We operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry, and have a highly leveraged business model. Moreover, we operate in Macau’s gaming sector, a market with intense competition, and therefore new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) the global pandemic of COVID-19, caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus, and the continued impact of its consequences on our business, our industry and the global economy, (ii) growth of the gaming market and visitations in Macau, (iii) capital and credit market volatility, (iv) local and global economic conditions, (v) our anticipated growth strategies, (vi) gaming authority and other governmental approvals and regulations, and (vii) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “aim,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions.
The forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this quarterly report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Table of Contents
The majority of our current revenues are denominated in H.K. dollars, while our current expenses are denominated predominantly in Patacas and H.K. dollars, and in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, in U.S. dollars. The non-financial pages of this quarterly report include all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars at a rate of HK$7.7760 to US$1.00, unless otherwise noted.
The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since October 17, 1983, the H.K. dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of HK$7.80 to US$1.00. The market exchange rate has not deviated materially from the level of HK$7.80 to US$1.00 since the peg was first established. However, in May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority broadened the trading band from the original rate of HK$7.80 per U.S. dollar to a rate range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the link at that rate, and, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.
The noon buying rate on March 31, 2021 in New York City for cable transfers in H.K. dollars for U.S. dollars, provided in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was HK$7.7746 to US$1.00. On May 21, 2021, the noon buying rate was HK$7.7640 to US$1.00. We make no representation that any H.K. dollar or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or H.K. dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.
The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 = MOP1.03. All translations from Pataca to U.S. dollar in the non-financial pages of this quarterly report were made at the exchange rate of MOP8.0093 = US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Pataca.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in connection with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected in the future. Certain statements in this “Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements.
Summary of Financial Results
For the first quarter of 2021, our total operating revenues were US$0.47 billion, a decrease of 34.9% from US$0.72 billion of total operating revenues for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in the total operating revenues was primarily attributable to softer performance in the rolling chip segment at City of Dreams and Altira Macau, as well as decreased casino revenues generated from the operations of Studio City Casino by our subsidiary, Melco Resorts Macau, the gaming subconcessionaire. Such decreases resulted from a year-over-year decline in inbound tourism in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, which was only partially impacted by the restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic. Net income/loss from Studio City Casino gaming operations are reimbursed to/from Studio City Entertainment pursuant to the Services and Right to Use Arrangements. Such reimbursement is included in general and administrative expenses.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was US$144.1 million, compared to net loss of US$168.4 million for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to lower net foreign exchange losses in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by the softer performance at City of Dreams and Altira Macau mentioned above and higher interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized.
The following summarizes the results of our operations:

For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the total operating revenues at City of Dreams were US$321.8 million, compared to US$497.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in the total operating revenues was primarily a result of softer performance in the rolling chip segment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have relied and intend to rely on cash generated from our operations and debt and equity financings to meet our financing needs and repay our indebtedness, as the case may be. We expect to have significant capital expenditures in the future as we continue to develop our properties. Any other future developments may be subject to further financing and a number of other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
As of March 31, 2021, we held cash and cash equivalents of US$772.0 million and restricted cash of US$0.3 million. Further, HK$14.85 billion (equivalent to US$1.91 billion) of the revolving credit facility under the 2020 Credit Facilities and HK$1.0 million (equivalent to US$0.1 million) of the revolving credit facility under the 2015 Credit Facilities were available for future drawdown, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.

Operating Activities
Operating cash flows are generally affected by changes in operating income and accounts receivable related to VIP table games play and hotel operations conducted on a cash and credit basis and the remainder of the business, including mass market table games play, gaming machine play, food and beverage, and entertainment that are conducted primarily on a cash basis.
Net cash used in operating activities was US$94.7 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to net cash used in operating activities of US$317.5 million. The change was primarily due to decreased working capital needed for operations.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was US$31.2 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to US$45.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. The change was primarily due to lower payments for acquisition of property and equipment.
Net cash used in investing activities of US$31.2 million for the first quarter of 2021 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$31.5 million.
Net cash used in investing activities of US$45.9 million for the first quarter of 2020 mainly included payments for acquisition of property and equipment of US$45.9 million.

Table of Contents
Our total payments for acquisition of property and equipment for the first quarter of 2021 were US$31.5 million, compared to US$45.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. Such expenditures for both periods were mainly associated with our development projects as well as enhancement to our integrated resort offerings.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$6.4 million for the first quarter of 2021, which primarily represented the proceeds from the issuance of the Additional 2029 Senior Notes of US$258.1 million, which priced at 103.250% of the principal amount, partially offset by the repayment of the outstanding revolving credit facility under the 2020 Credit Facilities of US$249.9 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$256.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, which primarily represented the proceeds from the drawdown of the revolving credit facility under the 2015 Credit Facilities of US$251.5 million.

Recent Developments
The COVID-19 outbreak continues to have a material effect on our operations, financial position, and prospects during the second quarter of 2021.
Despite the nationwide resumption of issuance of Individual Visit Scheme visas by China in September 2020, our operations continue to be impacted by significant travel bans, restrictions, and quarantine requirements imposed by the governments in Macau, Hong Kong and China, and such bans, restrictions and requirements have been, and may continue to be, modified by the relevant authorities from time to time as COVID-19 developments unfold. Additionally, health-related precautionary measures remain in place at our properties, which continue to impact visitation and customer spending.
As the disruptions from the COVID-19 outbreak are ongoing, any recovery from such disruptions will depend on future events, such as the successful production, distribution and widespread acceptance of safe and effective vaccines, the development of effective treatments for COVID-19, including for new strains of COVID-19, the duration of travel and visa restrictions as well as customer sentiment and behavior, including the length of time before customers resume traveling and participating in entertainment and leisure activities at high-density venues and the impact of potential higher unemployment rates, declines in income levels and loss of personal wealth resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak on consumer behavior related to discretionary spending and traveling, all of which are highly uncertain.
