LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 12, 2013--
Erroneous reports by several news organizations, including Anna Prior of
the Wall Street Journal, mentioned a Department of Justice investigation
noted in the Company’s 10-Q released today. Those reports fail to
mention that no new information was released on the matter in Tuesday’s
10-Q and is identical to the disclosure the Company made in May 2013 and
August 2013. The disclosure is consistent with standard reporting
practices.
When the US Department of Justice publicly filed its 35-page motion in
April 2013 to intervene in the Okada case, the motion included a
one-sentence footnote mentioning that the DOJ was conducting an
investigation into the Company’s donation to the University of Macau.
Wynn Resorts has never received a target letter or subpoena with such an
investigation. Furthermore, the Securities and Exchange Commission
disclosed in July 2013 that it would not recommend any enforcement
action in the matter.
