Exhibit 99.1
Wynn Resorts, Limited Reports Second Quarter Results
LAS VEGAS, August 1, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Wynn Resorts, Limited (Nasdaq:
WYNN) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Net Revenues for the quarter were $273.4 million and adjusted net loss
(excluding $15.2 million in pre-opening expenses, property charges and increase
in swap fair value) was $4.9 million, or $0.05 per share (adjusted EPS) (1). On
a US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) basis, net loss was $20.1
million, or $0.20 per share.
Wynn Las Vegas Second Quarter Results
For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Wynn Las Vegas generated adjusted EBITDA
(2) of $73.2 million, representing a 26.8% margin on second quarter net
revenues. The lower margins in the quarter resulted primarily from low hold
percentage in the casino in June.
Net gaming revenues in the second quarter of 2006 were $113.5 million. Table
games drop was $466.1 million, with win per table per day (before discounts) of
$7,187 for the quarter. Table games win percentage of 19.8% was on the
lower-end of the property's expected range of 19% to 22%. Slot machine win per
unit per day was $240 on handle (volume) of $907 million in the quarter.
Although slot handle maintained its pace with historical levels, win percentage
was lower than in previous quarters (but within the normal expected range of 5%
to 6%), resulting in the decline in win per unit per day for the quarter.
Gross non-gaming revenues for the quarter were $196.3 million, a 2.4% increase
from the first quarter of 2006. Wynn Las Vegas' room revenues were $69.2
million with an Average Daily Rate (ADR) of $293 and occupancy of 95.7%,
generating revenue per available room (REVPAR) of $280 for the period. Other
non-gaming revenues for the second quarter of 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 $13.0
million.
Wynn Macau
Wynn Macau is being constructed and will open in phases, with a total project
budget of $1.2 billion. The first phase will open in September 2006 and will
utilize approximately 11 acres of a total site area of 16 acres of land and
features 600 hotel rooms and suites, approximately 210 table games and 380 slot
machines in approximately 100,000 square feet of casino gaming space, seven
restaurants, approximately 26,000 square feet of retail space, a spa, a salon,
entertainment lounges and meeting facilities. The second phase will include
approximately 135,000 square feet of additional casino space, one restaurant,
retail space, a theater, and a dramatic front feature attraction. The second
phase is expected to be completed and open to the public by the end of 2007.
The construction of Phase I of Wynn Macau is nearing completion and the
majority of the areas has been finished and is being turned over to operations.
Hotel room and banquet facility reservations are being accepted and online
reservations can be made through www.wynnmacau.com. There are currently 3,500
employees on staff and the remaining 1,500 employees will start by the second
week of August. The employees who are on staff are undergoing training by 250
supervisors who are leading the efforts. Several areas such as information
technology, security and surveillance and the employee cafeteria, are fully
functional.
As of June 30, 2006, the Company has incurred approximately $716.0 million of a
total project budget of approximately $1.2 billion (including the expansion of
the second phase).
We continue to make progress on our land concession discussions for a 54 acre
site on Cotai in Macau and expect to finalize those discussions in the third
quarter of 2006.
Encore at Wynn Las Vegas
We are constructing Encore at Wynn Las Vegas ("Encore") on approximately 20
acres on the Strip, immediately adjacent to Wynn Las Vegas. On March 31, 2006,
our lenders approved the $1.74 billion project budget and the related plans and
specifications for Encore. Encore includes a 2,042-room hotel tower fully
integrated with Wynn Las Vegas, consisting of 132 suites and 1,910 guest rooms,
as well as an approximately 54,000 square foot casino, additional convention
and meeting space, as well as restaurants, a nightclub, swimming pools, a spa
and salon and retail outlets. We commenced construction of Encore on April 28,
2006 and expect it to be completed by the end of 2008. The project budget for
Encore includes approximately $70.0 million to be incurred for construction of
a new employee parking garage on our Koval property, a related pedestrian
bridge and costs to be incurred in connection with preparing the Broadway
Theater to host "Monty Python's Spamalot." We expect "Monty Python's Spamalot"
to begin performances at Wynn Las Vegas in the first quarter of 2007.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $40.5 million during the second
quarter. Interest expense, net of $8.6 million in capitalized interest, was
$35.3 million for the second quarter of 2006. Pre-opening expenses, primarily
related to Wynn Macau, totaled $17.0 million during the quarter. Corporate
expenses and other was $11.5 million, including $2.9 million of stock option
expenses.
Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures
Our total cash balances at the end of the quarter were $833.5 million,
including unrestricted cash balances of $379.0 million and cash balances
restricted for our construction and development projects of $454.5 million.
Total debt outstanding at the end of the quarter was $2.3 billion, including
$224.7 million of Convertible Debentures and $306.0 million of Wynn Macau
related debt. Capital expenditures during the second quarter of 2006, net of
changes in construction payables and retention, totaled approximately $110
million, of which approximately $80 million was related to Wynn Macau and the
remaining was mostly associated with Encore.

Forward-looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements regarding operating trends and
future results of operations. Such forward-looking information involves
important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated
results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those
expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us. The risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, competition in the casino/hotel
and resorts industries, the Company's brief operating history, the Company's
dependence on existing management, levels of travel, leisure and casino
spending, general domestic or international economic conditions, and changes in
gaming laws or regulations. Additional information concerning potential factors
that could affect the Company's financial results are included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the
Company's other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any
such obligation to) update its forward-looking statements as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP financial measures
(1) Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") are
presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management
believes that these financial measures are widely used to measure the
performance, and as a principal basis for valuation, of gaming
companies. These measures are considered by many to be a better
indicator on which to base expectations of future results than income
or EPS computed in accordance with GAAP.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
amortization, pre-opening expenses, property charges, corporate
expenses, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and
expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental
disclosure because management believes that it is widely used to
measure the performance, and as a principal basis for valuation, of
gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as the primary
measure of the operating performance of Wynn Las Vegas and to compare
the operating performance of its property with those of its
competitors. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA because it is
used by some investors as a way to measure a company's ability to
incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working
capital requirements. Gaming companies have historically reported
EBITDA as a supplement to financial measures in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States
("GAAP"). In order to view the operations of their casinos on a more
stand-alone basis, gaming companies, including Wynn Resorts, Limited,
have historically excluded from their EBITDA calculations pre-opening
expense, property charges and corporate expense, which do not relate
to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted
EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income,
as an indicator of operating performance, as an alternative to cash
flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an
alternative to any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP.
Unlike net income Adjusted EBITDA does not include depreciation or
interest expense and therefore does not reflect current or future
capital expenditures or the cost of capital. 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.
Also, Wynn Resorts, Limited's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be
different from the calculation methods used by other companies, and
therefore, comparability may be limited.
Wynn Resorts' calculation of adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and
Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by
other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. The
Company has included schedules in the tables that accompany this
release that reconcile (i) net loss and net loss per share to adjusted
net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share, and (ii)
net loss to Adjusted EBITDA.
