Exhibit 99.1

Supplemental Information Regarding Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited

Gearing Ratio

As of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Melco Resorts’ gearing ratio (total long-term debt, net divided by total assets) were 45.7% and 40.0%, respectively. The gearing ratio increased as of December 31, 2018, primarily a result of increased indebtedness from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility under the 2015 Credit Facilities, offset by the early redemption of Philippine Notes, early partial redemption of 2012 Studio City Notes and the scheduled repayments of the term loan under the 2015 Credit Facilities.

As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Melco Resorts’ gearing ratio (total long-term debt, net divided by total assets) were 40.0% and 39.8%, respectively.


Accounts Receivable

Melco Resorts grants unsecured credit lines to gaming promoters based on pre-approved credit limits. Melco Resorts typically issues markers to gaming promoters with a credit period of 30 days. There are some gaming promoters for whom credit is granted on a revolving basis based on the monthly credit risk assessment of these gaming promoters.

Credit lines granted to all gaming promoters are subject to monthly review and settlement procedures. For certain approved casino customers, Melco Resorts typically allows a credit period of 14 to 28 days on issuance of markers following investigations of creditworthiness. An extended repayment term of typically 90 days may be offered to casino customers with large gaming losses and established credit history.

Melco Resorts’ trade receivables related to the rooms, catering service, entertainment and retail are largely operated on cash on delivery or due immediately on the date of billing, except for those well-established customers to whom credit terms of 30 days would be granted.
