MGM RESORTS INTERNATIONAL AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Organization. MGM Resorts International (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that acts largely as a holding company and, through subsidiaries, owns and operates casino resorts.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company owns and operates the following integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada: Bellagio, MGM Grand Las Vegas, The Mirage, Mandalay Bay, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM and Excalibur. Operations at MGM Grand Las Vegas include management of The Signature at MGM Grand Las Vegas. The Company owns, along with local investors, and operates MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan, MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland, and MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Company also owns and operates Borgata located on Renaissance Pointe in the Marina area of Atlantic City, New Jersey, Empire City in Yonkers, New York, MGM Northfield Park in Northfield Park, Ohio, and the following resorts in Mississippi: Beau Rivage in Biloxi and Gold Strike in Tunica. Additionally, the Company owns and operates The Park, a dining and entertainment district located between New York-New York and Park MGM, Shadow Creek, an exclusive world-class golf course located approximately ten miles north of its Las Vegas Strip Resorts, and Fallen Oak golf course in Saucier, Mississippi.
MGM Growth Properties LLC (“MGP”), a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, is organized as an umbrella partnership REIT (commonly referred to as an UPREIT) structure in which substantially all of its assets are owned by and substantially all of its businesses are conducted through MGM Growth Properties Operating Partnership LP (the “Operating Partnership”). MGP has two classes of authorized and outstanding voting common shares (collectively, the “shares”): Class A shares and a single Class B share. The Company owns MGP’s Class B share, which does not provide its holder any rights to profits or losses or any rights to receive distributions from operations of MGP or upon liquidation or winding up of MGP. MGP’s Class A shareholders are entitled to one vote per share, while the Company, as the owner of the Class B share, is entitled to an amount of votes representing a majority of the total voting power of MGP’s shares so long as the Company and its controlled affiliates’ (excluding MGP) aggregate beneficial ownership of the combined economic interests in MGP and the Operating Partnership does not fall below 30%. The Company and MGP each hold Operating Partnership units representing limited partner interests in the Operating Partnership. The general partner of the Operating Partnership is a wholly owned subsidiary of MGP. The Operating Partnership units held by the Company are exchangeable into Class A shares of MGP on a one-to-one basis, or cash at the Fair Market Value of a Class A share (as defined in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement). The determination of settlement method is at the option of MGP’s independent conflicts committee. As of June 30, 2021, the Company owned 41.6% of the Operating Partnership units, and MGP held the remaining 58.4% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership.
Pursuant to a master lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, the Company leases the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor, and MGM Northfield Park. Pursuant to a lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a venture that is 5% owned by such subsidiary and 95% owned by a subsidiary of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“BREIT”, and such venture, the “Bellagio BREIT Venture”), the Company leases the real estate assets of Bellagio. Additionally, pursuant to a lease agreement between a subsidiary of the Company and a venture that is 50.1% owned by a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership and 49.9% by a subsidiary of BREIT (such venture, the “MGP BREIT Venture”), the Company leases the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion of the leases.
On May 11, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from the Company and MGM Springfield will be added to the MGP master lease between the Company and MGP through which MGP will lease the real property back to a subsidiary of the Company. Refer to Note 11 for additional information.
On August 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with VICI Properties, Inc. (“VICI”) and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction (such transaction, the “VICI Transaction”). Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and the Company will receive 1.366 units of the new VICI operating partnership (“VICI OP”) in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit held by the Company. The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in the VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that is held by the Company will be cancelled.
7
As part of the transaction, the Company will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The new master lease will have an initial term of 25 years, with three ten-year renewals, and initial annual rent of $860 million, escalating annually at a rate of 2.0% per annum for the first ten years and thereafter equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year subject to a cap of 3%. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders.
The Company has an approximate 56% controlling interest in MGM China Holdings Limited (together with its subsidiaries, “MGM China”), which owns MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. (“MGM Grand Paradise”). MGM Grand Paradise owns and operates the MGM Macau and MGM Cotai, two integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Macau, as well as the related gaming subconcession and land concessions.
The Company owns 50% of and manages CityCenter Holdings, LLC (“CityCenter”), located between Bellagio and Park MGM. The other 50% of CityCenter is owned by Infinity World Development Corp (“Infinity World”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dubai World, a Dubai, United Arab Emirates government decree entity. CityCenter consists of Aria, an integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resort; and Vdara, a luxury condominium-hotel. Refer to Note 3 for additional information on this investment in unconsolidated affiliate.
On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company will purchase the 50% ownership interest in CityCenter held by Infinity World for cash consideration of $2.125 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions. Upon close of the transaction, the Company will own 100% of CityCenter and, accordingly, will consolidate CityCenter in its financial statements.
On June 30, 2021, the Company also entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fund managed by Blackstone Group Inc. will acquire the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara for cash consideration of $3.89 billion and lease the properties back to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. The Aria and Vdara lease will have an initial term of 30 years with three subsequent ten-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The initial term of the lease provides for an initial annual cash rent of $215 million with a fixed 2% escalator for the first fifteen years, and thereafter, an escalator equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year, subject to a cap of 3%. Additionally, the lease will require the Company to spend a specified percentage of net revenues over a rolling five-year period at the property on capital expenditures and for the Company to comply with certain financial covenants, which, if not met, would require the Company to maintain cash security or a letter of credit in favor of the landlord in an amount equal to rent for the succeeding one-year period. The Company will provide a guarantee of the tenant’s obligations under the lease. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions, which include the requisite closing of the equity interest purchase of CityCenter, discussed above.
The Company owns 50% of BetMGM LLC (“BetMGM”), which provides online sports betting and iGaming in certain jurisdictions in the United States. The other 50% of BetMGM is owned by Entain plc.
The Company has three reportable segments: Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and MGM China. See Note 10 for additional information about the Company’s segments.
Financial Impact of COVID-19. The spread of the novel 2019 coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and the Company expects will continue to have, a significant impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in 2021 and potentially thereafter. In March 2020, all of the Company’s domestic properties were temporarily closed pursuant to state and local government restrictions imposed as a result of COVID-19. Throughout the second and third quarters of 2020, all of the Company’s properties that were temporarily closed re-opened to the public, but continued to operate without certain amenities and subject to certain occupancy limitations, with restrictions varying by jurisdiction and with further temporary re-closures and re-openings occurring for the Company’s properties or portions thereof into the first quarter of 2021. Upon re-opening of the properties, the Company implemented certain measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including limitations on the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and on the number of seats at each table game, as well as slot machine spacing, temperature checks, mask protection, limitations on restaurant capacity, entertainment events and conventions as well as other measures to enforce social distancing.
Beginning in the latter part of the first quarter of 2021 and continuing into the second quarter of 2021, the Company’s domestic jurisdictions eased and removed prior operating restrictions, including capacity and occupancy limits as well as social distancing policies. However, certain operations and amenities are limited or constrained due to available staffing and/or mid-week visitation levels, and in July 2021, certain jurisdictions reinstated mask protection guidelines as a result of the emergence and spread of certain COVID-19 variants.
Although all of the Company’s properties have re-opened, in light of the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, including the emergence and spread of COVID-19 variants, the properties may be subject to temporary, complete or partial shutdowns in the future. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether jurisdictions, states or the federal government will adopt similar or more restrictive measures in the future than in the past, including stay-at-home orders or the temporary closure of all or a portion of the Company’s properties, and are unable to predict the length of time it will take for the properties to fully return to normal operations.
8
In Macau, following a temporary closure of the Company’s properties on February 5, 2020, operations resumed on February 20, 2020, subject to certain health safeguards, such as limiting the number of seats available at each table game, slot machine spacing, reduced operating hours at a number of restaurants and bars, temperature checks, and mask protection. Although the issuance of tourist visas (including the individual visit scheme) for residents of Zhuhai, Guangdong Province and all other provinces in mainland China to travel to Macau resumed on August 12, 2020, August 26, 2020 and September 23, 2020, respectively, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau, Hong Kong and mainland China remain in place (including the temporary suspension of ferry services from Hong Kong to Macau, a negative nucleic acid test result, and mandatory quarantine requirements for visitors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and bans on entry or enhanced quarantine requirements on other visitors into Macau), which have significantly impacted visitation to the Company’s Macau properties. On August 3, 2021, four new COVID-19 cases were reported in Macau, the first of such cases since the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. As a result, the Macau government declared a state of immediate prevention and cancelled or suspended certain events and closed certain entertainment and leisure facilities throughout Macau, however gaming and hotel operations have remained open. On August 4, 2021, mass mandatory nucleic acid testing was imposed in Macau and the testing process is expected to take three days to complete. It is uncertain whether further closures, including the closure of the Company’s properties, or travel restrictions to Macau will be implemented based on the outcome of the test results.
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 (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2020 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
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”). A VIE is an entity in which either (i) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the entity. The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary. For these VIEs, the Company records a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets. 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.
Management has determined that MGP is a VIE because the Class A equity investors as a group lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of MGP and consolidates MGP because (i) its ownership of MGP’s single Class B share entitles it to a majority of the total voting power of MGP’s shares, and (ii) the exchangeable nature of the Operating Partnership units owned provide the Company the right to receive benefits from MGP that could potentially be significant to MGP. The Company has recorded MGP’s ownership interest in the Operating Partnership as noncontrolling interest in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2021, on a consolidated basis MGP had total assets of $10.1 billion, primarily related to its real estate investments, and total liabilities of $5.0 billion, primarily related to its indebtedness.
Management has determined that Bellagio BREIT Venture is a VIE because the equity holders as a group lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of Bellagio BREIT Venture and, accordingly, does not consolidate the venture, because the Company does not have power to direct the activities that could potentially be significant to the venture; BREIT, as the managing member, has such power. The Company has recorded its 5% ownership interest in Bellagio BREIT Venture as an investment in unconsolidated affiliates in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, for which such amount was $59 million as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Bellagio BREIT Venture is equal to the carrying value of its investment, assuming no future capital funding requirements, plus the exposure to loss resulting from the Company’s guarantee of the debt of Bellagio BREIT Venture, which guarantee is immaterial as of June 30, 2021, as further discussed in Note 7.
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
9
voting interest model and the Company has significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of the entity, the Company accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as the Company’s investments in CityCenter, MGP BREIT Venture, and BetMGM, which do not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entities are 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 entities, as defined in ASC 810.
For equity interests in entities in which the Company does not have significant influence, the Company records its equity investment under ASC 321 and reflects such investments within “Other long-term assets, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a gain of $86 million within “Other, net” on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations related primarily to the change in measurement of an equity instrument that previously qualified for the measurement alternative under ASC 321, which was discontinued upon the equity interest having a readily determinable fair value as a result of becoming exchange traded. The fair value of such equity investment was $124 million as of June 30, 2021.
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 in 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 observable inputs for similar assets; 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 under ASC 321; |
|
• |
Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for its long-term debt fair value disclosures. See Note 4; and |
|
• |
Level 2 inputs when measuring the Operating Partnership’s fair value of its interest rate swaps. See Note 4. |
Revenue recognition. The Company’s revenue from contracts with customers consists of casino wagers transactions, hotel room sales, food and beverage transactions, entertainment shows, and retail transactions.
For casino wager transactions that include incentives earned by customers under the Company’s loyalty programs, the Company allocates a portion of net win based upon the standalone selling price of such incentive (less estimated breakage). This allocation is deferred and recognized as revenue when the customer redeems the incentive. When redeemed, revenue is recognized in the department that provides the goods or service. Redemption of loyalty incentives at third party outlets are deducted from the loyalty liability and amounts owed are paid to the third party, with any discount received recorded as other revenue. After allocating revenue to other goods and services provided as part of casino wager transactions, the Company records the residual amount to casino revenue.
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, as discussed above, 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 Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The following table summarizes the activity related to contract and contract-related liabilities:

Revenue by source. The Company presents the revenue earned disaggregated by the type or nature of the good or service (casino, room, food and beverage, and entertainment, retail and other) and by relevant geographic region within Note 10.
10
Leases. Refer to Note 6 for discussion of 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. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $11 million and $16 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively, and $20 million and $36 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue for the same such periods, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $5 million and $15 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, respectively, and $14 million and $33 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.

Debt due within one year of the June 30, 2021 balance sheet was classified as long-term as the Company had both the intent and ability to refinance current maturities on a long-term basis under its revolving credit facilities.

In addition, in connection with the February 2021 amendment, the Company agreed to an increase of the liquidity test such that the Company’s borrower group (as defined in the credit agreement) is required to maintain a minimum liquidity level of not less than $1.0 billion (including unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and availability under the revolving credit facility), tested at the end of each month during the covenant relief period.
12

Interest rate swaps in a current liability position are recorded within “Other accrued expenses” and those in a long-term liability position are recorded within “Other long-term liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets.

At June 30, 2021, $227 million was drawn on the MGM China first revolving credit facility and the weighted average interest rate was 2.84%.
The MGM China first 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 February 2021, MGM China amended its credit agreement to provide for a waiver of its maximum leverage ratio and its minimum interest coverage ratio through the fourth quarter of 2022. MGM China was in compliance with its applicable MGM China first revolving credit facility covenants at June 30, 2021.
MGM China second revolving credit facility.

At June 30, 2021, no amounts were drawn on the MGM China second revolving credit facility.
The MGM China second 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 beginning in the third quarter of 2021.

NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES
For interim income tax reporting the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies it to its year-to-date ordinary income. The 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. The Company’s effective income tax rate was a provision of 27.8% on income before income taxes and a benefit of 19.6% on loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to benefits of 22.4% and 2.9% on loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets, net of applicable reserves, related to net operating losses, tax credit carryforwards and certain temporary differences. The Company recognizes future tax benefits to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not. Otherwise, a valuation allowance is applied.
The Company decreased its valuation allowance for its foreign tax credits (“FTCs”) by $2 million and $5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, with a corresponding increase to benefit for income taxes. The Company's FTCs are attributable to the Macau Special Gaming Tax, which is 35% of gross gaming revenue in Macau. Significant judgment is required in assessing the need for a valuation allowance and future changes to assumptions used in this assessment could result in material changes in the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact on the provision for income taxes in the period including such change.
13
MGM Grand Paradise accepted the terms of an extension of its annual fee arrangement on July 26, 2021. The extension covers the distributions of profits earned for the period of April 1, 2020 through June 26, 2022. The agreement with the Macau government allows MGM Grand Paradise to settle the 12% complementary tax that would otherwise be due by its shareholder, MGM China, on distributions of its gaming profits by paying a flat annual fee regardless of the amount of distributable dividends. The agreement requires payments of approximately $1.4 million for the period April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, $1.9 million for January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, and $0.9 million for the period January 1, 2022 through June 26, 2022. No amounts have been accrued for the 12% complementary tax on distributions of gaming profits earned after March 31, 2020 through the period ending June 30, 2021 since MGM Grand Paradise generated losses and the extension of the annual fee arrangement is not effective during this period of time. The Company will accrue income tax expense for amounts due under the extension beginning in the period the extension is executed.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company reached a settlement with the IRS Appeals Office on the examination of its 2014 U.S. consolidated federal income tax return. No cash tax payments were due as a result of the settlement. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, one of the Company's subsidiaries, Marina District Development Company, LLC, closed an examination in the state of New Jersey for tax years 2015 through 2018 with no change in tax due. As a result of the federal and New Jersey audit closures, the Company reversed $20 million and $30 million of unrecognized tax benefits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
NOTE 6 — LEASES
The Company leases the land underlying certain of its properties, real estate, and various equipment under operating and, to a lesser extent, finance lease arrangements. The master lease agreement with MGP is eliminated in consolidation and, accordingly is not included within the disclosures below; refer to Note 11 for further discussion of the master lease with MGP.
Bellagio real estate assets. The Bellagio lease has an initial term of 30 years that began on November 15, 2019, with two subsequent ten-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The initial term of the lease provides for a fixed 2% escalator to rent for the first ten years and, thereafter, an escalator equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year, subject to a cap of 3% during the 11th through 20th years and 4% thereafter. As a result of the fixed 2% escalator that went into effect on December 1, 2020 in connection with the commencement of the second lease year, annual cash rent payments increased to $250 million. The Company was in compliance with its applicable lease covenants as of June 30, 2021.
Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas real estate assets. The Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas lease has an initial term of 30 years that began on February 14, 2020, with two subsequent ten-year renewal periods, exercisable at the Company’s option. The initial term of the lease provides for a fixed 2% escalator to rent for the first fifteen years and, thereafter, an escalator equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year, subject to a cap of 3%. As a result of the fixed 2% escalator that went into effect on March 1, 2021 in connection with the commencement of the second lease year, annual cash rent payments increased to $298 million.

MGM China bank guarantee. In connection with the extension of the expiration of the gaming subconcession to June 2022, MGM Grand Paradise provided a bank guarantee to the government of Macau in May 2019 to warrant the fulfillment of an existing commitment of labor liabilities upon the expiration of the gaming subconcession in June 2022. The amount of the bank guarantee was approximately $103 million as of June 30, 2021 when giving effect to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation.
Bellagio BREIT Venture 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 Bellagio BREIT Venture, which 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 Bellagio owned by Bellagio BREIT Venture, and the debt obligation. This guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.
MGP BREIT Venture shortfall guarantee. The Company provides a shortfall guarantee of the $3.0 billion principal amount of indebtedness (and any interest accrued and unpaid thereon) of MGP BREIT Venture, which has an initial term of twelve years, maturing in 2032, with an anticipated repayment date of March 2030. 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 Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas, owned by MGP BREIT Venture, and the debt obligation. This guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.
MGP BREIT Venture bad acts guarantee. The Operating Partnership provides a guarantee for the losses incurred by the lenders of the indebtedness of the MGP BREIT Venture arising out of certain bad acts by the Operating Partnership, its venture partner, or the venture, such as fraud or willful misconduct, based on the party’s percentage ownership of the MGP BREIT Venture. This guarantee is capped at 10% of the principal amount outstanding at the time of the loss. The Operating Partnership and its venture partner have separately indemnified each other for the other party’s share of the overall liability exposure, if at fault. The guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.

NOTE 9 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Noncontrolling interest ownership transactions
MGP Class A share issuance – March 2021. On March 15, 2021, MGP completed an offering of 22 million of its Class A shares, the proceeds of which were used to partially satisfy MGP’s obligations pursuant to the notice of redemption delivered by certain MGM subsidiaries, discussed below. Subsequent to MGP’s Class A share issuance and the redemption of Operating Partnership units, discussed below, the Company indirectly owned 42.1% of the partnership units in the Operating Partnership.
Redemption of Operating Partnership units – March 2021. In March 2021, subsidiaries of the Company delivered a notice of redemption to MGP covering approximately 37 million Operating Partnership units that they held in accordance with the terms of the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement. In accordance with the terms of such agreement, upon receipt of the notice of redemption, MGP formed a conflicts committee to determine the mix of consideration that it would provide for the Operating Partnership units. The conflicts committee determined that MGP would redeem approximately 15 million Operating Partnership units for cash (with such Operating Partnership units retired upon redemption) and would satisfy its remaining obligation under that notice covering the remaining 22 million Operating Partnership units using the proceeds, net of the underwriters’ discount, of MGP’s Class A offering, for aggregate cash proceeds received by the Company of approximately $1.2 billion. The Company adjusted the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests for the change in noncontrolling interests’ ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership’s net assets, with offsetting adjustments to capital in excess of par value and accumulated other comprehensive loss. Subsequent to the collective transactions, the Company indirectly owned 42.1% of the partnership units in the Operating Partnership.
MGP Class A share issuances – At-the-Market (“ATM”) program. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, MGP issued approximately 3 million Class A shares under its ATM program. In connection with the issuances, the Operating Partnership issued approximately 3 million Operating Partnership units to MGP. The Company adjusted the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests for the change in noncontrolling interests’ ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership’s net assets, with offsetting adjustments to capital in excess of par value and accumulated other comprehensive income. Subsequent to the collective issuances, the Company indirectly owned 41.6% of the partnership units in the Operating Partnership.
Other equity activity

MGM Resorts International stock repurchase program. In February 2020, upon substantial completion of the May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $3.0 billion stock repurchase program. Under each stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated agreements. Repurchases of common stock may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit common stock to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The timing, volume and nature of stock repurchases will be at the sole discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws, and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased approximately 6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $39.48 per share for an aggregate amount of $220 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased approximately 9 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $38.90 per share for an aggregate amount of $340 million. Repurchased shares were retired. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company completed its May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program and the remaining availability under the February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase program was $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2021.
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 7 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $38.72 per share for an aggregate amount of $275 million. Repurchased shares will be retired.

NOTE 10 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s management views each of its casino resorts as an operating segment. Operating segments are aggregated 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 has aggregated its operating segments into the following reportable segments: Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and MGM China.
Las Vegas Strip Resorts. Las Vegas Strip Resorts consists of the following casino resorts: Bellagio, MGM Grand Las Vegas (including The Signature), Mandalay Bay (including Delano and Four Seasons), The Mirage, 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 resorts: MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan; Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi; Gold Strike Tunica in Tunica, 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.
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.
Adjusted Property 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. Adjusted Property EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, gain on REIT transactions, net, restructuring costs (which represents costs related to severance, accelerated stock compensation expense, and consulting fees directly related to the operating model component of the MGM 2020 Plan), rent expense associated with triple-net operating and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, and property transactions, net, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment, and rent expense related to the master lease with MGP that eliminates in consolidation.

NOTE 11 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
MGP
As further described in Note 1, pursuant to the master lease with MGP, the Company leases the real estate assets of The Mirage, Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM, Excalibur, The Park, Gold Strike Tunica, MGM Grand Detroit, Beau Rivage, Borgata, Empire City, MGM National Harbor and MGM Northfield Park from MGP.
The annual rent payments under the MGP master lease for the sixth lease year, which commenced on April 1, 2021, increased to $843 million from $828 million, as a result of the fifth 2.0% fixed annual rent escalator that went into effect on April 1, 2021.
In March 2021, the Company delivered a notice of redemption covering approximately 37 million Operating Partnership units that it held which was satisfied with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. Refer to Note 9 for further discussion of such redemption.
In May 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from the Company for $400 million of cash consideration. MGM Springfield will be added to the master lease between the Company and MGP. Following the closing of the transaction, the annual rent payment to MGP will increase by $30 million, $27 million of which will be fixed and contractually grow at 2% per year with escalators subject to the tenant meeting an adjusted net revenue to rent ratio. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, upon receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Final regulatory approvals, which are not necessary for the transaction to close, are expected to be received within nine to twelve months following the interim regulatory approval. Until final regulatory approvals are obtained, the parties will be subject to a trust agreement, which will provide for the property to go into a trust (or, at the Company’s option, be returned to the Company) during the interim period in the event that the regulator finds reasonable cause to believe that MGP may not be found suitable. The property will then remain in trust until a final determination regarding MGP’s suitability is made.
All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the MGP master lease, have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidation of MGP. The public ownership of MGP’s Class A shares is recognized as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As further described in Note 1, in August 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with VICI and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP in a stock-for-stock transaction. Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each Class A share of MGP and the Company will receive VICI OP units in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit that the Company holds. The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of the Company’s VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with the Company retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that is held by the Company will be cancelled. As part of the transaction, the Company will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders.
Bellagio BREIT Venture
The Company has a 5% ownership interest in the Bellagio BREIT Venture, which owns the real estate assets of Bellagio and leases such assets to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. Refer to Note 6 for further information related to the Bellagio lease.
MGP BREIT Venture
MGP has a 50.1% ownership interest in the MGP BREIT Venture, which owns the real estate assets of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas and leases such assets to a subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a lease agreement. Refer to Note 6 for further information related to the Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas lease.

Description of our business and key performance indicators
Our primary business is the ownership and operation of casino resorts which offer gaming, hotel, convention, dining, entertainment, retail and other resort amenities. We own or invest in several of the finest casino resorts in the world and we continually reinvest in our resorts to maintain our competitive advantage. Most of our revenue is cash-based, through customers wagering with cash or paying for non-gaming services with cash or credit cards. We rely heavily on the ability of our resorts to generate operating cash flow to fund capital expenditures, provide excess cash flow for future development, repay debt financings, and return capital to our shareholders. We make significant investments in our resorts through newly remodeled hotel rooms, restaurants, entertainment and nightlife offerings, as well as other new features and amenities.
Financial Impact of COVID-19
The spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in 2021 and potentially thereafter. In March 2020, all of our domestic properties were temporarily closed pursuant to state and local government restrictions imposed as a result of COVID-19. Throughout the second and third quarters of 2020 all of our properties that were temporarily closed re-opened to the public, but continue to operate without certain amenities and subject to certain occupancy limitations, with restrictions varying by jurisdiction and with further temporary re-closures and re-openings occurring for our properties or portions thereof into the first quarter of 2021. Upon re-opening of the properties, we implemented certain measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including limitations on the number of gaming tables allowed to operate and on the number of seats at each table game, as well as slot machine spacing, temperature checks, mask protection, limitations on restaurant capacity, entertainment events and conventions as well as other measures to enforce social distancing.
Beginning in the latter part of the first quarter of 2021 and continuing into the second quarter of 2021, our domestic jurisdictions eased and removed prior operating restrictions, including capacity and occupancy limits as well as social distancing policies. However, certain operations and amenities are limited or constrained due to available staffing and/or mid-week visitation levels, and in July 2021, certain jurisdictions reinstated mask protection guidelines as a result of the emergence and spread of certain COVID-19 variants.
Although all of our properties have re-opened, in light of the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, including the emergence and spread of COVID-19 variants, the properties may be subject to temporary, complete or partial shutdowns in the future. At this time, we cannot predict whether jurisdictions, states or the federal government will adopt similar or more restrictive measures in the future than in the past, including stay-at-home orders or the temporary closure of all or a portion of our properties, and are unable to predict the length of time it will take for our properties to fully return to normal operations.
In Macau, following a temporary closure of our properties on February 5, 2020, operations resumed on February 20, 2020, subject to certain health safeguards, such as limiting the number of seats available at each table game, slot machine spacing, reduced operating hours at a number of restaurants and bars, temperature checks, and mask protection. Although the issuance of tourist visas (including the individual visit scheme “IVS”) for residents of Zhuhai, Guangdong Province and all other provinces in mainland China to travel to Macau resumed on August 12, 2020, August 26, 2020 and September 23, 2020, respectively, several travel and entry restrictions in Macau, Hong Kong and mainland China remain in place (including the temporary suspension of ferry services from Hong Kong to Macau, a negative nucleic acid test result, and mandatory quarantine requirements for visitors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and bans on entry or enhanced quarantine requirements on other visitors into Macau), which have significantly impacted visitation to our Macau properties. On August 3, 2021, four new COVID-19 cases were reported in Macau, the first of such cases since the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. As a result, the Macau government declared a state of immediate prevention and cancelled or suspended certain events and closed certain entertainment and leisure facilities throughout Macau, however gaming and hotel operations have remained open. On August 4, 2021, mass mandatory nucleic acid testing was imposed in Macau and the testing process is expected to take three days to complete. It is uncertain whether further closures, including the closure of our properties, or travel restrictions to Macau will be implemented based on the outcome of the test results.

Other Developments
In March 2021, we delivered a notice of redemption to MGP covering approximately 37 million Operating Partnership units that we held which was satisfied with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion. See Note 9 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction, which eliminates in consolidation.
In May 2021, we entered into an agreement with MGP whereby MGP will acquire the real estate assets of MGM Springfield from us for $400 million of cash consideration. MGM Springfield will be added to the master lease between us and MGP. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, upon receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. See Note 1 and Note 11 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction. All intercompany transactions, including transactions under the master lease with MGP, eliminate in consolidation.
In June 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the 50% interest in CityCenter held by Infinity World Development Corp ("Infinity World") for cash consideration of $2.125 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions. See Note 1 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction.
In June 2021, we also entered into an agreement pursuant to which a fund managed by Blackstone Group Inc. will acquire the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara from us for cash consideration of $3.89 billion and lease the properties back to us pursuant to a lease agreement. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to certain closing conditions, which include the requisite closing of the equity interest purchase of CityCenter, discussed above. See Note 1 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information regarding this transaction.
In August 2021, we entered into an agreement with VICI and MGP whereby VICI will acquire MGP. Pursuant to the agreement, MGP Class A shareholders will receive 1.366 shares of newly issued VICI stock in exchange for each MGP Class A share outstanding and we will receive 1.366 units of the new VICI operating partnership (“VICI OP”) in exchange for each Operating Partnership unit we hold. The fixed exchange ratio represents an agreed upon price of $43 per share of MGP Class A share to the five-day volume weighted average price of VICI stock as of the close of business on July 30, 2021. Subsequent to the exchange, VICI OP will redeem the majority of our VICI OP units for cash consideration of $4.4 billion, with us retaining an approximate $370 million ownership interest in the VICI OP (based upon the close price of VICI stock as of August 3, 2021). MGP’s Class B share that we hold will be cancelled.
As part of the transaction, we will enter into an amended and restated master lease with VICI. The new master lease will have an initial term of 25 years, with three ten-year renewals, and initial annual rent of $860 million, escalating annually at a rate of 2.0% per annum for the first ten years and thereafter equal to the greater of 2% and the CPI increase during the prior year subject to a cap of 3%. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, and approval by VICI stockholders. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors — The VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction each remains subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and any anticipated benefits from such transactions may take longer to realize than expected or may not be realized at all.”
Key Performance Indicators
Key performance indicators related to gaming and hotel revenue are:
|
• |
Gaming revenue indicators: table games drop and slots handle (volume indicators); “win” or “hold” percentage, which is not fully controllable by us. Historically, our normal table games hold percentage at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts is in the range of 25.0% to 35.0% of table games drop for Baccarat and 19.0% to 23.0% for non-Baccarat however, reduced gaming volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could cause volatility in our hold percentages; 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. Rooms that were out of service during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of property closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic were excluded from the available room count when calculating hotel occupancy and REVPAR. |
23
Additional key performance indicators at MGM China are:
|
• |
Gaming revenue indicators - MGM China utilizes “turnover,” which is the sum of nonnegotiable chip wagers won by MGM China calculated as nonnegotiable chips purchased plus nonnegotiable chips exchanged less nonnegotiable chips returned. Turnover provides a basis for measuring VIP casino win percentage. Historically, win for VIP gaming operations at MGM China is typically in the range of 2.6% to 3.3% of turnover however, reduced gaming volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could cause volatility in MGM China’s hold percentages. |

Summary Operating Results
Consolidated net revenues were $2.3 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $290 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 683%. While the current year quarter benefited from the easing of operational and capacity restrictions and an increase in travel, the prior year quarter was negatively affected by temporary property closures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts and Regional Operations due to the pandemic. At MGM China, the prior year quarter was more significantly impacted by travel and entry restrictions in Macau than in the current quarter. These factors resulted in a 566% increase in net revenues at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, an 859% increase in net revenues at our Regional Operations, and an 836% increase in net revenues at MGM China.
Consolidated operating income was $264 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to a loss of $1.0 billion in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in net revenues discussed above. In addition, income from unconsolidated affiliates in the current year quarter included a $50 million gain related to CityCenter’s sale of the Harmon land. Property transactions, net in the current year quarter included a gain of $29 million related to a reduction in the estimate of contingent consideration related to the Empire City acquisition. Property transactions, net in the prior year quarter included a $26 million other-than-temporary non-cash impairment charge on an equity method investment. Corporate expense decreased $46 million compared to the prior year quarter. The current year quarter included $6 million of transaction costs, while the prior year quarter included $49 million of October 1 litigation settlement expense, $5 million of restructuring costs, and $9 million of corporate initiatives costs. General and administrative expense increased $117 million in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the prior year quarter reflecting the temporary property closures due to the pandemic, partially offset by realized benefits from our cost savings initiatives at our domestic properties.
Consolidated net revenues were $3.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.5 billion in the prior year period, an increase of 54%. While the prior year was negatively affected by temporary property closures for a portion of the year due to the pandemic, the current year period benefited from the easing of operational and capacity restrictions and an increase in travel primarily within the current year quarter. Additionally, at MGM China, the prior year period was negatively affected by both property closures in the first quarter and more significantly impacted by travel and entry restrictions in Macau than in the current year period. As a result, net revenues at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts increased 21%, Regional Operations increased 92%, and MGM China increased 99%.
Consolidated operating income was $17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $216 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 92%, primarily due to the prior year period benefiting from a $1.5 billion gain related to the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay real estate transaction in February 2020, partially offset by a current year period increase in net revenues discussed above. In addition, corporate expense decreased $111 million compared to the prior year period. Corporate expense in the current year period included $8 million of transaction costs, while the prior year period included $49 million of October 1 litigation settlement expense, $44 million of CEO transition expense, $5 million of restructuring costs, and $13 million of corporate initiatives costs. Included in the CEO transition expense is $20 million of stock compensation expense, of which approximately $13 million related to the modification and accelerated vesting of outstanding stock compensation awards. Property transactions, net in the current year period included a gain of $29 million related to a reduction in the estimate of contingent consideration related to the Empire City acquisition. Property transactions, net in the prior year quarter included a $64 million other-than-temporary non-cash impairment charge on an equity method investment. Depreciation expense decreased $43 million compared to the prior year period due primarily to the sale of the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay real estate assets. General and administrative expense increased $89 million in the current year period compared to the prior year period due primarily to the prior year period reflecting the temporary property closures and a full period of rent expense for the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay lease in the current year, partially offset by a decrease in payroll expense due to realized benefits from our cost savings initiatives at our domestic properties.

In June, 2021, CityCenter closed the sale of its Harmon land for $80 million on which it recorded a $30 million gain. We recorded a $50 million gain, which included $15 million of our 50% share of the gain recorded by CityCenter and $35 million representing the reversal of certain basis differences.
Our share of CityCenter’s operating income, including certain basis difference adjustments, was $90 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and CityCenter’s operating loss was $39 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 due primarily to the gain related to the sale of its Harmon land in the current quarter, discussed above, and the temporary property closures in the prior year quarter.
Our share of CityCenter’s operating income, including certain basis difference adjustments, was $87 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and CityCenter’s operating loss was $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, due primarily to the gain related to on the sale of its Harmon land in the current year period, discussed above, and the temporary property closures in the prior year period.

Non-operating Results
Interest Expense
Gross interest expense was $203 million and $157 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $399 million and $315 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in gross interest expense when compared to the respective prior year periods is due primarily to the increase in average debt outstanding related to senior notes due to the issuances by us, the Operating Partnership, and MGM China in 2020 and 2021, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate of the senior notes. See Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional discussion on long-term debt and see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional discussion on issuances and repayments of long-term debt and other sources and uses of cash.
Other, net
Other income, net was $87 million and $8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The current quarter included an $86 million gain on investment which is related primarily to the change in measurement of an equity instrument that previously qualified for the measurement alternative under ASC 321, which was discontinued upon the equity interest having a readily determinable fair value as a result of becoming exchange traded, a $6 million loss on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, $5 million of foreign currency remeasurement gains primarily related to MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes, and $6 million of interest income.
Other income, net was $120 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to other expense, net of $116 million in the prior year period. The current year period included an $86 million gain on investment, discussed above, a $29 million gain on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, $1 million of foreign currency remeasurement losses primarily related to MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes, and $11 million of interest income. The prior year period included a $109 million loss incurred on the early retirement of debt related to our senior notes and the termination of our revolving facility, as well as an $18 million loss incurred on the early retirement of debt related to the Operating Partnership’s repayment of its term loan A facility and its term loan B facility and a $11 million loss on the Operating Partnership’s unhedged interest rate swaps, partially offset by an $8 million remeasurement gain on MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes, and $21 million of interest income. Refer to Note 4 for further discussion of our long-term debt.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate was a provision of 27.8% on income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a benefit of 22.4% on loss before income taxes in the prior year quarter. The differing effective tax rates resulted primarily from changes in the mix of U.S. and foreign income and losses and the increase in the foreign tax credit valuation allowance recorded in the prior year quarter that reduced the benefit recorded on loss before income taxes in such quarter.
Our effective tax rate was a benefit of 19.6% on loss before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a benefit of 2.9% on loss before income taxes in the prior year period. The effective rate for the prior year period was unfavorably impacted by tax expense recorded on the MGP BREIT Venture transaction and adjustments to valuation allowances for Macau deferred tax assets and foreign tax credits.

Reportable segment GAAP measure
“Adjusted Property EBITDAR” is our reportable segment GAAP measure, which we utilize as the primary profit measure for our reportable segments and underlying operating segments. Adjusted Property EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, gain on REIT transactions, net, restructuring costs (which represents costs related to severance, accelerated stock compensation expense, and consulting fees directly related to the operating model component of the MGM 2020 Plan), rent expense associated with triple-net operating and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, property transactions, net, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment, and rent expense related to the master lease with MGP that eliminates in consolidation. We manage capital allocation, tax planning, stock compensation, and financing decisions at the corporate level. “Adjusted Property EBITDAR margin” is Adjusted Property EBITDAR divided by related segment net revenues.
Non-GAAP measure
“Adjusted EBITDAR” is earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, gain on REIT transactions, net, CEO transition expense, October 1 litigation settlement, restructuring costs (which represents costs related to severance, accelerated stock compensation expense, and consulting fees directly related to the operating model component of the MGM 2020 Plan), gain related to CityCenter’s sale of Harmon land recorded within income from unconsolidated affiliates, rent expense associated with triple-net operating and ground leases, income from unconsolidated affiliates related to investments in real estate ventures, and property transactions, net.
Adjusted EBITDAR information is a valuation metric, should not be used as an operating metric, and is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because we believe this measure is widely used by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors as a principal basis for the valuation of gaming companies. We believe that while items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAR 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. Also, we believe excluded items may not relate specifically to current 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 resorts, 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, as discussed herein, Adjusted EBITDAR should not be viewed as a measure of overall operating performance, considered in isolation, or as an alternative to net income, because this measure is not presented on a GAAP basis and exclude certain expenses, including the rent expense associated with our triple-net operating and ground leases, and are provided for the limited purposes discussed herein.
31
Adjusted EBITDAR should not be construed as an alternative to operating income or net income, as an indicator of our performance; or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of liquidity; or as any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. We have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, taxes, real estate triple-net lease and ground lease payments, and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Adjusted EBITDAR. Also, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Adjusted EBITDAR information may calculate Adjusted EBITDAR in a different manner and such differences may be material.

Guarantor Financial Information
As of June 30, 2021, all of our principal debt arrangements are guaranteed by each of our wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facility. Our principal debt arrangements are not guaranteed by MGP, the Operating Partnership, MGM Grand Detroit, MGM National Harbor, Blue Tarp reDevelopment, LLC (the entity that owns and operates MGM Springfield), and each of their respective subsidiaries. Our foreign subsidiaries, including MGM China and its subsidiaries, are also not guarantors of our principal debt arrangements. In the event that any subsidiary is no longer a guarantor of our 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 is 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.
32
The summarized financial information of us and our guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, is presented below. Certain of our guarantor subsidiaries collectively own Operating Partnership units and each subsidiary accounts for its respective investment under the equity method within the summarized financial information presented below. These subsidiaries have also accounted for the MGP master lease as an operating lease, recording operating lease liabilities and operating ROU assets with the related rent expense of guarantor subsidiaries reflected within the summarized financial information.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
Operating activities. Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in operating income, excluding non-cash charges, but can be affected by changes in working capital, the timing of significant interest payments, tax payments or refunds, and distributions from unconsolidated affiliates. Cash provided by operating activities was $368 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to cash used in operating activities of $1.1 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change from the prior year period was due primarily to the increase in revenues discussed within the results of operations section above and additionally due to the prior year period being negatively affected by a change in working capital related to gaming and non-gaming deposits, gaming taxes and other gaming liabilities, and payroll related liabilities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Investing activities. Our investing cash flows can fluctuate significantly from year to year depending on our decisions with respect to strategic capital investments in new or existing resorts, business acquisitions or dispositions, and the timing of maintenance capital expenditures to maintain the quality of our resorts. Capital expenditures related to regular investments in our existing resorts can also vary depending on timing of larger remodel projects related to our public spaces and hotel rooms.
Cash used in investing activities was $274 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to cash provided by investing activities of $2.3 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2020. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we made $183 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below, and contributed $100 million to our unconsolidated affiliate, BetMGM LLC (“BetMGM”). In comparison, in the prior year we received $2.5 billion in net cash proceeds from the sale of the real estate of Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas, which was partially offset by $140 million in capital expenditures and a $30 million investment made in BetMGM. In the prior year period, distributions from unconsolidated affiliates included $51 million related to our share of a distribution paid by CityCenter.
33
Capital Expenditures
We made capital expenditures of $183 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, of which $42 million related to MGM China. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $33 million primarily related to construction of the south tower project at MGM Cotai and $9 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate entities of $141 million primarily relate to expenditures in information technology and room remodels.
We made capital expenditures of $140 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, of which $67 million related to MGM China. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $60 million related to construction close-out and projects at MGM Cotai and $8 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate entities of $73 million included expenditures relating to information technology, health and safety initiatives, and various room, restaurant, and entertainment venue remodels.
Financing activities. Cash provided by financing activities was $430 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2020. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net borrowings of debt of $198 million, as further discussed below, received net proceeds of $793 million from the issuance of MGP’s Class A shares, distributed $156 million to noncontrolling interest owners, and we repurchased $340 million of our common stock. In comparison, in the prior year period, we had net proceeds from the incurrence of a bridge loan facility of $1.3 billion in connection with the Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand real estate transaction, net proceeds of $525 million from MGP’s Class A share issuances, net debt borrowings of $62 million as further discussed below, repurchased $354 million of our common stock, distributed $155 million to noncontrolling interest owners, and paid $75 million in dividends to our shareholders.
Borrowings and Repayments of Long-term Debt
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net borrowings of debt of $198 million which consisted of MGM China’s March 2021 issuance of $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes due 2027 at an issue price of 99.97%, offset by $542 million of net repayments on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility and the Operating Partnership’s repayment of $10 million on its revolving credit facility. The net proceeds from MGM China’s 4.75% senior notes due 2027 issuance were used to partially repay amounts outstanding under the MGM China first revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had net proceeds from the incurrence of the bridge loan facility in connection with the MGP BREIT Venture Transaction of $1.3 billion and net debt borrowings of $62 million, which consisted of our net borrowings of $550 million on our senior credit facility, our issuance of $750 million of 6.75% senior notes, the Operating Partnership’s issuance of $800 million of 4.625% senior notes, and MGM China’s issuance of $500 million of 5.25% senior notes, partially offset by the tender of $750 million of our senior notes and corresponding $97 million of tender offer costs, the net repayment of $184 million on MGM China’s credit facility, and the net repayment of $1.5 billion on the Operating Partnership's senior credit facility using the proceeds from the $1.3 billion bridge loan facility, which was then assumed by the MGP BREIT Venture, the proceeds from MGP’s settlement of forward equity agreements, and the proceeds from the Operating Partnership’s issuance of $800 million of 4.625% senior notes.
In March 2020, with certain of the proceeds from the MGP BREIT Venture transaction, we completed cash tender offers for an aggregate amount of $750 million of our senior notes, comprised of $325 million principal amount of our outstanding 5.75% senior notes due 2025, $100 million principal amount of our outstanding 4.625% senior notes due 2026, and $325 million principal amount of our outstanding 5.5% senior notes due 2027.
In May 2020, we issued $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior notes due 2025. The proceeds were used to further increase our liquidity position.
In June 2020, the Operating Partnership issued $800 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior notes due 2025. The proceeds were used to repay borrowings on the Operating Partnership’s senior credit facility, discussed above.
In June 2020, MGM China issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.25% senior notes due 2025. The proceeds were used to partially repay amounts outstanding under the MGM China credit facility and general corporate purposes.
34
Dividends, Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest Owners and Share Repurchases
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we repurchased and retired $340 million of our common stock pursuant to our May 2018 $2.0 billion and February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase plans. As a result of those repurchases, we completed our May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program, and the remaining availability under the February 2020 $3.0 billion stock repurchase program was $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased and retired $354 million of our common stock pursuant to our May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan.
In March 2021 and June 2021, we paid dividends of $0.0025 per share, totaling $2 million, paid during the six months ended June 30, 2021. In March 2020, we paid a dividend of $0.15 per share, and in June 2020 we paid a dividend of $0.0025 per share, totaling $75 million paid during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Operating Partnership paid the following distributions to its partnership unit holders during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:
|
• |
$268 million of distributions paid in 2021, of which we received $128 million and MGP received $140 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders; and |
|
• |
$306 million of distributions paid in 2020, of which we received $190 million and MGP received $116 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders. |
Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Anticipated Uses of Cash
We require a certain amount of cash on hand to operate our resorts. 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 resorts daily into central bank accounts, and excess funds are invested overnight or are used to repay amounts drawn under our revolving credit facility. 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.
As previously discussed, the spread of COVID-19 and developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. During this time, we have remained committed to managing our expenses to strengthen our liquidity position. As of June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.6 billion, of which MGM China held $331 million and the Operating Partnership held $298 million. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balance, we currently have significant real estate assets and other holdings: we own MGM Springfield, (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in May 2021 to sell the real estate assets of MGM Springfield to MGP), a 50% interest in CityCenter in Las Vegas (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in June 2021 to acquire the 50% equity interest in CityCenter as well as the agreement to sell and lease back the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara), a 41.6% economic interest in MGP (refer to Note 1 for discussion on our agreement entered into in August 2021 regarding the VICI Transaction), and an approximate 56% interest in MGM China.
At June 30, 2021, we had $12.7 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $227 million outstanding under the $1.25 billion MGM China first revolving credit facility. No amounts were drawn on our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, the $1.35 billion Operating Partnership revolving credit facility, or the $400 million MGM China second revolving credit facility. We have no debt maturing prior to 2022.
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2021, we repurchased approximately 7 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $38.72 per share for an aggregate amount of $275 million. Repurchased shares will be retired.
We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of the year of approximately $285 million to $295 million domestically, as well as an additional $30 million to $40 million relating to CityCenter capital expenditures that are expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2021, assuming the transaction closes in the third quarter of 2021. Additionally, we have planned capital expenditures over the remainder of the year of approximately $50 million to $60 million at MGM China. As of June 30, 2021, our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months are approximately $340 million to $345 million, excluding MGP and MGM China, and approximately $735 million to $745 million on a consolidated basis. We are also currently required to make annual rent payments of $843 million under the master lease with MGP, annual rent payments of $250 million under the lease with Bellagio BREIT Venture, and annual rent payments of $298 million under the lease with MGP BREIT Venture, which leases are also subject to annual escalators.
35
In February 2021, we amended our credit facility to extend the covenant relief period provided under the previous amendment related to our financial maintenance covenants through the earlier of (x) the day immediately following the date we deliver to the administrative agent a compliance certificate with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2022 and (y) the date we deliver to the administrative agent an irrevocable notice terminating the covenant relief period, and to adjust the required leverage and interest coverage levels for the covenant when it is reimposed at the end of the waiver period. In addition, in connection with the February 2021 amendment, we agreed to an increase of the liquidity test such that our borrower group (as defined in the credit agreement) is required to maintain a minimum liquidity level of not less than $1.0 billion (including unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and availability under the revolving credit facility), tested at the end of each month during the covenant relief period.
Additionally, due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in February 2021, MGM China further amended each of its first revolving credit facility and its second revolving credit facility to provide for waivers of the maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio through the fourth quarter of 2022.
In July 2021, the Operating Partnership paid $138 million of distributions to its partnership unit holders, of which we received $57 million and MGP received $81 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders.
On August 4, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0025 per share. The dividend will be payable on September 15, 2021 to holders of record on September 10, 2021. Future determinations regarding the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our results of operations, financial condition, and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
As previously discussed, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and is continuing to cause, significant economic disruption both globally and in the United States, and continues to impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. As widespread vaccine distribution continues and operational restrictions have eased, we have seen economic recovery in some of the market segments in which we operate, as shown in our summary operating results. However, some areas continue to experience renewed outbreaks and surges in infection rates. As a result, our business segments continue to face many uncertainties and our operations remain vulnerable to reversal of these trends or other continuing negative effects caused by the pandemic. We cannot predict the degree, or duration, to which our operations will be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the effects could be material. We continue to monitor the evolving situation and guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities and may take additional actions based on their recommendations. In these circumstances, there may be developments outside our control requiring us to further adjust our operating plan, including the implementation or extension of new or existing restrictions, which may include the reinstatement of stay-at-home orders in the jurisdictions in which we operate or additional restrictions on travel and/or our business operations. Because the situation is ongoing, and because the duration and severity remain unclear, it is difficult to forecast any impacts on our future results.
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, 2020. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since year end.
Market Risk
In addition to the inherent risks associated with our normal operations, we are also exposed to additional market risks. Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Our primary exposure to market risk is 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 and by utilizing interest rate swap agreements that provide for a fixed interest payment on the Operating Partnership’s credit facility. 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. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes and do not enter into derivative transactions that would be considered speculative positions.
36
As of June 30, 2021, variable rate borrowings represented approximately 2% of our total borrowings after giving effect on the Operating Partnership’s borrowings for the currently effective interest rate swap agreements on which the Operating Partnership pays a weighted average of 1.783% on a total notional amount of $700 million. Additionally, the Operating Partnership has $900 million of notional amount of forward starting swaps that are not currently effective. The following table provides additional information about our gross long-term debt subject to changes in interest rates excluding the effect of the Operating Partnership interest rate swaps discussed above:

In addition to the risk associated with our variable interest rate debt, we are also exposed to risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, mainly related to MGM China and to our operations at MGM Macau and MGM Cotai. While recent fluctuations in exchange rates have not been significant, potential changes in policy by governments or fluctuations in the economies of the United States, China, Macau or Hong Kong could cause variability in these exchange rates. We cannot assure you that the Hong Kong dollar will continue to be pegged to the U.S. dollar or the current peg rate for the Hong Kong dollar will remain at the same level. The possible changes to the peg of the Hong Kong dollar may result in severe fluctuations in the exchange rate thereof. For U.S. dollar denominated debt incurred by MGM China, fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Hong Kong dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar could have adverse effects on our financial position and results of operations. As of June 30, 2021, a 1% weakening of the Hong Kong dollar (the functional currency of MGM China) to the U.S. dollar would result in a foreign currency transaction loss of $28 million.

Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our business, our ability to reduce expenses and otherwise maintain our liquidity position during the pandemic, our ability to generate significant cash flow, execute on ongoing and future strategic initiatives, including the development of an integrated resort in Japan and investments we make in online sports betting and iGaming, the closing of the VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction, 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, the Operating Partnership or CityCenter, our ability to achieve the benefits of our cost savings initiatives, and amounts projected to be realized as deferred tax assets. 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 global COVID-19 pandemic has continued to materially impact our business, financial results and liquidity, and such impact could worsen and last for an unknown period of time; |
|
• |
although all of our properties are open to the public, we are unable to predict the length of time it will take for our properties to fully return to normal operations or if such properties will be required to close again or be subject to operating and other restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including due to the spread of COVID-19 variants; |
|
• |
we have undertaken aggressive actions to reduce costs and improve efficiencies to mitigate losses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could negatively impact guest loyalty and our ability to attract and retain employees; |
37
|
• |
the VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction each remain subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and any anticipated benefits from such transactions may take longer to realize than expected or may not be realized at all; |
|
• |
potential litigation instituted against us, our transaction counterparties, or our respective directors challenging the VICI Transaction may prevent such transaction from becoming effective within the expected timeframe or at all; |
|
• |
our substantial indebtedness and significant financial commitments, including the fixed component of our rent payments to MGP, rent payments to the Bellagio BREIT Venture and to the MGP BREIT Venture, and guarantees we provide of the indebtedness of the Bellagio BREIT Venture and the MGP BREIT Venture could adversely affect our development options and financial results and impact our ability to satisfy our obligations; |
|
• |
current and future economic, capital and credit market conditions could adversely affect our ability to service our substantial indebtedness and significant financial commitments, including the fixed components of our rent payments, and to make planned expenditures; |
|
• |
restrictions and limitations in the agreements governing our senior credit facility and other senior indebtedness could significantly affect our ability to operate our business, as well as significantly affect our liquidity; |
|
• |
the fact that we are required to pay a significant portion of our cash flows as rent, which could adversely affect our ability to fund our operations and growth, service our indebtedness and limit our ability to react to competitive and economic changes; |
|
• |
significant competition we face with respect to destination travel locations generally and with respect to our peers in the industries in which we compete; |
|
• |
the fact that our businesses are subject to extensive regulation and the cost of compliance or failure to comply with such regulations could adversely affect our business; |
|
• |
the impact on our business of economic and market conditions in the jurisdictions in which we operate and in the locations in which our customers reside; |
|
• |
the possibility that we may not realize all of the anticipated benefits of our cost savings initiatives, including our MGM 2020 Plan, or our asset light strategy; |
|
• |
the fact that our ability to pay ongoing regular dividends is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and certain other limitations; |
|
• |
nearly all of our domestic gaming facilities are leased and could experience risks associated with leased property, including risks relating to lease termination, lease extensions, charges and our relationship with the lessor, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations; |
|
• |
financial, operational, regulatory or other potential challenges that may arise with respect to MGP, as the lessor for a significant portion of our properties, may adversely impair our operations; |
|
• |
the fact that MGP has adopted a policy under which certain transactions with us, including transactions involving consideration in excess of $25 million, must be approved in accordance with certain specified procedures; |
|
• |
restrictions on our ability to have any interest or involvement in gaming businesses in China, Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan, other than through MGM China; |
|
• |
the ability of the Macau government to terminate MGM Grand Paradise’s subconcession under certain circumstances without compensating MGM Grand Paradise, exercise its redemption right with respect to the subconcession, or refuse to grant MGM Grand Paradise an extension of the subconcession in 2022; |
|
• |
the dependence of MGM Grand Paradise upon gaming promoters for a significant portion of gaming revenues in Macau; |
38
|
• |
changes to fiscal and tax policies; |
|
• |
our ability to recognize our foreign tax credit deferred tax asset and the variability of the valuation allowance we may apply against such deferred tax asset; |
|
• |
extreme weather conditions or climate change may cause property damage or interrupt business; |
|
• |
the concentration of a significant number of our major gaming resorts on the Las Vegas Strip; |
|
• |
the fact that we extend credit to a large portion of our customers and we may not be able to collect such gaming receivables; |
|
• |
the potential occurrence of impairments to goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets or long-lived assets which could negatively affect future profits; |
|
• |
the susceptibility of leisure and business travel, especially travel by air, to global geopolitical events, such as terrorist attacks, other acts of violence, acts of war or hostility or outbreaks of infectious disease (including the COVID-19 pandemic); |
|
• |
the fact that co-investing in properties, including our investment in CityCenter and BetMGM, decreases our ability to manage risk; |
|
• |
the fact that future construction, development, or expansion projects will be subject to significant development and construction risks; |
|
• |
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 trademarks could have a negative impact on the value of our brand names and adversely affect our business; |
|
• |
the risks associated with doing business outside of the United States and the impact of any potential violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other similar anti-corruption laws; |
|
• |
risks related to pending claims that have been, or future claims that may be brought against us; |
|
• |
the fact that a significant portion of our labor force is covered by collective bargaining agreements; |
|
• |
the sensitivity of our business to energy prices and a rise in energy prices could harm our operating results; |
|
• |
the potential that failure to maintain the integrity of our computer systems and internal customer information could result in damage to our reputation and/or subject us to fines, payment of damages, lawsuits or other restrictions on our use or transfer of data; |
|
• |
the potential reputational harm as a result of increased scrutiny related to our corporate social responsibility efforts; |
|
• |
the potential failure of future efforts to expand through investments in other businesses and properties or through alliances or acquisitions, or to divest some of our properties and other assets; |
|
• |
increases in gaming taxes and fees in the jurisdictions in which we operate; and |
|
• |
the potential for conflicts of interest to arise because certain of our directors and officers are also directors of MGM China. |
39
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. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
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.

Legal Proceedings |
See discussion of legal proceedings in Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Item 1A. |
Risk Factors |
A description of certain factors that may affect our future results and risk factors is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no material changes to those factors previously disclosed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as discussed below.
The VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction each remains subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and any anticipated benefits from such transactions may take longer to realize than expected or may not be realized at all.
Each of the VICI Transaction, the CityCenter transaction and the MGM Springfield transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, which may not be satisfied within the anticipated timeframe or at all. For example, completion of the transactions remains subject to the receipt of certain gaming regulatory approvals. There can be no assurance that any required gaming approvals will be obtained, and the regulatory authorities from which approvals are required may impose conditions on the consummation of the transaction or require changes to the terms of the transaction or agreements to be entered into in connection with the transaction. Such conditions or changes and the process of obtaining regulatory approvals could have the effect of delaying or impeding the completion of the transactions, which might reduce the anticipated benefits to us of the transaction or have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The completion of the VICI Transaction is also subject to the satisfaction of additional closing conditions, including, among others, (i) receipt of approval of VICI’s shareholders, (ii) the absence of any restraining order, injunction or other judgment, order or decree from any applicable governmental authority prohibiting the consummation of the transaction, (iii) the effectiveness of the registration statement for VICI’s shares to be issued in the VICI Transaction and the authorization for listing of those shares on the New York Stock Exchange, (iv) the absence of a material adverse effect on the parties to the master transaction agreement, (v) the accuracy of each party’s representations and warranties in the master transaction agreement, subject to customary materiality standards, and (vi) compliance of each party with its respective covenants under the master transaction agreement. No assurance can be given that these or any other required conditions to closing will be satisfied. If the conditions precedent to the VICI Transaction are not satisfied, the VICI Transaction will not be completed unless such conditions are validly waived. Such conditions may jeopardize or delay the completion of the transaction or may reduce the anticipated benefits of the transaction.
Similarly, the CityCenter equity purchase and the sale leaseback of the real estate assets of Aria and Vdara are expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, but remain subject to the satisfaction of the respective closing conditions set forth under the equity purchase agreement and master transaction agreement, including, but not limited to: the receipt of necessary approvals from applicable gaming authorities for the transactions; the performance and compliance of the applicable parties with their respective covenants and agreements under the agreements; the absence of any injunctions, laws or orders promulgated by relevant courts or governmental entities preventing the relevant transactions; and, in the case of the master transaction agreement, the closing of the transactions contemplated by the equity purchase agreement with Infinity World. As a result, the possible timing of the CityCenter transactions and the likelihood of the completion such transactions are uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the CityCenter transactions will be completed on the expected terms contemplated by the equity purchase agreement and master transaction agreement, on the currently anticipated timing, or at all.
In addition, although the sale of the real estate assets of MGM Springfield to MGP is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021, the transaction is subject to the receipt of interim regulatory approvals from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the satisfaction of the other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance, however, that such interim regulatory approvals will be received, or that other closing conditions will be satisfied. Accordingly, the MGM Springfield transaction and the likelihood of the completion of such transaction also remain uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the MGM Springfield transaction will be completed on the expected terms contemplated by the agreement, on the currently anticipated timing, or at all.
If any of the transactions are not completed, or are not completed on a timely basis, our business may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed such transactions, we may be subject to additional risks, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, the following:
|
• |
we will be required to pay our costs relating to such transactions, such as legal, accounting, financial advisory and printing fees, whether or not the transactions are completed; |
|
• |
the diversion of time and resources committed by our management to matters relating to the transactions could otherwise have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities; |
|
• |
we may be subject to negative publicity or be negatively perceived by the investment or business communities as a result of the failure to consummate any or all of the transactions; |
41
|
• |
the price of our shares may decline to the extent that the current market price of our shares reflects a higher price than it otherwise would have based on the assumption that any or all of the transactions will be consummated; |
|
• |
we would have incurred significant expenses relating to such transactions that we may be unable to recover; and |
|
• |
we may be subject to litigation related to the failure to consummate the transactions or to perform our obligations under the respective transaction agreements. |
In addition, we entered into the transactions as part of our current growth strategy to pursue and execute on an asset-light business model, which involves a comprehensive review of our owned real estate assets to determine whether those assets can be monetized efficiently to allow unlocked capital to be redeployed towards balance sheet improvements, new growth opportunities and to return value to our shareholders. Even if the transactions are completed as currently anticipated, there can be no assurances that any anticipated benefits from the transactions will be realized as expected or that such benefits will be achieved within the anticipated time frame or at all. Failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of the transactions could adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows, cause dilution to our earnings per share, decrease or delay any accretive effect of such transactions and negatively impact the price of our common stock.
Potential litigation instituted against us, our transaction counterparties, or our respective directors challenging the proposed VICI Transaction may prevent such transaction from becoming effective within the expected timeframe or at all.
Potential litigation related to the VICI Transaction may result in injunctive or other relief prohibiting, delaying or otherwise adversely affecting the parties’ ability to complete the VICI Transaction. One of the conditions to the VICI Transaction under the master transaction agreement is that no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment, order or decree issued by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction prohibiting consummation of the VICI Transaction or any other transactions contemplated by the master transaction agreement shall be in effect. Accordingly, any such injunctive or other relief may prevent the VICI Transaction from becoming effective within the expected timeframe or at all. In addition, defending against such claims may be expensive and divert management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business and the businesses of the counterparties to such transactions.

In February 2020, upon substantial completion of the May 2018 $2.0 billion stock repurchase program, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $3.0 billion stock repurchase program. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated agreements. Repurchases of common stock may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit common stock to be purchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The timing, volume and nature of stock repurchases will be at the sole discretion of management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws, and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. All shares repurchased by the Company during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 were purchased pursuant to the Company’s publicly announced stock repurchase programs and have been retired.

Exhibit 10.1
FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE
This FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE (the “Amendment”) is entered into as of April 14, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), by and between BCORE PARADISE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and BELLAGIO, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Tenant”).
RECITALS
A.Landlord and Tenant have entered into that certain Lease dated as of November 15, 2019 (the “Lease”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Lease.
B.Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease to extend the date by which Tenant is obligated to spend at least $275,000,000 on Qualifying CapEx from the expiration of the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2023 until December 31, 2025 as more particularly set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1.Definition of Required CapEx. The definition of “Required CapEx” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
““Required CapEx”: An aggregate amount of Qualifying CapEx spent during the applicable CapEx Testing Period equal to the product of (x) the Specified CapEx Percentage (based on the applicable Specified CapEx Percentage for each Lease Year during such CapEx Testing Period) and (y) the actual Net Revenue of the Leased Property during such CapEx Testing Period; provided, however, the Required CapEx during the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2023, shall not be less than $175,000,000.”
2.Definition of Deferred Capex Amount. The definition of “Deferred CapEx Amount” is hereby added immediately after the definition of “Debt Facilities” and before the definition of “Disclosure Documents”:
““Deferred CapEx Amount ”: The difference, if positive, of $275,000,000 less the aggregate amount of Qualifying CapEx spent during the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2023.”
3.Capex Reserve Account. Section 9.1(e)(i) shall be revised to add the following after the last sentence thereof:
“Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent there is a Deferred CapEx Amount (but without limiting in any way Tenant’s obligation to expend the Required CapEx during the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2023), Tenant shall not be obligated to deposit such Deferred CapEx Amount into the CapEx Reserve pursuant to this Section 9.1(e)(i) unless and until such Deferred CapEx Amount is not expended as provided in Section 9.1(e)(vi) hereof, in which case, any deficiency in spending the Deferred CapEx Amount as required by Section 9(e)(vi) hereof shall be required to be deposited into the CapEx Reserve, with any amounts not spent being subject to the CapEx Grace Period.”
4.Deferred CapEx Amount. The following new Section 9.1(e)(vi) shall be added to the Lease immediately after Section 9.1(e)(v):
“(vi)During the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2025, in addition to the Required CapEx for such CapEx Testing Period, Tenant is required to expend the Deferred CapEx Amount, if any, on Qualifying CapEx. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any amount spent to satisfy the Deferred CapEx Amount shall not be included in the calculation of the amount of Required CapEx spent during any CapEx Testing Period and (y) any failure to satisfy the Deferred CapEx Amount shall have the same effect hereunder as a failure to satisfy Required CapEx (including without limitation, pursuant to Section 9.1(e) and Section 16.1(a)(xv)). For example, if the Deferred CapEx Amount is $50,000,000 and the amount of Required CapEx required to be spent during the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2025 is $250,000,000, Tenant shall be required to expend $300,000,000 on Qualifying CapEx during the CapEx Testing Period ending December 31, 2025, with any amounts not spent during such period subject to the CapEx Grace Period.”
5.Reaffirmation of Guaranty. By executing this Amendment, Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (x) Tenant’s obligations under the Lease have been modified by this Amendment and therefore Guarantor’s Obligations (as defined in the Guaranty) have been modified by this Amendment and (y) Guarantor’s Obligations expressly include all of Tenant’s obligations with respect to any Deferred CapEx Amount. Guarantor hereby reaffirms the Guaranty and Guarantor’s Obligations thereunder, as modified by this Amendment.
6.No Further Amendment. The Lease shall remain in full force and effect, unmodified, except as expressly set forth herein.
7.Governing Law. Section 41.5 of the Lease is hereby incorporated into this Amendment and shall be applicable thereto.
8.Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Amendment to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Documents executed, scanned and transmitted electronically and electronic signatures shall be deemed original signatures for purposes of this Amendment and all matters related thereto, with such scanned and electronic signatures having the same legal effect as original signatures.

I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of MGM Resorts International; |
2. |
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report; |
3. |
Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report; |
4. |
The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have: |
|
a) |
designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared; |
|
b) |
designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; |
|
c) |
evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and |
|
d) |
disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and |
5. |
The registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions): |
|
a) |
all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and |
|
b) |
any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting. |
