Studio City International Holdings Limited Announces Unaudited Third Quarter 2022 Earnings

MACAU, Nov. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Studio City International Holdings Limited (NYSE: MSC) (“Studio City” or the “Company”), a world-class integrated resort located in Cotai, Macau, today reported its unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2022.

Total operating revenues for the third quarter of 2022 were negative US$2.8 million, compared to total operating revenues of US$18.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. The change was primarily attributable to the government mandated temporary casino closures in Macau in July and heightened travel restrictions in Macau and mainland China related to COVID-19 during the quarter which led to a decrease in revenue from casino contract and lower non-gaming revenues.

Studio City Casino generated gross gaming revenues of US$20.6 million and US$85.0 million for the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Studio City Casino’s rolling chip volume was US$42.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 versus US$472.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. The rolling chip win rate was 4.18% in the third quarter of 2022 versus 2.35% in the third quarter of 2021. The expected rolling chip win rate range is 2.85% - 3.15%.

Mass market table games drop decreased to US$61.9 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared with US$250.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. The mass market table games hold percentage was 25.6% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 26.4% in the third quarter of 2021.

Gaming machine handle for the third quarter of 2022 was US$98.2 million, compared with US$271.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. The gaming machine win rate was 3.1% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 2.9% in the third quarter of 2021.

Revenue from casino contract was negative US$18.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared with revenue from casino contract of negative US$8.6 million for the third quarter of 2021. Revenue from casino contract is net of gaming taxes and the costs incurred in connection with the on-going operation of the Studio City Casino which are deducted by the Gaming Operator.

Total gaming taxes and the costs incurred in connection with the on-going operation of the Studio City Casino deducted from gross gaming revenues were US$38.8 million and US$93.6 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Total non-gaming revenues at Studio City for the third quarter of 2022 were US$15.4 million, compared with US$27.3 million for the third quarter of 2021.

Operating loss for the third quarter of 2022 was US$72.5 million, compared with operating loss of US$55.7 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Studio City generated negative Adjusted EBITDA(1) of US$39.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to negative Adjusted EBITDA of US$23.1 million in the third quarter of 2021. The change was mainly attributable to the decrease in revenue from casino contract and lower non-gaming revenues.

Net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited for the third quarter of 2022 was US$85.2 million, compared with net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited of US$63.2 million in the third quarter of 2021. The net loss attributable to participation interest was US$8.0 million and US$12.4 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Other Factors Affecting Earnings

Total net non-operating expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were US$20.7 million, which mainly included interest expenses of US$23.2 million, net of amounts capitalized, partially offset by interest income of US$2.5 million.

Depreciation and amortization costs of US$31.9 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2022, of which US$0.8 million was related to the amortization expense for the land use right.

The negative Adjusted EBITDA for Studio City for the three months ended September 30, 2022 referred to in Melco’s earnings release dated November 2, 2022 (“Melco’s earnings release”) is US$8.1 million less than the negative Adjusted EBITDA of Studio City contained in this press release. The Adjusted EBITDA of Studio City contained in this press release includes certain intercompany charges that are not included in the Adjusted EBITDA for Studio City contained in Melco’s earnings release. Such intercompany charges include, among other items, fees and shared service charges billed between the Company and its subsidiaries and certain subsidiaries of Melco. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA of Studio City included in Melco’s earnings release does not reflect certain intercompany costs related to the table games operations at Studio City Casino.

Financial Position and Capital Expenditures

Total cash and bank balances as of September 30, 2022 aggregated to US$620.7 million (December 31, 2021: US$499.4 million), including US$0.1 million of restricted cash (December 31, 2021: US$0.1 million). Total debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue premiums, at the end of the third quarter of 2022 was US$2.43 billion (December 31, 2021: US$2.09 billion).

Capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2022 were US$132.4 million.

Recent Developments

Uncertainty around COVID-19 outbreaks and related restrictions continue to have a material effect on our operations, financial position, and future prospects into the fourth quarter of 2022.

On August 2, 2022, the validity of nucleic acid tests to enter Macau was set at 48 hours for entry from Zhuhai and was reduced to 24 hours from October 30, 2022. Since September 1, 2022, tourists became eligible to enter Macau without prior approval provided they held passports issued by the 41 countries specified by the Macau government or comply with certain conditions imposed by the Macau government, subject to valid nucleic acid tests, 7-day quarantine at a government designated facility and a 3-day self-monitoring period. On November 1, 2022, China’s National Immigration Administration commenced electronic processing of visa applications for individual or group travel to Macau.

Uncertainty around COVID-19 outbreaks is expected to continue for at least the remainder of 2022 with travel bans or restrictions, visa restrictions, and quarantine requirements being key factors impacting performance.

The construction of Studio City Phase 2 continues to progress on schedule with construction completion expected within 2022. We will monitor the market closely to determine the appropriate time to open and currently anticipate opening in stages, beginning in the second quarter of 2023.

Studio City Phase 2 will offer approximately 900 additional luxury hotel rooms and suites, an additional indoor/outdoor water park which is expected to be one of the largest in the world, a Cineplex, multiple fine-dining restaurants, and a total of approximately 1,100 square meters of state-of-the-art MICE space. Furthermore, the expansion will also feature a hotel tower under the W Hotel brand in partnership with Marriott International.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(1) "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as net income/loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other and other non-operating income and expenses. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results. This non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the impact of items that we do not consider indicative of the performance of our business. While we believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating our business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. It should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to net income/loss, cash flow or any other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities. The use of Adjusted EBITDA has material limitations as an analytical tool, as Adjusted EBITDA does not include all items that impact our net income/loss. In addition, the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA with the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP are provided herein immediately following the financial statements included in this press release.

(2) “Adjusted net income/loss” is net income/loss before pre-opening costs, property charges and other and loss on extinguishment of debt, net of participation interest. Adjusted net income/loss is presented as supplemental disclosure because management believes it provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our performance, in addition to income/loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted net income/loss may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Reconciliations of adjusted net income/loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited with the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP are provided herein immediately following the financial statements included in this press release.
