• Record Las Vegas Strip Adjusted Property EBITDAR and record second quarter Regional Operations Adjusted Property EBITDAR
  • Acquired the operations of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas; announced the sale of the operations of Gold Strike Tunica for $450 million
  • Repurchased $1.1 billion of shares of common stock during the second quarter, or 8% of outstanding shares
  • Continue to pursue a commercial gaming license in New York and development of an Integrated Resort in Osaka, Japan

MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) ("MGM Resorts" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

"Our second quarter results were outstanding, representing the best ever Adjusted Property EBITDAR quarter at the Company's Las Vegas Strip Resorts and best second quarter Adjusted Property EBITDAR at our Regional Operations driven by consistent strong demand from the leisure consumer and a return from our convention customers," said Bill Hornbuckle, Chief Executive Officer and President of MGM Resorts International. "We announced several important portfolio changes during the quarter, with the acquisition of the operations of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and the announcement of the sale of Gold Strike Tunica. We look to the future with optimism, as our convention and event calendar for the next year remain notably strong and BetMGM continues to be a market leader with a roadmap for growth. We remain focused on achieving our vision to be the world's premier gaming entertainment company."

"We see exceptional value in our Company's shares and have returned capital to our shareholders by repurchasing over $1.1 billion of our stock in the second quarter," said Jonathan Halkyard, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of MGM Resorts International. "Since early 2021, the execution of our asset light strategy has allowed us to repurchase 31% of our market cap while accumulating domestic cash in excess of debt on our balance sheet."

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:

Consolidated Results

  • Consolidated net revenues of $3.3 billion compared to $2.3 billion in the prior year quarter, an increase of 44%. The current quarter benefited from the inclusion of the operating results of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas ("The Cosmopolitan") and Aria and Vdara (collectively "Aria") upon acquisition in May 2022 and September 2021, respectively. Additionally, results improved over the prior year quarter due to increased business volume and travel activity primarily at the Las Vegas Strip Resorts;
  • Net income attributable to MGM Resorts of $1.8 billion, which included a gain related to the deconsolidation of MGM Growth Properties LLC ("MGP"), compared to $105 million in the prior year quarter;
  • Diluted earnings per share of $4.20 in the current quarter compared to $0.14 in the prior year quarter;
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS")(1) was $0.03 in the current quarter compared to a loss of $0.13 in the prior year quarter; and
  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR(2) of $920 million and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR margin(2) of 28.2% in the current quarter.
