MGM RESORTS INTERNATIONAL AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Organization. MGM Resorts International, a Delaware corporation, (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, the “Company”) is a global gaming and entertainment company with domestic and international locations featuring hotels and casinos, convention, dining, and retail offerings, and sports betting and online gaming operations.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s domestic casino resorts include the following integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada: Aria (including Vdara), Bellagio, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas (“The Cosmopolitan”), MGM Grand Las Vegas (including The Signature), Mandalay Bay (including W Las Vegas and Four Seasons), Luxor, New York-New York, Park MGM (including NoMad Las Vegas), and Excalibur. The Company also operates MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan, MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland, MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts, Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey, Empire City in Yonkers, New York, MGM Northfield Park in Northfield Park, Ohio, and Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi. Additionally, the Company operates The Park, a dining and entertainment district located between New York-New York and Park MGM. The Company leases the real estate assets of its domestic properties pursuant to triple net lease agreements.
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 MGM Macau and MGM Cotai, two integrated casino, hotel and entertainment resorts in Macau, as well as the related gaming concession and land concessions.
The Company also owns LV Lion Holding Limited (together with its subsidiaries, “LeoVegas”), a consolidated subsidiary that has global online gaming operations headquartered in Sweden and Malta. Additionally, the Company and its venture partner, Entain plc, each have a 50 50 % ownership interest in Osaka IR KK, an unconsolidated affiliate, which is developing an integrated resort in Osaka, Japan.
Reportable segments. The Company has four reportable segments: Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations, MGM China, and MGM Digital. See Note 10 for additional information about the Company’s segments.
NOTE 2 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s interim financial statements. The results for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Principles of consolidation. The Company evaluates entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company consolidates its investment in a VIE when it determines that it is its primary beneficiary. Bellagio REIT Venture (the landlord of Bellagio, which is a venture in which the Company has a 5 % ownership interest) and Osaka IR KK are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have power on its own to direct the activities that could potentially be significant to the ventures and, accordingly, does not consolidate the ventures. The Company may change its original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. The Company performs this analysis on an ongoing basis.
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 generally accounts for the entity under the equity method, such as BetMGM North America Venture, which does not qualify for consolidation as the Company has joint control, given the entity is structured with substantive participating rights whereby both owners participate in the decision making process, which prevents the Company from exerting a controlling financial interest in such entity, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810. For entities over which the Company does not have significant influence, the Company accounts for its equity investment under ASC 321.
Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period presentation.
Fair value measurements. Fair value measurements affect the Company’s accounting and impairment assessments of its long-lived assets, investments in unconsolidated affiliates or equity interests, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in an acquisition, and goodwill and other intangible assets. Fair value measurements also affect the Company’s accounting for certain of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes: Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices in an active market; Level 2 inputs, which are quoted prices for identical or comparable instruments or pricing using observable market data; or Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs. The Company used the following inputs in its fair value measurements:
•Level 1 inputs when measuring its equity investments recorded at fair value;
•Level 2 inputs for its long-term debt fair value disclosures; See Note 4;
•Level 2 inputs for its derivatives, and
•Level 1 and Level 2 inputs for its debt investments.
Equity investments. Fair value is measured based upon trading prices on the applicable securities exchange for equity investments for which the Company has elected the fair value option of ASC 825 and equity investments accounted for under ASC 321 that have a readily determinable fair value. The fair value of these investments was $420 million and $388 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and is reflected within “Other long-term assets, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses are recorded in “Other, net” in the statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 the Company recorded a net gain on its equity investments of $32 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a net loss on its equity investments of $24 million.
Derivatives. The Company uses derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these derivatives are recorded within “Other, net” in the statements of operations and within “Other” in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. The balance sheet classification of the derivatives in a current liability position are within “Other accrued liabilities,” a long-term liability position are within “Other long-term obligations,” a current asset position are within “Prepaid expenses and other,” and a long-term asset position are within “Other long-term assets, net.”
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has forward currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of March 31, 2025, the fair value of derivatives classified as assets were $2 million within long-term assets and liabilities of $60 million within current liabilities. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of derivatives classified as liabilities were $96 million, with $57 million in current liabilities and $39 million in long-term liabilities.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded a net gain on its derivatives of $40 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a net loss on its derivatives of $38 million.
Debt investments. The Company’s investments in debt securities are classified as trading securities and recorded at fair value. Gains and losses are recorded in “Other, net” in the statements of operations. Debt securities are considered cash equivalents if the criteria for such classification is met or otherwise classified as short-term investments within “Prepaid expenses and other” since the investment of cash is available for current operations.

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value because of the short maturity of those instruments (Level 1).
Restricted cash. MGM China’s pledged cash of $87
Accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the loss reserve on accounts receivable was $134 million and $135 million, respectively.
Accounts payable. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had accrued $84 million and $109 million, respectively, for purchases of property and equipment within “Accounts and construction payable” on the consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue recognition. Contract and Contract-Related Liabilities. There may be a difference between the timing of cash receipts from the customer and the recognition of revenue, resulting in a contract or contract-related liability. The Company generally has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding chip liability, which represents the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by a customer, (2) loyalty program obligations, which represents the deferred allocation of revenue relating to loyalty program incentives earned, and (3) customer advances and other, which is primarily funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs (“casino front money”) and advance payments on goods and services yet to be provided, such as advance ticket sales and deposits on rooms and convention space or for unpaid wagers. These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within one year of being purchased, earned, or deposited and are recorded within “Other accrued liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets.
The following table summarizes the activity related to contract and contract-related liabilities:

Leases. Refer to Note 6 for information regarding leases under which the Company is a lessee. The Company is a lessor under certain other lease arrangements. Lease revenues earned by the Company from third parties are classified within the line item corresponding to the type or nature of the tenant’s good or service. For the three months ended
9
March 31, 2025, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $18 million recorded within food and beverage revenue, and $28 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, lease revenues from third-party tenants include $20 million recorded within food and beverage revenue and $28 million recorded within entertainment, retail, and other revenue. Lease revenues from the rental of hotel rooms are recorded as rooms revenues within the consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Cybersecurity litigation, claims, and investigations. In September 2023, through unauthorized access to certain of its U.S. systems, third-party criminal actors accessed, for some of the Company’s customers, personal information (including name, contact information (such as phone number, email address and postal address), gender, date of birth and driver’s license numbers). For a limited number of customers, Social Security numbers and passport numbers were also accessed by the criminal actors. The Company has notified individuals impacted by this issue in accordance with federal and state law.
In connection with this cybersecurity issue, the Company became subject to consumer class actions in U.S. and Canadian courts. These class actions assert a variety of common law and statutory claims based on allegations that the Company failed to use reasonable security procedures and practices to safeguard customers’ personal information, and seek monetary and statutory damages, injunctive relief and other related relief. The Company reached a settlement for $45 million to resolve the purported U.S. civil class action litigation related to the 2023 cybersecurity issue and a 2019 cybersecurity issue, which was paid by insurance carriers into a settlement fund in February 2025. In addition, the Company continues to be subject to investigations by state regulators, which also could result in monetary fines and other relief. The Company cannot predict the timing or outcome of any of these potential matters, or whether the Company may be subject to additional legal proceedings, claims, regulatory inquiries, investigations, or enforcement actions. While the Company believes it is reasonably possible that it may incur losses associated with the above-described proceedings, it is not possible to estimate the amount of loss or range of loss, if any, that might result from adverse judgments, settlements, or other resolution given the preliminary stage of these proceedings.
Other litigation. The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings, most of which relate to routine matters incidental to its business. Management does not believe that the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Commitments and guarantees. MGM China bank guarantees. In connection with the issuance of the gaming concession in January 2023, bank guarantees were provided to the government of Macau in the amount of MOP 1 billion (approximately $125 million as of March 31, 2025) to warrant the fulfillment of labor liabilities and of damages or losses that may result if there is noncompliance with the concession. The guarantees expire 180 days after the end of the concession term. As of March 31, 2025, MOP 700 million of the bank guarantees (approximately $87 million as of March 31, 2025) were secured by pledged cash.
Bellagio REIT shortfall guarantee. The Company provides a shortfall guarantee of the $3.01 billion principal amount of indebtedness (and any interest accrued and unpaid thereon) of the landlord of Bellagio, Bellagio REIT Venture, which is a VIE and a related party, for which such indebtedness matures in 2029. The terms of the shortfall guarantee provide that after the lenders have exhausted certain remedies to collect on the obligations under the indebtedness, the Company would then be responsible for any shortfall between the value of the collateral, which is the real estate assets of the applicable property owned by the landlord, and the debt obligation. The guarantee is accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial.
14
Osaka IR KK guarantees. The Company provides for guarantees (1) in the amount of 12.65 billion yen (approximately $84 million as of March 31, 2025) for 50 % of Osaka IR KK’s obligations to Osaka under various agreements related to the venture’s development of an integrated resort in Osaka, Japan and (2) of an uncapped amount to provide funding to Osaka IR KK, if necessary, for the completion of the construction and full opening of the integrated resort. The guarantees expire when the obligations relating to the full opening of the integrated resort are fulfilled. The guarantees are accounted for under ASC 460 at fair value; such value is immaterial. Additionally, the Company’s ownership interest in Osaka IR KK, which had a carrying value of $285 million as of March 31, 2025, is pledged as collateral for Osaka IR KK’s obligations under its credit agreement.
Osaka IR KK funding commitment. The Company has commitments to fund Osaka IR KK of 428 billion yen, of which an estimated amount of approximately 392 billion yen (approximately $2.6 billion as of March 31, 2025) remains to be funded as of March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company funded 1.4 billion yen (approximately $9 million) of the committed amount to Osaka IR KK. The amount and timing of funding is expected to change as a result of project progress, inflation, and other factors.

NOTE 9 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
MGM Resorts International stock repurchases. In February 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan, in November 2023, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan, and in April 2025, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan. Under these stock repurchase plans, 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, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately 12 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $511 million. In connection with these repurchases, the February 2023 stock repurchase plan was completed. Repurchased shares were retired.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 15 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $494 million. Repurchased shares were retired. The remaining availability under the November 2023 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was $337 million as of March 31, 2025.
NOTE 10 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s management views the operations of each of its casino properties as an operating segment which are aggregated into the reportable segments of Las Vegas Strip Resorts, Regional Operations, and MGM China based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate and their management and reporting structure. The Company’s interactive gaming operations are reported within the MGM Digital reportable segment. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company added MGM Digital as a reportable segment to reflect the Company’s strategic focus on interactive gaming. The corresponding items of segment information for MGM Digital, which were previously included within “Corporate and other”, as applicable, were recast for prior periods.
Las Vegas Strip Resorts. Las Vegas Strip Resorts consists of the following casino resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada: Aria (including Vdara), Bellagio, The Cosmopolitan, MGM Grand Las Vegas (including The Signature), Mandalay Bay (including W Las Vegas and Four Seasons), Luxor, New York-New York (including The Park), Excalibur, and Park MGM (including NoMad Las Vegas).
Regional Operations. Regional Operations consists of the following casino properties: MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan; Beau Rivage in Biloxi, Mississippi; Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey; MGM National Harbor in Prince George’s County, Maryland; MGM Springfield in Springfield, Massachusetts; Empire City in Yonkers, New York; and MGM Northfield Park in Northfield Park, Ohio.
MGM China. MGM China consists of MGM Macau and MGM Cotai.
MGM Digital. MGM Digital consists of LeoVegas and other consolidated subsidiaries that offer interactive gaming.
The Company’s operations related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates, and certain other corporate operations and management services have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in “Corporate and other” in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results.
Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is the Company’s reportable segment GAAP measure, which management utilizes as the primary profit measure for its reportable segments and underlying operating segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, property transactions, net, triple net lease rent expense, loss from unconsolidated affiliates, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment. Triple net lease rent expense is the expense for rent to landlords under triple net operating leases for its domestic properties, the ground subleases of Beau Rivage and MGM National Harbor, and the land concessions at MGM China.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and related notes thereto and the other disclosures contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which were included in our Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2025. The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods. MGM Resorts International together with its subsidiaries may be referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” MGM China Holdings Limited together with its subsidiaries is referred to as “MGM China.”
Key Performance Indicators
Key performance indicators related to gaming and hotel revenue are:
•Gaming revenue indicators: table games drop, which is the total amount of cash and net markers issued and deposited into the drop box, and slot handle, which is the gross amount wagered in slot machines, (volume indicators); “win” or “hold” percentage, which is not fully controllable by us. “Win” or “hold” percentages represent the net amount of gaming wins and losses in relation to table games drop or slot handle; 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.

Reportable Segment GAAP measure
“Segment Adjusted EBITDAR” is our reportable segment GAAP measure, which we utilize as the primary profit measure for our reportable segments and underlying operating segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDAR is a measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, property transactions, net, triple net lease rent expense, loss from unconsolidated affiliates, and also excludes corporate expense and stock compensation expense, which are not allocated to each operating segment. Triple net lease rent expense is the expense for rent to landlords under triple net operating leases for its domestic
23
properties, the ground subleases of Beau Rivage and MGM National Harbor, and the land concessions at MGM China. “Segment Adjusted EBITDAR margin” is Segment Adjusted EBITDAR divided by related segment net revenues.
Non-GAAP measures
“Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” is earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, and property transactions, net.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA information is a non-GAAP measure that is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure to reported GAAP measures because it is among the measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance, and because we believe this measure is widely used by analysts, lenders, financial institutions, and investors as a measure of operating performance in the gaming industry and as a principal basis for the valuation of gaming companies. We believe that while items excluded from Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA 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 compared to other periods because these items can vary significantly depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may not be comparable between the periods being presented. Also, we believe excluded items may not relate specifically to current operating 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 properties, 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, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be construed as an alternative or substitute to any measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For example, we have significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, income taxes, and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, while we believe that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a relevant measure of performance, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to or substitute for operating income or net income as an indicator of our performance, or as an alternative to or substitute for cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, other companies in the gaming and hospitality industries that report Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA may calculate Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in a different manner and such differences may be material. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is included herein.

Guarantor Financial Information
As of March 31, 2025, all of our registered principal debt arrangements are guaranteed by each of our wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facility. Our registered principal debt arrangements and our senior credit facility are not guaranteed by MGM Grand Detroit, LLC, MGM National Harbor, LLC, Blue Tarp reDevelopment, LLC (d/b/a MGM Springfield), MGM Sports & Interactive Gaming, LLC (the entity that holds our 50% interest in BetMGM North America Venture), MGM CEE Holdco, LLC (the entity that holds our consolidated digital gaming subsidiaries, including LeoVegas), and each of their respective subsidiaries. Our foreign subsidiaries, including MGM China and its subsidiaries, are also not guarantors of our registered principal debt arrangements or our senior credit facility. In the event that any subsidiary is no longer a guarantor of our senior 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 are 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.
The summarized financial information of us and our guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, is presented below.

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, and income tax payments or refunds. Cash provided by operating activities was $547 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $549 million in the prior year period.
Investing activities. Our investing cash flows can fluctuate significantly from year to year depending on our decisions with respect to strategic capital investments, business acquisitions or dispositions, and the timing of maintenance capital expenditures to maintain the quality of our properties. Capital expenditures related to regular investments in our existing properties can also vary depending on timing of larger remodel projects related to our public spaces and hotel rooms.
Cash used in investing activities was $227 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $108 million in the prior year period. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we made payments of $228 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below. In comparison, in the prior year period we made payments of $172 million in capital expenditures, as further discussed below, contributed $10 million to unconsolidated affiliates, and received $105 million in net short-term investments in debt securities.
Capital Expenditures
We made capital expenditures of $228 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, of which $60 million related to MGM China and is inclusive of capital expenditures relating to the gaming concession investment. Capital expenditures primarily related to room remodels and information technology.
We made capital expenditures of $172 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, of which $15 million related to MGM China and is inclusive of capital expenditures related to the gaming concession investment. Capital expenditures primarily related to information technology and room remodels.
Financing activities. Cash used in financing activities was $470 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $629 million in the prior year period. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net borrowings of
26
debt of $50 million, as further discussed below, paid $489 million for repurchases of our common stock, and distributed $12 million to noncontrolling interest owners. In comparison, in the prior year period, we had net repayments of debt of $77 million, as further discussed below, paid $507 million for repurchases of our common stock, and distributed $12 million to noncontrolling interest owners.
Borrowings and Repayments of Long-term Debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net borrowings of debt of $50 million on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had net repayments of debt of $77 million on MGM China’s first revolving credit facility, which were funded with cash on hand.
Share Repurchases
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid $489 million relating to repurchases of our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plans. See Note 9 for further information on the stock repurchases. The remaining availability under the November 2023 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was $337 million as of March 31, 2025. Additionally, in April 2025, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we paid $507 million relating to repurchases of our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plans. In connection with those repurchases, the February 2023 $2.0 billion stock repurchase plan was completed.
Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Anticipated Uses of Cash
We require a certain amount of cash on hand to operate our businesses. 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 properties daily into central bank accounts, and excess funds are invested overnight or are used to repay amounts drawn under our revolving credit facilities. 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 and commitments.
As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 billion, of which MGM China held $815 million, and we had $6.5 billion in principal amount of indebtedness, including $3.0 billion related to MGM China. No amounts were drawn on our revolving credit facility or MGM China’s second revolving credit facility and, as of March 31, 2025, there was $527 million outstanding under MGM China’s first revolving credit facility.
On April 15, 2025, MGM China entered into a HK$23.4 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The MGM China revolving credit facility matures in April 2030 and bears interest at a fluctuating rate per annum based on the Hong Kong Interbank Offer Rate plus 1.625% to 2.75%, as determined by MGM China’s leverage ratio. The MGM China 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 April 2025, MGM China repaid in full the amounts outstanding under its MGM China first revolving credit facility with borrowings under the MGM China revolving credit facility and the total commitments of the MGM China first revolving credit facility and MGM China second revolving credit facility were cancelled in full.
Our expected cash interest payments over the next twelve months, based on principal amounts of debt outstanding, contractual maturity dates, and interest rates, each as of March 31, 2025, are approximately $190 million to $210 million, excluding MGM China, and approximately $360 million to $380 million on a consolidated basis, which includes MGM China.
We are also required, as of March 31, 2025, to make annual cash rent payments of $1.8 billion to our landlords over the next twelve months under triple net lease agreements, which triple net leases are also subject to annual escalators and also require us to pay substantially all costs associated with the lease, including real estate taxes, ground lease payments, insurance, utilities and routine maintenance (with each lease obligating us to spend a specified percentage of net revenues at the properties on capital expenditures), in addition to the annual cash rent.
27
We have planned capital expenditures expected over the remainder of 2025 of approximately $870 million to $970 million on a consolidated basis, of which $175 million to $225 million relates to MGM China and is inclusive of the estimated amount of the gaming concession investment that relates to capital projects.
We continue to explore potential development or investment opportunities, such as expanding our global online gaming presence and pursuing a commercial gaming facility in New York, which may require cash commitments in the future. If our pursuit of a commercial gaming facility in New York is successful, we expect the project cost to be approximately $2 billion, inclusive of a $500 million license fee, with the amount and timing of costs dependent upon the progress and scope of the project and selection process. Additionally, we have cash commitments to fund Osaka IR KK relating to the development of an integrated resort in Osaka, Japan of 428 billion yen, which represents our approximate 43.5% equity share (our estimated ownership percentage of Osaka IR KK subsequent to subscribed minority equity interest funding). We expect to fund the estimated remaining amount of approximately 392 billion yen (approximately $2.6 billion as of March 31, 2025) over the next four years, depending upon project progress. We expect project costs will increase due primarily to inflation, which increases may be offset by cost mitigation efforts and funded by additional financing. Refer to Note 7 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding our commitments and guarantees.
We also expect to continue to repurchase shares pursuant to our share repurchase plans. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, we repurchased approximately 8 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate amount of $215 million, excluding excise tax. Repurchased shares were retired.
MGM China recommended a final dividend for 2024 in March 2025, subject to shareholders’ approval. If approved, MGM China would pay approximately $123 million in June 2025, of which we would receive approximately $69 million.
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, 2024. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since year end.
Market Risk
There have been no material changes in our market risk from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, other than those below.
Interest rate risk. We are subject to 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. 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.
As of March 31, 2025, variable rate borrowings represented approximately 8% of our total borrowings. The following table provides additional information about our gross long-term debt subject to changes in interest rates:
