Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and related notes thereto and the other disclosures contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which were included in our Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2025. The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods. MGM Resorts International together with its subsidiaries may be referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” MGM China Holdings Limited together with its subsidiaries is referred to as “MGM China.”

Key Performance Indicators

Key performance indicators related to gaming and hotel revenue are:

  • Gaming revenue indicators: table games drop, which is the total amount of cash and net markers issued and deposited into the drop box, and slot handle, which is the gross amount wagered in slot machines, (volume indicators); “win” or “hold” percentage, which is not fully controllable by us. “Win” or “hold” percentages represent the net amount of gaming wins and losses in relation to table games drop or slot handle; and

  • Hotel revenue indicators (for Las Vegas Strip Resorts) – hotel occupancy (a volume indicator); average daily rate (“ADR,” a price indicator); and revenue per available room (“RevPAR,” a summary measure of hotel results, combining ADR and occupancy rate). Our calculation of ADR, which is the average price of occupied rooms per day, includes the impact of complimentary rooms. Complimentary room rates are determined based on standalone selling price. Because the mix of rooms provided on a complimentary basis, particularly to casino customers, includes a disproportionate suite component, the composite ADR including complimentary rooms is slightly higher than the ADR for cash rooms, reflecting the higher retail value of suites.

Las Vegas Strip Resorts

Las Vegas Strip Resorts Segment Adjusted EBITDAR decreased 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year quarter. Las Vegas Strip Resorts Segment Adjusted EBITDAR margin was 37.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 36.7% in the prior year quarter due primarily to the receipt of $37 million of business interruption insurance proceeds related to the September 2023 cybersecurity issue, partially offset by the decline in revenue as discussed above and an increase in payroll related expenses.

Regional Operations

Regional Operations Segment Adjusted EBITDAR increased 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the prior year quarter. Regional Operations Segment Adjusted EBITDAR margin was 31.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 30.1% in the prior year quarter due primarily to the receipt of $12 million of business interruption insurance proceeds related to the September 2023 cybersecurity issue.

MGM China

MGM China Segment Adjusted EBITDAR margin was 27.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 28.5% in the prior year quarter due primarily to the decrease in casino revenue and an increase in payroll related expenses.

MGM Digital

MGM Digital Segment Adjusted EBITDAR loss was $34 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $19 million the prior year quarter. The change was due primarily to the increase in payroll related expenses and costs from expansion into new markets.

Non-operating Results

Interest expense

Gross interest expense was $108 million and $111 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Other, net

Other, net was expense of $11 million and $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Other, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily comprised of a foreign currency transaction loss of $101 million primarily related to USD denominated debt held by a foreign subsidiary, partially offset by a net gain related to derivatives of $40 million, a gain related to debt and equity investments of $35 million, and interest and dividend income of $15 million. Other, net for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily comprised of a net loss related to derivatives of $38 million and a loss related to debt and equity investments of $21 million, partially offset by a foreign currency transaction gain of $33 million and interest and dividend income of $23 million.

Income taxes

Our effective income tax rate was 15.0% and 12.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was favorably impacted primarily by Macau gaming profits which are exempt from complementary tax.

Reportable Segment GAAP measure

“Segment Adjusted EBITDAR” is our reportable segment GAAP measure, which we utilize as the primary profit measure for our reportable segments and underlying operating segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, property transactions, net, triple net lease rent expense, loss from unconsolidated affiliates, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment. Triple net lease rent expense is the expense for rent to landlords under triple net operating leases for its domestic

properties, the ground subleases of Beau Rivage and MGM National Harbor, and the land concessions at MGM China. “Segment Adjusted EBITDAR margin” is Segment Adjusted EBITDAR divided by related segment net revenues.

Non-GAAP measures

“Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” is earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, and property transactions, net.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA information is a non-GAAP measure that is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because it is among the measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance, and because we believe this measure is widely used by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors as a measure of operating performance in the gaming industry and as a principal basis for the valuation of gaming companies. We believe that while items excluded from Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA 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 compared to other periods because these items can vary significantly depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may not be comparable between the periods being presented. Also, we believe excluded items may not relate specifically to current operating trends or be indicative of future results. For example, preopening and start-up expenses will be significantly different in periods when we are developing and constructing a major expansion project and will depend on where the current period lies within the development cycle, as well as the size and scope of the project(s). Property transactions, net includes normal recurring disposals, gains and losses on sales of assets related to specific assets within our properties, 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, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be construed as an alternative or substitute to any measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For example, we have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, income taxes, and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, while we believe that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a relevant measure of performance, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to or substitute for operating income or net income as an indicator of our performance, or as an alternative to or substitute for cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA may calculate Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner and such differences may be material. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is included herein.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to MGM Resorts International to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA:

Guarantor Financial Information

As of March 31, 2025, all of our registered principal debt arrangements are guaranteed by each of our wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facility. Our registered principal debt arrangements and our senior credit facility are not guaranteed by MGM Grand Detroit, LLC, MGM National Harbor, LLC, Blue Tarp reDevelopment, LLC (d/b/a MGM Springfield), MGM Sports & Interactive Gaming, LLC (the entity that holds our 50% interest in BetMGM North America Venture), MGM CEE Holdco, LLC (the entity that holds our consolidated digital gaming subsidiaries, including LeoVegas), and each of their respective subsidiaries. Our foreign subsidiaries, including MGM China and its subsidiaries, are also not guarantors of our registered principal debt arrangements or our senior credit facility. In the event that any subsidiary is no longer a guarantor of our senior 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 are 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.

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

Cash used in investing activities was $227 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $108 million in the prior year period. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we made payments of $228 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below. In comparison, in the prior year period we made payments of $172 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below, contributed $10 million to unconsolidated affiliates, and received $105 million in net short-term investments in debt securities.

Capital Expenditures

We made capital expenditures of $228 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, of which $60 million related to MGM China and is inclusive of capital expenditures relating to the gaming concession investment. Capital expenditures primarily related to room remodels and information technology.

We made capital expenditures of $172 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, of which $15 million related to MGM China and is inclusive of capital expenditures related to the gaming concession investment. Capital expenditures primarily related to information technology and room remodels.

Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities was $470 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $629 million in the prior year period. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net borrowings of

debt of $50 million, as further discussed below, paid $489 million for repurchases of our common stock, and distributed $12 million to noncontrolling interest owners. In comparison, in the prior year period, we had net repayments of debt of $77 million, as further discussed below, paid $507 million for repurchases of our common stock, and distributed $12 million to noncontrolling interest owners.

Borrowings and Repayments of Long-term Debt

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net borrowings of debt of $50 million on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had net repayments of debt of $77 million on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility, which were funded with cash on hand.

Share Repurchases

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid $489 million relating to repurchases of our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plans. See Note 9 for further information on the stock repurchases. The remaining availability under the November 2023 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was $337 million as of March 31, 2025. Additionally, in April 2025, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we paid $507 million relating to repurchases of our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plans. In connection with those repurchases, the February 2023 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was completed.

Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Anticipated Uses of Cash

We require a certain amount of cash on hand to operate our businesses. 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 properties daily into central bank accounts, and excess funds are invested overnight or are used to repay amounts drawn under our revolving credit facilities. In addition, from time to time we may use excess funds to repurchase our outstanding debt and equity securities subject to limitations in our revolving credit facility and Delaware law, as applicable. We have significant outstanding debt, interest payments, rent payments, and contractual obligations in addition to planned capital expenditures and commitments.

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 billion, of which MGM China held $815 million, and we had $6.5 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $3.0 billion related to MGM China. No amounts were drawn on our revolving credit facility or MGM China’s second revolving credit facility and, as of March 31, 2025, there was $527 million outstanding under MGM China’s first revolving credit facility.

On April 15, 2025, MGM China entered into a HK$23.4 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The MGM China revolving credit facility matures in April 2030 and bears interest at a fluctuating rate per annum based on the Hong Kong Interbank Offer Rate plus 1.625% to 2.75%, as determined by MGM China’s leverage ratio. The MGM China revolving credit facility contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and positive, negative and financial covenants, including that MGM China maintains compliance with a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. In April 2025, MGM China repaid in full the amounts outstanding under its MGM China first revolving credit facility with borrowings under the MGM China revolving credit facility and the total commitments of the MGM China first revolving credit facility and MGM China second revolving credit facility were cancelled in full.

Our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months, based on principal amounts of debt outstanding, contractual maturity dates, and interest rates, each as of March 31, 2025, are approximately $190 million to $210 million, excluding MGM China, and approximately $360 million to $380 million on a consolidated basis, which includes MGM China.

We are also required, as of March 31, 2025, to make annual cash rent payments of $1.8 billion to our landlords over the next twelve months under triple net lease agreements, which triple net leases are also subject to annual escalators and also require us to pay substantially all costs associated with the lease, including real estate taxes, ground lease payments, insurance, utilities and routine maintenance (with each lease obligating us to spend a specified percentage of net revenues at the properties on capital expenditures), in addition to the annual cash rent.

We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of 2025 of approximately $870 million to $970 million on a consolidated basis, of which $175 million to $225 million relates to MGM China and is inclusive of the estimated amount of the gaming concession investment that relates to capital projects.

We continue to explore potential development or investment opportunities, such as expanding our global online gaming presence and pursuing a commercial gaming facility in New York, which may require cash commitments in the future. If our pursuit of a commercial gaming facility in New York is successful, we expect the project cost to be approximately $2 billion, inclusive of a $500 million license fee, with the amount and timing of costs dependent upon the progress and scope of the project and selection process. Additionally, we have cash commitments to fund Osaka IR KK relating to the development of an integrated resort in Osaka, Japan of 428 billion yen, which represents our approximate 43.5% equity share (our estimated ownership percentage of Osaka IR KK subsequent to subscribed minority equity interest funding). We expect to fund the estimated remaining amount of approximately 392 billion yen (approximately $2.6 billion as of March 31, 2025) over the next four years, depending upon project progress. We expect project costs will increase due primarily to inflation, which increases may be offset by cost mitigation efforts and funded by additional financing. Refer to Note 7 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding our commitments and guarantees.

We also expect to continue to repurchase shares pursuant to our share repurchase plans. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, we repurchased approximately 8 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate amount of $215 million, excluding excise tax. Repurchased shares were retired.

MGM China recommended a final dividend for 2024 in March 2025, subject to shareholders’ approval. If approved, MGM China would pay approximately $123 million in June 2025, of which we would receive approximately $69 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since year end.

Market Risk

There have been no material changes in our market risk from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, other than those below.

Interest rate risk. We are subject to 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. 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.

As of March 31, 2025, variable rate borrowings represented approximately 8% of our total borrowings. The following table provides additional information about our gross long-term debt subject to changes in interest rates:

Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: statements we make regarding expectations regarding the impact of macroeconomic trends on our business; our ability to execute on ongoing and future strategic initiatives, including the development of an integrated resort in Japan, a commercial gaming facility in New York, expectations regarding the potential opportunity for gaming expansion in Dubai, and investments we make in online sports betting and iGaming, the expansion of LeoVegas and the MGM digital brand; positioning BetMGM North America Venture as a leader in sports betting and iGaming; 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; amounts projected to be realized as deferred tax assets; our ability to achieve our public social impact and sustainability goals; the impact to our business, operations and reputation from, and expenses and uncertainties associated with, the September 2023 cybersecurity issue; the timing and outcome of investigations by state regulators related to the September 2023 cybersecurity issue, and the availability of cybersecurity insurance proceeds and the nature and scope of any regulatory proceedings that may be brought against us. 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:

  • the fact that co-investing in properties or businesses, including our investment in BetMGM North America Venture, decreases our ability to manage risk;

  • the fact that future construction, development, or expansion projects will be subject to significant development and construction risks, which could have a material adverse impact on related project timetables, costs, and our ability to complete the projects;

  • the fact that our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all possible losses that our properties could suffer, our insurance costs may increase and we may not be able to obtain similar insurance coverage in the future;

  • the fact that a failure to protect our intellectual property could have a negative impact on the value of our brand names and adversely affect our business;

  • the fact that a significant portion of our labor force is covered by collective bargaining agreements;

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.

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.
