**SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS** 

This annual report contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events, including our future operating results and conditions, our prospects and our future financial performance and condition, all of which are largely based on our current expectations and projections. All statements other than statements of historical fact in this annual report are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performances or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Moreover, because we operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry where amendments to the gaming law were adopted and implemented by the Macau government, may become highly leveraged and operate in Macau, a market with intense competition, new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) changes in the gaming market and visitations in Macau, (ii) local and global economic conditions, (iii) capital and credit market volatility, (iv) our anticipated growth strategies, (v) risks associated with the implementation of the amended Macau gaming law by the Macau government, (vi) gaming authority and other governmental approvals and regulations, and (vii) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as "may", "will", "expect", "anticipate", "target", "aim", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "believe", "potential", "continue", "is/are likely to" or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements made in this annual report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this annual report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this annual report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

**EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION** 

The majority of our current revenues are denominated in H.K. dollars, while our current expenses are denominated predominantly in Patacas and H.K. dollars and in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, in U.S. dollars. The non-financial pages of this annual report include all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars at a rate of HK$7.781193 to US$1.00, unless otherwise noted.

The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority has maintained a trading band range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the U.S. dollar link at that rate range and, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.

The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 to MOP1.03. All translations from Patacas to U.S. dollars in this annual report were made at the exchange rate of MOP8.014619 to US$1.00.

In this annual report, U.S. dollar equivalents of H.K. dollar amounts of indebtedness are based on the prevailing exchange rate on the relevant transaction date, except for the indebtedness balance translations as of the balance sheet date, which are based on the prevailing exchange rate on the applicable balance sheet date.

**MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS** 

The following discussion should be read in connection with "Selected Consolidated Financial Information" and our consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included elsewhere in this annual report. This annual report includes the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for future periods. Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are forward-looking statements. See "*Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements*" regarding these statements.

**Overview** 

We are a developer, owner and operator of integrated resort facilities. Our subsidiary Melco Resorts Macau is one of six companies licensed, through concessions, to operate casinos in Macau.

We currently have two major casino-based operations in Macau, namely, City of Dreams and Altira Macau, and non-casino based operations in Macau at our Mocha Clubs. We operate the Studio City Casino pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement. We also provide non-gaming services to Studio City pursuant to the Master Services Agreements.

Our current and future operations are designed to cater to a broad spectrum of gaming patrons, from high-stakes rolling chip gaming patrons to gaming patrons seeking a broader entertainment experience. We currently own and operate three Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotels in Macau – Altira Macau, Morpheus and Nüwa – and have received 12 Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star and one Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star recognitions across our properties in 2026. We seek to attract patrons throughout Asia and, in particular, from China.

Our current operating facilities are focused on the Macau gaming market. According to the DSEC, visitor arrivals to Macau increased by 14.7% on a year-over-year basis in 2025 as compared to 2024 while, according to the DICJ, gross gaming revenues in Macau rose by 9.1% on a year-over-year basis in 2025. According to the DICJ, gross gaming revenues in Macau in the first quarter of 2026 rose by 14.3% as compared to that in the first quarter of 2025 but were still 13.5% lower than in the first quarter of 2019.

**City of Dreams** 

City of Dreams had an average of approximately 439 gaming tables and approximately 635 gaming machines in 2025, compared to an average of approximately 430 gaming tables and approximately 613 gaming machines in 2024. Following the closure of Grand Dragon Casino in September 2025 and Mocha Hotel Royal in December 2025, 15 gaming tables and 137 gaming machines were re-allocated to City of Dreams. Morpheus offers approximately 783 rooms, suites and villas. Nüwa offers approximately 286 guest rooms, suites and villas, and the Grand Hyatt Macau hotel, comprising two towers within City of Dreams, offers approximately 763 guest rooms and suites. The Countdown is currently undergoing renovations as part of its rebranding and is expected to be launched in the third quarter of 2026 with approximately 150 high end luxury suites with an average room size in excess of 1,000 square feet. In addition, City of Dreams includes 41 food and beverage outlets, approximately 110 retail outlets, a wet stage performance theater, recreation and leisure facilities, including health and fitness clubs, swimming pools, spas and salons and banquet and meeting facilities. The wet stage performance theater with approximately 2,000 seats features *House of Dancing Water*, which had been temporarily closed since June 2020 and was re-launched in May 2025. The Para nightclub offers approximately 2,232 square meters (equivalent to approximately 24,025 square feet) of live entertainment space. City of Dreams targets premium market and rolling chip patrons from regional markets across Asia.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, operating revenues generated from City of Dreams amounted to US$2.90 billion and US$2.43 billion, representing 64.2% and 61.0% of our total operating revenues, respectively.

------

**Altira Macau** 

Altira Macau had an average of approximately 31 gaming tables and 160 gaming machines operated under the brand Mocha at Altira Macau in 2025, compared to an average of approximately 39 gaming tables and 134 gaming machines operated under the brand Mocha at Altira Macau in 2024. Following the closure of Mocha Grand Dragon Hotel in November 2025, 100 gaming machines were re-allocated to Altira Macau. In addition, Altira Macau had approximately 216 hotel rooms as of December 31, 2025 and features several fine dining and casual restaurants and recreation and leisure facilities. Altira Macau caters to the premium mass and mass operations.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, operating revenues generated from Altira Macau amounted to US$107.9 million and US$127.2 million, representing 2.4% and 3.2% of our total operating revenues, respectively.

**Mocha and Other** 

The Mocha and Other segment included the operations of the Grand Dragon Casino before its closure in September 2025. This segment has been renamed to the Mocha segment effective on September 23, 2025.

Mocha Clubs had an average of approximately 810 gaming machines in operation (excluding approximately 160 gaming machines at Altira Macau) in 2025, compared to an average of approximately 882 gaming machines in operation (excluding approximately 134 gaming machines at Altira Macau) in 2024. Mocha Clubs focus primarily on general mass market patrons, including day-trip customers, outside the conventional casino setting. Grand Dragon Casino had an average of approximately 15 gaming tables in 2025, compared to an average of approximately 16 gaming tables in 2024. As part of our development strategy and in accordance with Macau law, Grand Dragon Casino and three of the six Mocha Clubs, namely Mocha Kuong Fat, Mocha Grand Dragon Hotel and Mocha Hotel Royal, ceased operations progressively between September and December 2025. Following these closures, 15 gaming tables and 137 gaming machines were re-allocated to City of Dreams, and 100 gaming machines and 198 gaming machines were re-allocated to Altira Macau and Studio City, respectively. The Chief Executive of Macau has approved the engagement of a wholly-owned management company by Melco Resorts Macau and the respective management agreement in connection with the continuing operations of Mocha Inner Harbour, Mocha Hotel Sintra and Mocha Golden Dragon beyond December 31, 2025, and an amendment agreement to the Concession Contract was signed in February 2026 to reflect that these three Mocha Clubs will continue to be operated under the engagement of such management company effective from January 1, 2026, subject to compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, operating revenues generated from Mocha and Other amounted to US$107.2 million and US$123.3 million, representing 2.4% and 3.1% of our total operating revenues, respectively.

**Summary of Financial Results** 

For the year ended December 31, 2025, our total operating revenues were US$4.51 billion, an increase of 12.8% from US$3.99 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was US$286.2 million, as compared to US$0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change was primarily attributable to better performance in rolling chip, mass market table games and non-gaming operations at City of Dreams as a result of the continued recovery in inbound tourism to Macau in 2025 and the re-launch of House of Dancing Water in May 2025, partially offset by higher operating costs for the increase in business activities. Net income/loss from Studio City Casino gaming operations are reimbursed to/from Studio City Entertainment pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement. Such reimbursement is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The revenues and costs from the provision of management services to affiliated companies are reflected in entertainment, retail and other revenues and operating expenses, respectively, in the consolidated statement of operations.

The following summarizes the results of our operations for the years indicated:

**Factors Affecting Our Current and Future Results** 

Our results of operations are and will be affected most significantly by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Policies, legislations and campaigns implemented by the PRC government, including restrictions on travel,
anti-corruption campaigns, monitoring of cross-border currency movement and adoption of measures to eliminate perceived channels of illicit cross-border currency movements, restrictions on currency withdrawal, scrutiny of marketing activities in
China or measures taken by the PRC government, including criminalization of certain conduct, to deter marketing of gaming activities to mainland China residents by foreign casinos, slowdown of economic growth in China, travel and visa policies, may
lead to a decline and limit the recovery and growth in the number of patrons visiting our properties and the spending amount of such patrons;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The gaming and leisure market in Macau is developing and the competitive landscape is expected to evolve as more gaming and non-gaming facilities are developed in the regions where our properties are located. More supply of such facilities in the Cotai region of Macau will intensify the competition in the
business that we operate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Greater regulatory scrutiny, including increased audits and inspections, in relation to movement of capital and
anti-money laundering and other financial crime. Anti-money laundering, anti-bribery and corruption and sanctions and counter-terrorism financing laws and regulations have become increasingly complex and subject to greater regulatory scrutiny and
supervision by regulators globally and may increase our compliance costs and any potential non-compliances of such laws and regulations could have an adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Enactment of new laws, or amendments to existing laws with more stringent requirements, in relation to personal
data, including, among others, collection, use and/or transmission of personal data, and as to which there may be limited precedent on their interpretation and application, may increase operating costs and/or adversely impact our ability to market
to our customers and guests. In addition, any non-compliance with such laws may result in damage of our reputation and/or subject us to lawsuits, fines and other penalties as well as restrictions on our use or
transfer of data;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Increases in cybersecurity and ransomware attacks around the world, including in the gaming and hospitality
industries, and the need to continually evaluate, enhance and improve our internal process, systems and technology infrastructure to comply with the increasing cybersecurity, data privacy and data protection laws, regulations and requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our MRM 2015 Credit Facilities and MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities, which expose us to interest rate risk, as
discussed under "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Interest Rate Risk";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The currency of our operations, our indebtedness and presentation of our consolidated financial statements, which
expose us to foreign exchange rate risk, as discussed under "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Foreign Exchange Risk"; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our historical financial results may not be characteristic of our potential future results as we continue to
expand and refine our service offerings at our properties and develop and open new properties.

**Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)** 

We use the following KPIs to evaluate our casino operations, including table games and gaming machines:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Rolling chip volume*: the amount of non-negotiable chips net buy in plus the amount of cash chips converted to non-negotiable chips.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Rolling chip win rate*: rolling chip table games win (calculated before discounts, commissions, other
incentives and allocating casino revenues related to goods and services provided to gaming patrons on a complimentary basis) as a percentage of rolling chip volume.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Mass market table games drop*: the amount wagered in the mass market table games operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Mass market table games hold percentage*: mass market table games win (calculated before
discounts, commissions, other incentives and allocating casino revenues related to goods and services provided to gaming patrons on a complimentary basis) as a percentage of mass market table games drop.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Table games win*: the amount of wagers won net of wagers lost on gaming tables that is retained and
recorded as casino revenues. Table games win is calculated before discounts, commissions, other incentives and allocating casino revenues related to goods and services provided to gaming patrons on a complimentary basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Gaming machine handle*: the total amount wagered in gaming machines.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Gaming machine win rate*: gaming machine win (calculated before other incentives and allocating casino
revenues related to goods and services provided to gaming patrons on a complimentary basis) expressed as a percentage of gaming machine handle.

In the rolling chip market operations, customers purchase identifiable chips known as non-negotiable chips, or rolling chips, from the casino cage, and there is no deposit into a gaming table's drop box for rolling chips purchased from the cage. Rolling chip volume and mass market table games drop are not equivalent. Rolling chip volume is a measure of amounts of non-negotiable chips net buy in plus the amount of cash chips converted into non-negotiable chips. Mass market table games drop measures buy in. Rolling chip volume is generally substantially higher than mass market table games drop. As these volumes are the denominator used in calculating win rate or hold percentage, with the same use of gaming win as the numerator, the win rate is generally lower in the rolling chip market operations than the hold percentage in the mass market table games operations.

Our combined expected rolling chip win rate across our properties is in the range of 2.85% to 3.15%.

We use the following KPIs to evaluate our hotel operations:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Average daily rate*: calculated by dividing total room revenues including complimentary rooms (less service
charges, if any) by total rooms occupied, including complimentary rooms, i.e., average price of occupied rooms per day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Occupancy rate*: the average percentage of available hotel rooms occupied, including complimentary rooms,
during a period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Revenue per available room, or REVPAR*: calculated by dividing total room revenues including complimentary
rooms (less service charges, if any) by total rooms available, thereby representing a combination of hotel average daily room rates and occupancy.

Complimentary rooms are included in the calculation of the above room-related KPIs. The average daily rate of complimentary rooms is typically lower than the average daily rate for cash rooms. The occupancy rate and REVPAR would be lower if complimentary rooms were excluded from the calculation. As not all available rooms are occupied, average daily room rates are normally higher than revenue per available room.

**Critical Accounting Estimates** 

Management's discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements. Our consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require that management applies significant judgment in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates those estimates and judgments which are made based on information obtained from our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and outside sources that are currently available to us, and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and therefore actual results could differ from our estimates. We believe that the critical accounting policies discussed below affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

------

***Property and Equipment***

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had net property and equipment of US$1.98 billion and US$2.00 billion, representing 33.1% and 34.1% of our total assets respectively. Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, and accumulated impairment, if any. We depreciate property and equipment on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The useful lives are estimated based on factors including the nature of the assets, its relationship to other assets, our operating plans and anticipated use and other economic and legal factors that impose limits. The remaining estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are periodically reviewed. Refer to note 2(h) to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for further details of estimated useful lives of the property and equipment.

***Impairment of Long-lived assets, Intangible assets and Goodwill***

We evaluate our property and equipment and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. If an indicator of impairment exists, we first group our assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the "asset group"). Secondly, we estimate the undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group which involves significant assumptions, including future revenue growth rates and cost inflation. The future cash flows are derived based on management historical experience and market condition which are consistent with our budget and strategic plan. If the sum of undiscounted cash flows exceeds the carrying value, no impairment is indicated. If the sum of undiscounted cash flows does not exceed the carrying value, then an impairment is measured based on fair value compared to carrying value, with fair value typically based on a discounted cash flow model involving significant assumptions, such as discount rates. If an asset is still under development, future cash flows include remaining construction costs. Future changes to our estimates and assumptions based upon changes in operating results, macro-economic factors or management's intentions may result in future changes to the recoverability of our asset groups.

We review the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment at least on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was associated with Mocha Clubs, a reporting unit, which arose from the acquisition of Mocha Slot Group Limited and its subsidiaries by our Company in 2006. When performing the impairment analysis for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, we will first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. If the qualitative factors indicate that the carrying amount of the reporting unit is more likely than not to exceed the fair value, then a quantitative impairment test is performed. No impairment of goodwill was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024.

To perform quantitative impairment test of goodwill, we perform an assessment that consists of a comparison of the carrying value of a reporting unit with its fair value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we will recognize an impairment for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We determine the fair value of our reporting unit based on income approach through the application of discounted cash flow method. The future cash flows of the reporting unit involve significant assumptions, including future revenue growth rates and cost inflation. The future cash flows are derived based on management historical experience and market condition which are consistent with our budget and strategic plan. For the impairment test of Mocha Clubs as a reporting unit, the rates used to discount the cash flow are 13.2% and 10.5% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively. To perform quantitative impairment test of the trademarks of Mocha Clubs, discounted cash flow approach is adopted which is based on relief-from-royalty method. If the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference. Future changes to our estimates and assumptions based upon changes in operating results, macro-economic factors or management's intentions may result in future changes to the fair value of the reporting unit and trademarks.

Effective from June 9, 2025, the date which Melco Resorts announced the development of Mocha Clubs, the estimated useful lives of the Mocha Clubs trademarks were changed from indefinite useful lives to finite useful lives. Accordingly, the carrying amount is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period of the Concession and the projection period of Mocha Clubs' future cash flow is also adjusted to the end of the Concession period for impairment testing. During the year ended December 31, 2025, as a result of three Mocha Clubs ceasing operations between the period from September to December 2025, the Company recognized an impairment of goodwill in relation to the Mocha and Other segment of US$57.9 million.

------

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the performance of Altira Macau had not improved and a further impairment of long-lived assets of US$4.1 million and US$3.3 million were recognized respectively. The fair values of the long-lived assets of Altira Macau were estimated based on a combination of income and cost approaches and the discount rates adopted in income approach for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 14.0% and 12.6% respectively.

***Allowances for credit losses***

Financial instruments that potentially subject our Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of casino accounts receivable. We issue credit for gaming pursuant to gaming credit facilities entered into with casino customers, and previously, with gaming promoters, following a review of their creditworthiness. These receivables can be offset against commissions payable and any other payments due by us to customers, and previously to gaming promoters.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, a substantial portion of our markers issued pursuant to gaming credit facilities were due from customers residing in various countries and from licensed gaming promoters. Business and economic conditions, the legal enforceability of gaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant circumstances in these countries could affect the collectability of receivables from customers and gaming promoters.

Accounts receivable, including casino, hotel and other receivables, are typically non-interest bearing and are recorded at amortized cost. Accounts are written off when management deems it is probable the receivables are uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recorded when received. An estimated allowance for credit losses is maintained to reduce our receivables to their carrying amounts and reflects the net amount the Company expects to collect. The allowance for credit losses is estimated based on our specific reviews of the age of the balances owed, the customers' financial condition, management's experience with the collection trends of customers, current business and economic conditions, and management's expectations of future business and economic conditions.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's allowances for casino credit losses were 51.1% and 48.0% of gross casino accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, a 100 basis-point change in the estimated allowances for credit losses as a percentage of casino receivables would change the allowances for credit losses by approximately US$2.3 million and US$2.6 million respectively.

***Income Tax***

Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the 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. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded valuation allowances of US$105.8 million and US$128.2 million, respectively, as management believes it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. Our assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, and the duration of statutory carryforward periods. To the extent that the financial results of our operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the valuation allowances will be reduced.

***Litigation and Contingency Estimates***

We are subject to certain legal proceedings which relate to matters arising out of the Company's ordinary course of business. We estimate the accruals for the claims of these legal proceedings based on all relevant facts and circumstances currently available and will recognize these claims as liabilities when it is determined such contingencies are both probable and reasonably estimable.

------

***Other Estimates***

In addition to the critical accounting estimates described above, there are other accounting estimates within the consolidated financial statements. Management believes the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements. See note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for further information on significant accounting policies.

**Results of Operations** 

***Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024***

***Revenues***

Our total operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 were US$4.51 billion, an increase of US$0.51 billion, or 12.8%, from US$3.99 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in total operating revenues was primarily attributable to better performance in rolling chip, mass market table games and non-gaming operations at City of Dreams, as well as increased casino revenues generated from the operations of Studio City Casino by our subsidiary, Melco Resorts Macau, the gaming concessionaire. Such increase mainly resulted from the continued recovery in inbound tourism to Macau in 2025 and the re-launch of House of Dancing Water in May 2025. Net income/loss from Studio City Casino gaming operations are reimbursed to/from Studio City Entertainment pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement. Such reimbursement is included in general and administrative expenses.

Average net win per gaming machine per day was US$261 for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of US$6, or 2.3%, from US$255 for the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Mocha and Other.* As part of the Company's development strategy and in accordance with Macau law, Grand Dragon Casino and three of the six Mocha Clubs, namely Mocha Kuong Fat, Mocha Grand Dragon Hotel and Mocha Hotel Royal, ceased operations during the period from September to December 2025. Following the closures, 15 gaming tables and 435 gaming machines were re-allocated to the Company's other gaming areas in Macau. Mass market table games drop was US$155.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a decrease from US$231.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to the closure of Grand Dragon Casino in September 2025. The mass market table games hold percentage was 17.0 % for the year ended December 31, 2025, increasing from 16.8% for the year ended December 31, 2024. Average net win per gaming machine per day for the year ended December 31, 2025 was US$283, an increase of US$9, or 3.2%, from US$274 for the year ended December 31, 2024.

------

*Rooms.* Room revenues (including complimentary rooms) were US$183.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing an increase of US$9.2 million, or 5.3%, from US$173.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased occupancy as a result of a year-over-year increase in inbound tourism to Macau. City of Dreams' average daily rate, occupancy rate and REVPAR were US$220, 98% and US$215, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to US$211, 93% and US$197, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Altira Macau's average daily rate, occupancy rate and REVPAR were US$133, 97% and US$129, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to US$133, 95% and US$127, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Food and beverage*. Food and beverage revenues (including complimentary food and beverage) were US$118.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing an increase of US$3.2 million, or 2.8%, from US$115.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Entertainment, retail and other.* Entertainment, retail and other revenues (including complimentary entertainment services) increased by US$47.3 million, or 17.1%, to US$324.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from US$276.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the re-launch of House of Dancing Water in May 2025 and the increase in management fee income resulting from the increase in business activities during the year ended December 31, 2025.

***Operating costs and expenses***

Total operating costs and expenses were US$4.06 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$3.68 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Casino.* Casino expenses increased by US$0.19 billion, or 7.7%, to US$2.63 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 from US$2.44 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in gaming taxes at City of Dreams resulting from increased gaming volumes and associated higher revenues, and an increase in casino expenses at Studio City Casino due to its improved performance, for which Melco Resorts Macau is reimbursed pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement.

*Rooms.* Room expenses, which represent the costs of operating the hotel facilities at Altira Macau and City of Dreams, were US$64.2 million and US$55.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses and other expenses, which was in-line with higher room revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Food and beverage.* Food and beverage expenses were US$105.2 million and US$100.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses, which was in-line with higher food and beverage revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Entertainment, retail and other.* Entertainment, retail and other expenses were US$42.2 million and US$19.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses and higher operating costs as a result of the re-launch of House of Dancing Water in May 2025 and an increase in business activities during the year ended December 31, 2025.

*General and administrative.* General and administrative expenses increased by US$101.8 million, or 12.6%, to US$908.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from US$806.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the higher reimbursement of net income from Studio City Casino to Studio City Entertainment pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement as a result of improved performance at Studio City Casino in the year ended December 31, 2025, increase in payroll expenses, marketing expenses as well as higher trademark license fee expenses in the year ended December 31, 2025.

------

*Pre-opening costs.* Pre-opening costs were US$29.3 million and US$12.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These costs related primarily to personnel training, marketing, advertising and administrative costs in connection with new or start-up operations. Higher pre-opening costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 were due to the re-launch of House of Dancing Water in May 2025.

*Amortization of land use rights.* Amortization expenses for the land use rights continued to be recognized on a straight-line basis and were US$8.0 million for both years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

*Depreciation and amortization.* Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by US$17.7 million, or 7.9%, to US$242.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from US$224.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to more gaming equipment as well as more property enhancements that placed into service during the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Property charges and other*. Property charges and other for the year ended December 31, 2025 were US$36.6 million, which primarily included impairment on goodwill in relation to the Mocha Clubs and asset impairments in Altira Macau, partially offset by reversal of provision for litigation claims related to junket player deposits. In 2025, we recognized an impairment of goodwill in relation to the Mocha and Other segment of US$57.9 million as a result of three Mocha Clubs ceasing operations between the period from September to December 2025. Property charges and other for the year ended December 31, 2024 were US$10.7 million, which primarily included the litigation claims related to junket player deposits, repairs and maintenance costs incurred as a result of typhoons and remodeling, and asset impairments in Altira Macau.

***Non-operating expenses, net***

Net non-operating expenses consist of interest income, interest expense, other financing costs, foreign exchange gains (losses), net, loss on extinguishment of debt as well as other non-operating income, net.

Interest income was US$88.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$20.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily generated from the loan interest income from an intercompany loan made to Melco Resorts Services Limited, an affiliated company of the Company, during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Interest expense was US$312.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$324.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest expense of US$27.8 million on 2025 MRF Senior Notes as a result of the full repayment at maturity on June 6, 2025 and lower interest expense of US$5.5 million on 2026 MRF Senior Notes as a result of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes Tender Offer and early redemption of the remaining 2026 MRF Senior Notes in October 2025, partially offset by higher interest expense of US$16.8 million on the 2032 MRF Senior Notes issued in April 2024 and US$8.8 million interest on the 2033 MRF Senior Notes issued in September 2025.

Other financing costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to US$4.9 million, compared to US$6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in other financing costs was primarily due to a decrease in loan commitment fees as a result of the net drawdowns of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Loss on extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2025 was US$0.8 million and was associated with the 2026 MRF Senior Notes Tender Offer and early redemption of the remaining 2026 MRF Senior Notes. No loss on extinguishment of debt occurred in 2024.

***Income tax expense***

Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to US$7.7 million compared to US$6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The income tax expense was primarily attributable to payments in lieu of Macau Complementary Tax otherwise due by Melco Resorts Macau's shareholders on dividends distributable to them by Melco Resorts Macau of US$7.8 million. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 2.6%, as compared to 92.04% for the year ended December 31, 2024. Such rates differ from the statutory Macau Complementary Tax rate of 12%, where the majority of the Company's operations are located, primarily due to the effects of expenses for which no income tax benefit is receivable, expired tax losses, different tax rate of subsidiaries operating in other jurisdiction and profits generated by gaming operations being exempted from Macau Complementary Tax for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our management currently does not expect to realize significant income tax benefits associated with net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets generated by our Macau operations. However, to the extent that the financial results of our Macau operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, we will be able to reduce the valuation allowance related to the net operating losses and other deferred tax assets.

------

***Net income***

As a result of the foregoing, we had net income of US$286.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources** 

We have relied and intend to rely on our cash generated from our operations and our debt and equity financings to meet our funding requirements and repay our indebtedness, as the case may be.

As of December 31, 2025, we held cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (being cash collateral for concession-related guarantees issued to the Macau government and security under credit facilities) of US$493.1 million and US$125.0 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, HK$8.34 billion (equivalent to US$1.07 billion) of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities and HK$1.0 million (equivalent to US$0.1 million) of the revolving credit facility under the MRM 2015 Credit Facilities were available for future drawdown, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.

---

***Operating Activities***

Operating cash flows are generally affected by changes in operating income and accounts receivable with VIP table games play and hotel operations conducted on a cash and credit basis and the remainder of the business including mass market table games play, gaming machine play, food and beverage, and entertainment are conducted primarily on a cash basis.

Net cash provided by operating activities was US$507.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$241.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change was primarily driven by improved operating performance resulting from higher business volumes in 2025.

------

***Investing Activities***

Net cash used in investing activities was US$191.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to US$128.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change was primarily due to the increase in payments for acquisition of property and equipment, and nil repayments of loans or advances by an affiliated company to us during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$177.1 million and payments for acquisition of intangible and other assets of US$14.7 million.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$128.0 million and payments for acquisition of intangible and other assets of US$20.8 million, partially offset by repayment of loans or advances from an affiliated company to us of US$20.0 million.

Our total payments for acquisition of property and equipment were US$177.1 million and US$128.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Such capital expenditures were mainly associated with our development projects, as well as enhancement to our integrated resort offerings.

***Financing Activities***

Net cash used in financing activities amounted to US$314.6 million for year ended December 31, 2025, which primarily represented (i) the full redemption of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of US$1.00 billion of the 2025 MRF Senior Notes, (ii) redemption of the remaining aggregated principal amount outstanding of US$357.9 million of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes, (iii) repayments of aggregate principal amount outstanding of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities of US$280.5 million, (vi) redemption of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes for an aggregate principal amount outstanding of US$142.1 million; and (v) payment of dividends of US$20.0 million, partially offset by (vi) the proceeds from the drawdown of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities of US$1.00 billion and (vii) the proceeds from the issuance of 2033 MRF Senior Notes of US$500.0 million.

Net cash used in financing activities amounted to US$269.3 million for year ended December 31, 2024, which primarily represented (i) the repayments of aggregate principal amount outstanding of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities of US$994.2 million, (ii) payment of dividends of US$89.0 million; and (iii) payments of financing costs of US$27.6 million, partially offset by (iv) the proceeds from the issuance of 2032 MRF Senior Notes of US$750.0 million; and (v) the proceeds from the drawdown of the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities of US$100.3 million.

Major changes in our indebtedness during the year ended and subsequent to December 31, 2025 are summarized below.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, MCO Nominee One drew down HK$5.67 billion (equivalent to US$719.9 million) in aggregate principal amount on a net basis under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities.

------

On February 25, 2025, pursuant to the MN1 2024 Amendment and Restatement under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities, an incremental facility of HK$387.5 million (equivalent to US$49.8 million) was established to increase the available commitments under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities from HK$14.85 billion (equivalent to US$1.91 billion) to HK$15.24 billion (equivalent to US$1.96 billion), subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.

On June 6, 2025, we redeemed the aggregate principal amount outstanding of US$1.00 billion of the 2025 MRF Senior Notes.

In June 2025, MCO Nominee One entered into interest rate swap arrangements with aggregate notional amount of HK$5.88 billion (equivalent to US$755.7 million) to manage interest rate risk on the loans drawn under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities.

On September 24, 2025, we issued US$500.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of the 2033 MRF Senior Notes. The proceeds were used to settle the 2026 MRF Senior Notes Tender Offer and early redemption of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes. US$142.1 million in an aggregate principal amount of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes tendered in the 2026 MRF Senior Notes Tender Offer was settled on September 24, 2025, while the remaining aggregate principal amount outstanding of US$357.9 million of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes following the completion of the 2026 MRF Senior Notes Tender Offer was redeemed on October 25, 2025.

In September 2025, we entered into two cross-currency swap arrangements to manage foreign exchange rate risk associated with the interest and principal payments under the 2033 MRF Senior Notes.

During the period from January 1, 2026 through April 24, 2026, MCO Nominee One repaid additional HK$467.0 million (equivalent to US$59.8 million) in aggregate principal amount outstanding under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities, together with accrued interest.

For further details of the above indebtedness, see note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report, which includes information regarding the type of debt facilities used, the extent to which borrowings are at fixed rates and still available to us, the maturity profile of such debt facilities, the currency and interest rate structure, the charge on our assets and the nature and extent of any restrictions on our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to transfer funds as cash dividends, loans or advances. See "—Long-term Indebtedness and Contractual Obligations" for details of the maturity profile of debt and "—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" for further understanding of our hedging of interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk exposure.

**Other Financing and Liquidity Matters** 

We may obtain financing in the form of, among other things, equity or debt, including additional bank loans or high yield, mezzanine or other debt, or rely on our operating cash flow to fund the maintenance, enhancement and development of our projects. We expect to have significant capital expenditures in the future as we continue to maintain, enhance and develop our properties.

We have relied, and intend in the future to rely, on our operating cash flow and different forms of financing to meet our funding needs and repay our indebtedness, as the case may be.

The timing of any future debt and equity financing activities will be dependent on our funding needs, our development and construction schedule, the availability of funds on terms acceptable to us and prevailing market conditions. We may carry out activities from time to time to strengthen our financial position and ability to better fund our business operations and expansion plans. Such activities may include refinancing existing debt, monetizing assets, sale-and-leaseback transactions or other similar activities. Any such activities will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors and the amounts involved may be material.

Our material cash requirements arise from the development and continuous enhancement of our properties and the payment of interest expenses and repayment of principal relating to our indebtedness.

------

Any other future developments may be subject to further financing and a number of other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

As of December 31, 2025, we had capital commitments mainly for the acquisition of property and equipment for City of Dreams totaling US$74.8 million. In addition, we have committed investment in connection with the Concession Contract and contingent liabilities arising in the ordinary course of business. For further details for our commitments and contingencies, see note 19 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.

We are committed to prudent balance sheet management. We believe that continued EBITDA growth can lead to a healthy recovery of free cash flow and a natural deleveraging of our business. As we have completed the construction of our major development projects, we intend to focus our capital expenditure on the maintenance and enhancement of our existing properties and do not expect a material increase in capital expenditure in the near term.

**Long-term Indebtedness and Contractual Obligations** 

Our total long-term indebtedness and other contractual obligations as of December 31, 2025 are summarized below.

(1) See note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for further
details on these debt facilities.

(2) Amounts for all periods represent our estimated interest payments on our debt facilities based upon amounts
outstanding and HIBOR as of December 31, 2025 plus the applicable interest rate spread in accordance with the respective debt agreements. Actual rates will vary.

(3) See note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for further
details on these lease liabilities.

(4) Represents annual premium with a fixed portion and a variable portion based on the number and type of gaming
tables and machines that Melco Resorts Macau is currently approved to operate by the Macau government for our gaming concession in Macau. The variable gaming tax for our gaming concession in Macau as disclosed in note 19(b) to the consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report are not included in this table.

(5) The gaming and gaming support areas of the City of Dreams Casino, the Altira Casino and the Studio City Casino
with an area of 31,227.3 square meters, 17,128.8 square meters and 28,784.3 square meters, respectively, and related gaming equipment and utensils (collectively referred to as the "Reversion Assets") are currently owned by the Macau
government. Effective January 1, 2023, the Macau government has transferred the Reversion Assets to us for usage in our operations during the duration of the Concession Contract for a fee of MOP750.00 (equivalent to US$94) per square meter for
years 1 to 3 of the Concession Contract, subject to consumer price index increase in years 2 and 3 of the concession. The fee will increase to MOP2,500.00 (equivalent to US$312) per square meter for years 4 to 10 of the concession, subject to
consumer price index increase in years 5 to 10 of the concession.

------

(6) In addition to the amounts included in the table above, in connection with the Concession Contract, Melco
Resorts Macau committed to an overall investment of MOP11,823.7 million (equivalent to US$1.48 billion) and incremental additional non-gaming investment in the amount of approximately 20% of its initial non-gaming investment, or MOP2,003.0 million (equivalent to US$249.9 million), in the event Macau's annual gross gaming revenue reaches MOP180.0 billion (equivalent to US$22.46 billion) (the
"Incremental Investment Trigger"). As Macau's annual gross gaming revenue exceeded MOP180.0 billion (equivalent to US$22.46 billion) in 2023, the Incremental Investment Trigger was reached and, the non-gaming investment to be carried out was increased by MOP2,003.0 million (equivalent to US$249.9 million) to MOP12.01 billion (equivalent to US$1.50 billion), with the overall investment amount
increased to MOP13,826.7 million (equivalent to US$1.73 billion) to be carried out by December 2032. As of December 31, 2025, the total investment in gaming and non-gaming related projects carried
out was in the aggregate amount of MOP5,724.2 million (equivalent to US$714.2 million).

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** 

Except as disclosed in note 10 and note 19(b) to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report, as of December 31, 2025, we have not entered into any material financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder's equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

**Distribution of Profits** 

Subsidiaries of Melco Resorts Finance that are incorporated in Macau are required to set aside a minimum of 10% to 25% of the entity's profit after tax to the legal reserve until the balance of the legal reserve reaches a level equivalent to 25% to 50% of the entity's share capital in accordance with the provisions of the Macau Commercial Code. The legal reserve is not available for distribution to the shareholders of the subsidiaries. The appropriation of legal reserve is recorded in the subsidiaries' financial statements in the year in which it is approved by the shareholders of the relevant subsidiaries. Melco Resorts Macau must notify the Chief Executive of Macau five business days in advance of any decision related to dividend distribution in an amount greater than MOP500 million (equivalent to approximately US$62.4 million). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate balance of the legal reserves amounted to US$60.3 million and US$36.8 million, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the sole director of our company declared dividends of US$16,667.82 per share totaling US$20.0 million, and US$74,043.26 per share totaling US$89.0 million, respectively, and recorded such amount as distribution against retained earnings.

**Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk** 

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.

***Interest Rate Risk***

Our exposure to interest rate risk is associated with our indebtedness bearing interest based on floating rates. We attempt to manage interest rate risk by managing the mix of long-term fixed rate borrowings and variable rate borrowings and we may supplement by hedging activities in a manner we deem prudent. We cannot be sure that these risk management strategies have had the desired effect, and interest rate fluctuations could have a negative impact on our results of operations.

As of December 31, 2025, we were subject to fluctuations in HIBOR as a result of our MRM 2015 Credit Facilities and MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities. As of December 31, 2025, we had four floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements with aggregate notional amount of HK$5.88 billion (equivalent to US$755.7 million) to manage interest rate risk on its loan under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities.

------

As of December 31, 2025, approximately 81% of our total gross indebtedness was based on fixed rates. Based on our December 31, 2025 indebtedness and interest rate swap level, an assumed 100 basis point change in HIBOR would cause our annual interest cost to change by approximately US$1.3 million.

To the extent that we effect hedging in respect of our credit facilities, the counterparties to such hedging will also benefit from the security and guarantees we provide to the lenders under such credit facilities, which could increase our aggregate secured indebtedness. We do not intend to engage in transactions in derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and we expect the provisions of our existing and any future credit facilities to restrict or prohibit the use of derivatives and financial instruments for purposes other than hedging.

***Foreign Exchange Risk***

Our exposure to foreign exchange rate risk is associated with the currency of our operations and our indebtedness and as a result of the presentation of our consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars. The majority of our revenues are denominated in H.K. dollars, given the H.K. dollar is the predominant currency used in Macau and is often used interchangeably with the Pataca in Macau, while our expenses are denominated predominantly in Patacas and H.K. dollars. In addition, a significant portion of our indebtedness, as a result of the 2027 MRF Senior Notes, 2028 MRF Senior Notes, 2029 MRF Senior Notes, 2032 MRF Senior Notes and 2033 MRF Senior Notes and certain expenses, have been and are denominated in U.S. dollars, and the costs associated with servicing and repaying such debt will be denominated in U.S. dollars.

The value of the H.K. dollar and Pataca against the U.S. dollar may fluctuate and may be affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. While the H.K. dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar within a narrow range and the Pataca is in turn pegged to the H.K. dollar, and the exchange rates between these currencies has remained relatively stable over the past several years, we cannot assure you that the current peg or linkages between the U.S. dollar, H.K. dollar and Pataca will not be de-pegged, de-linked or otherwise modified and subject to fluctuations. Any significant fluctuations in exchange rates between the H.K. dollar or Pataca to the U.S. dollar may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and financial condition.

We accept foreign currencies from our customers and as of December 31, 2025, in addition to H.K. dollars and Patacas, we also hold other foreign currencies. However, any foreign exchange risk exposure associated with those currencies is minimal.

We have not engaged in hedging transactions with respect to foreign exchange exposure of our revenues and expenses in our day-to-day operations during the year ended December 31, 2025. Instead, we maintain a certain amount of our operating funds in the same currencies in which we have obligations, thereby reducing our exposure to currency fluctuations. However, we occasionally enter into foreign exchange transactions as part of financing transactions and capital expenditure programs. In September 2025, we entered into two cross-currency swap arrangements to manage foreign exchange rate risk associated with the interest and principal payments under the 2033 MRF Senior Notes. Under the cross-currency swap arrangement, we pays interest and principal in H.K. dollars and receives interest and principal in U.S. dollars. We review our overall foreign exchange risk on an ongoing basis.

See note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for further details related to our indebtedness as of December 31, 2025.

Major currencies in which our cash and bank balances (including restricted cash) are held as of December 31, 2025 were the H.K. dollar. Based on the cash and bank balances as of December 31, 2025, an assumed 1% change in the exchange rates between currencies other than the U.S. dollar against the U.S. dollar would cause a maximum foreign transaction gain or loss of approximately US$6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Based on the balances of indebtedness denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars as of December 31, 2025, an assumed 1% change in the exchange rates between currencies other than the U.S. dollar against the U.S. dollar would cause a foreign transaction gain or loss of approximately US$8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

A portion of our rolling chip play in Macau is brought to us by gaming promoters, also known as junket operators. Gaming promoters in Macau are independent third-party corporate entities, all of which are officially required to be licensed by the Secretary of Economy and Finance of Macau.

We have procedures to screen prospective gaming promoters prior to their engagement and conduct periodic checks that are designed to ensure that the gaming promoters with whom we associate meet suitability standards. Where licensing requirements apply, we only engage gaming promoters who have been licensed by the relevant authority.

In Macau, our gaming promoters are compensated through commission arrangements that are calculated on a monthly or a per trip basis. We offer commission payment structures that are calculated by reference to the monthly rolling chip volume. Our gaming promoters may also receive complimentary allowances for food and beverage, hotel accommodation and transportation.

We conduct, and expect to continue to conduct, our table gaming activities at our casinos on a credit basis as well as a cash basis. The credit we extend is typically unsecured. The gaming promoters bear the responsibility for issuing credit to and, subsequently collecting, from their players.

**Market and Competition** 

We believe that the gaming market in Macau is and will continue to be intensely competitive. Our competitors in Macau include all the current concession holders in Macau and many of the largest gaming, hospitality, leisure and property development companies in the world. Some of these current and future competitors are larger than us and have significantly longer track records in the operation of major hotel casino resort properties.

**Macau Gaming Market** 

In 2025 and 2024, Macau generated approximately US$30.9 billion and US$28.4 billion of gross gaming revenue, respectively, according to the DICJ. Macau is currently the only market in China, and one of only several in Asia, to offer legalized casino gaming.

Macau continues to be impacted by a range of external factors, including uneven growth in the China economy and government policies that may adversely affect the Macau gaming market. For example, the PRC government has taken measures to deter marketing of gaming activities to mainland China residents by offshore casinos and to reduce capital outflow. Such measures include reducing the amount that mainland China-issued ATM cardholders can withdraw in each withdrawal, setting a limit for annual withdrawals and the launch of facial recognition and identity card checks with respect to certain ATM users.

The mass market table games segment accounted for 66.9% of market-wide gross gaming revenues in 2025, compared to 70.2% of market-wide gross gaming revenues in 2024, according to the DICJ. With our strategic focus on the premium mass market in the Cotai region, we believe we are well positioned to cater to this increasingly important, and more profitable, segment of the market. Moreover, we believe the long-term growth in gaming and non-gaming revenues in Macau are supported by, among other things, the continuing emergence of a wealthier demographic in China, a robust regulatory framework and significant new infrastructure developments in Macau and China, as well as by the anticipated new supply of gaming and non-gaming facilities in Macau, which is predominantly focused on the Cotai region. According to the DSEC, visitation to Macau totaled more than 40.1 million in 2025, an increase of 14.7% compared to 2024 and above the 39.4 million visitors in 2019. Visitors from mainland China represented 72.4% of all visitors to Macau in 2025, compared to 70.1% of all visitors to Macau in 2024, and visitors from Hong Kong and Taiwan represented 18.2% and 2.5%, of all visitors to Macau in 2025, respectively.

In terms of competition, gaming in Macau is administered through concessions awarded by the Macau government to six different concessionaires: Melco Resorts Macau; Sociedade de Jogos de Macau, S.A., ("SJM"), in which family members of Mr. Lawrence Ho, our chief executive officer and the chairman and chief executive officer of the Parent, have shareholding interests; Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A. ("Wynn Macau"), a subsidiary of Wynn Resorts Ltd.; Galaxy Casino, S.A. ("Galaxy"); MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. ("MGM Grand Paradise"), which was originally formed as a joint venture by MGM-Mirage and Ms. Pansy Ho, sister of Mr. Lawrence Ho; and Venetian Macau Limited ("VML"), a subsidiary of Sands China Ltd and Las Vegas Sands Corporation.

SJM currently operates multiple casinos throughout Macau. SJM (through its predecessor, Tourism and Entertainment Company of Macau Limited) commenced its gaming operations in Macau in 1962. In July 2021, SJM opened Grand Lisboa Palace, in Cotai. SJM opened The Karl Lagerfeld and Palazzo Versace Macau, respectively, in June and November 2023.

Wynn Macau opened the Wynn Macau in September 2006 on the Macau peninsula and an extension called Encore in 2010. In August 2016, Wynn Macau opened Wynn Palace, in Cotai.

Galaxy currently operates multiple casinos in Macau, including StarWorld, a hotel and casino resort in Macau's central business and tourism district. The Galaxy Macau Resort opened in Cotai in May 2011 and the opening of Phase 2 of the Galaxy Macau Resort took place in May 2015. Galaxy progressively opened Phase 3 of the Galaxy Macau Resort from the second quarter 2023, while Phase 4 is currently under development, and construction is expected to be completed in 2027.

VML operates Sands Macao on the Macau peninsula, The Venetian Macao, the Plaza Casino at The Four Seasons Hotel Macao and the Parisian Macao. VML also operated Sands Cotai Central in Cotai in the past, which has been rebranded and redeveloped as The Londoner Macao, which opened in February 2021. The former Sheraton Grand was renovated and has been rebranded as the Londoner Grand, which opened in June 2025.

MGM Grand Paradise opened its MGM Macau facilities in December 2007, which are located next to Wynn Macau on the Macau peninsula, and its MGM Cotai resort in February 2018.

In addition to facing competition from existing operations of these concessionaires, we will face increased competition when any of them constructs new, or renovates pre-existing, hotels and casinos in Macau or enters into leasing, services or other arrangements with hotel owners, developers or other parties for the operation of casinos and gaming activities in new or renovated properties.

------

The existing concessions do not place any limits on the number of gaming facilities that may be operated. The Macau government does, however, limit the aggregate number of gaming tables and gaming machines in Macau and the opening of a new facility is subject to Macau government approval. The current cap of gaming tables and gaming machines are 6,000 and 12,000 respectively.

Law no. 7/2022 which amends the Macau Gaming Operations Law (Law no. 16/2001) came into force in June 2022. Principal changes under the amended Macau Gaming Operations Law include, among others, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the number of gaming concessions that may be awarded by the Macau government is up to six;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the term of the concessions may be up to ten years, subject to extension(s) of up to three years in total;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the registered share capital of each concessionaire shall be at least MOP5.0 billion (equivalent to
approximately US$623.9 million);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the managing director of each concessionaire must be a Macau permanent resident and hold at least 15% of the
concessionaire's registered share capital;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant transactions should be notified by concessionaires to the Macau government in advance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• an administrative sanctions regime is established;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• national security is one of the main objectives of the Macau gaming legal framework and a concession may be
terminated without compensation in case it is considered a threat to national security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a per gaming table and per gaming machine special premium is due should gross gaming revenue fall below the gross
gaming revenue threshold set by the Macau government;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Macau government sets the maximum number of gaming tables and gaming machines allocated to each
concessionaire and the allocation of such gaming tables and gaming machines to a specific casino is subject to the approval of the Macau government;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the Macau government may reduce the number of gaming tables or gaming machines in certain circumstances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amount of gaming chips of each concessionaire in circulation is subject to Macau government approval; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the concessionaires are jointly and severally liable for administrative fines and civil liability arising from
the exercise in their casinos of the authorized gaming promotion activity by gaming promoters, their directors and key employees, as well as their collaborators. Such joint and several liability may be excluded when it is proved that the
concessionaire has responsibly fulfilled its supervision duty.

***Other Regional Markets***

We may also face competition from casinos and gaming resorts located in other Asian destinations together with cruise ships. Casinos and integrated gaming resorts are becoming increasingly popular in Asia, giving rise to more opportunities for industry participants and increasing regional competition. There are two major gaming facilities in Singapore located on Sentosa and at Marina Bay and an international gaming resort in Malaysia located approximately a one-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. South Korea has allowed gaming for some time but these offerings are available primarily to foreign visitors. There are also casinos in Vietnam and Cambodia, and major gaming facilities in Australia located in Melbourne, Perth, Sydney and the Gold Coast. Vietnam launched a 5-year pilot program in November 2025 to allow local gaming at certain casino resorts.

There is also strong competition from the Philippine market from hotels and resorts owned by both Philippine nationals and foreigners, including many of the largest gaming, hospitality, leisure and resort companies in the world, such as Travellers International Hotel Group, Inc., Bloomberry Resorts Corporation and Tiger Resorts Leisure and Entertainment Inc. as well as the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, an entity owned and controlled by the government of the Philippines, which operates certain gaming facilities across the Philippines. In 2025, Bloomberry Resorts Corporation opened Solaire Resort North in Quezon City, and Suntrust Resort Holdings is expected to open its integrated resort in Westside City, Manila in the second half of 2026. There are five major gaming facilities in metro Manila, including City of Dreams Manila, with a sixth gaming facility scheduled to open in 2026.

------

In Japan, a proposed project in Osaka was awarded to MGM Resorts International and its joint venture partner Orix Corporation which is currently scheduled to open in 2030.

**Seasonality** 

Macau, our principal market of operation, experiences many peaks and seasonal effects. The "Golden Week" and "Chinese New Year" holidays are in general the key periods where business and visitation increase considerably in Macau. While we may experience fluctuations in revenues and cash flows from month to month, we do not believe that our business is materially impacted by seasonality.

**Employees** 

We had 15,973 and 15,997 employees as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of employees categorized by the areas of operations and as a percentage of our workforce as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Note:

(1) The figures for December 31, 2024 include employees at Grand Dragon Casino and the three Mocha Clubs

subsidiaries following their respective closures.

None of our employees are members of any labor union and we are not party to any collective bargaining or similar agreement with our employees.

We have implemented a number of employee attraction and retention initiatives over recent years for the benefit of our employees and their families. These initiatives include, among others, a unique in-house learning academy (which provides curriculum across multi-functional tracks such as technical training — gaming and non-gaming, sales and marketing, legal, finance, human resources, computer application, language, service, leadership and lifestyle), a foundation acceleration program designed to enhance our employees' understanding of business perspectives beyond their own jobs, an on-site high school diploma program and Diploma in Casino Management and Advanced Diploma in Gaming Management (a collaboration with The University of Macau), the Diploma in Hospitality Management (a collaboration with the Institute for Tourism Studies), scholarship awards to encourage the concept of life-long learning, as well as ample internal promotion and transfer opportunities. In September 2015, we launched the Melco You-niversity program with the Edinburgh Napier University, an overseas institution based in the United Kingdom, to bring a bachelor degree program in-house.

**Legal and Administrative Proceedings** 

We are currently a party to certain legal and administrative proceedings, investigations and claims, which relate to matters arising out of the ordinary course of our business. Based on the current status of such proceedings and the information currently available, our management does not believe that the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

**RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** 

**Studio City Casino Agreement** 

On May 11, 2007, Melco Resorts Macau and Studio City Entertainment, a subsidiary of the Parent, entered into a services and right to use agreement (as amended on June 15, 2012 and June 23, 2022, together with the reimbursement agreement of the same date and other agreements or arrangements entered into from time to time regarding the operation of Studio City Casino) pursuant to which Melco Resorts Macau operated Studio City Casino. The Studio City Casino Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions for the operation of Studio City Casino by Melco Resorts Macau and the obligations of Studio City Entertainment in respect thereof.

Under the Studio City Casino Agreement, Melco Resorts Macau manages the day to day operations at the Studio City Casino, provides the necessary security and develops and implements all systems and controls necessary for Studio City Casino. Melco Resorts Macau also recruits all casino staff, including dealers, cashiers, security and surveillance personnel and managers. Melco Resorts Macau will deduct gaming taxes and costs incurred in connection with its ongoing operation of Studio City Casino. Such costs include the costs for utilization of any gaming tables for operation of the Studio City Casino above 26.4% of Melco Resorts Macau's overall gaming tables allocated to Melco Resorts Macau by the Macau government. As Melco Resorts Macau was allocated 750 gaming tables by the Macau government, pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement, Melco Resorts Macau is permitted to deduct costs for the utilization of gaming tables for operation at the Studio City Casino which exceed 198 gaming tables, provided such costs have been approved by SCI's related party transactions policy. In addition, these costs include the costs for utilization of electronic gaming machines for operation at Studio City Casino above 552 electronic gaming machines, which was the number of electronic gaming machines initially allocated by Melco Resorts Macau to Studio City Casino as a result of the Macau government's allocation of 2,100 electronic gaming machines to Melco Resorts Macau under the Concession, provided such costs have also been approved by SCI's related party transactions policy. Studio City Entertainment receives the residual gross gaming revenues and recognizes these amounts as revenue from the Studio City Casino Agreement.

The Studio City Casino Agreement obligates Melco Resorts Macau to manage the day to day operations of the Studio City Casino in a manner intended to appeal to gaming patrons at a standard of quality of service set by Melco Resorts Macau in line with the overall development and operational strategy determined by SCI; however, the Studio City Casino Agreement does not require Melco Resorts Macau to operate a minimum number of gaming tables or gaming machines at the Studio City Casino or any specified mix of gaming tables and gaming machines, and the number of gaming tables and/or gaming machines may be reduced or increased by Melco Resorts Macau as it may determine pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Studio City Casino Agreement. For example, the Studio City Casino ceased VIP rolling chip operations in late October 2024.

The Studio City Casino Agreement is subject to customary events of default, including failure of Studio City Entertainment to make any payment required by the agreement or any action by Studio City Entertainment which causes or is likely to cause Melco Resorts Macau to be in breach of its concession. The parties may terminate the Studio City Casino Agreement in the event of a default under the Studio City Casino Agreement or, among others, as a result of regulatory review, except that as long as Studio City Entertainment is directly or indirectly under the control of Melco Resorts, Melco Resorts Macau may not terminate the Studio City Casino Agreement.

As of the date of this annual report, Melco Resorts Macau allocates an additional 248 electronic gaming machines for operation at Studio City Casino, which allocation may be terminated upon 30 days' written notice by either Studio City Entertainment or Melco Resorts Macau. In addition, Melco Resorts Macau currently allocates 61 gaming tables for operation at Studio City Casino, which such allocation may also be terminated upon 30 days' written notice by either Studio City Entertainment or Melco Resorts Macau.

**Management and Shared Services Agreements** 

On December 21, 2015, SCI and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the Master Services Agreements with certain Melco Resorts Affiliates, which sets out the terms and conditions that apply to certain services to be provided under individual work agreements by the Melco Resorts Affiliates to certain subsidiaries of SCI and vice versa. The Master Services Agreements and the related arrangements for work agreements have been extended to December 31, 2032.

For discussion of other significant related party transactions we entered into during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, see note 20 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.

***Drawdowns/Repayment***

As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balances under the 2015 Term Loan Facility and the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility were HK$1.0 million (equivalent to US$0.1 million) and nil, respectively.

No further drawdowns may be made under the 2015 Term Loan Facility. The available revolving credit facility commitments under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility are available on a fully revolving basis up to the date that is one month prior to the Extended Termination Date.

The principal amount of the 2015 Term Loan Facility, and all interest accruing thereon, is repayable in full on the Extended Termination Date. Each loan made under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is repayable in full on the last day of an agreed upon interest period in respect of the loan, generally ranging from one to six months, or rolling over subject to compliance with certain covenants and satisfaction of conditions precedent.

***Interest and Fees***

***Events of Default***

The event of default regime under the MRM 2015 Credit Facilities comprises events of default that are customary for a facility of this nature including, among others, subject to certain grace periods and exceptions: (i) the failure to make any payment when due; (ii) the breach of financial covenants; (iii) a cross default triggered by any other event of default in the facility agreements or other documents forming the indebtedness of the borrower and/or guarantors and/or members of the Borrowing Group; the breach of the credit facility documents; (iv) certain events occurring which may give rise to a termination or rescission of Melco Resorts Macau's concession contract and land concessions; (vi) insolvency or bankruptcy events; and (vii) misrepresentations on the part of the borrower and guarantors in statements made in the loan documents delivered to the lenders.

Pursuant to the terms of the BOC Waiver Letter, BOC Macau agreed, among other things, to waive certain current and/or future defaults and events of default that may arise under the terms of the MRM 2015 Credit Facilities, subject to certain conditions and terms.

**MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities** 

***Overview***

**INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT** 

To the shareholder and the Sole Director of Melco Resorts Finance Limited

**Opinion** 

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Melco Resorts Finance Limited and subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholder's deficit and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion** 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

**Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements** 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

**Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

------

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

**(In thousands, except share and per share data)** 

**1.** **ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS** 

Melco Resorts Finance Limited ("MRF") is incorporated in the Cayman Islands. MRF, together with its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Company"), is a developer, owner and operator of integrated resort facilities in the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China ("Macau"). The Company operates its gaming business in Macau through its subsidiary, Melco Resorts (Macau) Limited ("MRM"), a holder of a ten-year concession to operate games of fortune and chance in casinos in Macau which commenced on January 1, 2023 and ends on December 31, 2032 (the "Concession").

The Company currently operates City of Dreams and Altira Macau, integrated resorts located in Cotai and Taipa, Macau, respectively. The Company also operates Studio City Casino, a casino at Studio City, a cinematically-themed integrated resort in Cotai, Macau, developed by affiliated companies of the Company. As part of the Company's development strategy and in accordance with Macau gaming law, Grand Dragon Casino, a casino located in Taipa, Macau, and three of the six Mocha Clubs, which comprise non-casino based operations of electronic gaming machines in Macau, ceased operations between the period from September to December 2025. Following these closures, the gaming tables and electronic gaming machines were reallocated to the Company's other gaming areas in Macau. The Company has submitted relevant application for the continuing operations of the remaining three Mocha Clubs, namely Mocha Inner Harbour, Mocha Hotel Sintra and Mocha Golden Dragon beyond December 31, 2025, and such application has been approved by the Macau government. On February 10, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment agreement to the concession agreement to reflect the permanent cessation of operations of the Grand Dragon Casino and three Mocha Clubs effective from January 1, 2026.

Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited ("Melco Resorts"), MRF's sole shareholder, is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and its American depositary shares ("ADSs") are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in the United States of America (the "U.S."). Melco International Development Limited ("Melco International" or "Ultimate Parent"), a company listed in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China ("Hong Kong"), is the single largest shareholder of Melco Resorts.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of U.S. dollar ("$" or "US$") 493,097 and available unused borrowing capacity of $1,071,751, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.

The Company believes it is able to support continuing operations and capital expenditures for at least twelve months after the date of these consolidated financial statements are issued. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.

**2.** **SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation** 

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 MRF and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, inputs into the Company's estimated allowances for deferred tax assets and credit losses, useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets, inputs in calculating the fair values of share option and derivative instruments, litigation and contingency estimates. 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.

**2.** **SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** - continued

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) **Restricted Cash** 

The current portion of restricted cash, if any, 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 portion of restricted cash represents funds that will not be released or utilized within the next twelve months. Restricted cash consists of cash deposits in (i) collateral bank accounts for bank guarantees as disclosed in Note 3; and (ii) collateral bank accounts associated with borrowings under the credit facilities as disclosed in Note 10.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) **Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk** 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of casino accounts receivable. The Company issues credit for gaming pursuant to gaming credit facilities entered into with casino customers, and previously, with gaming promoters, following a review of their creditworthiness. These receivables can be offset against commissions payable and any other payments due by the Company to customers, and previously to gaming promoters. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, a substantial portion of the Company's markers issued pursuant to gaming credit facilities were due from customers residing in various countries and from licensed gaming promoters. Business and economic conditions, the legal enforceability of gaming debts, foreign currency control measures or other significant circumstances in these countries could affect the collectability of receivables from customers and gaming promoters.

Accounts receivable, including casino, hotel and other receivables, are typically non-interest bearing and are recorded at amortized cost. Accounts are written off when management deems it is probable the receivables are uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recorded when received. An estimated allowance for credit losses is maintained to reduce the Company's receivables to their carrying amounts and 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 customers, current business and economic conditions, and management's expectations of future business and economic conditions.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the credit risks associated with certain casino accounts receivable are mitigated because they are secured by properties with equal or greater value to the carrying amount of the related accounts receivable. Management believes that as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no significant concentrations of credit risk existed for which an allowance had not already been recorded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 method.

**2.** **SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** - continued

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) **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 the Company's integrated resort facilities, 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 activities are 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 integrated resort facilities are completed and opened.

Property and equipment are depreciated and amortized over the following estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Buildings | 7 to 40 years |
| Transportation | 5 to 10 years |
| Leasehold improvements | 3 to 10 years or over the lease term, whichever is shorter |
| Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 2 to 10 years |
| Gaming equipment | 18 months to 5 years |

---

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, impairments of property and equipment of $4,073 and $3,120, as part of the impairment of long-lived assets as described in Note 2(j), were recognized, respectively, and included in property charges and other in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Goodwill and Intangible Assets** 

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets of any business acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable.

Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their estimated useful lives unless their useful lives are determined to be indefinite in which case they are not amortized. Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization, and accumulated impairment, if any. The Company's finite-lived intangible assets consist of the Concession, internal-use software and Mocha Clubs trademarks (as discussed below). Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the shorter of their contractual terms or estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. Effective from June 9, 2025, the date which Melco Resorts announced the development of Mocha Clubs as disclosed in Note 1, the estimated useful lives of Mocha Clubs trademarks were changed from indefinite useful lives to finite useful lives. Accordingly, the carrying amount is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period of the Concession and the projection period of Mocha Clubs' future cash flow is also adjusted to the end of the Concession period for impairment testing. The change in estimated useful lives of Mocha Clubs trademarks had no material impact to net income for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Costs incurred to develop software for internal use are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the software of 3 to 4 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 software are capitalized, while costs associated with preliminary project stage activities, training, maintenance and all other post-implementation stage activities are expensed as incurred.

When performing the impairment analysis for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, the Company will first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. If the qualitative factors indicate that the carrying amount of the reporting unit is more likely than not to exceed the fair value, then a quantitative impairment test is performed. To perform a quantitative impairment test of intangible assets with indefinite lives, the Company performs an assessment that consists of a comparison of the fair values of the intangible assets with indefinite lives with their carrying amounts. An impairment is recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the carrying amounts over the fair values of the intangible assets with indefinite lives. To perform a quantitative impairment test of goodwill, the Company performs an assessment that consists of a comparison of the carrying value of a reporting unit with its fair value. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using income valuation approaches through the application of the discounted cash flow method. Estimating fair value of the reporting unit involves significant assumptions, including future revenue growth rates, future market conditions, gross margin, discount rate and terminal growth rate, if applicable. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, as a result of three Mocha Clubs ceased operations between the period from September to December 2025 as disclosed in Note 1, the Company recognized an impairment of goodwill in relation to the Mocha and Other segment of $57,924, which was included in property charges and other in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the reporting unit of Mocha and Other was estimated by using level 3 inputs based on income approach and the discount rate adopted in the income approach for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 13.2%. No impairment on goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024.

As a part of the impairment of long-lived assets recognized during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 as described in Note 2(j), the finite-lived intangible assets for Altira Macau as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were fully impaired.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) **Impairment of Long-lived Assets (Other Than Goodwill)** 

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. If an asset is still under development, future cash flows include remaining construction costs.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the performance of Altira Macau had not improved and a further impairment of long-lived assets of $4,145 and $3,316, respectively, were recognized and included in property charges and other in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, which included impairment of Altira Macau's property and equipment of $4,073 and $3,120, and the full impairment of the finite-lived intangible assets for Altira Macau of $72 and $196, for the respective year. The fair values of the long-lived assets of Altira Macau were estimated by using level 3 inputs based on a combination of income and cost approaches and the discount rates adopted in the income approach for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 14.0% and 12.6%, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) **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, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, based on the maturity of each revolving credit facility. All other deferred financing costs are presented as a reduction of long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) **Land Use Rights** 

Land use rights represent the upfront land premiums paid for the use of land held under operating leases, which are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization, and accumulated impairment, if any. Amortization is recognized over the estimated term of the land use rights of 40 years on a straight-line basis. No impairment on land use rights was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) **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.

Finance and operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The initial measurement of the right-of-use assets also includes any prepaid lease payments and any initial direct 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) **Leases -** continued

The Company's lease contracts have lease and non-lease components. For contracts in which the Company is a lessee, the Company accounts for the lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets, except for real estate. For contracts in which the Company is a lessor, all are accounted for as operating leases, and the lease components and non-lease components are accounted for separately.

No impairment on operating lease right-of-use assets was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) **Revenue Recognition** 

The Company's revenues from contracts with customers consist of casino wagers, sales of rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other goods and services.

Gross casino revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses. The Company accounts for its casino wagering transactions on a portfolio basis versus an individual basis as all wagers have similar characteristics. Commissions rebated to customers and gaming promoters, cash discounts and other cash incentives earned by customers are recorded as a reduction of gross casino revenues. In addition to the wagers, casino transactions typically include performance obligations related to complimentary goods or services provided to incentivize future gaming or in exchange for incentives or points earned under the Company's non-discretionary incentive programs (including loyalty programs).

For casino transactions that include complimentary goods or services provided by the Company to incentivize future gaming, the Company allocates the standalone selling price of each good or service to the appropriate revenue type based on the good or service provided. Complimentary goods or services that are provided under the Company's control and discretion and supplied by third parties are recorded as operating expenses.

The Company operates different non-discretionary incentive programs in certain of its properties which include loyalty programs (the "Loyalty Programs") to encourage repeat business mainly from loyal slot machine customers and table games patrons. Customers earn points primarily based on gaming activity and such points can be redeemed for free play and other free goods and services. For casino transactions that include points earned under the Loyalty Programs, the Company defers a portion of the revenue by recording the estimated standalone selling prices of the earned points that are expected to be redeemed as a liability. Upon redemption of the points for Company-owned goods or services, the standalone selling price of each good or service is allocated to the appropriate revenue type based on the good or service provided. Upon the redemption of the points with third parties, the redemption amount is deducted from the liability and paid directly to the third party.

After allocating amounts to the complimentary goods or services provided and to the points earned under the Loyalty Programs, the residual amount is recorded as casino revenue when the wagers are settled.

The Company follows the accounting standards for reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent, when accounting for the operations of Studio City Casino and an externally managed hotel and concluded that it is the controlling entity and is the principal to these arrangements.

For the operation of Studio City Casino, on June 23, 2022, MRM and Studio City Entertainment Limited ("SCE"), an affiliated company of the Company, amended a services and right to use agreement to align such agreement with the enacted amendments to the Macau gaming law, together with related agreements (the "Studio City Casino Agreement"), under which MRM operates Studio City Casino since SCE does not hold a gaming concession in Macau. Pursuant to the Studio City Casino Agreement, MRM deducts gaming taxes and the costs incurred in connection with the operations of Studio City Casino from Studio City Casino's gross gaming revenues, and recognizes the residual amount as an expense captioned as payments under the Studio City Casino Agreement with an affiliated company as disclosed in Note 20. Given MRM has full responsibility for the operations of Studio City Casino in accordance with the Concession, it is the principal and casino revenue is, therefore, recognized on a gross basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) **Revenue Recognition** - continued

For the operation of the 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 business. The Company is the principal and the transactions are, therefore, recognized on a gross basis.

The transaction prices for rooms, food and beverage, entertainment, retail and other goods and services are the net amounts collected from customers for such goods and services that are recorded as revenues when the goods are provided, services are performed or events are held. Service taxes and other applicable taxes collected by the Company are excluded from revenues. Advance deposits on rooms and convention space and advance ticket sales are recorded as customer deposits until services are provided to the customers. Revenues from contracts with multiple goods or services provided by the Company are allocated to each good or service based on its relative standalone selling price.

Minimum operating and right to use fees representing lease revenues, adjusted for contractual base fees and operating fee escalations, are included in other 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 primarily has three types of liabilities related to contracts with customers: (1) outstanding gaming chips, which represent the amounts owed in exchange for gaming chips held by customers and gaming promoters, (2) loyalty program liabilities, which represent the deferred allocation of revenues relating to incentives earned from the Loyalty Programs, and (3) advance deposits and ticket sales, which represent casino front money deposits that are funds deposited by customers and gaming promoters before gaming play occurs and advance payments on goods and services yet to be provided such as advance ticket sales and deposits on rooms and convention space. These liabilities are generally expected to be recognized as revenues within one year of being purchased, earned or deposited and are recorded as accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Decreases in these balances generally represent the recognition of revenues and increases in the balances represent additional chips held by customers and gaming promoters, increases in unredeemed incentives relating to the Loyalty Programs and additional deposits made by customers and gaming promoters.

The following table summarizes the activities related to contract and contract-related liabilities:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Outstanding Gaming | Outstanding Gaming | Loyalty | Loyalty | Advance Deposits | Advance Deposits |
|  | Chips | Chips | Program Liabilities | Program Liabilities | and Ticket Sales | and Ticket Sales |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) **Gaming Taxes** 

The Company is subject to taxes based on gross gaming revenue and other metrics in Macau. These gaming taxes totaled $1,840,407 and $1,649,119 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, were recognized as casino expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) **Pre-opening Costs** 

Pre-opening costs represent personnel, marketing and other costs incurred prior to the opening of new or start-up operations and are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred pre-opening costs primarily in connection with certain new operations and other enhancement projects at City of Dreams. The Company also incurs pre-opening costs on other one-off activities related to the marketing of new facilities and operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) **Advertising and Promotional Costs** 

The Company expenses advertising and promotional costs the first time the advertising takes place or as incurred. Advertising and promotional costs included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations were $114,766 and $115,345 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) **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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) **Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations** 

All transactions in currencies other than functional currencies of MRF 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 MRF is the US$ and the reporting currency of these consolidated financial statements is in US$. The functional currency of most of MRF'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 (loss) income.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) **Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities** 

The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as floating-for-fixed interest rate swap and cross-currency swap arrangements to manage its risks associated with interest rate fluctuations in accordance with lenders' requirements under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities as defined in Note 10 and exchange rate fluctuations for the outstanding US$ denominated 2033 MRF Senior Notes as defined in Note 10. All derivative instruments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value at the balance sheet date. Any changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations or comprehensive income, depending on whether the derivative is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting, the type of hedge transaction and the effectiveness of the hedge. There are no credit-risk-related contingent features in the Company's derivative agreements.

Further information on the Company's interest rate swap and cross-currency swap arrangements is included in Note 9 and Note 10 respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) **Share-based Compensation Expenses** 

Melco Resorts operates share-based compensation plans for the purpose of providing incentives and rewards to eligible employees in Melco Resorts and its subsidiaries (the "Melco Resorts Group") including employees who rendered services to the Company. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award and recognizes that cost over the service period. Compensation is attributed to the periods of associated service and such expense is recognized over the vesting period of the awards on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur.

Further information on the Company's share-based compensation arrangements is included in Note 15.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 Macau and Hong Kong taxing authorities.

The Company's income tax returns are subject to examination by tax authorities in Macau and Hong Kong. The Company assesses potentially unfavorable outcomes of such examinations based on accounting standards for uncertain income taxes. These accounting standards utilize a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position, based on the technical merits of the position, will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based on cumulative probability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) **Reclassification** 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, shareholder's deficit, or cash flows as previously reported.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) **Recent Changes in Accounting Standards** 

*Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncement* 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through providing additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 prospectively for the year ended December 31, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have an effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows, noting the adoption resulted in additional disclosures only in the current annual period. Refer to Note 14 for the income tax disclosures.

*Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted* 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date ("ASU 2025-01"). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of these standards will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets". ASU 2025-05 provides a practical expedient related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software", which provides guidance to clarify and modernize the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. ASU2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption.

<u>Concession</u> - continued

On December 30, 2022, in accordance with the obligations under the letters of undertakings dated June 23, 2022, MRM and certain subsidiaries of Melco Resorts, which hold the land lease rights for the properties on which the City of Dreams Casino, the Altira Casino and the Studio City Casino are located, executed a public deed pursuant to which the gaming and gaming support areas comprising the City of Dreams Casino, the Altira Casino and the Studio City Casino with an area of 31,227.3 square meters, 17,128.8 square meters and 28,784.3 square meters, respectively, and related gaming equipment and utensils (collectively referred to as the "Reversion Assets"), reverted to the Macau government, without compensation and free and clear from any charges or encumbrances, at the expiration of the previous gaming subconcession in accordance with the Macau gaming law. The Reversion Assets that reverted to the Macau government at the expiration of the previous gaming subconcession are currently owned by the Macau government. Under the terms of the Macau gaming law and the Concession, effective as of January 1, 2023, the Reversion Assets were transferred by the Macau government to MRM for use in its operations during the Concession for a fee of MOP0.75 (equivalent to $0.09) per square meter of the casino for years 1 to 3 of the Concession, subject to a consumer price index increase in years 2 and 3 of the Concession and such fee will increase to MOP2.5 (equivalent to $0.3) per square meter of the casino for years 4 to 10 of the Concession, subject to a consumer price index increase in years 5 to 10 of the Concession (the "Fee").

On January 1, 2023, the Company recognized an intangible asset and financial liability of MOP1,934,035 (equivalent to $239,588), representing the right to use and operate the Reversion Assets, the right to conduct games of fortunes and chance in Macau and the unconditional obligation to make payments under the Concession. This intangible asset comprises the contractually obligated annual payments of fixed premium and variable premiums, as well as the Fee without considering the consumer price index under the Concession. The contractually obligated annual variable premium payments associated with the intangible asset were determined using the total number of gaming tables and the total number of electronic gaming machines that MRM is currently approved to operate by the Macau government. Changes in annual payments related to the consumer price index will be recognized as an adjustment to the carrying amount of intangible asset and corresponding financial liability. In the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the non-current portion of the financial liability of the Concession is included in other long-term liabilities and the current portion is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of the Concession, being 10 years.

The amortization expenses of finite-lived intangible assets recognized for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $25,668 and $24,657, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the non-current portion of the
intangible asset liabilities of $183,883 and $206,820, respectively, are included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) In June 2025, the Company entered into four floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements to manage interest rate risk on its loans drawn under the MN1 2020 Revolving Facilities as defined in Note 10. Two of
the interest rate swap arrangements will expire in July 2026, while the remaining two expire in April 2027. Under the interest rate swap arrangements, the Company pays fixed interest rates and receives variable interest based on the notional
amounts. As of December 31, 2025, the aggregate notional amount of the outstanding interest rate swaps amounted to HK$5,880,000 (equivalent to $755,668).

These interest rate swaps are expected to remain highly effective in fixing the interest rate and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. Therefore, there is no impact on the consolidated statements of operations from changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments. Instead, the fair values of the hedging instruments are recorded as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with an offsetting adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged interest expenses are recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2025, the net fair values of interest rate swaps were recorded as liabilities, of which $4 were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $513 were included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $236 were included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates that over the next twelve months, $509 of the net unrealized losses on the interest rate swaps will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest expenses and the actual amounts that will be reclassified over the next twelve months may vary from this amount as a result of changes in market conditions. The cash flow impact of the interest rate swaps is included in operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows.

**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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active
markets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 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, bank time deposits included in restricted cash, long-term deposits, long-term receivables and other long-term liabilities approximated fair values and were classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the reporting unit of Mocha and Other as of December 31, 2025 as described in Note 2(i) was estimated by using level 3 inputs based on income approach.

The fair values as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 for the long-lived assets impairment of Altira Macau as described in Note 2(j) were estimated by using level 3 inputs based on a combination of income and cost approaches.

The estimated fair values of long-term debt as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, were approximately $4,753,280 and $4,831,128, respectively, as compared to their carrying values, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue premiums, of $4,736,754 and $5,008,434, respectively. Fair values for the senior notes were estimated based on recent trades, if available, and indicative pricing from market information and were classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for the credit facilities approximated their carrying values as the instruments carried variable interest rates that approximated the market rates and were classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

**12.** **FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS -** continued

As of December 31, 2025, the fair values of interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps approximated the amounts the Company would pay if these contracts were settled at the respective valuation dates. Fair value is estimated based on a discounted cash flow model that projects future cash flows and discounts those future cash flows to a present value by using level 2 inputs such as interest rate yields and foreign currency exchange rates. The fair values of the interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps were disclosed in Note 9 and Note 10 respectively.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were recognized or disclosed at fair value in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

**13.** **CAPITAL STRUCTURE** 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, MRF had authorized shares of 5,000,000 at par value of $0.01 per share and with 1,202 ordinary shares issued at par value of $0.01 per share.

Pursuant to a Dispatch of the Chief Executive of Macau dated January 29, 2024, MRM benefits from the Macau Complementary Tax exemption on profits generated from gaming operations under the Concession for the period of five years from 2023 to 2027. MRM's non-gaming profits are subject to the Macau Complementary Tax and its casino revenues remain subject to the Macau special gaming tax and other levies in accordance with the Concession effective on January 1, 2023.

In February 2024, MRM entered into an agreement with the Macau government in relation to payments in lieu of the Macau Complementary Tax which would otherwise be borne by the shareholders of MRM on dividend distributions from gaming profits for the period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025 under the Concession. Such payments are required regardless of whether dividends are actually distributed or whether MRM has distributable profits in the relevant year. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, an estimated amount of $7,843 and $7,021 was provided for such arrangement, respectively. In October 2025, MRM submitted an application for an extension to the agreement for an annual payment for the period from 2026 through 2027, and such application is currently under review by the Macau government.

Certain jurisdictions in which the Ultimate Parent operates have enacted Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules ("Pillar Two") that became effective on January 1, 2024. The Company and its Ultimate Parent are in scope of the enacted legislation and have performed an assessment of the Company's potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes, which is based on the most recent tax filings, country-by-country reporting and financial information for the constituent entities of the Ultimate Parent. Based on management's best estimate, the Company does not have exposure to Pillar Two top-up taxes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The reconciliation of the Macau Complementary Tax rate and the Company's effective tax rate of 2.6% for the year ended December 31, 2025 is presented in the table above under the new accounting standard. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 92.04%, such rate differs from the statutory Macau Complementary Tax rate of 12%, where the majority of the Company's operations are located, primarily due to the effects of expenses for which no income tax benefit is receivable, expired tax losses, different tax rate of subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong and profits generated by gaming operations being exempted from Macau Complementary Tax for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The components of income taxes paid, net of refunds, are as follows:

**Melco Resorts Share Incentive Plan** 

Melco Resorts adopted a share incentive plan in 2011 (as amended) (the "Melco Resorts 2011 Share Incentive Plan"), which was terminated on December 6, 2021, and a new share incentive plan in 2021, which was effective on December 6, 2021 and was subsequently amended on June 13, 2024 to bring the plan in line with applicable listing rules in Hong Kong that impact Melco International, for grants of various share-based awards (the "Melco Resorts 2021 Share Incentive Plan", together with Melco Resorts 2011 Share Incentive Plan be referred as "Melco Resorts Share Incentive Plan"). Upon the termination of the Melco Resorts 2011 Share Incentive Plan, no further awards can be granted under the Melco Resorts 2011 Share Incentive Plan but the provisions of such plan shall remain in full force and effect in all other respects for any awards granted prior to the date of the termination of such plan.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, certain share-based awards under the Melco Resorts Share Incentive Plan were granted by Melco Resorts to eligible employees of the Melco Resorts Group who rendered services to the Company.

*Share Options* 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the exercise prices for share options granted under the Melco Resorts Share Incentive Plan were determined at the market closing prices of Melco Resorts' ADSs trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the dates of grant. These share options became exercisable over vesting periods of one to three years. The share options granted expire 10 years from the date of grant.

Melco Resorts uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the estimated fair value for each share option granted, with certain assumptions, changes in which could materially affect the estimated fair value. Dividend yield is based on the estimate of annual dividends expected to be paid at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of Melco Resorts' ADSs trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Expected term is based upon the vesting term or the historical expected term of publicly traded companies. The risk-free interest rate used for each period presented is based on the United States of America Treasury yield curve at the time of grant for the period equal to the expected term. The fair values of the share options at the date of grant were charged to the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital as a contribution from Melco Resorts.

The fair values of share options granted under the Melco Resorts Share Incentive Plan were estimated on the dates of grant using the following weighted average assumptions:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Year Ended December 31, | Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2025 | 2024 |
|  Expected dividend yield | 2.50% | 2.50% |
|  Expected stock price volatility | 59.67% | 60.00% |
|  Risk-free interest rate | 3.97% | 4.36% |

The eligible employees of the Company are allowed to participate in defined contribution fund schemes operated by the Company or Melco Resorts (the "Defined Contribution Fund Schemes"). The Company either contributes a fixed percentage of the eligible employees' relevant income, a fixed amount or an amount which matches the contributions of the employees up to a certain percentage of relevant income to the Defined Contribution Fund Schemes. The Company's contributions to the Defined Contribution Fund Schemes are vested with employees in accordance to vesting schedules, achieving full vesting of 10 years from the date of employment. The Defined Contribution Fund Schemes were established under trusts with the fund assets being held separately from those of the Company by independent trustees.

Employees employed by the Company in Macau are members of a government-managed social security fund scheme (the "Social Security Fund Scheme"), which is operated by the Macau government.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's contributions into the defined contribution retirement benefits schemes were $24,958 and $22,732, respectively.

**17.** **DISTRIBUTION OF PROFITS**

The legal reserve is not available for distribution to the shareholders of the subsidiaries. The appropriation of the legal reserve is recorded in the subsidiaries' financial statements in the year in which it is approved by the shareholders of the relevant subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate balance of the legal reserves amounted to $60,296 and $36,773, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **Capital Commitments** 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had capital commitments mainly for the acquisitions of property and equipment for City of Dreams totaling $74,793.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) **Other Commitments** 

**Concession - Macau** 

Under the Concession awarded by the Macau government to MRM on December 16, 2022, in addition to the fixed premium and variable premiums, as well as the Fee (see Note 6), MRM is obligated to pay the Macau government the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i) A special gaming tax of an amount equal to 35% of gross gaming revenue on a monthly basis;

ii) Contributions of 2% and 3% of gross gaming revenue to a public fund, and to urban development, touristic promotion and social security, respectively, on a monthly basis. These contributions may be waived or reduced with respect to gross gaming revenue generated by foreign patrons under certain circumstances; 

iii) A special premium in the event the average gross gaming revenue of MRM's gaming tables does not reach the annual minimum of MOP7,000 (equivalent to $873) and the average gross gaming revenue of the electronic gaming machines does not reach the annual minimum of MOP300 (equivalent to $37). The amount of the special premium is equivalent to the difference between the amount of the special gaming tax paid by MRM and the amount that would be paid under the annual minimum set average gross gaming revenue for gaming tables and electronic gaming machines; and 

iv) MRM must maintain a guarantee issued by a Macau bank in favor of the Macau government in the amount of MOP1,000,000 (equivalent to $124,772) until 180 days after the earlier of the expiration or termination of the Concession to guarantee its performance of certain of its legal and contractual obligations, including labor obligations. 

As a result of the bank guarantee issued by the bank to the Macau government as disclosed above, a sum of 0.03% per annum of the guarantee amount is payable by MRM to the bank.

*Committed Investment* 

In connection with the Concession, MRM has undertaken to carry out investment in the overall amount of MOP11,823,700 (equivalent to $1,475,265) by December 2032. The investment plan includes gaming and non-gaming related projects in the expansion of foreign market patrons, conventions and exhibitions, entertainment shows, sports events, art and culture, health and well-being, thematic entertainment, gastronomy, community and maritime tourism and others. Out of the total investment amount referred to above, MOP10,008,000 (equivalent to $1,248,717) is to be applied to non-gaming related projects, with the balance applied to gaming related projects. MRM has undertaken to carry out incremental additional non-gaming investment in the amount of approximately 20% of its initial non-gaming investment, or MOP2,003,000 (equivalent to $249,918), in the event the Macau's annual gross gaming revenue reaches MOP180,000,000 (equivalent to $22,458,937) (the "Incremental Investment Trigger"). As Macau's annual gross gaming revenue exceeded MOP180,000,000 (equivalent to $22,458,937) in 2023, the Incremental Investment Trigger was reached and, the non-gaming investment to be carried out was increased by MOP2,003,000 (equivalent to $249,918) to MOP12,011,000 (equivalent to $1,498,635), with the overall investment amount increased to MOP13,826,700 (equivalent to $1,725,183) to be carried out by December 2032. As of December 31, 2025, the total investment in gaming and non-gaming related projects carried out was in the aggregate amount of MOP5,724,193 (equivalent to $714,218).
