FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Melco Announces Share Repurchase Program
Macau, Monday, June 3, 2024 - Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited (Nasdaq: MLCO) (“Melco” or the “Company”), a developer, owner and operator of integrated resort facilities in Asia and Europe, today announces that its board of directors has approved a new US$500 million share repurchase program.
The new program is effective immediately and replaces the three-year share repurchase program that was announced in June 2021 and which has expired. The new program permits the Company to purchase up to US$500 million of its ordinary shares and/or American depositary shares over a three-year period commencing from June 2, 2024. Purchases under this authorization may be made from time to time on the open market at prevailing market prices, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b-18 and/or Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act, and/or in privately-negotiated transactions. The timing of the purchases and the amount of shares and/or ADSs purchased will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions, trading prices, applicable securities laws and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or terminated at any time, and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amounts under the program.
