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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2021, the Company owned 42.1% of the Operating Partnership units, and MGP held the remaining 57.9% 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.

 

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, 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. See Note 3 for additional information related to CityCenter.

 

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 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 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 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 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. In the latter part of the first quarter of 2021, certain jurisdictions have loosened prior operating restrictions, including increased capacity limits applicable to restaurants and conventions as well as allowing limited entertainment events to resume, subject to continued COVID-19 safety measures.

 

Although we are continuing to see reduced operating restrictions at our properties, such properties may be subject to temporary, complete, or partial shutdowns in the future. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether the jurisdictions in which its properties are located, states or federal governments will adopt similar or more restrictive measures in the future than in the past, including stay-at-home orders. While business volumes have improved since operating restrictions loosened in the first quarter of 2021, our properties continued to generate revenues that are significantly lower than historical results.

 

The Company has seen and continues to expect to see weakened demand at its properties relative to pre-pandemic business volumes as a result of continued domestic and international travel restrictions or warnings, restrictions on amenity use, such as gaming, restaurant and pool capacity limitations, consumer fears and reduced consumer discretionary spending, general economic uncertainty, and increased rates of unemployment. In light of the foregoing, the Company is unable to determine when its properties will return to pre-pandemic demand or pricing.

 

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 gaming tables allowed to operate and 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.

 

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.

 

8


 

 

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 March 31, 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 $60 million as of March 31, 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 March 31, 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 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.

 

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, cost method investments, 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 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.

Senior credit facility. At March 31, 2021, the Company’s senior credit facility consisted of a $1.5 billion revolving facility. At March 31, 2021, no amounts were drawn on the revolving credit facility.

 

In February 2021, the Company amended its credit facility to extend the covenant relief period provided under the previous amendment related to its financial maintenance covenants through the earlier of (x) the day immediately following the date the Company delivers to the administrative agent a compliance certificate with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2022 and (y) the date the Company delivers 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, 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.

 

The Company’s senior credit facility contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and positive and negative covenants. The Company was in compliance with its applicable covenants at March 31, 2021.

 

Operating Partnership senior credit facility and bridge facility. At March 31, 2021, the Operating Partnership senior credit facility consisted of a $1.35 billion revolving credit facility.

The Operating Partnership was in compliance with its revolving credit facility covenants at March 31, 2021.

 

The Operating Partnership is party to interest rate swaps to mitigate the effects of interest rate volatility inherent in its variable rate debt as well as forecasted debt issuances. As of March 31, 2021, the Operating Partnership has currently effective interest rate swap agreements on which it pays a weighted average fixed rate of 1.821% on total notional amount of $1.9 billion. The Operating Partnership has an additional $900 million total notional amount of forward starting interest rate swaps that are not currently effective. The fair value of interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges was $29 million, with $5 million recorded as a current liability and $24 million recorded as a long-term liability, as of March 31, 2021, and $41 million, with $1 million recorded as a current liability and $40 million recorded as a long-term liability, as of December 31, 2020. The fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as cash flow hedges was $43 million, with $24 million recorded as a current liability and $19 million recorded as a long-term liability, as of March 31, 2021, and $78 million, with $31 million recorded as a current liability and $47 million recorded as a long-term liability, as of December 31, 2020. 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.

    

MGM China first revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2021, the MGM China first revolving credit facility consisted of a $1.25 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2021, $903 million was drawn on the MGM China first revolving credit facility and the weighted average interest rate was 2.88%.

MGM China second revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2021, the MGM China second revolving credit facility consisted of a $400 million unsecured revolving credit facility with an option to increase the amount of the facility up to $500 million, subject to certain conditions.

At March 31, 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. 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 second revolving credit facility covenants at March 31, 2021.

 

MGM China senior notes. In March 2021, MGM China issued $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes due 2027 at an issue price of 99.97%.

 

Fair value of long-term debt. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was $14.0 billion and $13.2 billion at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Fair value was estimated using quoted market prices for the Company’s senior notes and credit facilities.

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 benefit of 22.0% on loss before income taxes and a provision of 28.0% on income before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 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 $3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 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.

 

MGM Grand Paradise’s application for an extension of its annual fee arrangement with Macau covering distributions of gaming profits to be earned through June 26, 2022 is still pending. Until the extension is granted, the 12% complementary tax will accrue on distributions of gaming profits earned after March 31, 2020; however, no amounts are accrued for the three months ended March 31, 2021 since MGM Grand Paradise continues to generate losses due to the impact of COVID-19.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 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 audit closure, the Company reversed $10 million of unrecognized tax benefits during the quarter. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that it will reverse an additional $20 million of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months on the expectation during such period of a settlement with IRS Appeals for issues outstanding on the Company's 2014 U.S. consolidated federal income tax return.

 

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 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 March 31, 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 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. The Company was in compliance with its applicable lease covenants as of March 31, 2021.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation. The Company is a party to various legal proceedings, most of which relate to routine matters incidental to its business. Management does not believe that the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Other guarantees.  The Company and its subsidiaries are party to various guarantee contracts in the normal course of business, which are generally supported by letters of credit issued by financial institutions. The Company’s senior credit facility limits the amount of letters of credit that can be issued to $850 million. At March 31, 2021, $30 million in letters of credit were outstanding under the Company’s senior credit facility. The Operating Partnership’s senior credit facility limits the amount of letters of credit that can be issued to $75 million. No letters of credit were outstanding under the Operating Partnership’s senior credit facility at March 31, 2021. The amount of available borrowings under each of the credit facilities is reduced by any outstanding letters of credit.

 

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 in an amount of approximately $102 million (when giving effect to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations) 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.

 

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.

 

15


 

 

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 that certain 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.

Other equity activity  

 

MGM Resorts International dividends. On April 28, 2021 the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0025 per share that will be payable on June 15, 2021 to holders of record on June 10, 2021.

 

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 March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased approximately 3 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $37.87 per share for an aggregate amount of $119 million. Repurchased shares were retired. As a result of those repurchases, 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 $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2021.

 

Subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 1 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $39.10 per share for an aggregate amount of $56 million. Repurchased shares will be retired.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased approximately 11 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $32.57 per share for an aggregate amount of $354 million. Repurchased shares were retired.

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, 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.

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. In the latter part of the first quarter of 2021, certain jurisdictions have loosened prior operating restrictions, including increased capacity limits applicable to restaurants and conventions as well as allowing limited entertainment events to resume, subject to continued COVID-19 safety measures.

 

Although we are continuing to see reduced operating restrictions at our properties, such properties may be subject to temporary, complete, or partial shutdowns in the future due to COVID-19 related concerns. At this time, we cannot predict whether the jurisdictions in which our properties are located, states or federal governments will adopt similar or more restrictive measures in the future than in the past, including stay-at-home orders. While business volumes have improved since operating restrictions loosened in the first quarter of 2021, our properties continued to generate revenues that are significantly lower than historical results.

 

We have seen and continue to expect to see weakened demand at our properties relative to pre-pandemic business volumes as a result of continued domestic and international travel restrictions or warnings, restrictions on amenity use, such as gaming, restaurant and pool capacity limitations, consumer fears and reduced consumer discretionary spending, general economic uncertainty, and increased rates of unemployment. In light of the foregoing, we are unable to determine when our properties will return to pre-pandemic demand or pricing.

 

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 gaming tables allowed to operate and 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.

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.

 

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 – 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 three months ended March 31, 2021 and 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.

 

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 decreased 27% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to the impact of COVID-19. While the prior year period was negatively affected by property closures for a portion of the quarter at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts and Regional Operations, the current year quarter was negatively affected by midweek property and hotel closures, lower business volume and travel activity, and ongoing operational restrictions due to the pandemic, primarily at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts. At MGM China, the prior year quarter was negatively affected by property closures and was more significantly impacted by travel restrictions to Macau than in the current quarter. These factors resulted in a 52% decrease in net revenues at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, a 2% decrease in net revenues at our Regional Operations, and a 9% increase in net revenues at MGM China.

 

Consolidated operating loss was $247 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to consolidated operating income of $1.3 billion in the prior year quarter, due primarily to the prior year quarter including a $1.5 billion gain related to the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay real estate transaction, the impact of COVID-19 which caused a decrease in net revenues, discussed above, partially offset by a $28 million decrease in general and administrative expense, a $28 million decrease in depreciation and amortization, a $29 million decrease in property transactions, net, and a $66 million decrease in corporate expense. General and administrative expense decreased in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter due primarily to aggressive cost reduction efforts to reduce expenses at our domestic properties, which primarily related to decreases in payroll expense, utilities, and advertising expense, which was partially offset by a full quarter of rent expense for the Mandalay Bay and MGM Grand Las Vegas lease. Corporate expense decreased to $78 million in the first quarter of 2021 from $144 million in the prior year quarter due primarily to a decrease in payroll costs. Corporate expense in the prior year quarter included $44 million in CEO transition expense and $4 million in 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 prior year quarter included a $38 million other-than-temporary impairment charge on an equity method investment. Depreciation and amortization decreased compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to the sale of the MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay real estate assets in February 2020.

Non-operating Results

 

Interest Expense

 

Gross interest expense was $196 million and $158 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in gross interest expense when compared to the prior year quarter is due primarily to the increase in average debt outstanding related to our senior notes, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate related to our 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 $32 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 compared to other expense, net of $124 million in the prior year quarter. The current quarter included a $35 million gain on unhedged interest rate swaps, a $6 million remeasurement loss on MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes and $5 million of interest income. The prior year quarter 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, partially offset by an $8 million remeasurement gain on MGM China’s U.S. dollar-denominated senior notes. Refer to Note 4 for further discussion of our long-term debt.

 

Income Taxes

 

Our effective tax rate was a benefit of 22.0% on loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a provision of 28.0% on income before income taxes in the prior year quarter. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was favorably impacted by a release of tax reserves in conjunction with the closure of the most recent New Jersey state audit for Marina District Development Company. The effective tax rate in the prior year quarter was driven primarily by tax expense recorded on the MGP BREIT Venture transaction and the unfavorable impact of adjustments to valuation allowances for Macau deferred tax assets and foreign tax credits.

 

The annual effective tax rate calculation for all periods is impacted by assumptions made regarding projected foreign tax credit usage and valuation allowance. See Note 5 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

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, 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, 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.

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 March 31, 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.

29


 

 

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 used in operating activities was $88 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $423 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in cash used in operating activities over the prior year period is primarily 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, as well as a current year quarter decrease in cash paid for interest. Operating cash flows at our properties decreased compared to the prior year period as a result of the decrease at our Las Vegas Strip resorts, as discussed above.

 

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 $155 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to cash provided by investing activities of $2.4 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2020. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, we made $79 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below, and contributed $75 million to our unconsolidated affiliate BetMGM LLC (“BetMGM”). In comparison, in the prior year quarter 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 $73 million in capital expenditures and a $20 million investment made in our unconsolidated affiliate BetMGM.

Capital Expenditures

 

We made capital expenditures of $79 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021, of which $30 million related to MGM China. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $23 million primarily related to construction of the south tower project at MGM Cotai and $7 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate entities of $49 million primarily relate to expenditures in information technology and room remodels.

 

We made capital expenditures of $73 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, of which $42 million related to MGM China. Capital expenditures at MGM China included $39 million related to projects at MGM Cotai and $3 million related to projects at MGM Macau. Capital expenditures at our Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations and corporate entities of $31 million included expenditures relating to information technology, and various room, restaurant, and entertainment venue remodels.

 

Financing activities. Cash provided by financing activities was $1.3 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1.7 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2020. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had net borrowings of debt of $876 million, as further discussed below, received net proceeds of $676 million from the issuance of MGP’s Class A shares, distributed $76 million to noncontrolling interest owners, and we repurchased $119 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, net proceeds of $525 million from MGP’s Class A share issuances, net borrowings of debt of $443 million as further discussed below, and we repurchased $354 million of our common stock.

 

Borrowings and Repayments of Long-term Debt

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had net borrowings of debt of $876 million which consisted of  MGM China’s issuance of $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes due 2027 at an issue price of 99.97% and $133 million of net borrowings on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility, partially offset by the Operating Partnership’s repayment of $9 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 in April 2021, subsequent to March 31, 2021, and for general corporate purposes.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had net borrowings of $443 million which consisted of $1.5 billion of borrowings on our senior credit facility, $1.35 billion of borrowings on the Operating Partnership's senior credit facility, and $158 million of net borrowings on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility, partially offset by the repayment of $399 million of the Operating Partnership’s term loan A facility and $1.3 billion of the Operating Partnership’s term loan B facility, and the purchase of $750 million in aggregate amount of our senior notes through our cash tender offers.

 

Dividends, Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest Owners and Share Repurchases

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we repurchased and retired $119 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 $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 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, we paid a dividend of $0.0025 per share, totaling $1 million, paid during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a dividend of $0.15 per share, totaling $74 million, paid during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

The Operating Partnership paid the following distributions to its partnership unit holders during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

 

 

$136 million of distributions paid in January 2021, of which we received $72 million and MGP received $64 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders; and

 

$147 million of distributions paid in January 2020, of which we received $94 million and MGP received $53 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 March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.2 billion, of which MGM China held $1.1 billion and the Operating Partnership held $143 million. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balance, we currently have significant real estate assets and other holdings: we own MGM Springfield, a 50% interest in CityCenter in Las Vegas, an approximate 56% interest in MGM China, and a 42.1% economic interest in MGP.

 

At March 31, 2021, we had $13.4 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $1 million outstanding under the $1.35 billion Operating Partnership revolving credit facility, and $903 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 or the $400 million MGM China second revolving credit facility. We have no debt maturing prior to 2022.

 

Subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2021, we repurchased approximately 1 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $39.10 per share for an aggregate amount of $56 million. Repurchased shares will be retired.

 

We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of the year of approximately $340 million to $360 million domestically and approximately $80 million to $90 million at MGM China. As of March 31, 2021, our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months are approximately $345 million to $350 million, excluding MGP and MGM China, and approximately $735 million to $740 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.

 

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 April 2021, the Operating Partnership paid $131 million of distributions to its partnership unit holders, of which we received $55 million and MGP received $76 million, which MGP concurrently paid as a dividend to its Class A shareholders.

 

On April 28, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0025 per share. The dividend will be payable on June 15, 2021 to holders of record on June 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 lessened, 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 outbreak, 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.

As of March 31, 2021, variable rate borrowings represented approximately 7% 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 1.821% on a total notional amount of $1.9 billion. 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 March 31, 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.

 

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “will,” “may” and similar references to future periods. 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, 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.

 

33


 

 

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, they are operating without certain amenities and subject to certain occupancy limitations, and we are unable to predict the length of time it will take for our properties to return to normal operations or if such properties will be required to close again due to the COVID-19 pandemic;

 

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;

 

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;

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;

34

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;

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 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;

In February 2020, upon substantial completion of the $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 March 31, 2021 were purchased pursuant to the Company’s publicly announced stock repurchase programs and have been retired, and during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the previously announced $2.0 billion stock repurchase program was completed.
