Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Market Information and Dividend Policy

Our outstanding common stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "WYNN."

On May 6, 2020, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had suspended its quarterly dividend program due to the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the Company has not paid any dividends since the first fiscal quarter of 2020. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, working capital and capital expenditure requirements, contractual restrictions (including under the agreements governing our debt facilities) and other factors that our Board may deem relevant at that time.

Holders

There were approximately 166 holders of record of our common stock as of February 14, 2023. This number does not include an estimate of the indeterminate number of beneficial holders whose shares may be held by brokerage firms and clearing agencies.
