SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events, including our future operating results and conditions, our prospects and our future financial performance and condition, all of which are largely based on our current expectations and projections. Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry, and have a highly leveraged business model. Moreover, we operate in Macau’s gaming sector, a market with intense competition, and therefore new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) the global pandemic of COVID-19, caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus, and the continued impact of its consequences on our business, our industry and the global economy, (ii) growth of the gaming market and visitations in Macau, (iii) capital and credit market volatility, (iv) local and global economic conditions, (v) our anticipated growth strategies, (vi) gaming authority and other governmental approvals and regulations, and (vii) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “aim,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this quarterly report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this quarterly report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION

The majority of our current revenues are denominated in H.K. dollars, while our current expenses are denominated predominantly in Patacas and H.K. dollars, and in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, in U.S. dollars. The non-financial pages of this quarterly report include all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars at a rate of HK$7.7630 to US$1.00, unless otherwise noted.

The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since October 17, 1983, the H.K. dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of HK$7.80 to US$1.00. The market exchange rate has not deviated materially from the level of HK$7.80 to US$1.00 since the peg was first established. However, in May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority broadened the trading band from the original rate of HK$7.80 per U.S. dollar to a rate range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the link at that rate, and, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.

The noon buying rate on June 30, 2021 in New York City for cable transfers in H.K. dollars for U.S. dollars, provided in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was HK$7.7658 to US$1.00. On August 20, 2021, the noon buying rate was HK$7.7897 to US$1.00. We make no representation that any H.K. dollar or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or H.K. dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 = MOP1.03. All translations from Pataca to U.S. dollar in the non-financial pages of this quarterly report were made at the exchange rate of MOP7.9959 = US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Pataca.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in connection with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected in the future. Certain statements in this “Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements.

Summary of Financial Results

For the second quarter of 2021, our total operating revenues were US$530.8 million, an increase of 185.6% from US$185.8 million of total operating revenues for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in total operating revenues was primarily attributable to an improved performance at City of Dreams, as well as increased casino revenues generated from the operations of Studio City Casino by our subsidiary, Melco Resorts Macau, the gaming subconcessionaire. Such increases resulted from a year-over-year increase in inbound tourism in the second quarter of 2021. Net income/loss from Studio City Casino gaming operations are reimbursed to/from Studio City Entertainment pursuant to the Services and Right to Use Arrangements. Such reimbursement is included in general and administrative expenses.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was US$108.9 million, compared to net loss of US$198.4 million for the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to the improved performance at City of Dreams mentioned above, partially offset by higher interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized, and net foreign exchange losses in the second quarter of 2021.

The following summarizes the results of our operations:

Other Factors Affecting Second Quarter Earnings

Total net non-operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were US$65.0 million, which mainly included interest expenses of US$58.6 million, net of amounts capitalized, compared to total net non-operating expenses of US$8.8 million for the second quarter of 2020, which mainly included interest expenses of US$44.7 million, partially offset by net foreign exchange gains of US$38.9 million which mainly arose from the receivables from affiliated companies denominated in foreign currencies.

Six Months’ Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our total operating revenues were US$1.00 billion, an increase of 10.2% from US$0.91 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in total operating revenues was primarily due to an improved performance at City of Dreams, as well as increased casino revenues generated from the operations of Studio City Casino by our subsidiary, Melco Resorts Macau, the gaming subconcessionaire, as a result of a year-over-year increase in inbound tourism in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Such increase was partially offset by softer performance in the rolling chip segment at Altira Macau.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was US$252.9 million, compared to net loss of US$366.8 million in the comparable period of 2020. The reduction in net loss was primarily attributable to the improved performance at City of Dreams mentioned above and lower net foreign exchange losses, partially offset by softer performance in Altira Macau and higher interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized, in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have relied and intend to rely on cash generated from our operations and debt and equity financings to meet our financing needs and repay our indebtedness, as the case may be. We expect to have significant capital expenditures in the future as we continue to develop our properties. Any other future developments may be subject to further financing and a number of other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

As of June 30, 2021, we held cash and cash equivalents of US$720.9 million, a bank deposit with an original maturity over three months of US$20.0 million and restricted cash of US$0.3 million. Further, HK$14.85 billion (equivalent to approximately US$1.91 billion) of the revolving credit facility under the 2020 Credit Facilities and HK$1.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.1 million) of the revolving credit facility under the 2015 Credit Facilities were available for future drawdown, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was US$44.0 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of US$333.1 million for the second quarter of 2020. The change was primarily due to the decrease in repayments from affiliated companies.

Net cash used in investing activities of US$44.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$20.9 million and the placement of a bank deposit with an original maturity over three months of US$20.0 million.

Net cash provided by investing activities of US$333.1 million for the second quarter of 2020 included repayments from affiliated companies of US$367.2 million, partially offset by payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$34.1 million.

Our total payments for acquisition of property and equipment for the second quarter of 2021 were US$20.9 million, compared to US$34.1 million for the second quarter of 2020. Such expenditures for both periods were mainly associated with our development projects as well as enhancement to our integrated resort offerings.

Net cash used in investing activities was US$75.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of US$287.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change was primarily due to the decrease in repayments from affiliated companies.

Net cash used in investing activities of US$75.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$52.4 million and the placement of a bank deposit with an original maturity over three months of US$20.0 million.

Net cash provided by investing activities of US$287.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 mainly included repayments from affiliated companies of US$367.2 million, partially offset by payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$80.0 million.

Our total payments for acquisition of property and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were US$52.4 million, compared to US$80.0 million for the second quarter of 2020. Such expenditures for both periods were mainly associated with our development projects as well as enhancement to our integrated resort offerings.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$2.9 million for the second quarter of 2021, which primarily represented the funds from an affiliated company of US$3.0 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$55.2 million for the second quarter of 2020, which primarily represented the proceeds from the drawdown of the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$352.2 million, partially offset by the repayment of all outstanding loan amounts under the 2015 Credit Facilities of US$252.6 million, other than HK$1.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.1 million) which remained outstanding under the term loan facility, as well as the payments of deferred financing costs mainly arising from the refinancing of the 2015 Credit Facilities with the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$47.0 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which primarily represented the proceeds from the issuance of the Additional 2029 Senior Notes of US$258.1 million, which priced at 103.250% of the principal amount, partially offset by the repayment of the outstanding revolving credit facility under the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$249.9 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$311.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, which primarily represented the proceeds from the drawdown of the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$352.2 million and the proceeds from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility under the 2015 Credit Facilities of US$251.5 million. The foregoing was partially offset by the repayment of all outstanding loan amounts under the 2015 Credit Facilities of US$252.6 million, other than HK$1.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$0.1 million) which remained outstanding under the term loan facility, as well as the payments of deferred financing costs mainly arising from the refinancing of the 2015 Credit Facilities with the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$48.5 million.

Recent Developments

The COVID-19 outbreak continues to have a material effect on our operations, financial position, and prospects during the third quarter of 2021.

Our operations continue to be impacted by travel bans, restrictions, and quarantine requirements imposed by the governments in Macau, Hong Kong and China, despite the nationwide resumption of issuance of Individual Visit Scheme visas by China in September 2020. Such bans, restrictions and requirements have been, and may continue to be, modified by the relevant authorities from time to time as COVID-19 developments unfold. The resurgence of COVID-19 cases in the Guangdong province from June 2021, other provinces in mainland China from July 2021 and in Macau in early August 2021 led to city-wide mandatory testing, mandatory closure of most entertainment and leisure venues (casinos and gaming areas excluded) and strict travel restrictions and requirements being implemented to enter and exit Macau. Additionally, health-related precautionary measures remain in place at our properties, which continue to impact visitation and customer spending.

The pace of recovery from COVID-19 related disruptions continues to depend on various future events, such as the successful production, distribution and widespread acceptance of safe and effective vaccines, the development of effective treatments for COVID-19, including for new strains of COVID-19, the duration of travel and visa restrictions as well as customer sentiment and behavior, together with the length of time before customers resume traveling and participating in entertainment and leisure activities at high-density venues and the impact of potential higher unemployment rates, declines in income levels and loss of personal wealth resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak on consumer behavior related to discretionary spending and traveling, all of which remain highly uncertain.
