MGM RESORTS INTERNATIONAL AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

 

Organization.  MGM Resorts International (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that acts largely as a holding company and, through wholly owned subsidiaries, owns and/or operates casino resorts. The Company owns and operates the following casino resorts in Las Vegas, Nevada:  Bellagio, MGM Grand Las Vegas, The Mirage, Mandalay Bay, Luxor, New York-New York, Monte Carlo, Excalibur and Circus Circus Las Vegas.  Operations at MGM Grand Las Vegas include management of The Signature at MGM Grand Las Vegas, a condominium-hotel consisting of three towers.  Other Nevada operations include Circus Circus Reno, Gold Strike in Jean and Railroad Pass in Henderson.  The Company and its local partners own and operate MGM Grand Detroit in Detroit, Michigan. The Company owns and operates two resorts in Mississippi: Beau Rivage in Biloxi and Gold Strike Tunica.  The Company also owns Shadow Creek, an exclusive world-class golf course located approximately ten miles north of its Las Vegas Strip resorts, Primm Valley Golf Club at the California/Nevada state line and Fallen Oak golf course in Saucier, Mississippi.

 

The Company owns 51% and has a controlling interest in MGM China Holdings Limited (“MGM China”), which owns MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. (“MGM Grand Paradise”), the Macau company that owns the MGM Macau resort and casino and the related gaming subconcession and land concession. As further discussed in Note 3, the Company began consolidating the results of MGM China on June 3, 2011 and ceased recording the results of MGM Macau as an equity method investment.

 

The Company owns 50% of CityCenter, located between Bellagio and Monte Carlo. The other 50% of CityCenter is owned by Infinity World Development Corp (“Infinity World”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dubai World, a Dubai, United Arab Emirates government decree entity. CityCenter consists of Aria, a casino resort; Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas, a non-gaming boutique hotel; Crystals, a retail, dining and entertainment district; and Vdara, a luxury condominium-hotel. In addition, CityCenter features residential units in the Residences at Mandarin Oriental and Veer.  The Company receives a management fee of 2% of revenues for the management of Aria and Vdara, and 5% of EBITDA (as defined in the agreements governing the Company’s management of Aria and Vdara). In addition, the Company receives an annual fee of $3 million for the management of Crystals.

 

The Company has a 50% interest in Grand Victoria and a 50% interest in Silver Legacy. Grand Victoria is a riverboat casino in Elgin, Illinois; an affiliate of Hyatt Gaming owns the other 50% of Grand Victoria and also operates the resort. Silver Legacy is located in Reno, adjacent to Circus Circus Reno, and the other 50% is owned by Eldorado LLC.  See Note 4 for additional information related to Grand Victoria and Silver Legacy.

 

MGM Hospitality seeks to leverage the Company’s management expertise and well-recognized brands through strategic partnerships and international expansion opportunities.  The Company has entered into management agreements for non-gaming resorts in the Middle East, North Africa, India and China, as well as a casino resort in Vietnam.

 

Borgata. The Company has a 50% economic interest in Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa (“Borgata”) located on Renaissance Pointe in the Marina area of Atlantic City, New Jersey. Boyd Gaming Corporation (“Boyd”) owns the other 50% of Borgata and also operates the resort.   The Company’s interest is held in trust and currently offered for sale pursuant to the Company’s amended settlement agreement with New Jersey Department of Gaming Enforcement (“DGE”) and approved by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission (“CCC”). The terms of the amended settlement agreement mandate the sale by March 2014. The Company has the right to direct the sale through March 2013, subject to approval of the CCC, and the trustee is responsible for selling the trust property during the following 12-month period.

 

The Company consolidates the trust as it is the sole economic beneficiary and accounts for its interest in Borgata under the cost method. As of June 30, 2012, the trust had $162 million of cash and investments, of which $135 million is held in U.S. treasury securities with maturities greater than three months but less than one year, and is recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other.” Distributions received by the trust that do not exceed the Company’s share of earnings are recognized currently in earnings. However, distributions received by the trust that exceed the Company’s share of earnings for such periods are applied to reduce the carrying amount of its investment.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, $3 million and $26 million, respectively were withdrawn from the trust account for the payment of property taxes and interest on the Company’s senior credit facility, as authorized in accordance with the terms of the trust agreement.

NOTE 2— BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation.  As permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2011 annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments — which include only normal recurring adjustments — necessary to present fairly the Company’s interim financial statements.  The results for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

Fair value measurement.  Fair value measurements affect the Company’s accounting and impairment assessments of its long-lived assets, investments in unconsolidated affiliates, cost method investments, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition, goodwill and other intangible assets. Fair value measurements also affect the Company’s accounting for certain of its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes: Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices in an active market; Level 2 inputs, which are observable inputs for similar assets; or Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs. At June 30, 2012, the fair value of the Company’s treasury securities held by the Borgata trust was $135 million, measured using Level 1 inputs. See Note 1 for additional information related to the Borgata trust. When assessing the impairment of its investment in Grand Victoria at June 30, 2012, the Company estimated fair value utilizing “Level 3” inputs. See Note 4 for additional information related to the impairment of the Company’s investment in Grand Victoria.  The Company uses Level 1 inputs for its long-term debt fair value disclosures.

 

Income tax provision.  The Company recognizes deferred tax assets, net of applicable reserves, related to net operating loss carryforwards and certain temporary differences with a future tax benefit to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not.  Otherwise, a valuation allowance is applied. Given the negative impact of the U.S. economy on the results of operations in the past several years and expectations that its recovery will be tempered by certain aspects of the current economic conditions such as weaknesses in employment conditions and the housing market, the Company no longer relies on future domestic operating income in assessing the realization of its domestic deferred tax assets and now relies only on the future reversal of existing domestic taxable temporary differences.  As of June 30, 2012, the scheduled future reversal of existing U.S. federal deductible temporary differences exceeds the scheduled future reversal of existing U.S. federal taxable temporary differences.  Therefore, the Company began recording in the current year a valuation allowance for U.S. federal deferred tax assets in order to account for this excess, resulting in additional tax provision of $69 million and $181 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

 

In June 2012, MGM Grand Paradise reached an agreement with the Macau government to settle the 12% complementary tax that would otherwise be due by its shareholders on distributions of its gaming profits by paying a flat annual payment (“annual fee arrangement”).  Such arrangement covers the years 2007 through 2011 including the distribution that was made in March 2012 (the “covered period”).  Cumulative annual payments of $4 million for the covered period were paid and a corresponding reduction to benefit for income taxes was recorded for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012.  Shareholders of MGM Grand Paradise are not subject to the complementary tax on distributions they received during the covered period as a result of this arrangement.  Consequently, the Company reversed complementary taxes previously accrued on such distributions in the amount of $63 million, and recorded a corresponding increase to benefit for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase to benefit for income taxes amounted to $19 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 because the Company accrued $44 million of complementary taxes in the first quarter of 2012.  MGM Grand Paradise has submitted a request for a five year extension of the annual fee arrangement beyond the covered period which is pending with the Macau government.  If this extension is not granted, MGM China would be subject to complementary taxes on distributions made by MGM Grand Paradise after the covered period.  However, MGM China would not accrue additional complementary tax in 2012 until MGM Grand Paradise (1) no longer has a cumulative deficit in U.S. GAAP pretax earnings, which amounted to $213 million at June 30, 2012, or (2) distributes additional earnings, but would accrue additional complementary tax beginning in 2013 on (1) U.S GAAP earnings accruing after 2012 or (2) distributions of additional earnings.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards.  Certain amendments to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” became effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Such amendments included a consistent definition of fair value, enhanced disclosure requirements for “Level 3” fair value adjustments and other changes to required disclosures.  The Company’s adoption of these amendments did not have a material effect on its financial statements.

Table of Contents

 

In June 2011, ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” was amended and became effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Company elected to present a separate statement of comprehensive income which provides each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income.  The Company’s adoption of this amendment did not have a material effect on its financial statements.

 

In September 2011, ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Others,” was amended to simplify the assessment of goodwill impairment and became effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  The amended guidance allows the Company to do an initial qualitative assessment of relative events and circumstances to determine if fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than its carrying value, prior to performing the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test.  The Company’s adoption of this amendment did not have a material effect on its financial statements.

 

In July 2012, ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Others,” was amended to simplify the assessment of testing the impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill and will become effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  The amended guidance allows the Company to do an initial qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than their carrying amounts prior to performing the quantitative indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test. The Company does not believe the adoption of this amendment will have a material effect on its financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 — MGM CHINA ACQUISITION

 

On June 3, 2011, the Company and Ms. Ho, Pansy Catilina Chiu King (“Ms. Pansy Ho”) completed a reorganization of the capital structure of MGM China and the initial public offering of 760 million shares of MGM China on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “IPO”), representing 20% of the post issuance capital stock of MGM China, at an offer price of HKD 15.34 per share. Pursuant to this reorganization, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an additional 1% of the overall capital stock of MGM China for HKD 15.34 per share, or approximately $75 million, and thereby became the indirect owner of 51% of MGM China.

 

Through the acquisition of its additional 1% interest of MGM China, the Company obtained a controlling interest and was required to consolidate MGM China as of June 3, 2011. Prior to the IPO, the Company held a 50% interest in MGM Grand Paradise, which was accounted for under the equity method as discussed in Note 4. The acquisition of the controlling financial interest was accounted for as a business combination and the Company recognized 100% of the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests of MGM China at fair value at the date of acquisition. The fair value of the equity interests of MGM China was determined by the IPO transaction price and equaled approximately $7.5 billion. The carrying value of the Company’s equity method investment was significantly less than its share of the fair value of MGM China at the acquisition date, resulting in a $3.5 billion gain on the acquisition. Under the acquisition method, the fair value was allocated to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests recorded in the transaction. The following table sets forth the allocation at June 3, 2011 (in thousands):

As discussed above, the Company recognized the identifiable intangible assets of MGM China at fair value. The gaming subconcession and land concession had historical cost bases which were being amortized by MGM Macau. The customer relationship intangible assets did not have historical cost bases at MGM Macau. The estimated fair values of the intangible assets acquired were primarily determined using Level 3 inputs.  The gaming subconcession was valued using an excess earnings model based on estimated future cash flows of MGM Macau.  All of the recognized intangible assets were determined to have finite lives and are being amortized over their estimated useful lives as discussed below.

Table of Contents

 

Gaming subconcession.  Pursuant to the agreement dated June 19, 2004 between MGM Grand Paradise and Sociedade de Jogos de Macau, S.A. (“SJM”), a gaming subconcession was acquired by MGM Grand Paradise for the right to operate casino games of chance and other casino games for a period of 15 years commencing on April 20, 2005. The Company cannot provide any assurance that the gaming subconcession will be extended beyond the original terms of the agreement; however, management believes that the gaming subconcession will be extended, given that the land concession agreement with the government extends significantly beyond the gaming subconcession. In addition, management believes that the fair value of MGM China reflected in the IPO pricing suggests that market participants have assumed the gaming subconcession will be extended beyond its initial term. As such, the Company is amortizing the gaming subconcession intangible asset on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the land concession through April 6, 2031.

 

Land concession.  MGM Grand Paradise entered into a contract with the Macau government to use the land under MGM Macau commencing from April 6, 2006.  The land use right has an initial term through April 6, 2031, subject to renewal for additional periods. The land concession intangible asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining initial contractual term.

 

Customer lists. The Company recognized an intangible asset related to customer lists, which is amortized on an accelerated basis over its estimated useful life of five years.

 

Gaming promoter relationships.  The Company recognized an intangible asset related to its relationships with gaming promoters, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of four years.

 

Deferred taxes.  The Company recorded a net deferred tax liability of $381 million for the acquisition of the controlling financial interest in MGM China and a corresponding increase to goodwill.  The net deferred tax liability represents the excess of the financial reporting amounts of the net assets of MGM China over their respective bases under Macau tax law measured at the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods such differences are expected to be realized, net of a valuation allowance of $72 million. The tax-effected components of the net deferred tax liability at June 3, 2011 are as follows (in thousands):

Income generated from gaming operations of MGM Grand Paradise is exempted from Macau’s 12% complementary tax for the five-year period ending December 31, 2016 pursuant to approval from the Macau government granted on September 22, 2011.  The exemption from the Macau 12% complementary tax on gaming profits does not apply to dividend distributions of such profits to MGM China, its sole shareholder.  However, in June 2012, MGM Grand Paradise reached an agreement with the Macau government to settle the 12% complementary tax that would otherwise be due by its shareholders (including MGM China) on distributions of its gaming profits by paying a flat annual payment. Such agreement covers the years 2007 through 2011, including the distribution made during the first quarter of 2012. MGM China is still subject to the 12% complementary tax on dividend distributions after the covered period.  See Note 2 for further discussion of the complementary tax.

 

Non-gaming operations remain subject to the complementary tax.  At June 3, 2011 MGM Grand Paradise had a complementary tax net operating loss carryforward of $490 million resulting from non-gaming operations that will expire if not utilized against non-gaming income in years 2011 through 2013. The Macanese net operating loss carryforwards are fully offset by valuation allowance.

At June 3, 2011, the Company had an excess amount for financial reporting over the U.S. tax basis of its investment in MGM China of $3.6 billion that management does not consider to be essentially permanent in duration.  The Company expects this basis difference to resolve through repatriations of future MGM China earnings.  The Company has not provided U.S. deferred taxes for such excess financial reporting basis because there would be sufficient foreign tax credits to offset all U.S. income tax that would result from the future repatriation of such earnings.

Grand Victoria

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company reviewed the carrying value of its Grand Victoria investment for impairment due to a decrease in operating results at the property and the loss of market share as a result of the opening of a new river boat casino in the Illinois market, as well as a decrease in forecasted cash flows for 2013 through 2015.  Management used a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the estimated fair value from a market participant’s point of view.  Key assumptions included in the analysis were estimates of future cash flows including outflows for capital expenditures, a long-term growth rate of 2% and a discount rate of 10.5%.  As a result of the discounted cash flow analysis, management determined that it was necessary to record an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $85 million based on an estimated fair value of $205 million for the Company’s 50% interest.  The Company intends to, and believes it will be able to, retain its investment in Grand Victoria; however, due to the extent of the shortfall and the Company’s assessment of the uncertainty of fully recovering its investment, the Company has determined that the impairment was other-than-temporary.

 

Silver Legacy

 

Silver Legacy had approximately $143 million of outstanding senior secured notes that were due in March 2012.  Silver Legacy did not repay its notes at maturity and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May 2012. These notes are non-recourse to the Company.  The Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge at December 31, 2011 which decreased the carrying value of its investment to zero. The Company also ceased applying the equity method for its investment in Silver Legacy and will not provide for additional losses until its share of future net income, if any, equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

 

MGM Macau

 

As discussed in Note 3, the Company obtained a controlling financial interest in MGM China as of June 3, 2011 and therefore was required to consolidate MGM China beginning on that date. Prior thereto, the Company’s investment in MGM Grand Paradise was accounted for under the equity method.

February 2012 senior secured notes.  In February 2012, CityCenter issued $240 million in aggregate principal amount of its 7.625% senior secured first lien notes due 2016 in a private placement.

 

March 2012 amended and restated credit agreement.  In March 2012, CityCenter entered into a second amendment and restatement of its senior credit facility.  The loans outstanding under the prior credit agreement were repaid in full.  No loans were outstanding under the amended credit agreement at June 30, 2012. The amended CityCenter credit facility consists of a $75 million revolving facility which matures January 21, 2015, and loans that will bear interest at a base rate (as defined) plus 4%, or in the case of Eurodollar loans, at the Eurodollar rate (as defined) plus 5%. The amended credit agreement contains covenants that, among other things, restricts CityCenter from incurring additional indebtedness, making distributions to equity interests, selling assets and entering into certain transfers. In addition, CityCenter is required to maintain specified minimum trailing twelve month EBITDA (as defined in the agreement governing its credit facility) levels.

 

2011 Residential inventory impairment.  CityCenter is required to carry its residential inventory at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value of the residential inventory is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s current expectations of future cash flows. The key inputs in the discounted cash flow analysis include estimated sales prices, the absorption rate over the sell-out period, and the discount rate.  CityCenter recorded a $53 million impairment charge in the second quarter of 2011.  The Company recognized 50% of such impairment charge, resulting in a pre-tax charge of approximately $26 million.

As of June 30, 2012, a portion of the principal amount of senior notes due within one year of the balance sheet date is classified as short-term because the amount due exceeds available borrowings under the senior credit facility.  Amounts outstanding under the MGM Grand Paradise credit facility were classified as long-term as MGM Grand Paradise has both the intent and ability to repay scheduled amortization payments under the term loan due within one year of the balance sheet date with available borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Senior credit facility. The Company’s senior credit facility was amended and restated in February 2012, and loans and revolving commitments aggregating approximately $1.8 billion (the “extending loans”) were extended to February 2015.  In accordance with the amendment, the Company repaid $409 million of outstanding loans to extending lenders. In March 2012, an additional $24 million in term loans were extended and the Company repaid the remaining non-extending term loans. At June 30, 2012, the senior credit facility consisted of approximately $820 million in term loans and a $1.3 billion revolver ($360 million of which has not been extended and matures in February 2014) and had approximately $855 million of available borrowing capacity.  In connection with the amendment and subsequent repayment of the non-extending loans, the Company recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of $59 million related to previously recorded discounts and certain debt issuance costs.

 

As of December 31, 2011, interest on the senior credit facility was based on a LIBOR margin of 5.00%, with a LIBOR floor of 2.00%, and a base rate margin of 4.00%, with a base rate floor of 4.00%. The non-extended revolving loans continue to be subject to this pricing. Interest on the extending loans is subject to a LIBOR floor of 1% and a pricing grid based upon collateral coverage levels. The interest rate on extending loans was 5% at June 30, 2012. Interest on non-extending revolving loans remains at 7%. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the senior credit facility at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was 5.2% and 7.0%, respectively.

 

The senior credit facility allows the Company to refinance indebtedness maturing prior to February 23, 2015 but limits its ability to prepay later maturing indebtedness until the extended facilities are paid in full. The Company may issue unsecured debt, equity-linked and equity securities to refinance its outstanding indebtedness; however, the Company is required to use net proceeds from certain indebtedness issued in amounts in excess of $250 million (excluding amounts used to refinance indebtedness) to ratably prepay the credit facilities in an amount equal to 50% of the net cash proceeds of such excess. The Company is no longer required to use net proceeds from equity offerings to prepay the senior credit facility in connection with the restatement of the senior credit facility. In addition, the Company agreed to deliver a mortgage, limited in amount to comply with indenture restrictions, encumbering the Beau Rivage.  The Company delivered such mortgage in March 2012.

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company is required to maintain a minimum trailing twelve month consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the agreement governing its senior credit facility) of $1.2 billion for each of the quarters of 2012, increasing to $1.25 billion at March 31, 2013, to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2013, and to $1.4 billion at March 31, 2014. EBITDA for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2012 calculated in accordance with the terms of the senior credit facility was $1.3 billion.  Additionally, the Company and its restricted subsidiaries are limited to $500 million of annual capital expenditures (as defined) during 2012; the Company was in compliance with the maximum capital expenditures covenants at June 30, 2012.

 

Substantially all of the assets of MGM Grand Detroit serve as collateral to secure its $450 million obligation outstanding as a co-borrower under the Company’s senior credit facility. In addition, substantially all of the assets of Gold Strike Tunica, substantially all of the assets of Beau Rivage and certain land across from the Luxor serve as collateral to secure up to $578 million of obligations outstanding under the Company’s senior credit facility.

 

MGM Grand Paradise credit facility. MGM Grand Paradise’s credit facility is comprised of approximately $553 million in term loans and a $400 million revolving loan.  The outstanding balance of MGM Grand Paradise’s credit facility at June 30, 2012 is comprised solely of term loans.  Scheduled amortization on the term loans begins in July 2012 with a lump sum payment of approximately $276 million upon final maturity in July 2015.  The revolving loan may be redrawn, but is required to be repaid in full on the last date of the respective term loan, no later than July 2015.  Interest on the term loan facility is based on HIBOR plus a margin ranging between 3% and 4.5%, based on MGM Grand Paradise’s adjusted leverage ratio, as defined in its credit facility agreement.  Interest on the revolving facility can be denominated in either Hong Kong dollars or U.S. dollars and is based on the same margin range, plus HIBOR or LIBOR, as appropriate.  As of June 30, 2012, the credit facility is denominated entirely in Hong Kong dollars and interest is based on a margin of 3%, plus HIBOR. Substantially all of the assets of MGM Grand Paradise serve as collateral for the MGM Grand Paradise credit facility, which is guaranteed by MGM China and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

 

At June 30, 2012, MGM Grand Paradise was required to maintain a specified adjusted leverage ratio, as defined, at the end of each quarter while the loans are outstanding. The adjusted leverage ratio is required to be no greater than 3.50 to 1.00. In addition, MGM Grand Paradise is required to maintain a debt service coverage ratio (as defined in the agreement governing its credit facility) of no less than 1.50 to 1.00 at each quarter end. At June 30, 2012, MGM Grand Paradise was in compliance with its adjusted leverage ratio and debt service coverage ratio.

Senior and senior secured notes.  In January 2012 the Company issued $850 million of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 for net proceeds to the Company of approximately $836 million. In March 2012, the Company issued $1.0 billion of 7.75% senior notes due 2022 for net proceeds to the Company of approximately $986 million.  The notes are unsecured and otherwise rank equally in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness.

 

Substantially all of the assets of New York-New York serve as collateral for the Company’s 13% senior secured notes due 2013, substantially all of the assets of Bellagio and The Mirage serve as collateral for the Company’s 10.375% senior secured notes due 2014 and the 11.125% senior secured notes due 2017 and substantially all of the assets of MGM Grand serve as collateral for the Company’s 9.00% senior secured notes due 2020. Upon the issuance of the 10.375%, 11.125% and 9.00% notes, the holders of the Company’s 13% senior secured notes due 2013 obtained an equal and ratable lien in all collateral securing these notes.  In addition, the holders of the Company’s 13% senior secured notes obtained an equal and ratable lien in the Beau Rivage collateral upon the issuance of such collateral.

 

Fair value of long-term debt. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt at June 30, 2012 was approximately $14.1 billion.  At December 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $13.7 billion. Fair value was estimated using quoted market prices for the Company’s senior notes, senior subordinated notes and senior credit facility.  Carrying value of the MGM Grand Paradise credit facility approximates fair value.

 

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

CityCenter completion guarantee.  In January 2011, the Company entered into an amended completion and cost overrun guarantee.  Consistent with the terms of the previous completion guarantee, the terms of the amended completion guarantee provide for the ability to utilize the then remaining $124 million of net residential proceeds to fund construction costs, or to reimburse the Company for construction costs previously expended, though the timing of receipt of such proceeds is uncertain.  The completion guarantee is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Circus Circus Las Vegas, as well as certain undeveloped land adjacent to that property.

 

As of June 30, 2012, the Company has funded $670 million under the completion guarantee. The Company has recorded a receivable from CityCenter of $101 million related to these amounts, which represents amounts reimbursable to the Company from CityCenter from future residential proceeds. The Company has a remaining estimated net obligation under the completion guarantee of $18 million which includes estimated litigation costs related to the resolution of disputes with contractors as to the final construction costs and estimated amounts to be paid to contractors through the legal process related to the Perini litigation. The Company’s accrual also reflects certain estimated offsets to the amounts claimed by the contractors.  CityCenter has reached settlement agreements with all but seven of Perini’s first-tier subcontractors.  However, significant disputes remain with the general contractor and the remaining subcontractors.  Amounts claimed by such parties exceed amounts included in the Company’s completion guarantee accrual by approximately $189 million, as such amounts exceed the Company’s best estimate of its liability. Moreover, the Company has not accrued for any contingent payments to CityCenter related to the Harmon Hotel & Spa component, which will not be completed using the building as it now stands.

 

The Clark County Building Division (the “Building Division”) retained a structural engineering consultant to provide with respect to the Harmon building “an engineering analysis to determine the structural stability of the as-built condition…”  The report from the Building Division’s structural engineering consultant, however, stated: “It is our understanding that the full nature and extent of the current as-built condition has not been documented or provided to us at the current time.  We based this study only on information that was obtained from the available design documents, non-compliance reports and limited visual observations.”  Thus, the Building Division’s structural engineering consultant apparently did not perform other testing or a relevant analysis of the building in its current, as-built condition.

 

Among its general findings the report of the Building Division’s structural engineering consultant stated: “Our analytical findings suggest that the as-designed Harmon Tower structure is structurally stable under design loads from a maximum considered earthquake (MCE) event;” and further, “Our analysis indicates that the as-designed strength of Harmon Tower’s shear wall system is generally sufficient to resist the design loads from a maximum considered earthquake (MCE).”  The report from the Building Division’s structural engineering consultant recommended further study of the Harmon building’s vulnerabilities.  Accordingly, since the County’s consultant did not appear to have performed an as-built analysis, the report that was issued has minimal value if any in resolution of the issues presented to CityCenter’s pending litigation with Perini.

The Building Division requested that CityCenter conduct an analysis, based on all available information, as to the structural stability of the Harmon under building-code-specified load combinations.  On July 11, 2011 a consulting engineer engaged by CityCenter for this review submitted the results of his analysis of the Harmon tower and podium in its current as-built condition.  The engineer opined, among other things, that “[i]n a code-level earthquake, using either the permitted or current code specified loads, it is likely that critical structural members in the tower will fail and become incapable of supporting gravity loads, leading to a partial or complete collapse of the tower.  There is missing or misplaced reinforcing steel in columns, beams, shear walls, and transfer walls throughout the structure of the tower below the twenty-first floor.”  In response to this opinion, on July 12, 2011 the Building Division required CityCenter, no later than August 15, 2011, “to provide a plan of action that will abate the potential for structural collapse and protect impacted uses and occupancies.”  Under the relevant building code provision, “abate” means repair, rehabilitation, demolition or removal of the subject building.

 

On August 15, 2011, after expert consultation, CityCenter submitted its reply to the Building Division.  CityCenter informed the Building Division it has decided to abate the potential for structural collapse of the Harmon in the event of a code-level earthquake by demolishing the building, and enclosed a plan of action for demolition by implosion prepared by LVI Environmental Services of Nevada, Inc.  CityCenter also advised that prior to undertaking the demolition plan of action, it will seek relief from a standing order of the District Court judge presiding over the Perini litigation that prohibits alteration or destruction of the building without court approval.  In addition, CityCenter supplied the foundational data for the engineering conclusions stated in the July 11, 2011 letter declaring the Harmon’s structural instability in the event of a code-level earthquake.

 

The Building Division advised CityCenter that the Building Division’s staff would review CityCenter’s August 15, 2011 submission and then issue its conclusions to CityCenter, but the Building Division did not specify a date for such guidance.  By letter dated August 18, 2011, the Building Division requested a meeting with CityCenter’s retained engineering firm concerning its conclusions regarding the Harmon’s as-built condition.  Pursuant to this request by the Building Division, representatives from CityCenter’s retained engineering firm met with the Building Division and directly responded to the Building Division’s inquiries.

 

On November 22, 2011, the Building Division informed CityCenter by letter that “[b]ased on the information provided to Clark County Development Services including but not limited to the Weidlinger & Associates Letter of August 11, 2011 and subsequent conversations, it is required that MGM Resorts submit a plan abating the code deficiencies discovered in the Harmon Tower.”  CityCenter made a motion to the court presiding over the Perini litigation for permission to proceed with the demolition of the Harmon in advance of the conclusion of the litigation.  The hearing on that motion, which Perini and its Harmon-related subcontractors oppose, commenced on March 12, 2012.  After several days of testimony, the hearing was continued and scheduled to reconvene in July 2012, after the completion of further related proceedings, due to the scope of legal issues presented at the hearing.  On July 16, 2012 the hearing resumed, and after several additional days of testimony, on July 19, 2012 the court ruled that an adequate opportunity for investigation and observation of the Harmon had occurred, and granted CityCenter’s motion to demolish the Harmon with two conditions.  First, the court indicated it would approve a subcontractor’s application for additional nondestructive and destructive testing filed within 10 days of the order.  Second, the court stated that the following jury instruction would be given if demolition had occurred at the time of trial:  “CityCenter has made a business decision to demolish the Harmon.  The mere fact that the Harmon has been demolished is not evidence of any nonconformance with code or plans.  It is not evidence of any constructional defect or any safety issues at the Harmon.  You are to make all decisions in this case based upon the evidence presented here in court.”  At the conclusion of the evidentiary hearing the court ruled that due to his method of selecting certain test locations, statistically extrapolated data derived from those test locations would be inappropriate to present to the jury as the basis for the opinion of CityCenter’s structural engineer about certain defects at the Harmon.  Accordingly, CityCenter will make an application to the court for permission to conduct additional destructive testing at the Harmon prior to its demolition.

 

CityCenter also resubmitted the plan of abatement action prepared by LVI which was submitted on August 15, 2011, and applied to the Building Division for appropriate demolition permits and approvals.  Those applications are pending.

 

The Company does not believe it would be responsible for funding under the completion guarantee any additional remediation efforts that might be required with respect to the Harmon; however, the Company’s view is based on a number of developing factors, including with respect to on-going litigation with CityCenter’s contractors, actions by local officials and other developments related to the CityCenter venture, that are subject to change. CityCenter’s revolving credit facility provides that certain demolition or repair expenses may be funded only from (i) Member contributions designated for demolition of the Harmon, (ii) the proceeds of certain specified extraordinary receipts (which include any proceeds from the Perini litigation) or (iii) cash or cash equivalents in an amount not to exceed $30 million in the aggregate. Based on current estimates, which are subject to change, the Company believes the demolition of the Harmon would cost approximately $31 million.

CityCenter construction litigation. In March 2010, Perini Building Company, Inc. (“Perini”), general contractor for CityCenter, filed a lawsuit in the Eighth Judicial District Court for Clark County, State of Nevada, against MGM MIRAGE Design Group (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company which was the original party to the Perini construction agreement) and certain direct or indirect subsidiaries of CityCenter Holdings, LLC (the “CityCenter Owners”). Perini asserts that CityCenter was substantially completed, but the defendants failed to pay Perini approximately $490 million allegedly due and owing under the construction agreement for labor, equipment and materials expended on CityCenter. The complaint further charges the defendants with failure to provide timely and complete design documents, late delivery to Perini of design changes, mismanagement of the change order process, obstruction of Perini’s ability to complete the Harmon component, and fraudulent inducement of Perini to compromise significant amounts due for its general conditions. The complaint advances claims for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, tortious breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unjust enrichment and promissory estoppel, and fraud and intentional misrepresentation. Perini seeks compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs.

 

In April 2010, Perini served an amended complaint in this case which joins as defendants many owners of CityCenter residential condominium units (the “Condo Owner Defendants”), adds a count for foreclosure of Perini’s recorded master mechanic’s lien against the CityCenter property in the amount of approximately $491 million, and asserts the priority of this mechanic’s lien over the interests of the CityCenter Owners, the Condo Owner Defendants and CityCenter lenders in the CityCenter property.

 

The CityCenter Owners and the other defendants dispute Perini’s allegations, and contend that the defendants are entitled to substantial amounts from Perini, including offsets against amounts claimed to be owed to Perini and its subcontractors and damages based on breach of their contractual and other duties to CityCenter, duplicative payment requests, non-conforming work, lack of proof of alleged work performance, defective work related to the Harmon, property damage and Perini’s failure to perform its obligations to pay certain subcontractors and to prevent filing of liens against CityCenter.  Parallel to the court litigation, CityCenter management conducted an extra-judicial program for settlement of CityCenter subcontractor claims.  CityCenter has resolved the claims of 215 first-tier Perini subcontractors (including the claims of any lower-tier subcontractors that might have claims through those first-tier subcontractors), with only seven remaining for further proceedings along with trial of Perini’s claims and CityCenter’s Harmon-related counterclaim and other claims by CityCenter against Perini and its parent guarantor, Tutor Perini.  Three of the remaining subcontractors are implicated in the defective work at the Harmon.  In June 2012, Perini recorded an amended notice of lien reducing its lien to approximately $240 million.  On July 3, 2012, CityCenter served Perini with a demand supported by the necessary paperwork requesting that Perini reduce its lien by an additional $33 million for a revised lien of $207 million, and Perini has stated in a court filing that it intends to make the requested reduction.  In addition to this anticipated reduction, CityCenter believes it may be entitled to a further lien reduction of approximately $13 million (for a revised lien amount of $195 million, including certain liens not related to Perini’s lien) based on a partial payment to subcontractor Fisk Electric once the Company has provided the court and Perini with the required information.

 

Perini made a motion for partial summary judgment as to the validity and enforceability of its mechanic’s lien.  After hearing on the motion, on July 9, 2012 the court granted Perini’s motion.  The court ruled that Perini’s notice of lien and the amended notices of lien recorded constitute a valid and enforceable mechanic’s lien “subject to at some point a determination of the amount of the lien and whether the lien is frivolous, overstated, or an appropriate setoff is due as a result of the counterclaims that CityCenter has made in this litigation.”

 

The court has set a new trial date of June 24, 2013 for the consolidated action involving the claims of Perini, the remaining Perini subcontractors and any related third parties, and CityCenter’s counterclaim against Perini and other parties for defective construction of the Harmon and other nonconforming work, and also amended other significant pre-trial dates.  Discovery is in process.  The CityCenter Owners and the other defendants will continue to vigorously assert and protect their interests in the Perini lawsuit. The Company believes that a loss with respect to Perini’s punitive damages claim is neither probable nor reasonably possible.  Please refer to the disclosure above for further discussion on the Company’s completion guarantee obligation which may be impacted by the outcome of the above litigation and the joint venture’s extra-judicial settlement process.

 

Sales and use tax on complimentary meals.  In March 2008, the Nevada Supreme Court ruled, in a case involving another gaming company, that food and non-alcoholic beverages purchased for use in providing complimentary meals to customers and to employees were exempt from use tax.  The Company had previously paid use tax on these items and has generally filed for refunds for the periods from January 2001 to February 2008 related to this matter. The Company is claiming the exemption on sales and use tax returns for

Table of Contents

 

periods after February 2008 in light of this Nevada Supreme Court decision and has not accrued or paid any sales or use tax for those periods.  In February 2012, the Nevada Department of Taxation asserted that customer complimentary meals and employee meals are subject to sales tax on a prospective basis commencing February 15, 2012.  In July 2012, the Nevada Department of Taxation announced that sales taxes applicable to such meals are due and payable without penalty or interest at the earlier of certain regulatory, judicial or legislative events or June 30, 2013.  The Nevada Department of Taxation position stems from a Nevada Tax Commission decision concerning another gaming company which states that complimentary meals provided to customers are subject to sales tax at the retail value of the meal and employee meals are subject to sales tax at the cost of the meal. The other gaming company filed in Clark County District Court a petition for judicial review of the Nevada Tax Commission decision. The Company disagrees with the Nevada Department of Taxation assertions.  Based on an analysis of the facts and circumstances as of the date of these financial statements, the Company does not believe it is probable it will incur a liability with respect to such assertions.  Any reasonably possible range of loss would not be material to the Company’s financial statements as of June 30, 2012.

 

Other guarantees.  The Company is party to various guarantee contracts in the normal course of business, which are generally supported by letters of credit issued by financial institutions.  The Company’s senior credit facility limits the amount of letters of credit that can be issued to $250 million, and the amount of available borrowings under the senior credit facility is reduced by any outstanding letters of credit.  At June 30, 2012, the Company had provided $37 million of total letters of credit.  In addition, MGM China guarantees approximately $39 million of debt under the MGM Grand Paradise credit facility.

 

Other litigation.  The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings, most of which relate to routine matters incidental to its business.  Management does not believe that the outcome of such other proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company’s management views each of its casino resorts as an operating segment.  Operating segments are aggregated based on their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, types of services and products provided, the regulatory environments in which they operate, and their management and reporting structure.  The Company’s principal operating activities occur in two geographic regions: the United States and Macau S.A.R.  The Company has aggregated its operations into two reportable segments based on the similar characteristics of the operating segments within the regions in which they operate: wholly owned domestic resorts and MGM China. The Company’s operations related to investments in unconsolidated affiliates, MGM Hospitality, and certain other corporate and management operations have not been identified as separate reportable segments; therefore, these operations are included in “corporate and other” in the following segment disclosures to reconcile to consolidated results.

 

The Company’s management utilizes Adjusted Property EBITDA as the primary profit measure for its reportable segments. Adjusted Property EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as Adjusted EBITDA before corporate expense and stock compensation expense related to the MGM Resorts stock option plan, which are not allocated to the reportable segments. MGM China recognizes stock compensation expense related to its stock compensation plan which is included in the calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA for MGM China. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest and other non-operating income (expense), taxes, depreciation and amortization, preopening and start-up expenses, property transactions, net and the gain on the MGM China transaction.

NOTE 12 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

MGM China.  In connection with the MGM China IPO, MGM Branding and Development Holdings, Ltd., (together with its subsidiary MGM Development Services, Ltd. “MGM Branding and Development”), an entity included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in which Ms. Pansy Ho indirectly holds a noncontrolling interest, entered into a brand license agreement with MGM China.  MGM China pays a license fee to MGM Branding and Development equal to 1.75% of MGM China’s consolidated net revenue, subject to an annual cap of $30 million in 2012, increasing by 20% per annum for each subsequent calendar year during the term of the agreement. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 total license fees of $12 million and $25 million, respectively, were incurred by MGM China. Such amounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

MGM China also entered into a development services agreement with MGM Branding and Development to provide certain development services to MGM China in connection with future expansion of existing projects and development of future resort gaming projects. Such services are subject to a development fee which is calculated separately for each resort casino property upon commencement of development. For each such property, the fee is 2.625% of project costs, to be paid in installments as certain benchmarks are achieved. Project costs are the total costs incurred for the design, development and construction of the casino, casino hotel, integrated resort and other related sites associated with each project, including costs of construction, fixtures and fittings, signage, gaming and other supplies and equipment and all costs associated with the opening of the business to be conducted at each project but excluding the cost of land and gaming concessions and financing costs. The development fee is subject to an annual cap of $20 million per annum for the initial financial year for each property, which amount shall increase by 10% per annum for each succeeding financial year during the term of the agreement. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, MGM China incurred $6 million of fees to MGM Branding and Development related to development services. Such amount is eliminated in consolidation.
