Melco Resorts & Entertainment Ltd
Investor Relations

Melco Resorts & Entertainment runs integrated resort properties, which means it combines casinos, hotels, restaurants, retail, and live entertainment in one destination. Its main business is gaming, but it also makes money from rooms, food and beverage, shows, and other guest spending. The company’s resorts are built to attract travelers who want a full leisure experience, not just a place to gamble. Its main customers are casino players, tourists, business travelers, and event guests who visit its properties in places such as Macau, the Philippines, and Cyprus. Melco earns most of its revenue from gaming activity, while its non-gaming businesses help fill the resorts and create a more complete stay. This mix gives it a different role from a pure casino company because it depends on both gaming demand and travel demand. Melco’s business model depends on owning or leasing resort assets and operating them under gaming licenses and local regulations. That makes it part hotel company, part casino operator, and part entertainment venue operator. For investors, the key idea is that Melco sells a destination experience: people come for the casino, but the company monetizes the whole trip.

AI Summary
Q1 2026

Strong quarter: Group adjusted property EBITDA rose 12% year over year to about $381 million, with Macau property EBITDA also up 12% and Macau GGR up about 10%.

Capital returns: The board approved a new $500 million share repurchase program, bringing total authorization to $710 million, and management said it still wants to resume the dividend by year-end.

Trademark deal: Melco bought key trademarks for $375 million, which management said gives it full control of the brand, removes royalty uncertainty and should immediately boost EBITDA and cash flow.

Growth drivers: Macau benefited from favorable win rates, while the Philippines posted 24% EBITDA growth and 9% GGR growth despite competitive pressure.

New projects: REM at City of Dreams Macau remains on track for a phased opening in early Q3 2026, and the retail refresh at COD is already underway with limited disruption expected.

Near-term outlook: Management said player reinvestment is stable for now, May Golden Week is looking better than expected, and April VIP trends were not concerning despite being a softer month.
