Pursuant to the Gaming Act, the Company is required to commence gaming operations at Wynn Boston Harbor [removed: by June 2020, the date that is] [added: approximately] one year from our projected opening date of [removed: June 2019.][added: mid-2019.]

The controversy, regulatory action, litigation and investigations related to Stephen A.
On February 6, 2018, Mr. Wynn resigned as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors after allegations of inappropriate personal conduct by Mr. Wynn in the workplace were reported in a January 26, 2018 Wall Street Journal article.
The resulting controversy related to Mr. Wynn and his separation from the Company could significantly harm our business in numerous ways, including in ways that we cannot predict.
As discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K, gaming regulators in Macau, Massachusetts and Nevada are reviewing the situation.
Each of these regulatory authorities has extensive power to license and oversee the operations of our casino resorts and could take action against the Company and its related licensees or Mr. Wynn, including actions that could affect the ability or terms upon which our subsidiaries hold their gaming licenses and concessions, the suitability of the Company to continue as a stockholder of those subsidiaries, and/or the suitability of Mr. Wynn to continue as a stockholder of the Company.
As discussed in Item 3—"Legal Proceedings" and Item 8—"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," Note 14, "Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation," lawsuits have been filed against the Company and our Board of Directors arising out of the allegations against Mr. Wynn, and such claims present a number of risks, including distraction of management, assertions that could affect our reputation, and potential legal liabilities.
Additional allegations have been and may in the future be asserted against Mr. Wynn and/or the Company, and additional regulatory or legal proceedings involving the Company may be commenced in the future.
The developments regarding Mr. Wynn have and may in the future affect the course of proceedings and the parties' position in litigation in which Elaine P.
Wynn, Mr. Wynn's former spouse, submitted a cross claim seeking to void a stockholders agreement to which she and Mr. Wynn are parties.
The cross claim, if successful, could increase the possibility of a change in control occurring for purposes of
certain Wynn Las Vegas, LLC debt documents.
For additional information on the cross claim, see Item 8—"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," Note 14, "Commitments and Contingencies." In addition, the Company's integrated resort business model was pioneered by Mr. Wynn.
Our business, reputation, and competitive position may now suffer as a result of our association with Mr. Wynn, or as a result of his separation from the Company and the loss of his skills and experience.
In connection with the allegations of inappropriate personal conduct by Mr. Wynn in the workplace reported in a January 26, 2018 Wall Street Journal article, gaming regulators in Massachusetts and Nevada are reviewing the allegations, the Company's internal policies and procedures with respect to maintaining a safe and respectful workplace for all employees and suitability with respect to the Company and its related licensees.
The gaming regulator in Macau is monitoring and reviewing the situation.
Each of these regulatory authorities has extensive power to license and oversee the operations of our casino resorts and could take action against the Company and its related licensees or Mr. Wynn, including actions that could affect the ability or terms upon which our subsidiaries hold their gaming licenses and concessions, the suitability of the Company to continue as a stockholder of those affiliates and/or the suitability of Mr. Wynn to continue as a stockholder of the Company.
On January 26, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors formed a Special Committee comprised solely of independent directors to investigate allegations of inappropriate personal conduct by Mr. Wynn in the workplace.
On February 12, 2018, the Special Committee announced that its review was expanded to include a comprehensive review of the Company's internal policies and procedures with the goal of employing best practices to maintain a safe and respectful workplace for all employees.
Gaming regulators in Massachusetts and Nevada are reviewing these matters, including suitability with respect to the Company and its related licensees, and the Company is cooperating with these regulatory reviews.
The gaming regulator in Macau is monitoring and reviewing the situation, and the Company is cooperating.
We depend on the continued services of key managers and employees.
If we do not retain our key personnel or attract and retain other highly skilled employees, our business will suffer.
The loss of services of our senior managers or the inability to attract and retain additional senior management personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.
the reduction of annual withdrawal limits from bank accounts while the account holder is outside of mainland China.
These policies may impact the number of visitors and the amount of money they bring from mainland China to Macau.
Acts or the threat of acts of terrorism, regional political events and developments in certain countries could cause severe disruptions in air and other travel and may otherwise negatively impact tourists' willingness to visit our resorts.
Furthermore, the attack in Las Vegas on October 1, 2017 underscores the possibility that large public facilities could become the target of mass shootings or other attacks in the future.
The occurrence or the possibility of attacks could cause all or portions of affected properties to be shut down for prolonged periods, resulting in a loss of income; generally reduce travel to affected areas for tourism and business or adversely affect the willingness of customers to stay in or avail themselves of the services of the affected properties; expose us to a risk of monetary claims arising from death, injury or damage to property caused by any such attack; and result in higher costs for security and insurance premiums, all of which could adversely affect our results.
Our continued success depends on our ability to maintain the reputation of our resorts.
Our strategy and integrated resort business model rely on positive perceptions of our resorts and the level of service we provide.
Our reputation could be negatively impacted by our failure to deliver the superior design and customer service for which we are known or by events that are beyond our control.
Our reputation may also suffer as a result of negative publicity regarding the Company or our resorts, including as a result of social media reports, regardless of the accuracy of such publicity.
The continued expansion of media and social media formats has compounded the potential scope of negative publicity and has made it more difficult to control and effectively manage negative publicity.
In connection with the Redemption Action and Counterclaim additional actions were commenced.
Any adverse judgments or settlements involving payment of a material sum of money could cause a material adverse effect on our
Several of the current concessionaires and subconcessionaires have opened facilities in the Cotai area over the past few years, which has significantly increased gaming and non-gaming offerings in Macau, with continued development and further openings in Cotai expected in the near future.
In particular, the legalization or expansion of casino gaming in or
We have begun site preparation and pre-construction activities for the re-development of the land formerly occupied by the Wynn Las Vegas golf course, which we closed in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Phase 1 of the project is expected to include a lagoon and additional meeting and convention space.
Based on current designs, we estimate the total project budget for Phase 1 to be approximately $500 million and we expect to open Phase 1 in the first half of 2020.

Mr. Wynn's employment agreement expires in October 2022; however, we cannot assure you that Mr. Wynn will remain with Wynn Resorts.

complicated and often increasingly more stringent, and may be applied retroactively.
Accordingly, we may be required to make additional expenditures to remain in, or to achieve compliance with, environmental laws in the future.
In connection with the Redemption Action and Counterclaim (1) various Okada Parties filed a complaint in the Tokyo District Court against the Company, all members of the Board of Directors (other than Mr. Okada) and the Company's General Counsel alleging that the press release issued by the Company in connection with the Redemption Action has damaged their social evaluation and credibility and seeking damages and legal fees, (2) four federal derivative actions were commenced against the Company and all members of its Board of Directors, (3) two state derivative actions were commenced against the Company and all members of its Board of Directors, (4) regulatory inquiries and investigations were initiated against the Company, and (5) the Okada Parties filed a complaint in the Court of First Instance of Macau (against

Development Projects
We have begun site preparation and pre-construction activities for the redevelopment of the land previously occupied by the Wynn Las Vegas golf course, which we closed in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Phase 1 of the project is expected to include a lagoon and additional meeting and convention space.
Based on current designs, we estimate the total project budget for Phase 1 to be approximately $500 million and we expect to open Phase 1 in the first half of 2020.
The increase in net income attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited was primarily the result of the provisional income tax benefit from U.S. tax reform and increases in operating income from Wynn Palace, Wynn Macau and our Las Vegas Operations, partially offset by increases in the Redemption Note fair value and interest expense as we are no longer capitalizing interest on Wynn Palace.

The increase was primarily due to increases of $1.45 billion, $225.0 million and $9.7 million from Wynn Palace, Wynn Macau and our Las Vegas Operations, respectively.
The increase in casino revenues from Wynn Macau was primarily driven by a 23.9% increase in VIP turnover.

Future Development
Non-negotiable chips can only be used to make wagers.
The decrease in net income attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited was primarily due to weaker performance from Wynn Macau, driven by a 46.4% reduction in VIP turnover compared to 2014, along with a loss on extinguishment of debt we experienced
during the year.
Adjusted Property EBITDA decreased year-over-year by 33.1%, from $1.77 billion for the year ended December 31, 2014 to $1.19 billion for the same period of 2015, primarily as a result of the weaker performance from Wynn Macau previously discussed.

Non-casino revenues consist of operating revenues from rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other, less promotional allowances.
We expensed $98.9 million for the consideration paid to holders who tendered the 2020 Notes, $17.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue discount and $0.1 million in other fees incurred.
In connection with the redemption of the remaining principal amount of the untendered 2020 Notes, we recorded a loss for the premium portion of the consideration of $5.9 million and expensed $1.8 million of unamortized deferred financing costs and original discount.

In August 2016, Wynn Macau SA received an extension of the agreement for an additional five years applicable to tax years 2016 through 2020.
The extension agreement provides for an annual payment of 12.8 million Macau patacas (approximately $1.6 million).

| | $ | 4,075,883 | | | $ | 5,433,661 | | | (25.0 | ) |
The decline in net revenues was primarily driven by a decrease of 35.5%, or $1.27 billion, in casino revenue from our Macau Operations.
| Casino revenues | $ | 2,932,419 | | | $ | 4,274,221 | | | (31.4 | ) |
| Non-casino revenues | 1,143,464 | | | | 1,159,440 | | | | (1.4 | ) |
This increase in non-casino revenues as a percentage of total net revenues reflects performance of non-gaming amenities, such as Las Vegas nightclubs and continued high occupancy and use of our facilities, in contrast to the decline in VIP gaming revenue in Macau.
The decline was primarily due to the continued weak gaming environment affecting our Macau Operations, which experienced a year-over-year decrease in casino revenues of 35.5% from $3.59 billion to $2.31 billion.
Our VIP gaming operations drove the decline with $57.92 billion in VIP turnover for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $108.08 billion for the same period of 2014.
In addition, our Macau Operations' mass market gaming contributed to the decline with a 12.0% decrease in table drop combined with a reduction in table games win percentage of 1.9 percentage points.
Our VIP tables decreased from 248 as of December 31, 2014 to 190 as of December 31, 2015, based on the operating environment and customer demand.

Based on our borrowings as of December 31, [removed: 2016,] [added: 2017,] an assumed [removed: 1%] [added: 100 basis point] change in the variable rates would cause our annual interest cost to change by [removed: $34.6] [added: $33.0] million.

Interest Rate Swap Information
We have entered into floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements relating to certain of our floating-rate debt facilities.
We measure the fair value of our interest rate swaps on a recurring basis.
Changes in the fair values of our interest rate swaps for each reporting period recorded are, and will continue to be, recognized as a change in interest rate swap fair value in our Consolidated Statements of Income, as the swaps do not qualify for hedge accounting.
We currently have three interest rate swap agreements intended to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under our Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.
Under two of the swap agreements, we pay a fixed interest rate (excluding the applicable interest margin) of 0.73% on notional amounts corresponding to borrowings of HK$3.95 billion (approximately $509.4 million) in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable HIBOR at the time of payment.
These interest rate swaps fix the all-in interest rate on such amounts at 2.23% to 2.98%.
These interest rate swap agreements mature in July 2017.
Under the third swap agreement, we pay a fixed interest rate (excluding the applicable interest margin) of 0.68% on notional amounts corresponding to borrowings of $243.8 million in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable rate based on the applicable LIBOR at the time of payment.
This interest rate swap fixes the all-in interest rate on such amounts at 2.18% to 2.93%.
This interest rate swap agreement matures in July 2017.
As of December 31, 2016, interest rate swaps of $1.1 million were included in prepaid expenses and other in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of December 31, 2015, interest rate swaps of $0.7 million were included in other assets and $0.1 million were included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The fair value approximates the amount we would pay or receive if these contracts were settled at the respective valuation dates.
Fair value is estimated based upon current, and predictions of future, interest rate levels along a yield curve, the remaining duration of the instruments and other market conditions, and therefore, is subject to significant estimation and a high degree of variability of fluctuation between periods.
We adjust this amount by applying a non-performance valuation, considering our creditworthiness or the creditworthiness of our counterparties at each settlement date, as applicable.
Other Interest Rate Swap Information
The following table provides information about our interest rate swaps, by contractual maturity dates, as of December 31, 2016, using estimated future LIBOR and HIBOR rates based upon implied forward rates in the yield curve.
The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is our reporting currency:
| | | Years Ending December 31, | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Expected Maturity Date | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| Average receive rate | | 0.95 | | % | | — | | % | | — | | % | | — | | % | | — | | % | | — | | % | | 0.95 | | % |
We do not use derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
As of December 31, 2016, approximately 66.5% of our debt was based on fixed rates, including the notional amounts related to interest rate swaps.
We manage exposure to foreign currency risks associated with future scheduled interest payments through the use of foreign currency forward contracts.
These contracts involve the exchange of one currency for a second currency at a future date and are with a counter party, which is a major international financial institution.

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update that changes the classification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows.
The effective date for this guidance is for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal periods and early application is permitted.
The new guidance should be adopted on a retrospective basis.
An entity should also recognize excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period.
In regard to forfeitures, the entity may make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur.
The effective date for this guidance is for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal periods and early application is permitted.
In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that changes the accounting for leases and requires expanded disclosures about leasing activities.
The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted.
The effective date for this guidance is for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.
