Upon closing, the master lease between the Company and VICI will be amended to remove MGM Northfield Park and to reflect a $53 million reduction in annual cash rent, subject to a 2% escalator on May 1, 2026. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2026, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
Reportable segments. The Company has four reportable segments: Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations, MGM China, and MGM Digital. See Note 11 for additional information about the Company’s segments.
NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
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”). The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary. Bellagio REIT Venture (the
landlord of Bellagio, which is a venture in which the Company has a 5% ownership interest) and MGM Osaka are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have power on its own to direct the activities that could potentially be significant to the ventures and, accordingly, does not consolidate the ventures. 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.
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 generally accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as BetMGM North America Venture, which does not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entity is structured with substantive participating rights whereby both owners participate in the decision making process, which prevents the Company from exerting a controlling financial interest in such entity, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810. For entities over which the Company does not have significant influence, the Company accounts for its equity investment under ASC 321.
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 or equity interests, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in an acquisition, and goodwill and other intangible assets. Fair value measurements also affect the Company’s accounting for certain of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes: Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices in an active market; Level 2 inputs, which are quoted prices for identical or comparable instruments or pricing using observable market data; or Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs. The Company used the following inputs in its fair value measurements:
-
Level 1 inputs when measuring its equity investments recorded at fair value;
-
Level 2 inputs for its long-term debt fair value disclosures; See Note 5;
-
Level 2 inputs for its derivatives;
-
Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for its debt investments; and
-
Level 3 inputs when measuring the impairment of goodwill related to the Empire City reporting unit and the existing Empire City gaming license.
Equity investments. Fair value is measured based upon trading prices on the applicable securities exchange for equity investments for which the Company has elected the fair value option of ASC 825 and equity investments accounted for under ASC 321 that have a readily determinable fair value. The fair value of these investments was $415 million and $388 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and is reflected within “Other long-term assets, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses are recorded in “Other, net” in the statements of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 the Company recorded a net loss on its equity investments of $6 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net gain on its equity investments of $27 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a net gain on its equity investments of $48 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a net loss on its equity investments of $2 million.
Derivatives. The Company uses derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these derivatives are recorded within “Other, net” in the statements of operations and within “Other” in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. The balance sheet classification of the derivatives in a current liability position are within “Other accrued liabilities,” a long-term liability position are within “Other long-term obligations,” a current asset position are within “Prepaid expenses and other,” and a long-term asset position are within “Other long-term assets, net.”
As of September 30, 2025, the Company has forward currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of derivatives classified as assets were $1 million in current assets and those classified as liabilities were $39 million in current liabilities. As of
December 31, 2024, the fair value of derivatives classified as liabilities were $96 million, with $57 million in current liabilities and $39 million in long-term liabilities.
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss on its derivatives of $41 million and for the nine months ended September 2025, the Company recorded a net gain of $34 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a net gain on its derivatives of $87 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a net loss on its derivatives of $13 million.
Debt investments. The Company’s investments in debt securities are classified as trading securities and recorded at fair value. Gains and losses are recorded in “Other, net” in the statements of operations. Debt securities are considered cash equivalents if the criteria for such classification is met or otherwise classified as short-term investments within “Prepaid expenses and other” since the investment of cash is available for current operations.

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value because of the short maturity of those instruments (Level 1).
Restricted cash. MGM China’s pledged cash of $87 million for each of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, securing the bank guarantees discussed in Note 8 is restricted in use and classified within “Other long-term assets, net.” Such amounts plus “Cash and cash equivalents” on the consolidated balance sheets equal “Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash” on the consolidated statements of cash flows as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the loss reserve on accounts receivable was $142 million and $135 million, respectively.
Goodwill and intangible assets. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company performed an interim impairment test of goodwill related to the Empire City reporting unit. See Note 4 for further discussion.
Accounts payable. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had accrued $82 million and $109 million, respectively, for purchases of property and equipment within “Accounts and construction payable” on the consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue recognition. Contract and Contract-Related Liabilities. There may be a difference between the timing of cash receipts from the customer and the recognition of revenue, resulting in a contract or contract-related liability. The Company generally has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, which represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by a customer, (2) loyalty program obligations, which represents the deferred allocation of revenue relating to loyalty program incentives earned, and (3) customer advances and other, which is primarily funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs (“casino front money”) and advance payments on goods and services yet to be provided, such as advance ticket sales and deposits on rooms and convention space or for unpaid wagers. These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited and are recorded within “Other accrued liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets.
The following table summarizes the activity related to contract and contract-related liabilities:

Leases. Refer to Note 7 for information regarding leases under which the Company is a lessee. The Company is a lessor under certain other lease arrangements. Lease revenues earned by the Company from third parties are classified within the line item corresponding to the type or nature of the tenant’s good or service. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $18 million and $54 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively, and $30 million and $88 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue for the same such periods, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $21 million and $62 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively and $28 million and $86 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue for the same such periods, respectively. Lease revenues from the rental of hotel rooms are recorded as rooms revenues within the consolidated statements of operations.
Property transactions, net. The Company classifies transactions such as write-downs and impairments, demolition costs, and normal gains and losses on the sale of assets as “Property transactions, net.” During the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded charges for write-downs and impairments within “Property transactions, net” of $93 million related to the Company determining it would withdraw its application for a commercial gaming license for Empire City as discussed in Note 4, of which charges primarily consist of the impairment of $52 million relating to Empire City’s existing gaming license.
Recently issued accounting standards. In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,” which removes software development project stages and requires entities to begin capitalizing eligible costs when both (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company’s interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption.

Empire City goodwill and gaming license impairment. The value of the Empire City reporting unit has been dependent upon the Company obtaining a commercial gaming license and the timing thereof, as well as other assumptions related to constructing and operating a commercial gaming facility. In the third quarter of 2025, the competitive and economic assumptions underpinning the Company’s return expectations on its investment in a commercial gaming facility changed, which led the Company to determine it would withdraw its application for a commercial gaming license for Empire City. Accordingly, the Company performed an interim impairment test of the goodwill related to the Empire City reporting unit using a discounted cash flow model to estimate fair value. As a result of the decrease in forecasted cash flows, the carrying value of Empire City exceeded its fair value. As such, the Company recorded an impairment of the full amount of the Empire City reporting unit’s goodwill of $256 million, which is reflected within Regional Operations above and presented in “Goodwill impairment” in the accompanying statements of operations. Additionally, the Company recorded an impairment of $52 million relating to Empire City’s existing gaming license, presented in “Property transactions, net” in the accompanying statements of operations.

For interim income tax reporting the Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate and applies it to its year-to-date ordinary income. The income tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur.

NOTE 8 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Cybersecurity litigation, claims, and investigations. In September 2023, through unauthorized access to certain of its U.S. systems, third-party criminal actors accessed, for some of the Company’s customers, personal information (including name, contact information (such as phone number, email address and postal address), gender, date of birth and driver’s license numbers). For a limited number of customers, Social Security numbers and passport numbers were also accessed by the criminal actors. The Company has notified individuals impacted by this issue in accordance with federal and state law.
In connection with this cybersecurity issue, the Company became subject to consumer class actions in U.S. and Canadian courts. These class actions assert a variety of common law and statutory claims based on allegations that the Company failed to use reasonable security procedures and practices to safeguard customers’ personal information, and seek monetary and statutory damages, injunctive relief and other related relief. The Company reached a settlement for $45 million to resolve the purported U.S. civil class action litigation related to the 2023 cybersecurity issue and a 2019 cybersecurity issue, which was paid by insurance carriers into a settlement fund in February 2025. The District Court for the District of Nevada approved the parties' settlement in the U.S. class actions and entered judgment in June 2025. In addition, the Company continues to be subject to investigations by state regulators, which also could result in monetary fines and other relief. The Company cannot predict the timing or outcome of any of these potential matters, or whether the Company may be subject to additional legal proceedings, claims, regulatory inquiries, investigations, or enforcement actions. While the Company believes it is reasonably possible that it may incur losses associated with the above-described proceedings, it is not possible to estimate the amount of loss or range of loss, if any, that might result from adverse judgments, settlements, or other resolution given the preliminary stage of these proceedings.
Other litigation. The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings, most of which relate to routine matters incidental to its business. Management does not believe that the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Commitments and guarantees. MGM China bank guarantees. In connection with the issuance of the gaming concession in January 2023, bank guarantees were provided to the government of Macau in the amount of MOP1 billion (approximately $125 million as of September 30, 2025) to warrant the fulfillment of labor liabilities and of damages or losses that may result if there is noncompliance with the concession. The guarantees expire 180 days after the end of the concession term. As of September 30, 2025, MOP700 million of the bank guarantees (approximately $87 million as of September 30, 2025) were secured by pledged cash.
Bellagio REIT shortfall guarantee. The Company provides a shortfall guarantee of the $3.01 billion principal amount of indebtedness (and any interest accrued and unpaid thereon) of the landlord of Bellagio, Bellagio REIT Venture, which is a VIE and a related party, for which such indebtedness matures in 2029. The terms of the shortfall guarantee provide that after the lenders have exhausted certain remedies to collect on the obligations under the indebtedness, the Company would then be responsible for any shortfall between the value of the collateral, which is the real estate assets of the applicable property owned by the landlord, and the debt obligation. The guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.
MGM Osaka guarantees. The Company provides for guarantees (1) in the amount of JPY12.65 billion (approximately $86 million as of September 30, 2025) for 50% of MGM Osaka’s obligations to Osaka under various agreements related to the venture’s development of an integrated resort in Osaka, Japan and (2) of an uncapped amount to provide funding to MGM Osaka, if necessary, for the completion of the construction and full opening of the integrated resort. The guarantees expire when the obligations relating to the full opening of the integrated resort are fulfilled. The guarantees are accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial. Additionally, the Company’s ownership interest in MGM Osaka, which had a carrying value of $432 million as of September 30, 2025, is pledged as collateral for MGM Osaka’s obligations under its credit agreement.
MGM Osaka funding commitment. The Company has commitments to fund MGM Osaka of JPY428 billion, of which an estimated amount of approximately JPY361 billion (approximately $2.4 billion as of September 30, 2025) remains to be funded as of September 30, 2025. The amount and timing of funding is expected to change as a result of project progress, inflation, and other factors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company funded JPY18.4 billion (approximately $123 million) and JPY30.7 billion (approximately $208 million) of the committed amount, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company funded JPY22.2 billion (approximately $138 million) and JPY25.2 billion (approximately $157 million) of the committed amount, respectively.
Other guarantees. The Company and its subsidiaries are party to various guarantee contracts in the normal course of business, which are generally supported by letters of credit issued by financial institutions. The Company’s senior credit facility limits the amount of letters of credit that can be issued to $1.35 billion. At September 30, 2025, $25 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the Company’s senior credit facility. The amount of available borrowings under the credit facility is reduced by any outstanding letters of credit.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately 30 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $1.3 billion.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s management views the operations of each of its casino properties as an operating segment which are aggregated into the reportable segments of Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations, and MGM China based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s interactive gaming operations are reported within the MGM Digital reportable segment. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company added MGM Digital as a reportable segment to reflect the Company’s strategic focus on interactive gaming. The corresponding items of segment information for MGM Digital, which were previously included within “Corporate and other”, as applicable, were recast for prior periods.
Las Vegas Strip Resorts. Las Vegas Strip Resorts consists of the following casino resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada: Aria (including Vdara), Bellagio, The Cosmopolitan, MGM Grand Las Vegas (including The Signature), Mandalay Bay
(including W Las Vegas and Four Seasons), Luxor, New York-New York (including The Park), Excalibur, and Park MGM (including NoMad Las Vegas).
Regional Operations. Regional Operations consists of the following casino properties: MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan; Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi; Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey; MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland; MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts; Empire City in Yonkers, New York; and MGM Northfield Park in Northfield Park, Ohio.
MGM China. MGM China consists of MGM Macau and MGM Cotai.
MGM Digital. MGM Digital consists of LeoVegas and other consolidated subsidiaries that offer interactive gaming.
The Company’s operations related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates, and certain other corporate operations and management services have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in “Corporate and other” in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results.
Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is the Company’s reportable segment GAAP measure, which management utilizes as the primary profit measure for its 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, income (loss) from unconsolidated affiliates, goodwill impairment, 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.
