Las Vegas, NV (October 27, 2010) — Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

Company-Wide Operating Results

Net revenue for the third quarter of 2010 was a record $1.91 billion, an increase of 67.3% compared to $1.14 billion in the third quarter of 2009. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA in the third quarter of 2010 increased 136.9% to $645.2 million, compared to $272.3 million in the year-ago quarter. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA margin increased 990 basis points to 33.8% in the third quarter of 2010, compared to 23.9% in the third quarter of 2009.
 
On a GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) basis, operating income in the third quarter of 2010 increased to $383.3 million, compared to $62.4 million in the third quarter of 2009. The increase in operating income was principally due to stronger results across our portfolio of properties in Macau, and the first full quarter of operations at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

Adjusted net income (see Note 1) increased to $265.2 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to $20.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2009.

On a GAAP basis, net income attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of 2010 was $168.0 million, compared to net loss of $123.0 million in the third quarter of 2009. Diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of 2010 was $0.21, compared to a diluted loss per share of $0.19 in the prior year quarter. The improvement in our net income attributable to common stockholders of $291.0 million reflects the increase in operating income, partially offset by an increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests (primarily Sands China Ltd.).


Third Quarter Overview

Sheldon G. Adelson, chairman and CEO, stated, “We are incredibly pleased to report that records for revenues, adjusted property EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA margin were achieved during the third quarter of 2010. Strong revenue growth and increases in operational efficiency in Macau and outstanding results at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore contributed to substantial margin expansion and industry-leading financial performance overall. We measure our financial success by the generation of EBITDA, not by our share of market revenue.  We are therefore extremely proud to deliver an all-time quarterly record of $334.6 million of adjusted property EBITDA for our Macau operations, with both The Venetian Macao and Four Seasons Hotel Macao and Plaza Casino delivering substantial revenue and adjusted property EBITDA growth and margin expansion. In Las Vegas, increases in gaming volumes and hotel revenues allowed us to deliver $58.3 million of adjusted property EBITDA during the quarter.

“In Singapore, Marina Bay Sands, which just completed its first full quarter of operations, generated the highest quarterly adjusted property EBITDA and EBITDA margin from any single property in the history of our company. Marina Bay Sands produced $241.6 million of adjusted property EBITDA and an EBITDA margin of 49.7% during the quarter. Both gaming volumes and visitation to the property have continued to trend upward since our opening, and we are gratified by the overwhelming reception the property has received. One example of that growth is the increase in average daily adjusted property EBITDA of over 275% from May to October.  We are proud that Marina Bay Sands has already enhanced Singapore’s reputation as an international business and leisure destination.  Looking ahead, we are confident that Marina Bay Sands will provide an ideal platform for strong growth and outstanding returns for our company.”

Other Factors Affecting Earnings

Other Asia adjusted property EBITDA, which is principally composed of losses from our CotaiJet ferry operation, was negative $5.6 million in the quarter.

Pre-opening expenses, related principally to Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and the Shangri-La, Traders, Sheraton, St. Regis development on Parcels 5 & 6 of the Cotai Strip, decreased to $10.1 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to $28.9 million in the third quarter of 2009.
 
Depreciation and amortization expense was $186.7 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to $148.7 million in the third quarter of 2009. The increase was principally driven by the opening of Marina Bay Sands in April 2010.

Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, was $76.7 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to $88.5 million during the third quarter of 2009. Our weighted average borrowing cost in the third quarter of 2010 was 4.1%. Capitalized interest was $32.0 million during the third quarter of 2010, compared to $16.9 million during the third quarter of 2009.

Corporate expense was $28.7 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to $17.5 million in the third quarter of 2009. The increase was driven principally by higher incentive compensation expenses attributable to the company’s improved performance.

The company recorded a non-cash impairment loss of $16.1 million during the quarter primarily related to equipment in Macau that is expected to be disposed.

Other income, which was principally composed of foreign currency translation gains, was $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to other expense of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2009.

Loss on modification or early retirement of debt was primarily comprised of the write-down of deferred financing costs and fees associated with the company’s amend and extend transaction consummated during the third quarter.

The company’s effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2010 was 8.6%. The effective tax rate includes a provision for the earnings from Marina Bay Sands at the 17% Singapore income tax rate.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests during the third quarter of $54.3 million was principally related to Sands China Ltd.

Unrestricted cash balances as of September 30, 2010, were $2.39 billion, while restricted cash balances were $959.7 million. Of the restricted cash balances, $885.2 million pertains to construction for the Shangi-La, Traders, Sheraton, St. Regis development on Parcels 5 & 6 in Macau, and $61.5 million is restricted for construction of Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
