NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Wynn Las Vegas, LLC was formed on April 17, 2001 as a Nevada limited liability company. Originally named Hotel A, LLC, its name was changed to Wynn Las Vegas, LLC on May 15, 2002. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the “Company” refer to Wynn Las Vegas, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including for periods when the Company was named Hotel A, LLC. The sole member of the Company is Wynn Resorts Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”). The sole member of Holdings is Wynn Resorts, Limited (“Wynn Resorts”). The Company was organized primarily to construct and operate “Wynn Las Vegas,” a destination resort and casino on the site of the former Desert Inn Resort and Casino on “the Strip” in Las Vegas, Nevada. Wynn Las Vegas opened to the public on April 28, 2005. In addition, the Company is constructing “Encore at Wynn Las Vegas” or “Encore.” Encore will be fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas and is being constructed on 20 acres of land immediately adjacent to Wynn Las Vegas. Encore is expected to open to the public in early 2009.

Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. (“Wynn Capital”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated on June 3, 2002, solely for the purpose of obtaining financing for Wynn Las Vegas. Wynn Capital is authorized to issue 2,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01. As of June 30, 2007, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC owned the one share that was issued and outstanding. Wynn Capital has neither any significant net assets nor has had any operating activity. Its sole function is to serve as the co-issuer of the mortgage notes described below. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Capital together are hereinafter referred to as the “Issuers”.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company’s investment in the 50%-owned joint venture operating the Ferrari and Maserati automobile dealership inside Wynn Las Vegas is accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been made. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounts receivable and credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of casino accounts receivable. The Company issues credit in the form of “markers” to approved

casino customers following investigations of creditworthiness. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, approximately 50% and 55%, respectively, of the Company’s markers were due from customers residing in foreign countries, primarily in Asia. Business or economic conditions or other significant events in these countries could affect the collectibility of such receivables.

Accounts receivable, including casino and hotel receivables, are typically non-interest bearing and are initially recorded at cost. Accounts are written off when management deems them to be uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recorded when received. An estimated allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to reduce the Company’s receivables to their carrying amount, which approximates fair value. The allowance is estimated based on specific review of customer accounts as well as management’s experience with collection trends in the casino industry and current economic and business conditions.

Inventories

Inventories consist of retail, food and beverage items, which are stated at the lower of cost or market value, and certain operating supplies. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out, average and specific identification methods.

Revenue recognition and promotional allowances

Casino revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses, with liabilities recognized for funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs and for chips in the customers’ possession. Hotel, food and beverage, entertainment and other operating revenues are recognized when services are performed. Advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales are recorded as deferred revenues until services are provided to the customer.

Revenues are recognized net of certain sales incentives in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) consensus on Issue 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products)”. EITF 01-9 requires that sales incentives be recorded as a reduction of revenue; consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and points earned in customer loyalty programs, such as the players’ club loyalty program.

The retail value of accommodations, food and beverage, and other services furnished to guests without charge is included in gross revenue and then deducted as promotional allowances. The estimated cost of providing such promotional allowances for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is primarily included in casino expenses as follows (amounts in thousands):

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs incurred in development periods are included in pre-opening costs. Once a project is completed, advertising costs are included in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, advertising costs totaled approximately $4.8 million and $5.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, advertising costs totaled approximately $11.3 million and $10.8 million, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for 2006 have been reclassified to be consistent with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net loss.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The interpretation provides guidance on classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and translation. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Since the Company is a pass-through entity for tax purposes, the adoption of this statement, effective January 1, 2007, did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the impact this statement will have on its consolidated financial statements after it is adopted on January 1, 2008.

In June 2006, the FASB ratified the consensus reached on EITF Issue No. 06-03, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (that is, Gross Versus Net Presentation)”. The EITF reached a consensus that the presentation of taxes on either a gross or net basis is an accounting policy decision that requires disclosure. EITF Issue No. 06-03 is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has historically and will continue to record taxes collected from customers on a net basis. Accordingly, the adoption of EITF Issue No. 06-03 did not have an effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

3. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

Interest paid for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 totaled approximately $53.6 million and $59.7 million, respectively. Interest capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 totaled approximately $10.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Stock-based compensation related to employees dedicated to the construction of Wynn Las Vegas and Encore that was capitalized into construction in progress for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 totaled approximately $379,000 and $1 million, respectively.

Interest accrues at 7.5% per annum. Unpaid principal and interest is due at maturity on August 15, 2012.

As of December 31, 2006, the Company’s net due to affiliates was primarily comprised of construction payables of approximately $20 million, construction retention of approximately $9 million, a management fee of approximately $27.9 million (equal to 1.5% of revenues and payable upon meeting certain leverage ratios as specified in the documents governing the Company’s Credit Facilities), and other net amounts payable to affiliates totaling $7.8 million (including corporate allocations discussed below).

The Company periodically settles amounts due to affiliates with cash receipts and payments, except for the management fee, which is payable upon meeting certain leverage ratios specified in the documents governing the Company’s Credit Facilities.

Corporate Allocations

The accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations include allocations from Wynn Resorts for legal, accounting, human resource, information services, real estate, and other corporate support services. The corporate support service allocations have been determined on a basis that Wynn Resorts and the Company consider to be a reasonable estimate of the utilization of services provided or the benefit received by the Company. The allocation methods include specific identification, relative cost, square footage and headcount. Wynn Resorts maintains corporate offices at Wynn Las Vegas without charge from the Company. The Company settles these corporate allocation charges with Wynn Resorts on a periodic basis as discussed in “Amounts Due to Affiliates, Net” above.

amounts on deposit with Wynn Resorts to prepay any such items, which are replenished on an ongoing basis as needed. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, Wynn Resorts owed Mr. Wynn and the other officers approximately $350,000 and $315,000, respectively.

Villa Suite Lease

Effective July 1, 2005, Mr. Wynn and his wife, Elaine P. Wynn (“Mrs. Wynn”), who is also a director of Wynn Resorts, lease from year to year a villa suite in the Wynn Las Vegas resort as their personal residence. Rent is determined by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts (the “Audit Committee”), and is based on the fair market value of the use of the suite accommodations. Based on third-party appraisals, the Audit Committee determined the rent for each year in the three-year period commencing July 1, 2005 and ending June 30, 2008 to be $580,000. Substantially all services for, and maintenance of, the suite are included in the rental.

The Wynn Collection

From the opening of Wynn Las Vegas through February 2006, the resort included an art gallery that displayed rare paintings from a private collection of fine art owned by Mr. and Mrs. Wynn. The Company leased the artwork from Mr. and Mrs. Wynn for an annual fee of one dollar ($1), and the Company was entitled to retain all revenues from the public display of the artwork and the related merchandising revenues. The Company was responsible for all expenses incurred in exhibiting and safeguarding the artwork, including the cost of insurance (including terrorism insurance) and taxes relating to the rental of the art. In February 2006, the Company closed the art gallery and began converting the gallery location into additional retail stores. The Company continues to lease works of art from Mr. and Mrs. Wynn for an annual fee of one dollar ($1) and continues to display certain pieces throughout Wynn Las Vegas. All expenses in exhibiting and safeguarding the artwork displayed at Wynn Las Vegas are the responsibility of the Company.

The “Wynn” Surname Rights Agreement

On August 6, 2004, Holdings entered into agreements with Mr. Wynn that confirm and clarify Holding’s rights to use the “Wynn” name and Mr. Wynn’s persona in connection with casino resorts. Under the parties’ Surname Rights Agreement, Mr. Wynn granted Holdings an exclusive, fully paid-up, perpetual, worldwide license to use, and to own and register trademarks and service marks incorporating the “Wynn” name for casino resorts and related businesses, together with the right to sublicense the name and marks to its affiliates. Under the parties’ Rights of Publicity License, Mr. Wynn granted Holdings the exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide right to use his full name, persona and related rights of publicity for casino resorts and related businesses, together with the ability to sublicense the persona and publicity rights to its affiliates, until October 24, 2017. Holdings has sub-licensed rights to the “Wynn” name, persona and marks to the Company.

Koval property, an associated pedestrian bridge and costs incurred in connection with the theatre remodeling and production of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” at Wynn Las Vegas. The project is being funded from the Company’s existing Credit Facilities and operating cash flow from Wynn Las Vegas. To the extent additional funds are required, the Company will provide these amounts with additional debt and equity contributions by Wynn Resorts or additional indebtedness to be incurred by Wynn Las Vegas.

On February 27, 2007, the Company entered into a Design Build Architectural, Engineering and Construction Services Agreement (the “Contract”) with Tutor-Saliba Corporation (“Tutor”) for the design and construction of Encore. The Contract sets forth all of the terms and conditions pursuant to which Tutor will design and construct Encore. In June 2007, the Company executed the First Amendment to the Contract which set the guaranteed maximum price for construction work covered by the Contract at $1.3 billion. In connection with the execution and delivery of the Contract, Tutor and the Ronald N. Tutor Separate Trust (the “Trust”) have entered into and consented to a Net Worth Agreement pursuant to which (x) the Trust agreed that it will retain its current majority holdings of Tutor and (y) the Trust and Tutor agreed that during the term of the Contract, Tutor will maintain (i) net worth of at least $100 million, and (ii) liquid assets of at least $50 million. Through June 30, the Company incurred approximately $567 million of project costs related to the development and construction of Encore and related capital improvements.

Completion Guarantee and Liquidity Reserve. As part of the Wynn Las Vegas financing, the Company contributed $50 million of the net proceeds of the initial public offering of Wynn Resorts’ common stock to Wynn Completion Guarantor, LLC, a special purpose subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC formed in October 2002 and deposited those funds into a completion guarantee deposit account to secure completion of Wynn Las Vegas. As referenced in Note 6, in April 2007, all amounts in excess of $30 million were released as a result of the April 2007 amendment to the Credit Facilities. The remaining $30 million will be retained as Encore’s completion guarantee.

The Company also deposited $30 million from the net proceeds of the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock into a liquidity reserve account to secure the completion and opening of Wynn Las Vegas. All funds in this account were released as a result of the April 2007 amendment to the Credit Facilities. These released funds are expected to be applied to construction costs to be incurred in connection with Encore.

Litigation

The Company does not have any material litigation as of June 30, 2007.

Overview

We are a developer, owner and operator of destination casino resorts. We currently own and operate Wynn Las Vegas, a destination casino resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, which opened on April 28, 2005. In addition, on April 28, 2006, we commenced construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas (“Encore”), a hotel casino resort which, when completed, will be fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas. Until the opening of Wynn Las Vegas in 2005, we were solely a development stage company.

Wynn Las Vegas

We believe Wynn Las Vegas is the preeminent destination casino resort on the Strip in Las Vegas. Wynn Las Vegas features:

 

   

An approximately 111,000 square foot casino offering 24-hour gaming and a full range of games, including private baccarat salons, a poker room, and a race and sports book;

 

   

Luxury hotel accommodations in 2,716 spacious hotel rooms, suites and villas (In 2006, the Tower Suites at Wynn Las Vegas became the only casino resort in the world to receive both the Mobil Five Star and AAA Five Diamond distinctions);

 

   

22 food and beverage outlets featuring signature chefs, including the AAA Five Diamond and Mobil Five Star award-winning restaurant, Alex;

 

   

A Ferrari and Maserati automobile dealership;

 

   

Approximately 74,000 square feet of high-end, brand-name retail shopping, including stores and boutiques featuring Brioni, Chanel, Dior, Graff, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton, and Manolo Blahnik;

 

   

Recreation and leisure facilities, including an 18-hole golf course, five swimming pools, private cabanas and full service spa and salon; and

 

   

Two showrooms, a nightclub and lounge entertainment.

In March 2007, we remodeled the Le Rêve Theatre to enhance the customer experience. The theatre went from 2,087 to 1,606 seats providing additional room for guests and a more intimate experience. The remodel effort lasted approximately 30 days from March 6, 2007 through April 4, 2007, during which time there were no performances of Le Rêve. Also, in March 2007, we commenced performances of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” in our Grail Theatre.

The resort, which is located at the intersection of the Las Vegas Strip and Sands Avenue, occupies approximately 217 acres of land fronting the Las Vegas Strip and approximately 18 additional acres across Sands Avenue, a portion of which is utilized for employee parking.

Encore at Wynn Las Vegas

We are constructing Encore on approximately 20 acres on the Las Vegas Strip, immediately adjacent to Wynn Las Vegas. Encore’s current plans include a 2,034 all-suite hotel tower fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas, an approximately 72,000 square foot casino, additional convention and meeting space, as well as restaurants, a nightclub, swimming pools, a spa and salon and retail outlets. We continue to refine the final design of Encore. Encore is expected to open in early 2009. Our project budget is currently estimated at

approximately $2.2 billion, consisting of approximately $2.1 billion for Encore and approximately $100 million for an employee parking garage on our Koval property, an associated pedestrian bridge and costs incurred in connection with the theatre remodeling and production of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” at Wynn Las Vegas, which opened in March 2007.

Results of Operations

We offer gaming, hotel accommodations, dining, entertainment, retail shopping, convention services and other amenities at Wynn Las Vegas. We currently rely solely upon the operations of Wynn Las Vegas for our operating cash flow. Concentration of our cash flow in one property exposes us to certain risks that competitors, whose operations are more diversified, may be better able to control. In addition to the concentration of operations in a single property, many of our customers are high-end gaming customers who wager on credit, thus exposing us to increased credit risk. High-end gaming also increases the potential for variability in our results.

We recorded net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 of $45.4 million and $82.9 million, respectively, which represents a $45.9 million increase and an $83.9 million increase, respectively, from the net losses incurred during the three and six month periods of 2006. These increases are due to a significant increase in revenues and operating income primarily related to our casino operations.

Certain key operating statistics specific to the gaming industry are included in our discussions of the Company’s operational performance for the periods in which a condensed consolidated statement of operations is presented. Below are definitions of the statistics discussed:

 

   

Table games win is the amount of drop that is retained and recorded as casino revenue.

 

   

Drop is the amount of cash or net markers issued that are deposited in a gaming table’s drop box.

 

   

Slot win is the amount of handle (representing the total amount wagered) that is retained and is recorded as casino revenue.

 

   

Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) is calculated by dividing total room revenue by total rooms occupied.

 

   

Revenue per Available Room (“REVPAR”) is calculated by dividing total room revenue by total rooms available.

Financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006.

Revenues

Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 are comprised of $159.4 million in casino revenues (47.6% of total net revenues) and $175.8 million of net non-casino revenues (52.4% of total net revenues). Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were comprised of $113.5 million in casino revenues (41.5% of total net revenues) and $160.1 million of net non-casino revenues (58.5% of total net revenues). We believe the quality of our resort’s non-casino amenities, combined with providing guests an unparalleled total resort experience, has driven a premium in ADR and other non-gaming revenues as well as increased the length of casino play.

Casino revenues are comprised of the net win from our table games and slot machine operations. Casino revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of approximately $159.4 million represent approximately a $45.9 million (or 40.4%) increase from casino revenues of $113.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, we experienced a 20.5% increase in drop and the average table games win percentage (before discounts) of 24.2% was slightly above the expected range of 21% to 24%. Table games win percentage was 19.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Slot handle at Wynn Las Vegas increased 7.6% during the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to 2006, and the slot win percentage was within the expected range of 4.5% to 5.5%.

Table of Contents

For the three months ended June 30, 2007, room revenues were approximately $74.4 million, which represents a $5.2 million (or 7.6%) increase over the $69.2 million generated in the three months ended June 30, 2006. This increase is due to an increase in both occupancy and average daily rate as compared to the prior year. See the table below for key operating measures related to room revenue.

 

     Three Months Ended
June 30,
 
       2007         2006    

Average Daily Rate

   $ 311     $ 293  

Occupancy

     97.0 %     95.7 %

REVPAR

   $ 301     $ 280  

Other non-casino revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007 include: food and beverage revenues of approximately $82.1 million, retail revenues of approximately $22.9 million, entertainment revenues of approximately $18.7 million, and other revenues from outlets, including the spa and salon, of approximately $13 million. Other non-gaming revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006 included food and beverage revenues of approximately $77.7 million, retail revenues of approximately $19.3 million, entertainment revenues of approximately $17.1 million, and other revenues from outlets, including the spa and salon, of approximately $13.2 million.

Departmental, Administrative and Other Expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2007, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $65.1 million, rooms expenses of $19.2 million, food and beverage expenses of $50.4 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $37 million. Also included are general and administrative expenses of approximately $49.6 million and approximately $7.6 million charged as a provision for doubtful accounts receivable. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $57.9 million, room expenses of $18.1 million, food and beverage expenses of $49.4 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $34.1 million. Also included are general and administrative expenses of approximately $44.2 million and approximately $3.7 million charged as a provision for doubtful accounts receivable. The increase in expenses is commensurate with the increase in revenues.

Management fees

Since opening Wynn Las Vegas, management fees payable to Wynn Resorts for certain corporate management services have been charged and accrued at a rate equal to 1.5% of revenues. These fees will be paid upon meeting certain leverage ratios and satisfying certain other criteria set forth in our Credit Facilities. Management fees accrued for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 were $5 million, compared to $4.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.

Pre-opening costs

Pre-opening costs for the three months ended June 30, 2007 were $818,000 compared to $176,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Pre-opening costs for the three months ended June 30, 2007 were incurred with the development of Encore. As Encore progresses, pre-opening costs related to this project will increase as opening approaches in 2009.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $36.5 million decreased by $1.1 million when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to the absence of accelerated amortization that was recorded in 2006 related to the termination of Avenue Q.

Table of Contents

Property charges and other

Property charges and other for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $597,000 compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006. In response to our evaluation of Wynn Las Vegas and the reactions of our guests, we continue to make enhancements to the property. The costs relating to assets retired as a result of these enhancement and remodel efforts are expensed as property charges.

Other non-operating costs and expenses

Interest income decreased by $2.6 million to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease is primarily due to reduced average restricted cash balances during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year’s quarter as a result of spending related to the development and construction of Encore.

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest of $6.2 million, was $22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $30.8 million, net of capitalized interest of $1.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease is due to lower average debt balances and lower interest rates as a result of the August 2006 bank refinancing and increased capitalized interest of $5.1 million due to the continuing construction costs of Encore. Capitalized interest continues to increase with the ongoing borrowings and construction costs related to Encore.

Our interest rate swaps are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended. The fair value of our interest rate swap is recorded as either an asset or liability. Changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps are recorded as an increase (or decrease) to the swap fair value in each period. We recorded a gain of approximately $411,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 resulting from the increase in the fair value of our interest rate swap from March 31, 2007 to June 30, 2007. During the three months ended June 30, 2006 we recorded a gain of $2 million resulting from the increase in the fair value of interest rate swap between March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006. For further information on our interest rate swaps, see Item 3 – “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”.

Financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Revenues

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 are comprised of $332.5 million in casino revenues (49.9% of total net revenues) and $333.6 million of net non-casino revenues (50.1% of total net revenues). Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were comprised of $240.0 million in casino revenues (43.6% of total net revenues) and $310.9 million of net non-casino revenues (56.4% of total net revenues). We believe the quality of our resort’s non-casino amenities, combined with providing guests an unparalleled total resort experience, has driven a premium in ADR and other non-gaming revenues as well as increased the length of casino play.

Casino revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of approximately $332.5 million represent approximately a $92.4 million (or 38.5%) increase from casino revenues of $240 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we experienced a 16.3% increase in drop and an increase in the average table games win percentage compared to the first half of the prior year. The average table games win percentage (before discounts) of 25.9% was above the expected range of 21% to 24% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, our average table games win percentage (before discounts) was 19.8%. Slot handle at Wynn Las Vegas increased 4.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to June 30, 2006, and the slot win percentage was within the expected range of 4.5% to 5.5%.

The increase in expenses is commensurate with the increase in revenues.

Management fees

Since opening Wynn Las Vegas, management fees payable to Wynn Resorts for certain corporate management services have been charged and accrued at a rate equal to 1.5% of revenues. These fees will be paid upon meeting certain leverage ratios and satisfying certain other criteria set forth in our Credit Facilities. Management fees accrued for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $10 million, compared to $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Pre-opening costs

Pre-opening costs for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $2.4 million compared to $194,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Pre-opening costs for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were incurred with the opening of the new show “Monty Python’s Spamalot” and the development of Encore. As Encore progresses, pre-opening costs related to this project will increase as opening approaches in 2009.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $72.6 million decreased by $4 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to the reduced amortization of show production costs and rights with the cancellation of Avenue Q in May 2006.

Table of Contents

Contract termination fee

In February 2006, we agreed with the producers of Avenue Q to end their exclusive Las Vegas run at Wynn Las Vegas’ Broadway Theatre at the end of May 2006. To terminate the contract, we paid a termination fee of $5 million.

Property charges and other

Property charges and other for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $1.7 million decreased by approximately $5.6 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006.

In response to our evaluation of Wynn Las Vegas and the reactions of our guests, we continue to make enhancements to the property. The costs relating to assets retired as a result of these enhancement and remodel efforts are expensed as property charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the $1.7 million incurred primarily related to enhancements we made to the Le Rêve theatre. The $7.3 million incurred in the first half of the prior year related to several projects including the remodeling of six North Fairway Villas, the remodel of a portion of the former baccarat area to feature a casino bar, improved public baccarat space, and private baccarat salons, the remodel of the area of the Wynn retail esplanade formerly occupied by the art gallery at Wynn Las Vegas and the opening of a retail shop dedicated exclusively to selling Rolex watches and a men’s accessories store, and certain enhancements to our spa and salon and certain other areas.

Other non-operating costs and expenses

Interest income decreased by $4.5 million to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease is primarily due to reduced average restricted cash balances during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the first half of the prior year as a result of spending related to the development and construction of Encore.

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest of $10.6 million, was $46.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $62.8 million net of capitalized interest of $1.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. This decrease is due to lower average debt balances and lower interest rates as a result of the August 2006 bank refinancing and increased capitalized interest of $9.2 million due to the continuing construction costs of Encore. Capitalized interest continues to increase with the ongoing borrowings and construction costs related to Encore.

Our interest rate swaps are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended. The fair value of our interest rate swap is recorded as either an asset or liability. Changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps are recorded as an increase (or decrease) in the swap fair value in each period. We recorded an expense of approximately $588,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 resulting from the decrease in the fair value of our interest rate swap from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2006 we recorded a gain of $5.3 million resulting from the increase in the fair value of interest rate swap between December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2006. For further information on our interest rate swaps, see Item 3 – “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow from Operations

Our operating cash flows are primarily affected by our operating income generated by Wynn Las Vegas, interest paid, and non-cash charges included in operating income. Net cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $172.9 million compared to $74.5 million provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This increase is due to the increase in operating income as a result of improved overall operational results especially in the casino department.

Table of Contents

Capital Resources

We require a certain amount of cash on hand for operations. As of June 30, 2007, we had approximately $64 million of cash and cash equivalents available for new development activities, general corporate purposes, enhancements to Wynn Las Vegas, and to support the development and construction of Encore. As of June 30, 2007, we had approximately $40.6 million in cash and investments from the proceeds of our debt and equity financings, which is restricted for the following:

 

   

Construction, development and pre-opening expenses of Encore; and

 

   

$30 million restricted for the Encore completion guarantee.

Cash equivalents include investments in overnight money market funds. Restricted investments are kept in money market funds or relatively short-term, government-backed, marketable debt securities as required by agreements governing our debt facilities.

Investing Activities

Encore at Wynn Las Vegas

On April 28, 2006, we commenced construction on Encore. We expect to open Encore to the public in early 2009. Design and construction is progressing as expected at Encore. Current construction activities in the various project sections include the following:

The high-rise concrete pours have been completed through the 38th floor deck.

 

 

 

The drywall, mechanical, electrical and plumbing rough-in is completed up to the 10th floor and framing is completed up to the 19th floor.

 

 

 

Exterior glass installation is complete up to the 26th floor.

 

   

The low-rise casino concrete pours are complete.

 

   

The valet under the parking area has been poured and the columns and footings for the back of house basement are substantially complete.

 

   

The structural steel in the meeting rooms and the structural slab beneath the pool decks is in process.

 

   

Concrete has been poured for all 10 levels in the employee parking garage and the 10-level guest self park garage is substantially complete.

Our project budget is currently estimated at approximately $2.2 billion, consisting of approximately $2.1 billion for Encore and approximately $100 million for an employee parking garage on our Koval property, an associated pedestrian bridge and costs incurred in connection with the theatre remodeling and production of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” at Wynn Las Vegas. The project is being funded from our existing Credit Facilities and operating cash flow from Wynn Las Vegas. To the extent additional funds are required, we will provide these amounts with additional debt and equity contributions from Wynn Resorts or additional indebtedness to be incurred by Wynn Las Vegas.

On February 27, 2007, we entered into a Design Build Architectural, Engineering and Construction Services Agreement (the “Contract”) with Tutor-Saliba Corporation (“Tutor”) for the design and construction of Encore. The Contract sets forth all of the terms and conditions pursuant to which Tutor will design and construct Encore. In June 2007, we executed the First Amendment to the Contract which set the guaranteed maximum price for construction work covered by the Contract at $1.3 billion. In connection with the execution and delivery of the Contract, Tutor and the Ronald N. Tutor Separate Trust (the “Trust”) have entered into and consented to a Net Worth Agreement pursuant to which (x) the Trust agreed that it will retain its current majority holdings of Tutor and (y) the Trust and Tutor agreed that during the term of the Contract, Tutor will maintain (i) net worth of at least $100 million, and (ii) liquid assets of at least $50 million. As of June 30, 2007, we incurred approximately $567 million of project costs related to the development and construction of Encore and related capital improvements.

Table of Contents

The ongoing costs of Encore will be paid with funds from the following sources and in the following order of priority:

 

   

First, by using agreed amounts of excess cash flow from the operations of Wynn Las Vegas and any debt or equity contributions from Wynn Resorts or proceeds of additional debt financing at Wynn Las Vegas;

 

   

Second, by using the proceeds of borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Facilities;

 

   

Third, by using the funds from the completion guarantee deposit account.

Wynn Las Vegas

In response to our evaluation of Wynn Las Vegas and the reaction of our guests, we continue to make certain enhancements and refinements to the property. As a result, we have incurred and will continue to incur capital expenditures relating to these enhancements and refinements. Under the terms of the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Facilities, we are permitted to make up to $172.2 million of capital expenditures in 2007, of which we have expended approximately $23.8 million through June 30, 2007. The spending limit may be increased to the extent funds are contributed to Wynn Las Vegas by Wynn Resorts, Limited.

Financing Activities

Wynn Las Vegas and Encore

As of June 30, 2007, our Credit Facilities consist of a $900 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and $225 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan”).

For borrowings under the Term Loan we have elected, and expect to continue to elect, Eurodollar loans which bear interest at the 1-month LIBOR rate and include a margin of 1.875% on that outstanding balance. We have a $200 million notional amount interest rate swap to essentially fix the interest on $200 million of this Term Loan. (For further information, see Item 3. “Quantitative and Qualitative Discussions about Market Risk”.)

As of June 30, 2007, there are no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver. Consequently, $900 million remains available under the Revolver for future borrowings for the construction of Encore or for other uses as necessary. For borrowings under the Revolver, we have elected, and expect to continue to elect, Eurodollar loans, which bear interest at the 1-month LIBOR rate and currently include a margin of 1.625% on the outstanding balance. After opening Encore, the margin will fluctuate between a range of 1.0% to 1.75%, depending on our leverage ratio. In addition to interest, we also pay quarterly in arrears, an annual rate of 0.375% on the daily average of unborrowed availability under the Revolver. After the opening of Encore, the annual fee that we will be required to pay for unborrowed availability under the Revolver will be based on our leverage ratio and will range from an annual rate of 0.25% to 0.50%.

The $900 million Revolver will terminate and be payable in full on August 15, 2011. The Term Loan will mature in two installments: $112.5 million will be payable on September 30, 2012 and the remaining $112.5 million will be payable on August 15, 2013.

The Credit Facilities are obligations of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and are guaranteed by and secured by substantially all of the assets (except the corporate aircraft) of each of its subsidiaries (other than Wynn Completion Guarantor, LLC). The obligations of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and the guarantors under the Credit Facilities rank pari passu in right of payment with their existing and future senior indebtedness, including indebtedness with respect to the First Mortgage Notes and senior in right of payment to all of their existing and future subordinated indebtedness.

In April 2007, we amended our Credit Facilities to: (a) have the Final Completion as defined, be deemed satisfied for Wynn Las Vegas with the resulting release of (i) all amounts in excess of $30 million, which amount

must remain for Encore, from the Completion Guaranty Deposit; ($24.6 million), and (ii) the balance of funds in the Project Liquidity Reserve Account ($32.8 million), (b) increase the permitted expenditures for Encore from $300 million to $500 million prior to the execution of a guaranteed maximum price contract, and (c) permit the issuance of up to $500 million of unsecured debt as and when permitted under the indenture governing the First Mortgage Notes.

$44.75 Million Note Payable

On March 30, 2007, World Travel, LLC, a subsidiary of Wynn Las Vegas, refinanced the $44.75 million note payable. The new loan has a principal balance of $42 million and is due April 1, 2017. The loan is guaranteed by Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and secured by a first priority security interest in one of our two aircraft. Principal and interest are due quarterly with a balloon payment of $28 million due at maturity. Interest is calculated at the 90-day LIBOR rate plus 125 basis points. In connection with this transaction, we incurred a loss from extinguishment of debt of $157,000 related to the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with the original loan.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There have been no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2007 to our contractual obligations or off-balance sheet arrangements as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. However, in June 2007, we amended our Contract with Tutor for the construction of Encore which set the guaranteed maximum price for construction work covered by the Contract at $1.3 billion.

Other Liquidity Matters

We are restricted under the indenture governing the First Mortgage Notes from making certain “restricted payments” as defined in the indenture. These restricted payments include the payments of dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect holders of equity interests of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC. These restricted payments may not be made until Wynn Las Vegas has been completed and certain other financial and non-financial criteria have been satisfied. In addition, the Credit Facilities contain similar restrictions.

If completion of Encore is delayed, then our debt service obligations accruing prior to the actual opening will increase correspondingly. We intend to fund our operations and capital requirements from operating cash flow and remaining availability under our Credit Facilities. We cannot assure you, however, that Wynn Las Vegas will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings available to us under the Credit Facilities will be sufficient to enable us to service and repay Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s indebtedness and to fund its other liquidity needs. We may refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of the indebtedness on acceptable terms.

New business developments or other unforeseen events may occur, resulting in the need to raise additional funds. We continue to explore opportunities to develop additional gaming or related businesses in Las Vegas, as well as other domestic or international markets. There can be no assurances regarding the business prospects with respect to any other opportunity. Any other development would require us to obtain additional financing.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A description of our critical accounting policies is included in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Other than some additional information related to the allowance for estimated doubtful accounts receivable below, there have been no material change to these policies for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Table of Contents

Allowance for Estimated Doubtful Accounts Receivable

A substantial portion of our outstanding receivables relates to casino credit play. Credit play, through the issuance of markers, represents a significant portion of the table games volume at Wynn Las Vegas. We maintain strict controls over the issuance of credit and aggressively pursue collection from those customers who fail to pay their balances in a timely fashion. These collection efforts may include the mailing of statements and delinquency notices, personal contacts, the use of outside collection agencies, and litigation. Markers are generally legally enforceable instruments in the United States. Markers are not legally enforceable instruments in some foreign countries, but the United States assets of foreign customers may be used to satisfy judgments entered in the United States. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, approximately 50% and 55%, respectively, of our casino accounts receivable were owed by customers from foreign countries, primarily in Asia. The collectibility of markers given by foreign customers is affected by a number of factors including changes in currency exchange rates and economic conditions in the customers’ home countries.

We regularly evaluate our reserve for bad debts based on a specific review of customer accounts as well as management’s prior experience with collection trends in the casino industry and current economic and business conditions.

The following table presents key statistics related to our casino accounts receivables (amounts in thousands):

 

     June 30,
2007
   

December 31,

2006

 

Casino accounts receivables

   $ 107,144     $ 133,985  

Allowance for doubtful casino accounts receivable

     45,141     $ 34,683  

Allowance as a percentage of casino accounts receivable

     42.1 %     25.9 %

Percentage of casino accounts receivable outstanding over 180 days

     28.4 %     15.4 %

The increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of casino accounts receivable is due to a normal increase in casino accounts receivable outstanding over 180 days. While collection efforts remain active, it is our current policy to fully reserve all accounts over one year old. As our customer payment experience evolves, we will continue to refine our estimated reserve for bad debts. Accordingly, the associated provision for doubtful accounts charge may fluctuate. Because individual customer account balances can be significant, the reserve and the provision can change significantly between periods, as information about a certain customer becomes known or as changes in a region’s economy or legal system occur.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The interpretation provides guidance on classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and translation. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Since the Company is a pass-through entity for tax purposes, the adoption of this statement, effective January 1, 2007, did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have not yet determined the impact this statement will have on our consolidated financial statements after it is adopted on January 1, 2008.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.

Interest Rate Risks

Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our debt facilities that bear interest based on floating rates. We attempt to manage interest rate risk by managing the mix of long-term fixed rate borrowings and variable rate borrowings, and using hedging activities. We cannot assure you that these risk management strategies will have the desired effect, and interest rate fluctuations could have a negative impact on our results of operations. We do not use derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

As of June 30, 2007, we have one interest rate swap arrangement to hedge the underlying interest rate risk on a total of $200 million of borrowings under the Term Loan, which bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.875%. Under this interest rate swap arrangement, we receive payments at a variable rate of LIBOR and pay a fixed rate of 3.793% on the $200 million notional amount which expires on December 31, 2008. Although this interest rate swap is highly effective economically in fixing the interest rate on this borrowing under the Term Loan at approximately 5.7%, changes in fair value of our interest rate swap for each reporting period are, and will continue to be, recorded as an increase/(decrease) in swap fair value as the swap does not qualify for hedge accounting.

Summary of Historical Fair Values

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our interest rate swap had an approximate asset fair value of $4.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively. The fair value approximates the amount we would receive if this contract were settled at the valuation date. Fair value is estimated based upon current, and predictions of future, interest rate levels along a yield curve, the remaining duration of the instruments and other market conditions, and therefore, is subject to significant estimation and a high degree of variability of fluctuation between periods.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

As of June 30, 2007, approximately 96% of our long-term debt was based on fixed rates, including the notional amount related to our interest rate swap. Based on our borrowings as of June 30, 2007, an assumed 1% change in variable rates would cause our annual interest cost to change by approximately $670,000.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the six months ended June 30, 2007 to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

A description of our risk factors can be found in Item IA of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. There were no material changes to those risk factors during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Restrictions imposed by our debt instruments significantly restrict us, subject to certain exceptions for payment of allocable corporate overhead, from declaring or paying dividends or distributions. Specifically, we are restricted under the indenture governing the First Mortgage Notes from making certain “restricted payments” as defined therein. These restricted payments include the payment of dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect holders of our membership interests. These restricted payments may not be made until certain other financial and non-financial criteria have been satisfied. In addition, our Credit Facilities contain similar restrictions.
