In December 2015, Studio City International and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a master services agreement; and certain of its subsidiaries entered into related work agreements (collectively, the “Management and Shared Services Arrangements”) with certain of Melco’s subsidiaries with respect to services provided to and from Studio City, which expired in June 2022 and were extended to December 31, 2032 in March 2023. Under the Management and Shared Services Arrangements, certain of the corporate and administrative functions as well as operational activities of the Company are administered by staff employed by certain Melco subsidiaries, including senior management services, centralized corporate functions and operational and venue support services. Payment arrangements for the services are provided for in the individual work agreements and may vary depending on the services provided. Corporate services are charged at pre-negotiated The Company believes the costs incurred under the Studio City Casino Agreement and the allocation methods under the Management and Shared Services Arrangements are reasonable and the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s cost of doing business. However, such allocations may not be indicative of the actual expenses the Company would have incurred had it operated as an independent company for the periods presented. Details of the services and related charges are disclosed in Note 19. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Studio City International and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (b) Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. (c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company estimated the fair values using appropriate valuation methodologies and market information available as of the balance sheet date. (d) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents consist of bank time deposits placed with financial institutions with high-credit ratings and quality. (e) Restricted Cash The current portion of restricted cash represents cash deposited into bank accounts which are restricted as to withdrawal and use and the Company expects these funds will be released or utilized in accordance with the terms of the respective agreements within the next twelve months, while the non-current (f) Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk Accounts receivable, including hotel and other receivables, are typically non-interest to their carrying amounts, which reflects the net amount the Company expects to collect. The allowance for credit losses is estimated based on specific reviews of the age of the balances owed, the customers’ financial condition, management’s experience with the collection trends of the customers, current business and economic conditions, and management’s expectations of future business and economic conditions. Management believes that as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, no significant concentrations of credit risk existed for which an allowance had not already been recorded. (g) Inventories Inventories consist of retail merchandise, food and beverage items and certain operating supplies, which are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average methods. (h) Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets Prepaid expenses and other current assets represent current assets that are typically used up or expire within the normal operating cycle of the Company. The prepaid expenses as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $35,432 and $35,801, respectively, and the other current assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $3,565 and $2,920, respectively. (i) Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, and accumulated impairment, if any. Gains or losses on dispositions of property and equipment are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Major additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. During the construction and development stage of Studio City, direct and incremental costs related to the design and construction, including costs under construction contracts, duties and tariffs, equipment installations, shipping costs, payroll and payroll-benefit related costs, applicable portions of interest, including amortization of deferred financing costs, are capitalized in property and equipment. The capitalization of such costs begins when the construction and development of a project starts and ceases once the construction is substantially completed or development activity is substantially suspended. Depreciation and amortization expense related to capitalized construction costs and other property and equipment is recognized from the time each asset is placed in service. This may occur at different stages as Studio City’s facilities are completed and opened. Property and equipment are depreciated and amortized over the following estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis: Buildings 4 to 40 years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 2 to 15 years Leasehold improvements 5 to 10 years or over the lease term, whichever is shorter Motor vehicles 5 years (j) Capitalized Interest Interest, including amortization of deferred financing costs, associated with major development and construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of the projects. The capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially completed or the development activity is substantially suspended. The amount to be capitalized is determined by applying the weighted average interest rate of the Company’s outstanding borrowings to the average amount of accumulated qualifying capital expenditures for assets under construction during the year. Total interest expense incurred amounted to $144,806, $141,977 and $114,694, of which $15,239, $49,619 and $23,727 were capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. (k) Other Long-term Assets Before the amendment of the Studio City Casino Agreement on June 23, 2022, other long-term assets, net represents the payments for the future economic benefits of certain property and equipment for the operation of Studio City Casino (the “Studio City Gaming Assets”), transferred from Melco Resorts Macau to the Company, less subsequent accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment, if any. After the amendment of the Studio City Casino Agreement on June 23, 2022, other long-term assets, net represents the payments to Melco Resorts Macau from the Company for the future economic benefits of the Studio City Casino Agreement for the operation of Studio City Casino, less subsequent accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment, if any. Other long-term assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the respective estimated useful lives of the Studio City Gaming Assets, ranging from 2 to 10 years. The legal ownership of the Studio City Gaming Assets was previously retained by Melco Resorts Macau. The Reversion Assets (as defined in Note 5) (including certain of the Studio City Gaming Assets) that reverted to the Macau government at the expiration of the previous gaming The cost of the other long-term assets is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of an item of the Studio City Gaming Assets in Studio City Casino. Generally, any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of cost of other long-term assets is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the future economic benefits of the Studio City Casino Agreement generated from an item of the Studio City Gaming Assets and is recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. (l) Intangible Assets Intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives unless their lives are determined to be indefinite in which case they are not amortized. Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. The Company’s intangible assets, which are finite-lived, consist of internal-use Costs incurred to develop software for internal use are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the software of 3 years on a straight-line basis. The capitalization of such costs begins during the application development stage of the software project and ceases once the software project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Costs of specified upgrades and enhancements to the internal-use (m) Impairment of Long-lived Assets The Company evaluates the long-lived assets with finite lives to be held and used for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Company then compares the estimated future cash flows of the assets, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying values of the assets. Estimating future cash flows of the assets involves significant assumptions, including future revenue growth rates, future market conditions and gross margin. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the carrying values, no impairments are indicated. If the undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying values, then an impairment charge is recorded based on the fair values of the assets, typically measured using a discounted cash flow model involving significant assumptions, such as discount rates . I No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, an impairment of long-lived assets of $ for property and equipment, mainly due to reconfigurations and renovations at Studio City, was recognized and included in property charges and other in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. (n) Deferred Financing Costs Direct and incremental costs incurred in obtaining loans or in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the terms of the related debt agreements using the effective interest method. Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the issuance of revolving credit facilities are included in other assets, either current or non-current, (o) Land Use Right Land use right represents the upfront land premium paid for the use of land held under an stated , net of (p) Leases At the inception of the contract or upon modification, the Company will perform an assessment as to whether the contract is a lease or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. A lessee has control of an identified asset if it has both the right to direct the use of the asset and the right to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset. Operating lease right-of-use right-of-use costs incurred and is reduced by any lease incentive received. For leases where the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The expected lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Leases with an expected term of 12 months or less are not accounted for on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. The Company’s lease contracts have lease and non-lease non-lease non-lease (q) Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues from contracts with customers consist of revenue from casino contract, sales of rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other goods and services. Revenue from casino contract represents revenue arising from the Studio City Casino Agreement for the operations of Studio City Casino by Melco Resorts Macau. Under the Studio City Casino Agreement, Melco Resorts Macau deducts gaming taxes and the costs incurred in connection with its operations from Studio City Casino’s gross gaming revenues, including the standalone selling prices of complimentary services within Studio City provided to the Studio City gaming patrons of Studio City Casino. The residual amount which the Company receives as revenue is captioned as revenue from casino contract. The Company has concluded that it is not the controlling entity to the arrangements and recognizes the revenue from casino contract on a net basis. Non-gaming The Company follows the accounting standards for reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent, when accounting for the operations of one of its externally managed hotels and concluded that it is the controlling entity and is the principal to this arrangement. For the operations of this externally managed hotel, as the Company is the owner of the hotel property, the hotel manager operates the hotel under a management agreement providing management services to the Company, and the Company receives all rewards and takes substantial risks associated with the hotel’s business, it is the principal and the transactions are, therefore, recognized on a gross basis. Minimum operating and right to use fees representing lease revenues, adjusted for contractual base fees and operating fee escalations, are included in mall revenues and are recognized over the terms of the related agreements on a straight-line basis. Contract and Contract-Related Liabilities In providing goods and services to customers, there may be a timing difference between cash receipts from customers and recognition of revenues, resulting in a contract or contract-related liability. The Company’s primary types of liabilities related to contracts with customers are advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales which represent cash received in advance for goods or services yet to be provided. These amounts are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and will be recognized as revenues when the goods or services are provided or the events are held. Decreases in this balance generally represent the recognition of revenues and increases in the balance represent additional deposits made by customers. The deposits are expected to primarily be recognized as revenues within one year. Advance customer deposits and ticket sales of $4,432 as of December 31, 2023 increased by $2,639 from the balance of $1,793 as of December 31, 2022. Advance customer deposits and ticket sales of $1,793 as of December 31, 2022 decreased by $466 from the balance of $2,259 as of December 31, 2021.

Advertising and promotional costs included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations were $22,668, $3,692 and $4,977 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Interest Income Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis at the stated interest rate and is recorded in interest income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations All transactions in currencies other than functional currencies of Studio City International and its subsidiaries during the year are remeasured at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities existing at the balance sheet date denominated in currencies other than functional currencies are remeasured at the exchange rates existing on that date. Exchange differences are recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The functional currency of Studio City International is the U.S. dollar (“$” or “US$”) and the functional currency of most of Studio City International’s foreign subsidiaries is the local currency in which the subsidiary operates. All assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and all income and expense items are translated at the average rates of exchange over the year. All exchange differences arising from the translation of foreign subsidiaries’ financial statements are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). (v) Comprehensive Loss and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Losses Comprehensive loss includes net loss and other non-shareholder As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive losses consisted solely of foreign currency translation adjustments, net of tax and participation interest. (w) Income Tax The Company is subject to income taxes in Macau and Hong Kong where it operates. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities. The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by tax authorities in the jurisdictions where it operates. The Company assesses potentially unfavorable outcomes of such examinations based on accounting standards for uncertain income taxes. These accounting standards utilize a two-step % likely, based on cumulative probability. (x) Net Loss Attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited Per Class A Ordinary Share Basic net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited by the weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited adjusted for participation interest by the weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding during the year adjusted to include the number of additional Class A ordinary shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive securities had been issued and the if-converted Basic and diluted net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share does not include Class B ordinary shares as such shares do not participate in the loss of Studio City International. As a result, Class B ordinary shares are not considered participating securities and are not included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding for purposes of computing net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per share. The weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share consisted of the following: Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding used in the calculation of basic net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share 770,352,700 710,582,947 370,352,700 Incremental weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares from assumed exchange of Class B ordinary shares to Class A ordinary shares under the if-converted — 72,511,760 — Weighted average number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited per Class A ordinary share 770,352,700 783,094,707 370,352,700 Anti-dilutive Class A ordinary shares under the if-converted 72,511,760 — 72,511,760 (y) Recent Changes in Accounting Standards Recent Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted The Company has evaluated the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these financial statements, and anticipated the future adoption of these pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Authoritative literature provides a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the input to valuation techniques used to measure fair values into three broad levels. The level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurements in its entirety is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows: • Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. • Level 2 – inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. • Level 3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The carrying values of cash equivalents, long-term deposits and other long-term liabilities approximated fair value s The estimated fair values of long-term debt as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, were approximately $2,113,560 and $1,959,195, respectively, as compared to their carrying values, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue premiums, of $2,347,128 and $2,450,128, respectively. Fair values were estimated using quoted market prices and were classified as level 1 in the fair value hierarchy for the 2020 Studio City Notes, 2021 5.000% Studio City Notes and the 2022 7.000% Studio City Secured Notes. Fair value for the 2016 Studio City Credit Facilities approximated its carrying value as the instrument carried variable interest rates that approximated the market rates and was classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Under the Studio City Casino Agreement, Melco Resorts Macau agreed to operate the Studio City Casino since the Company does not hold a gaming concession in Macau. In addition, certain conditions imposed by the Macau government relating to the previous agreement, including in relation to shareholding requirements for certain direct and indirect shareholders of Studio City Entertainment, were no longer applicable.

These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. |

The capitalization of such costs begins when the construction and development of a project starts and ceases once the construction is substantially completed or development activity is substantially suspended. Depreciation and amortization expense related to capitalized construction costs and other property and equipment is recognized from the time each asset is placed in service. This may occur at different stages as Studio City’s facilities are completed and opened.
