LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF GALAXY ENTERTAINMENT GROUP

I wish to take this opportunity to update you on the Macau market and our financial performance in Q1 2022. COVID-19 has continued to impact the community and businesses globally including Macau and GEG. The Group’s Q1 Adjusted EBITDA was $575 million, down 33% year-on-year and down 45% quarter-on-quarter. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is a result of recent outbreaks of COVID-19 in greater China. This resulted in tightening visitation policy to preserve public health and safety which, unfortunately, adversely impacted visitation to Macau and, in turn, revenue and profitability.

Whilst we experienced a modest uptick in visitation over the May Labor Holiday we do acknowledge it still remains well below pre-pandemic levels. During the May Labor Holiday our integrated resorts were more active including our hotels and restaurants among others. We believe that this bodes well for the future recovery of Macau as it signals pent up demand for leisure, tourism and travel.

Our balance sheet continues to remain solid in this challenging period with net cash of $24.5 billion where we continue to invest in GEG and Macau’s future with Cotai Phases 3 & 4. We are also pleased to report that we paid the previously announced special dividend of $0.30 per share on 29 April 2022. This attests to our long term confidence in Macau, our financial strength and our future earnings potential as we continue to navigate through the pandemic headwinds.

In regards to future development, Phase 3 is effectively completed and we continue to move forward with Phase 4. We continue our commitment to support the Macau government in its economic recovery and maintain the social stability of Macau. Notwithstanding the current economic environment, we continue with our disciplined approach to exploring opportunities within Mainland China with a particular focus on the Greater Bay Area.

We are pleased to report that in April 2022 we applied for an extension of our concession to 31 December 2022. We remain supportive of the regulatory process in Macau including a number of gaming related legislative initiatives and are also preparing for the forthcoming gaming concession tendering process.

Going forward in the medium to longer term, we remain confident in the future of Macau. However, we do acknowledge that further potential outbreaks of COVID-19 may impact our future financial performance. Finally, I would again like to acknowledge and thank the Government of Macau and the health and emergency personnel who have worked so hard to ensure the safety of Macau. I would also like to thank our staff, management team and Board of Directors who voluntarily contributed to the various cost savings programs and for being so supportive of our Company throughout the pandemic. Thank you!

Balance Sheet

Due to our conservative financial management, our balance sheet continues to remain strong. At 31 March 2022, cash and liquid investments were $35.0 billion and net cash was $24.5 billion. Total debt was $10.5 billion which primarily reflects our ongoing treasury yield management initiatives where interest income on cash holdings exceeds corresponding borrowing costs. Core debt remained minimal. This provides us with valuable flexibility in managing our ongoing operations and allows us to continue investing in our longer term development plans. The Group paid the previously announced special dividend of $0.30 per share on 29 April 2022. This attests to our confidence in Macau, our financial strength and our future earnings potential.

Galaxy Macau™

Galaxy Macau™ is the primary contributor to Group revenue and earnings. In Q1 2022, Galaxy Macau™’s Net Revenue was $3.1 billion, down 10% year-on-year and down 4% quarter-on-quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $724 million, down 5% year-on-year and down 5% quarter-on-quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 24% (Q1 2021: 22%).

In Q1 2022, Galaxy Macau™’s Normalized Adjusted EBITDA was $721 million after adjusting for good luck of $3 million, up 9% year-on-year and down 10% quarter-on-quarter. The combined five hotels occupancy rate was 37% for Q1 2022.

Construction Materials Division

The Construction Materials Division contributed Adjusted EBITDA of $119 million in Q1 2022, down 24% year-on-year and down 59% quarter-on-quarter. Please note that Q1 is historically a seasonally softer quarter compared to the other three quarters. The year-on-year variance is due primarily to challenging market conditions.

Development Update

Galaxy Macau™ and StarWorld Macau

We continue to make ongoing progressive enhancements to our resorts to ensure that they remain competitive and appealing to our guests.

Cotai – The Next Chapter

GEG is uniquely positioned for long term growth. Phase 3 is effectively completed and we look forward to welcoming the iconic Raffles at Galaxy Macau through an exclusive 450 all-suite tower. We will align the opening with prevailing market conditions. We intend to follow this with the opening of the GICC and Andaz Macau in anticipation of the recovery of the MICE and entertainment markets.

We are now firmly focused on the development of Phase 4, which is already well under way. We see the premium market evolving with this segment preferring higher quality and more spacious rooms. Cotai Phase 4 is an integrated resort for the next generation, which will complete our ecosystem in Cotai.

Phases 3 & 4 combined will have approximately 3,000 high end and family rooms and villas, 400,000 square feet of MICE space, a 500,000 square feet 16,000-seat multi-purpose arena, F&B, retail and casinos, among others. As you can see, we remain highly confident about the future of Macau where Cotai Phases 3 & 4 will support Macau’s vision of becoming a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure.

Future Development Opportunities

Notwithstanding the current economic environment, we continue with our disciplined approach to exploring opportunities within Mainland China, with a particular focus on the rapidly developing Greater Bay Area.

International

We continue to explore international expansion opportunities, but still believe that Macau offers the best longer term outlook.

Outlook

Under the COVID-19 “new normal”, GEG team members have been working hard to “do more with less” and have been very supportive of the various company initiatives and constantly striving for improvement. We believe that the reoccurrence of COVID-19 cases in Mainland China will continue to impact Macau tourism industry, which in turn could impact our associated revenue and profitability going forward. However, in the medium to longer term we continue to have great confidence in Macau and we are well positioned for growth with our Phases 3 & 4 projects which will capture the future growth in leisure and tourism from Mainland China. Notwithstanding the current economic environment, we continue with our disciplined approach to exploring opportunities within Mainland China with a particular focus on the Greater Bay Area.

During this down period of low visitor arrivals, we have taken this opportunity to renovate and upgrade our existing properties and focus on elevating service standards with continuous training, among others. We are well positioned to capture mass customers when the market returns as well as MICE business with the opening of the GICC. We continue to drive every segment of our business by enhancing operational efficiencies and exercising prudent cost control especially under the current market conditions.

Following the closure of the VIP business, we have been reallocating our resources and marketing efforts to the mass-oriented tourists whom appreciate GEG’s extensive array of resort offerings, such as a wide range of world class hotels, extensive F&B choices, wide selection of retail and non-gaming amenities such as the Grand Resort Deck. Macau concessionaires continue to working with the Macao Government Tourism Office to actively promote Macau as a safe tourism destination and has hosted a series of roadshows and exhibitions in a numbers of Mainland cities. We will continue to actively support this important government initiative.

Despite sporadic outbreaks in greater China over the past 2 years, Macau has demonstrated an ability to bounce back quickly when travel restrictions were eased, indicating solid pent up demand. Moreover, we continue to remain optimistic and encouraged that we see strong signs of healthy demand for Macau and are very confident that the leisure and tourism sector will bounce back.

In April 2022, we applied for the extension of our concession from 26 June 2022 to 31 December 2022. The amendment of Gaming Law has been positively received by the community. Given our track record of introducing innovative non-gaming elements into our resorts, our strong operational history, significant investment into Macau’s economy and our substantial CSR efforts including supporting SME’s, we are well positioned to compete for one of Macau’s forthcoming gaming concessions. We look forward for the approval from the Legislative Assembly and the completion of the concession bidding process.
