    Источник: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 07 ноя 2023 08:03:12   America/New_York

    MACAU, Nov. 07, 2023 (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 2023.

    Total operating revenues for the third quarter of 2023 were US$137.6 million, compared with total operating revenues of negative US$2.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. The change was primarily attributable to the relaxation of COVID-19 related restrictions in Macau in January 2023 and the opening of Studio City Phase 2, which led to an increase in revenue from casino contract and higher non-gaming revenues.

    Studio City Casino generated gross gaming revenues of US$256.3 million and US$20.6 million for the third quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

    Studio City Casino’s rolling chip volume was US$713.6 million in the third quarter of 2023 versus US$42.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The rolling chip win rate was 1.78% in the third quarter of 2023 versus 4.18% in the third quarter of 2022. The expected rolling chip win rate range is 2.85%- 3.15%.

    Mass market table games drop increased to US$809.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared with US$61.9 million in the third quarter of 2022. The mass market table games hold percentage was 27.5% in the third quarter of 2023, compared with 25.6% in the third quarter of 2022.

    Gaming machine handle for the third quarter of 2023 was US$673.9 million, compared with US$98.2 million in the third quarter of 2022. The gaming machine win rate was 3.2% in the third quarter of 2023, compared with 3.1% in the third quarter of 2022.

    Revenue from casino contract was US$48.6 million for the third quarter of 2023, compared with revenue from casino contract of negative US$18.2 million for the third quarter of 2022. 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 Melco Resorts (Macau) Limited, the gaming operator of the Studio City Casino (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$207.7 million and US$38.8 million in the third quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

    Total non-gaming revenues at Studio City for the third quarter of 2023 were US$89.0 million, compared with US$15.4 million for the third quarter of 2022.

    Operating income for the third quarter of 2023 was US$3.2 million, compared with operating loss of US$72.5 million in the third quarter of 2022.

    Studio City generated Adjusted EBITDA(1) of US$56.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared with negative Adjusted EBITDA of US$39.5 million in the third quarter of 2022. The change was mainly attributable to the increase in revenue from casino contract and higher non-gaming revenues.

    Net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited for the third quarter of 2023 was US$28.4 million, compared with net loss attributable to Studio City International Holdings Limited of US$85.2 million in the third quarter of 2022. The net loss attributable to participation interest was US$2.7 million and US$8.0 million in the third quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

    Other Factors Affecting Earnings

    Total net non-operating expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were US$34.3 million, which mainly included interest expenses of US$36.4 million, partially offset by interest income of US$2.8 million.

    Depreciation and amortization costs of US$45.4 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2023, of which US$0.8 million was related to the amortization expense for the land use right.

    The Adjusted EBITDA for Studio City for the three months ended September 30, 2023 referred to in the earnings release of Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited (“Melco”) dated November 7, 2023 (“Melco’s earnings release”) is US$11.5 million more than the 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 gaming concession related costs and 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, 2023 aggregated to US$293.1 million (December 31, 2022: US$509.7 million), including US$0.1 million of restricted cash (December 31, 2022: US$0.1 million). Total debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue premiums, at the end of the third quarter of 2023 was US$2.43 billion (December 31, 2022: US$2.43 billion).

     (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.

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.
