Melco Crown Entertainment Announces Third Quarter 2010 Earnings


NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Melco Crown Entertainment Limited (Nasdaq:MPEL), a developer and owner of casino gaming and entertainment resort facilities focused on the Macau market, today reported its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010.

Net revenue for the third quarter of 2010 was US$727.0 million, representing an increase of approximately 45% from US$500.3 million reported in the quarter ended September 30, 2009. Adjusted EBITDA(1) was US$136.3 million for the third quarter of 2010, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of US$55.6 million in the third quarter of 2009. The year-over-year improvement in net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA resulted primarily from a broad-based improvement in operating performance at City of Dreams.

On a U.S. GAAP basis, Melco Crown Entertainment recorded net income for the third quarter of 2010 of US$15.8 million, or US$0.03 per ADS, compared with a net loss of US$39.5 million, or a loss of US$0.08 per ADS, in the third quarter of 2009. The improvement in bottom line results was driven by a significant year-over-year improvement in the operating performance at City of Dreams, partially offset by increased depreciation and amortization expense associated with the opening of the Grand Hyatt and The House of Dancing Water at City of Dreams and higher net interest expense related to the refinancing of approximately US$600 million of bank debt through the issuance of a high yield bond in May 2010.

Lawrence Ho, Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Melco Crown Entertainment, commented, "We are pleased to report record net revenue and record Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter of 2010. These milestones are driven by continued progress in expanding our mass market gaming volumes and by further success in our already robust VIP business, along with a favorable rolling chip hold percentage in the third quarter of 2010. 

"We opened The House of Dancing Water in September and it has been well received by the market and our guests. This is one of several new amenities that we plan to introduce into City of Dreams over the coming months, including Cubic nightclub and Hard Rock Cafe. We believe that these amenities, against a backdrop of solid market growth, will continue to drive improving gaming volumes at City of Dreams.

"Though our new operating management structure has only been in place for approximately two months, we are encouraged by its initial impact on our business and are already seeing tangible results from its implementation. The focus of our management team continues to be on maximizing returns on our portfolio of assets in Macau."

City of Dreams 3Q Results

For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, net revenue at City of Dreams was US$504.0 million compared to US$287.7 million in the third quarter of 2009. City of Dreams generated Adjusted EBITDA of US$114.9 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared to US$46.6 million in the third quarter of 2009. The year-over-year improvements in both net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA were driven by increased rolling chip volume, an improved mass market win rate, and higher mass market table games drop in the third quarter of 2010, as compared with the same measures in the third quarter of 2009.

Rolling chip volume totaled US$14.4 billion for the third quarter of 2010, up 59% from US$9.0 billion in the third quarter of 2009, and the rolling chip hold percentage was 3.4% in the third quarter of 2010 versus 3.3% in the third quarter of 2009. The expected rolling chip hold percentage range is 2.7%-3.0%.

Mass market (non rolling chip) table games drop increased 35% to US$523.7 million compared with US$389.6 million in the third quarter of 2009. The mass market win rate was 21.3% in the quarter under review and increased from 15.3% in the same period last year. At City of Dreams, we expect our mass market table games hold percentage to range from 20%-22%.

Slot handle for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was US$437.3 million, up 54% from US$284.5 million generated in the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Total non-gaming revenue at City of Dreams in the third quarter of 2010 was US$31.7 million, up from US$18.0 million in the third quarter of 2009. Occupancy per available room in the third quarter of 2010 was 77% versus 92% in the third quarter of 2009. The average daily rate (ADR) in the third quarter of 2010 was US$158 per occupied room, which compares with US$166 in the third quarter of 2009.

Altira Macau 3Q Results

For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, net revenue at Altira Macau was US$186.8 million versus US$182.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2009. Altira Macau generated Adjusted EBITDA of US$28.8 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared with Adjusted EBITDA of US$13.9 million in the third quarter of 2009.

Rolling chip volume totaled US$9.5 billion in the third quarter of 2010 versus US$9.8 billion in the third quarter of 2009. In the third quarter of 2010, the rolling chip hold percentage was 2.7%, which is essentially unchanged from that in the comparable quarter last year. The rolling chip hold percentage in both periods was at the low end of the 2.7%-3.0% expected range.

In the mass market (non rolling chip) table games segment, drop totaled US$97.0 million in the third quarter of 2010, up 72% from US$56.4 million generated in the comparable period in 2009. The mass market win rate was 17.6% in the third quarter of 2010 compared with 18.6% in the third quarter of last year. At Altira Macau, we expect our mass market table games hold percentage to range from 15%-17%.

Total non-gaming revenue at Altira Macau in the third quarter of 2010 was US$7.1 million, down from US$7.9 million in the third quarter of 2009. Occupancy per available room in the third quarter of 2010 was 95% and the ADR was US$161 per occupied room. This compares with occupancy and ADR of 93% and US$215, respectively, in the third quarter of 2009.

Mocha Clubs 3Q Results

Net revenue from Mocha Clubs totaled US$27.8 million in the third quarter of 2010, up from US$24.4 million in the third quarter of 2009. 

Mocha Clubs generated US$7.6 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2010, which compares with US$6.3 million in the third quarter of 2009.

The number of gaming machines in operation at the Mocha Clubs averaged approximately 1,600 in the third quarter of 2010, unchanged from that in the third quarter of 2009. The net win per gaming machine per day was US$189 in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, as compared with US$168 in the same period in 2009.

Other Factors Affecting Earnings

Total non-operating expense for the third quarter of 2010 was US$30.1 million, which included US$28.3 million in net interest expense and other finance costs of US$3.8 million. Capitalized interest during the third quarter of 2010 totaled US$3.6 million.

Depreciation and amortization costs of US$58.9 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2010, of which US$14.3 million was related to the amortization of our gaming sub-concession and US$4.9 million was related to the amortization of land use rights. The year-over-year increase in depreciation and amortization costs is primarily related to the opening of the Grand Hyatt in September 2009 and the opening of The House of Dancing Water in the third quarter of 2010.

Financial Position and Capital Expenditure

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2010 totaled US$659.9 million, including US$164.6 million of restricted cash. Total debt at the end of the third quarter of 2010 was US$1.9 billion, and total net debt to shareholders' equity as of September 30, 2010 was 51%.

Capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2010 were US$20.9 million, primarily attributable to City of Dreams.

Nine Month Results

For the nine months ending September 30, 2010, Melco Crown Entertainment reported net revenue of US$1.9 billion versus US$932.7 million in the nine months ending September 30, 2009.  Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of 2010 was US$296.6 million, as compared with Adjusted EBITDA of US$53.1 million in the first nine months of 2009. 

The year-over-year improvement in net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA were primarily attributable to significantly improved operating results at both City of Dreams and Altira Macau, as well as from the opening of City of Dreams in June of 2009 and its contribution to results for the entire nine months of 2010.

Melco Crown Entertainment reported a net loss of US$26.8 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to a net loss of US$218.8 million for the first nine months of 2009. The net loss per ADS for the nine month period ending September 30, 2010 was US$0.05 compared to a net loss per ADS of US$0.46 for the same period in 2009.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(1) "Adjusted EBITDA" is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, share-based compensation costs, and other non-operating income and expenses. "Adjusted property EBITDA" is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, share-based compensation costs, corporate and other expenses and other non-operating income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA are presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that they are widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Management uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA as measures of the operating performance of its segments and to compare the operating performance of its properties with those of its competitors. The Company also presents adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA because they are used by some investors as ways to measure a company's ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures, and meet working capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA as supplements to financial measures in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to operating income as indicators of the Company's performance, as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity, or as alternatives to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Unlike net income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA do not include depreciation and amortization or interest expense and therefore do not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. The Company compensates for these limitations by using adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA as only two of several comparative tools, together with GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such GAAP measurements include operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from operations and cash flow data. The Company has significant uses of cash flows, including capital expenditures, interest payments, debt principal repayments, taxes and other non-recurring charges, which are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA or adjusted property EBITDA. Also, the Company's calculation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted property EBITDA with the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided herein immediately following the financial statements included in this press release.

(2) "Adjusted net (loss) income" is net (loss) income before pre-opening costs, property charges and other. Adjusted net (loss) income and adjusted net (loss) income per share ("EPS") are presented as supplemental disclosures because management believes that they are widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. These measures are used by management and/or evaluated by some investors, in addition to income and EPS computed in accordance with GAAP, as an additional basis for assessing period-to-period results of our business. Adjusted net (loss) income may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Reconciliations of adjusted net (loss) income with the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided herein immediately following the financial statements included in this press release.
