Las Vegas Sands Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2005 Results
Sands Macao Achieves Record Adjusted Property EBITDAR of $81.0 Million
LAS VEGAS — August 3, 2005 – Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005.
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2005 was $398.8 million compared to $266.7 million in the second quarter of 2004. The significant increase in net revenue in the second quarter of 2005 primarily reflects a full quarter of revenues from the Sands Macao casino, which opened midway through the second quarter of 2004.
Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $95.5 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.27, compared to adjusted net income of $39.5 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.12, for the second quarter of 2004. (See the accompanying tables and footnotes, which reconcile net income to adjusted net income, reconcile net income and operating income to EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDAR, reconcile earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share and show the effect of tax adjustments on 2004 adjusted pro forma net income. See also Note 1 at the end of this release.)
Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share during the second quarter of 2005 exclude pre-opening expenses, development expenses, gain on disposal of assets, and a loss on early retirement of debt. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share during the second quarter of 2004 exclude the gain on the sale of the Grand Canal Shops, pre-opening expenses and development expenses, and include a pro-forma provision for income taxes calculated as if the company had been a tax-paying entity in 2004. On a GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) basis, net income was $86.4 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2005 compared to net income of $461.9 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2004. The second quarter 2004 results included a pre-tax gain of $418.1 million from the sale of the Grand Canal Shops.
“We experienced an exceptional quarter driven largely by record results at the Sands Macao,” stated William P. Weidner, President and Chief Operating Officer. “Adjusted property EBITDAR at the Sands Macao was a record $81.0 million.”
Consolidated adjusted property EBITDAR in the second quarter of 2005 was $151.5 million, an increase of 37.5 percent when compared to $110.2 million in the year-ago quarter.

Operating income during the second quarter of 2005 was $114.1 million compared to $495.1 million reported in the second quarter of 2004. The second quarter 2004 results included a gain of $418.1 million from the sale of the Grand Canal Shops.
“May 18, 2005 marked our one year anniversary in Macao,” continued Weidner. “We believe the strength of our operating performance and returns to date underscore the potential of the Asian marketplace and make us confident in our long-term plans to not only lead the development of the Cotai Strip™, but to be at the forefront of emerging opportunities in other Asian locations.”
Venetian Hotel Resort Casino Second Quarter Operating Results
In the second quarter of 2005, table games drop increased 13.7 percent to $253.2 million versus $222.6 million, and slot machine handle (volume) was $496.0 million compared to $521.4 million in the second quarter of 2004. Lower denominated slot handle ($1 and lower) experienced 6.6% growth compared to the year ago quarter, while higher denominated slot handle ($5 and higher) was down primarily due to much lower $500 denominated slot play. Casino revenues were $73.7 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $76.2 million during the prior year period. Table games win percentage (calculated before discounts) of 18.6 percent was below the normal range of 20 to 21.0% and below the 21.1 percent recorded in the second quarter of last year.
The Venetian’s average daily rate (ADR) was $231 during the second quarter of 2005 compared to $221 during the prior year’s second quarter. The Venetian’s occupancy of available guestrooms was 98.7 percent during the second quarter of 2005, essentially flat with 98.8 percent during the prior year period, generating revenue per available room (REVPAR) of $228 during the second quarter of 2005 versus $218 in the second quarter of 2004. Hotel revenues were $83.0 million during the second quarter of 2005 compared to $79.2 million during the second quarter of 2004.
Food and beverage revenues were $27.8 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $30.7 million last year, due primarily to lower banquet revenues resulting from fewer group room nights in favor of higher FIT room nights during the 2005 quarter. Retail and other operating revenues were $9.6 million compared to $16.6 million during the second quarter of 2004. The 2004 quarter included $5.4 million of retail revenues from the Grand Canal Shops.
In the second quarter of 2005, The Venetian reported adjusted property EBITDAR of $66.5 million compared to $78.2 million in the year-ago quarter. The decline is primarily attributable to lower table games hold percentage, lower high-end slot handle and lower banquet revenues versus a year ago.
Operating income for The Venetian during the second quarter of 2005 was $48.5 million compared to $480.9 million reported in the second quarter of 2004. The 2004 period included a gain of $418.1 million on the sale of the Grand Canal Shops.
Weidner stated “We look forward to September when two of our three new entertainment offerings at The Venetian are expected to open – The Blue Man Group and Tao, Las Vegas’ version of the popular New York based restaurant and nightclub. Work on the Phantom of the Opera theatre continues with a mid-2006 opening anticipated.”

Sands Macao Second Quarter Operating Results
The Sands Macao reported record adjusted property EBITDAR of $81.0 million for the second quarter of 2005. Rolling Chip volume was approximately $2 billion in the second quarter of 2005, up from approximately $856 million in the first quarter of 2005. Table games drop for the Non-Rolling Chip segment was $923 million in the second quarter of 2005, up from approximately $855 million in the first quarter of 2005.
Rolling Chip table games win percentage (calculated before discounts and commissions) was 2.6 percent in the second quarter of 2005, while Non-Rolling Chip table games win percentage (calculated before discounts and incentives) came in at 16.6 percent in the second quarter of 2005. These results compare to our expected Rolling Chips table games win percentage (calculated before discounts and commissions) of 2.5% to 2.8% and our expected Non-Rolling Chip table games win percentage of 16.5% to 17.5%.
Slot handle (volume) for the second quarter was $167.3 million, up from $139.0 million in the first quarter of 2005.
Casino revenues were $201.1 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $171.0 million in the first quarter of 2005. Adjusted property EBITDAR was $81.0 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $67.8 million in the first quarter of 2005. And Operating Income was $74.8 million in the second quarter 2005, up from $60.5 million in the first quarter 2005 The increases in adjusted property EBITDAR and operating income versus prior reported quarters were primarily driven by the strength of our VIP business.
In light of the opening of the Sands Macao midway through the second quarter of 2004, comparisons between the 2005 second quarter and 2004 second quarter are not meaningful.
Sands Expo and Convention Center Operating Results
The Sands Expo and Convention Center generated $13.4 million of net revenues and $4.0 million of adjusted property EBITDAR for the second quarter 2005 compared to net revenues of $16.6 million and adjusted property EBITDAR of $5.1 million during the second quarter of 2004. Operating income was $3.1 million versus $4.2 million during the second quarter of 2004.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, was $18.0 million for the second quarter of 2005, of which $0.8 million was related to the Sands Macao Casino and $2.0 million was related to the Sands Expo and Convention Center, as compared to net interest expense of $32.5 million during the second quarter of 2004. The year over year decline is the result of our strategic decision to retire $850.0 million of 11% Mortgage Notes, which were replaced with a combination of bonds bearing interest at a rate of 6.375% and lower cost bank debt. Interest expense also declined as a result of our redemption of $120.0 million of floating rate notes secured by assets at the Sands Macao casino during the quarter. Capitalized interest was $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2005 compared to $1.2 million during the second quarter of 2004.
3
Depreciation expense was $21.1 million for the second quarter of 2005, compared to $16.9 million for the second quarter of 2004. The increase primarily reflected the opening of the Sands Macao in the second quarter of 2004 when depreciation of that asset commenced.
Development expenses relating to our efforts in Macao, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and other projects were $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2004. The company had $0.5 million of pre-opening expenses during the second quarter of 2005 related to the opening of the Paiza Club at The Venetian and $8.4 million of pre-opening expenses related to the Sands Macao in the second quarter of 2004.
Balance Sheet Items
Unrestricted cash balances at June 30, 2005 stood at $650.2 million while restricted cash balances were $382.7 million. Of the restricted cash balances, $361.8 million is restricted for construction of the Palazzo Casino Resort, our second hotel casino resort property in Las Vegas.
As of June 30, 2005 total debt outstanding including the current portion, was $1.387 billion.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures during the second quarter of 2005 totaled $221.4 million. Of this total, $22.8 million was utilized for improvements and maintenance capital expenditures at The Venetian in Las Vegas, $99.7 million was utilized for construction and development activities in Macao, and $98.9 million was utilized for construction and development activities for the Palazzo Casino Resort.
Weidner concluded, “Construction of our new 450,000 square-foot meeting complex in Las Vegas is progressing well and is expected to come on-line in two phases during the fourth quarter of this year and the first quarter of 2006. Additionally, construction of our new Palazzo Casino Resort is well underway. In Macao, we expect to break ground in September on an expansion of the Sands Macao that will dramatically enhance the size and scope of the property and increase gaming capacity by more than 65 percent. Construction of the Venetian Macao is moving along according to plan and we have decided to build out all 3,000 rooms in the initial phase, instead of the previously announced 1,500 rooms. Leasing activity for the Grand Canal Shops mall in the Venetian Macao has commenced and we have engaged an exclusive leasing agent and mall operator for that facility.Our plans to develop additional properties on the Cotai Strip are progressing well. We have made the strategic decision to own more real estate and operating businesses in Cotai, which will allow us to benefit more from that burgeoning market. We plan to build a 400 room luxury hotel under the Four Seasons brand, which will also include approximately 600 serviced apartment units and over 100,000 square feet of retail space. We are also master planning two additional 3,000 room hotels, to be built in multiple phases, with serviced apartments and a combined 450,000 square feet of retail space across the Cotai Strip from the Venetian Macao. We will own these properties and operate them under internationally recognized third party hotel brands.”

(1) | Adjusted EBITDAR consists of operating income before depreciation, amortization, rent, pre-opening expense, development expense, the gain/loss on disposition of assets and corporate expenses. Adjusted EBITDAR and EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management, as well as industry analysts, to evaluate operations. In particular, management utilizes adjusted EBITDAR to compare the operating profitability of its casinos with those of its competitors. Rental expense is added to EBITDA because the Company leases its HVAC plant and believes this provides a comparison of operating profitability to Las Vegas competitors who own their HVAC plants. Las Vegas Sands Corp. is also presenting adjusted EBITDAR because it is used by some investors as a way to measure a company´s ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported EBITDAR as a supplemental performance measure to GAAP financial measures. In order to view the operations of their casinos on a more stand-alone basis, gaming companies, including Las Vegas Sands Corp. have historically excluded pre-opening expenses, which are non-recurring or infrequent, and corpoarte expenses, which do not relate to the management of specific casino properties from their EBITDAR calculations. When evaluating adjusted EBITDAR, investors should consider, among other factors, (1) increasing or decreasing trends in adjusted EBITDAR and (2) how adjusted EBITDAR compares to levels of debt and interest expense. However, adjusted EBITDAR should not be interpreted as an alternative to income from operations (as an indicator of operating performance) or to cash flows from operations (as a measure of liquidity) as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Las Vegas Sands Corp. has significant uses of cash flow, including capital expenditures, interest payments and debt principal repayments, which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDAR. Not all companies calculate EBITDAR in the same manner. As a result, adjusted EBITDAR as presented by Las Vegas Sands Corp. may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Adjusted property EBITDAR consists of adjusted EBITDAR for a particualr property, such as The Venetian in Las Vegas and the Sands Macao in Macao. |
(2) | ADR is Average Daily Rate and is calculated by dividing total room revenue by total rooms occupied. |
(3) | REVPAR is defined as Revenue Per Available Room and is calculated by dividing total room revenue by rooms available. |
(4) | Table games win per unit per day shown before discounts and commissions. |
(5) | Slot machine win per unit per day includes slot points. |
