewed outbreaks and surges in infection rates. As a result, our business segments continue to face many uncertainties and our operations remain vulnerable to reversal of these trends or other continuing negative effects caused by the pandemic. We cannot predict the degree, or duration, to which our operations will be affected by the COVID-19 ~~outbreak,~~pandemic, and the effects could be material. We continue to monitor the evolving situation and guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities and may take additional actions based on their recommendations. In these circumstances, there may be developments outside our control requiring us to further adjust our operating plan, including the implementation or extension of new or existing restrictions, which may include the reinstatement of stay-at-home orders in the jurisdictions in which we operate or additional restrictions on travel and/or our business operations. Because the situation is ongoing, and because the duration and severity remain unclear, it is difficult to forecast any impacts on our future results.

A complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since year end.

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 rate borrowings and short-term borrowings under our bank credit facilities and by utilizing interest rate swap agreements that provide for a fixed interest payment on the Operating Partnership’s credit facility. 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.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, variable rate borrowings represented approximately 7%2% of our total borrowings after giving effect on the Operating Partnership’s borrowings for the currently effective interest rate swap agreements on which the Operating Partnership pays a weighted average of ~~1.821%~~1.783% on a total notional amount of ~~$1.9 billion.~~$700 million. Additionally, the Operating Partnership has $900 million of notional amount of forward starting swaps that are not currently effective. 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 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 assure 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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, a 1% weakening of the Hong Kong dollar (the functional currency of MGM China) to the U.S. dollar would result in a foreign currency transaction loss of $28 million.

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “will,” “may” and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our business, our ability to reduce expenses and otherwise maintain our liquidity position during the pandemic, our ability to generate significant cash flow, execute on ongoing and future strategic initiatives, including the development of an integrated resort in Japan and investments we make in online sports betting and iGaming, the closing of the VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction, amounts we will spend on capital expenditures and investments, our expectations with respect to future share repurchases and cash dividends on our common stock, dividends and distributions we will receive from MGM China, the Operating Partnership or CityCenter, our ability to achieve the benefits of our cost savings initiatives, and amounts projected to be realized as deferred tax assets. The foregoing is not a complete list of all forward-looking statements we make.

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Therefore, we caution you against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, regional, national or global political, economic, business, competitive, market, and regulatory conditions and the following:

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

You should also be aware that while we from time to time communicate with securities analysts, we do not disclose to them any material non-public information, internal forecasts or other confidential business information. Therefore, you should not assume that we agree with any statement or report issued by any analyst, irrespective of the content of the statement or report. To the extent that reports issued by securities analysts contain projections, forecasts or opinions, those reports are not our responsibility and are not endorsed by us.

We incorporate by reference the information appearing under “Market Risk” in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”)) were effective as of ~~March��31,~~June 30, 2021 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. This conclusion is based on an evaluation as required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act conducted under the supervision and participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer along with company management.

During the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

See discussion of legal proceedings in Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

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, 2020. There have been no material changes to those factors previously disclosed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form ~~10-K.~~10-K, except as discussed below.

The VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction each remains subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and any anticipated benefits from such transactions may take longer to realize than expected or may not be realized at all.

Each of the VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, which may not be satisfied within the anticipated timeframe or at all. For example, completion of the transactions remains subject to the receipt of certain gaming regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that any required gaming approvals will be obtained, and the regulatory authorities from which approvals are required may impose conditions on the consummation of the transaction or require changes to the terms of the transaction or agreements to be entered into in connection with the transaction. Such conditions or changes and the process of obtaining regulatory approvals could have the effect of delaying or impeding the completion of the transactions, which might reduce the anticipated benefits to us of the transaction or have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The completion of the VICI Transaction is also subject to the satisfaction of additional closing conditions, including, among others, (i) receipt of approval of VICI’s shareholders, (ii) the absence of any restraining order, injunction or other judgment, order or decree from any applicable governmental authority prohibiting the consummation of the transaction, (iii) the effectiveness of the registration statement for VICI’s shares to be issued in the VICI Transaction and the authorization for listing of those shares on the New York Stock Exchange, (iv) the absence of a material adverse effect on the parties to the master transaction agreement, (v) the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties in the master transaction agreement, subject to customary materiality standards, and (vi) compliance of each party with its respective covenants under the master transaction agreement. No assurance can be given that these or any other required conditions to closing will be satisfied. If the conditions precedent to the VICI Transaction are not satisfied, the VICI Transaction will not be completed unless such conditions are validly waived. Such conditions may jeopardize or delay the completion of the transaction or may reduce the anticipated benefits of the transaction.

Similarly, the CityCenter equity purchase and the sale leaseback of the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara are expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, but remain subject to the satisfaction of the respective closing conditions set forth under the equity purchase agreement and master transaction agreement, including, but not limited to: the receipt of necessary approvals from applicable gaming authorities for the transactions; the performance and compliance of the applicable parties with their respective covenants and agreements under the agreements; the absence of any injunctions, laws or orders promulgated by relevant courts or governmental entities preventing the relevant transactions; and, in the case of the master transaction agreement, the closing of the transactions contemplated by the equity purchase agreement with Infinity World. As a result, the possible timing of the CityCenter transactions and the likelihood of the completion such transactions are uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the CityCenter transactions will be completed on the expected terms contemplated by the equity purchase agreement and master transaction agreement, on the currently anticipated timing, or at all.

In addition, although the sale of the real estate assets of MGM Springfield to MGP is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, the transaction is subject to the receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of the other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance, however, that such interim regulatory approvals will be received, or that other closing conditions will be satisfied. Accordingly, the MGM Springfield transaction and the likelihood of the completion of such transaction also remain uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the MGM Springfield transaction will be completed on the expected terms contemplated by the agreement, on the currently anticipated timing, or at all.

If any of the transactions are not completed, or are not completed on a timely basis, our business may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed such transactions, we may be subject to additional risks, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, the following:

In addition, we entered into the transactions as part of our current growth strategy to pursue and execute on an asset-light business model, which involves a comprehensive review of our owned real estate assets to determine whether those assets can be monetized efficiently to allow unlocked capital to be redeployed towards balance sheet improvements, new growth opportunities and to return value to our shareholders. Even if the transactions are completed as currently anticipated, there can be no assurances that any anticipated benefits from the transactions will be realized as expected or that such benefits will be achieved within the anticipated time frame or at all. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the transactions could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows, cause dilution to our earnings per share, decrease or delay any accretive effect of such transactions and negatively impact the price of our common stock.

Potential litigation instituted against us, our transaction counterparties, or our respective directors challenging the proposed VICI Transaction may prevent such transaction from becoming effective within the expected timeframe or at all.

Potential litigation related to the VICI Transaction may result in injunctive or other relief prohibiting, delaying or otherwise adversely affecting the parties’ ability to complete the VICI Transaction. One of the conditions to the VICI Transaction under the master transaction agreement is that no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment, order or decree issued by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction prohibiting consummation of the VICI Transaction or any other transactions contemplated by the master transaction agreement shall be in effect. Accordingly, any such injunctive or other relief may prevent the VICI Transaction from becoming effective within the expected timeframe or at all. In addition, defending against such claims may be expensive and divert management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business and the businesses of the counterparties to such transactions.

The following table provides information about share repurchases made by the Company of its common stock during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021:

In February 2020, upon substantial completion of the May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $3.0 billion stock repurchase program. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated agreements. Repurchases of common stock may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit common stock to be purchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The timing, volume and nature of stock repurchases will be at the sole discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws, and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. All shares repurchased by the Company during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 were purchased pursuant to the Company’s publicly announced stock repurchase programs and have been ~~retired, and during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the previously announced $2.0 billion stock repurchase program was completed.~~
