NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Wynn Resorts, Limited, a Nevada corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Wynn Resorts” or the “Company”), was formed in June 2002 and completed an initial public offering of its common stock on October 25, 2002.

In June 2002, the Company’s indirect subsidiary, Wynn Resorts (Macau), S.A. (“Wynn Macau, S.A.”), entered into an agreement with the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Macau”), granting Wynn Macau, S.A. the right to construct and operate one or more casino gaming properties in Macau. Wynn Macau, S.A.’s first casino resort in Macau is hereinafter referred to as “Wynn Macau.”

The Company currently owns and operates casino hotel resort properties in Las Vegas, Nevada and Macau. In Las Vegas, Nevada, the Company owns Wynn Las Vegas, which opened on April 28, 2005 and was expanded with the opening of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas on December 22, 2008 (“Wynn Las Vegas” or the “Las Vegas Operations”). In Macau, the Company owns Wynn Macau, which opened on September 6, 2006 and was expanded with the opening of Encore at Wynn Macau on April 21, 2010 (“Wynn Macau” or the “Macau Operations”).

In October 2009, Wynn Macau, Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the developer, owner and operator of Wynn Macau, listed its ordinary shares of common stock on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Through an initial public offering, including the over allotment, Wynn Macau, Limited sold 1,437,500,000 shares (27.7%) of its common stock.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Investments in the 50%-owned joint ventures operating the Ferrari and Maserati automobile dealership and the Brioni mens’ retail clothing store inside Wynn Las Vegas are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the previous periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income.

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, 2012, 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, 2011.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments with purchase maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents of $1.2 billion and $545 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, were invested in time deposits, money market accounts and commercial paper. In addition, the Company held cash in bank and cash on hand of approximately $773.2 million and $717.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Investment Securities

Investment securities consist of short-term and long-term investments in domestic and foreign corporate debt securities and commercial paper. The Company’s investment policy limits the amount of exposure to any one issuer with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. Management determines the appropriate classification (held-to-maturity/available-for-sale) of its securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company’s current investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income. Adjustments are made for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity computed under the effective interest method. Such amortization is included in interest income together with realized gains and losses and the stated interest on such securities.

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. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximately 81% and 84%, respectively, of the Company’s markers were due from customers residing outside the United States, 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 allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to reduce the Company’s receivables to their estimated 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. During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an adjustment to its reserve estimates for casino accounts receivable based on the results of historical collection patterns and current collection trends. This adjustment benefitted operating income by $30.9 million and net income attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited by $23.3 million (or $0.23 per share and $0.22 per share on a fully diluted basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively). This change in estimate was the primary factor that resulted in a $17.3 million credit to the provision for doubtful accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

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’

9

possession. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Hotel, food and beverage, entertainment and other operating revenues are recognized when services are performed. Entertainment, retail and other revenue includes rental income which is recognized on a time proportion basis over the lease term. Contingent rental income is recognized when the right to receive such rental income is established according to the lease agreements. Advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales are recorded as customer deposits until services are provided to the customer.

Revenues are recognized net of certain sales incentives which are required to be recorded as a reduction of revenue; consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions, and points earned in the player’s club loyalty program.

The retail value of accommodations, food and beverage, and other services furnished to guests without charge is included in gross revenues and then deducted as promotional allowances. The estimated cost of providing such promotional allowances is primarily included in casino expenses as follows (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

	$	42,470	$	40,779	$	88,976	$	85,605

Gaming Taxes

The Company is subject to taxes based on gross gaming revenue in the jurisdictions in which it operates, subject to applicable jurisdictional adjustments. These gaming taxes are an assessment on the Company’s gaming revenue and are recorded as an expense within the “Casino” line item in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. These taxes totaled approximately $443.1 million and $485.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These taxes totaled approximately $907.6 million and $910.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs the first time the advertising takes place and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, advertising costs totaled approximately $6.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively. These costs totaled approximately $11.3 million and $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities, such as cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities and interest rate swaps, at fair value on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These accounting standards establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Wynn Resorts by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the addition of potentially dilutive securities, which for the Company include stock options and nonvested stock. The weighted average common shares outstanding decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, due to the redemption and cancellation of 24,549,222 common shares on February 18, 2012, from a former stockholder and related party as described in Notes 9 and 15.

The weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Weighted average common shares outstanding (used in calculation of basic earnings per share)		99,782		123,970		106,243		123,864
Potential dilution from the assumed exercise of stock options and nonvested stock		1,228		1,759		1,265		1,703
Weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding (used in calculation of diluted earnings per share)		101,010		125,729		107,508		125,567
Anti-dilutive stock options excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share		689		600		535		630

Interest paid for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, totaled approximately $100 million and $113.1 million, respectively. Capitalized interest was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. No interest was capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, there were no changes in construction payables and retention included in capital expenditures. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, capital expenditures included a decrease of $7.3 million in construction payables and retention.

For investments with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments, and (ii) it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell these investments prior to the recovery of the amortized cost. Accordingly, the Company has determined that no other-than-temporary impairments exist at the reporting date.

The Company obtains pricing information in determining the fair value of its available-for-sale securities from independent pricing vendors. Based on management’s inquiries, the pricing vendors use various pricing models consistent with what other market participants would use. The assumptions and inputs used by the pricing vendors are derived from market observable sources including: reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark curves, bids, offers and other market-related data. Each quarter, the Company validates the fair value pricing methodology to determine the fair value consistent with applicable accounting guidance and to confirm that the securities are classified properly in the fair value hierarchy. The Company compares the pricing received from its vendors to independent sources for the same or similar securities and no adjustment to such prices have resulted.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of these investment securities at June 30, 2012, by contractual maturity, are as follows (amounts in thousands):

	Amortized cost		Fair value
Available-for-sale securities:
Due in one year or less	$	219,734	$	219,130

5 ³/₈% Wynn Las Vegas First Mortgage Notes

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. (together the “Issuers”) issued $900 million aggregate principal amount of 5 ³/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 12, 2012 (the “2022 Indenture”). A portion of the proceeds were used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Wynn Las Vegas term loan facilities.

The 2022 Notes will mature on March 15, 2022 and bear interest at the rate of 5 ³/₈% per annum. The Issuers may redeem all or a portion of the 2022 Notes at any time on or after March 15, 2017, at a premium decreasing ratably to zero, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to March 15, 2015, the Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes with the net proceeds of one or more qualified equity contributions made to the Issuers by their parent, Wynn Resorts, Limited. If the Issuers undergo a change of control, they must offer to repurchase the 2022 Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If the Issuers sell certain assets or suffer an event of loss, and the Issuers do not use the sale or insurance proceeds for specified purposes, they must offer to repurchase the 2022 Notes at 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2022 Notes are also subject to mandatory redemption requirements imposed by gaming laws and regulations of gaming authorities in Nevada.

The 2022 Notes are the Issuers’ senior secured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas revolving credit facilities (“Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities” as described below) and the Issuers’ outstanding 7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”), the

14

7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (“7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes”) and the 7 ³/₄% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (the “7 ³/₄% 2020 Notes” and, together with the 2017 Notes and the 7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes, the “Existing Notes”). The 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis (with certain exceptions) by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Issuers’ existing and future assets, and, subject to gaming approval, a first priority pledge of Wynn Las Vegas’ equity interests, all of which is the same collateral that secures borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The first priority lien securing the 2022 Notes may be released in whole, or in part, under certain circumstances without the consent of the holders of the 2022 Notes, including if the liens on any such collateral are released either upon a termination of the credit facilities or otherwise.

The 2022 Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by all of the Issuers’ subsidiaries except Wynn Completion Guarantor, LLC (the “Guarantors”). The guarantees of the 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Guarantors’ assets, the same collateral that secures the guarantees under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The guarantees of the 2022 Notes will be released if the guarantees of our credit facilities are released.

The 2022 Indenture contains covenants limiting the Issuers’ and the Issuers’ restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: pay dividends or distributions or repurchase equity; incur additional debt; make investments; create liens on assets to secure debt; enter into transactions with affiliates; issue stock of, or member’s interests in, subsidiaries; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; engage in other businesses; merge or consolidate with another company; transfer and sell assets; issue disqualified stock; create dividend and other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; and designate restricted and unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions.

The 2022 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities laws. Therefore, the Issuers may not offer or sell the notes within the United States to, or for the account or benefit of, any United States person unless the offer or sale would qualify for a registration exemption from the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Wynn Las Vegas Revolving Credit Facilities

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC entered into an eighth amendment (“Amendment No. 8”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement”). Amendment No. 8 amends the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit the issuance of the 2022 Notes. Concurrently with the issuance of the 2022 Notes, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC has prepaid all term loans under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, has terminated all of its revolving credit commitments that were due to expire in 2013, and has terminated all but $100 million of its revolving credit commitments expiring in 2015. In connection with this transaction, the Company expensed deferred financing fees of $4.8 million; all related to the Wynn Las Vegas term loan and revolving credit facilities.

As of June 30, 2012, no amounts had been borrowed under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC had $15.8 million of outstanding letters of credit that reduce availability for borrowing under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC had availability of $84.2 million under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

Wynn Macau Credit Facilities

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company repaid $150.4 million of borrowings under the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility. On June 27, 2012, the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility matured with an outstanding balance of $0. Beginning in September 2011, quarterly payments became due under the Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facilities and during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company repaid $74.3 million. As of June 30, 2012, the Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facilities were fully drawn, with total amounts outstanding of $403.5 million.

15

On July 31, 2012, Wynn Macau, S.A., amended and restated its credit facilities, dated September 14, 2004 (as so amended and restated, the “Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities”), and appointed Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch as intercreditor agent, facilities agent and security agent. The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities and related agreements took effect on July 31, 2012 and expand availability under Wynn Macau S.A.’s senior secured bank facility to US$2.3 billion equivalent, consisting of a US$750 million equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility and a US$1.55 billion equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility. Wynn Macau, S.A. also has the ability to upsize the total senior secured facilities by an additional US$200 million pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities, which consist of both Hong Kong Dollars and United States Dollar tranches, will be used to refinance Wynn Macau S.A.’s existing indebtedness, to fund the design, development, construction and pre-opening expenses of Wynn Cotai and for general corporate purposes.

The term loan facility matures in July 2018, and the revolving credit facility matures in July 2017. The principal amount of the term loan is required to be repaid in two equal installments in July 2017 and July 2018. The senior secured facilities will bear interest for the first six months after closing at LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of 2.50% and thereafter will be subject to LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of between 1.75% to 2.50% based on Wynn Macau, S.A.’s leverage ratio.

Customary fees and expenses were paid by Wynn Macau, S.A. in connection with the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.

Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Palo Real Estate Company Limited (“Palo”), a subsidiary of Wynn Macau, S.A., and by certain subsidiaries of the Company that own equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A., and are secured by substantially all of the assets of Wynn Macau, S.A., the equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A. and, subject to certain post-closing matters, substantially all of the assets of Palo.

The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities contain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default customary for casino development financings in Macau.

Redemption Price Promissory Note

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, the Company redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption of the shares held by unsuitable persons at a “fair value” redemption price. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares which are subject to the terms of an existing stockholder agreement. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the Company issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note to Aruze USA, Inc., a former stockholder and related party, in redemption of the shares. The Redemption Price Promissory Note (the “Redemption Note”) has a principal amount of $1.94 billion, matures on February 18, 2022 and bears interest at the rate of 2% per annum payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, and without penalty or premium, prepay the whole or any portion of the principal or interest due under the Redemption Note. In no instance shall any payment obligation under the Redemption Note be accelerated except in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company or as specifically mandated by law. The indebtedness evidenced by the Redemption Note is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Redemption Note, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future obligations of Wynn Resorts and any of its affiliates in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind or nature.

The Company has recorded the fair value of the Redemption Note at its estimated present value of approximately $1.94 billion in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In determining this fair value, the Company considered the stated maturity of the Redemption Note, its stated interest rate, and the uncertainty

16

of the related cash flows of the Redemption Note as well as the potential effects of the following: uncertainties surrounding the potential outcome and timing of pending litigation with Aruze USA, Inc. (see Note 15); the outcome of on-going investigations by the Nevada Gaming Control Board; and other potential legal and regulatory actions. In addition, in the furtherance of various future business objectives, the Company considered its ability, at its sole option, to prepay the Redemption Note at any time in accordance with its terms without penalty. Accordingly, the Company reasonably determined that the estimated life of the Redemption Note could be less than the contractual life of the Redemption Note. When considering the appropriate rate of interest to be used to determine fair value for accounting purposes and in light of the uncertainty in the timing of the cash flows, the Company used observable inputs from a range of trading values of financial instruments with lives similar to the estimated life of the Redemption Note. As a result of this analysis, the Company concluded the Redemption Note’s stated rate of 2% approximated a market rate.

Debt Covenant Compliance

As of June 30, 2012, management believes the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

The net book value of the Company’s outstanding first mortgage notes was approximately $3.1 billion and $2.2 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding first mortgage notes, based on recent trades (using level 2 inputs), was approximately $3.3 billion and $2.4 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The net book value of the Company’s other debt instruments, excluding the Redemption Price Promissory Note, was approximately $459.3 million and $1.1 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Company’s other debt instruments was approximately $455.2 million and $1 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Redemption Price Promissory Note was approximately $1.94 billion at June 30, 2012.

10. Interest Rate Swaps

In June 2012, the Wynn Macau swap matured and the Company terminated its Wynn Las Vegas swap for a payment of $2.4 million. Accordingly, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2012.

The Company had entered into floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements in order to manage interest rate risk relating to certain of its debt facilities. These interest rate swap agreements modified the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of the Company’s floating-rate debt to a fixed rate. These interest rate swaps essentially fixed the interest rate at the percentages noted below; however, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps for each reporting period have been recorded as an increase/decrease in swap fair value in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, as the interest rate swaps do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The Company measured the fair value of its interest rate swaps on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. The Company utilized Level 2 inputs as described in Note 2 to determine fair value. The fair value approximates the amount the Company would pay if these contracts were settled at the respective valuation dates. 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 and fluctuation between periods. The fair value is adjusted to reflect the impact of credit ratings of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. These adjustments resulted in a reduction in the fair values as compared to their settlement values. As of December 31, 2011, the interest rate swap liabilities of $7.3 million were included in other current accrued liabilities.

Wynn Las Vegas Swap

The Company had one interest rate swap agreement to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Under this swap agreement, the Company paid a fixed interest rate of 2.485% on borrowings of $250 million incurred under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement in

17

exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR at the time of payment. This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on $250 million of borrowings at approximately 5.485%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $4.6 million.

Wynn Macau Swap

The Company had one interest rate swap agreement to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities which matured in June 2012. Under this swap agreement, the Company paid a fixed interest rate of 2.15% on borrowings of HK$2.3 billion (approximately US$300 million) incurred under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable HIBOR at the time of payment. This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on such borrowings at 3.4%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $2.7 million.

11. Related Party Transactions

Related Party Share Redemption

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, the Company redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption of the shares held by unsuitable persons at a “fair value” redemption price. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares which are subject to the terms of an existing stockholder agreement. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the Company issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note to Aruze USA, Inc., a former stockholder and related party, in redemption of the shares.

Amounts Due to Officers

The Company periodically provides services to Stephen A. Wynn, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer (“Mr. Wynn”), and certain other officers and directors of the Company, including household employees, construction work and other personal services. Mr. Wynn and the other officers and directors have deposits with the Company to prepay any such items, which are replenished on an ongoing basis as needed. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Mr. Wynn and the other officers and directors had a net deposit balance with the Company of approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Villa Suite Lease

On March 18, 2010, Mr. Wynn and Wynn Las Vegas entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement of Lease (the “SW Lease”) for a villa suite to serve as Mr. Wynn’s personal residence. The SW Lease amends and restates a prior lease. The SW Lease was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. The term of the SW Lease commenced as of March 1, 2010 and runs concurrent with Mr. Wynn’s employment agreement with the Company; provided that either party may terminate on 90 days notice. Pursuant to the SW Lease, the rental value of the villa suite is treated as imputed income to Mr. Wynn, and is equal to the fair market value of the accommodations provided. Effective March 1, 2010, and for the first two years of the term of the SW Lease, the rental value was $503,831 per year. Effective March 1, 2012, the rental value is $440,000 per year based on the current fair market value as established by the Audit Committee of the Company in reliance upon the opinion of an independent third-party appraisal. The rental value for the villa suite will be re-determined every two years during the term of the lease by the Audit Committee, with the assistance of an independent third-party appraisal. Certain services for, and maintenance of, the villa suite are included in the rental, as well as the use of minimal warehouse space at Wynn Las Vegas.

The “Wynn” Surname Rights Agreement

On August 6, 2004, the Company entered into agreements with Mr. Wynn that confirm and clarify the Company’s rights to use the “Wynn” name and Mr. Wynn’s persona in connection with its casino resorts. Under the parties’ Surname Rights Agreement, Mr. Wynn granted the Company 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 the Company 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.

This contribution consists of a $25 million payment made in May 2011, and a commitment for additional donations of $10 million each year for the calendar years 2012 through 2022 inclusive, for a total of $135 million. The amount reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income has been discounted using the Company’s then estimated borrowing rate over the time period of the remaining committed payments. In accordance with accounting standards for contributions, subsequent accretion of the discount is being recorded as additional donation expense and included in Property charges and other. Property charges and other for the six months ended June 30, 2011 also include the write off of certain costs related to a show that ended its run in Las Vegas and miscellaneous renovations and abandonments at our resorts.

13. Noncontrolling Interest

In October 2009, Wynn Macau, Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the developer, owner and operator of Wynn Macau, listed its ordinary shares of common stock on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Through an initial public offering, including the over allotment, Wynn Macau, Limited sold 1,437,500,000 shares (27.7%) of its common stock. The shares of Wynn Macau, Limited were not and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent a registration under the Securities Act as amended, or an applicable exception from such registration requirements. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $61.2 million and $33.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Wynn Macau

Cotai Development and Land Concession Contract. In September 2011, Palo Real Estate Company Limited and Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A., each an indirect subsidiary of Wynn Macau, Limited, formally accepted the terms and conditions of a draft land concession contract from the Macau government for approximately 51 acres of land in the Cotai area of Macau. On May 2, 2012, the land concession contract was gazetted by the government of Macau evidencing the final step in the granting of the land concession. The Company anticipates constructing a full scale integrated resort containing a casino, approximately 2,000 rooms and suites, convention, retail, entertainment and food and beverage offerings on this land. The Company currently estimates the project budget to be in the range of $3.5 billion to $4.0 billion.

The initial term of the land concession contract is 25 years from May 2, 2012, and it may be renewed with government approval for successive periods. The total land premium payable, including interest as described in the land concession contract, is $193.4 million. An initial payment of $62.5 million was paid in December 2011, with eight additional semi-annual payments of approximately $16.4 million each (which includes interest at 5%) due beginning November 2012. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has recorded this obligation and related asset with $27.2 million included as a current liability and $90.2 million included as a long-term liability. The Company will also be required to make annual lease payments of $0.8 million during the resort construction period and annual payments of approximately $1.1 million once the development is completed.

Cotai Land Agreement. On May 10, 2012, the Company made a $50 million payment to an unrelated third party in consideration of that party’s relinquishment of certain rights in and to any future development on the Cotai land noted above. As of December 31, 2011, the Company accrued this $50 million obligation as a current liability.

Litigation

The Company’s affiliates are involved in litigation in addition to the actions noted below, arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

20

Atlantic-Pacific Capital

On May 3, 2010, Atlantic-Pacific Capital, Inc. (“APC”) filed an arbitration demand with Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services regarding an agreement with the Company. The action concerns a claim for compensation of approximately $32 million pursuant to an agreement entered into between APC and the Company on or about March 30, 2008 whereby APC was engaged to raise equity capital for an investment vehicle sponsored by the Company. APC is seeking compensation unrelated to the investment vehicle. The Company has denied APC’s claims for compensation. The Company filed a Complaint for Damages and Declaratory Relief against APC in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada, on May 10, 2010. APC removed the action to the United States District Court, District of Nevada. In March 2011, the court denied APC’s motion to compel arbitration. APC has appealed. Management believes that APC’s claim against the Company is without merit and intends to defend this matter vigorously.

Determination of Unsuitability and Redemption of Aruze USA, Inc. and Affiliates and Related Matters

On February 18, 2012, Wynn Resorts’ Gaming Compliance Committee concluded a year-long investigation after receiving an independent report by Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan, LLP (the “Freeh Report”) detailing a pattern of misconduct by Aruze USA, Inc., at the time a stockholder of Wynn Resorts, Universal Entertainment Corporation, Aruze USA, Inc.’s parent company, and Kazuo Okada, the majority shareholder of Universal Entertainment Corporation, who is also a member of Wynn Resorts’ Board of Directors and was at the time a director of Wynn Macau, Limited. The factual record presented in the Freeh Report included evidence that Aruze USA, Inc., Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Okada had provided valuable items to certain foreign gaming officials who were responsible for regulating gaming in a jurisdiction in which entities controlled by Mr. Okada were developing a gaming resort. Mr. Okada has denied the impropriety of such conduct to members of the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts and Mr. Okada has refused to acknowledge or abide by Wynn Resorts’ anti-bribery policies.

Based on the Freeh Report, the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts determined that Aruze USA, Inc., Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Okada are “unsuitable” under Article VII of the Company’s articles of incorporation. The Board of Directors was unanimous (other than Mr. Okada) in its determination. The Board of Directors also requested that Mr. Okada resign as a director of Wynn Resorts and recommended that Mr. Okada be removed as a member of the board of directors of Wynn Macau, Limited. In addition, on February 18, 2012, Mr. Okada was removed from the board of directors of Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts.

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, Wynn Resorts redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption at “fair value” of the shares held by unsuitable persons. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares held by Aruze USA, Inc. under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement (as defined below). Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, Wynn Resorts issued the Redemption Note to Aruze USA, Inc. in redemption of the shares. The Redemption Note has a principal amount of $1.94 billion, matures on February 18, 2022 and bears interest at the rate of 2% per annum, payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, and without penalty or premium, prepay the whole or any portion of the principal or interest due under the Redemption Note. In no instance shall any payment obligation under the Redemption Note be accelerated except in the sole and absolute discretion of Wynn Resorts or as specifically mandated by law. The indebtedness evidenced by the Redemption Note is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Redemption Note, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future obligations of Wynn Resorts or any of its affiliates in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind or nature.

21

On February 19, 2012, Wynn Resorts filed a complaint in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada against Mr. Okada, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation, companies controlled by Mr. Okada (the “Okada Parties”), alleging breaches of fiduciary duty and related claims. The Company is seeking compensatory and special damages as well as a declaration that it acted lawfully and in full compliance with its articles of incorporation, bylaws and other governing documents. On March 12, 2012, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation removed the action to the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. On that same date, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation filed an answer denying the claims and a counterclaim that purports to assert claims against the Company, each of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors (other than Mr. Okada) and a senior executive of the Company. Among other relief, the counterclaim seeks a declaration that the redemption of Aruze USA, Inc.’s shares was void, an injunction restoring Aruze USA, Inc.’s share ownership, damages in an unspecified amount and rescission of the Stockholders Agreement. The Company’s claim of February 19, 2012, was removed to federal court by the Okada Parties. On March 29, 2012, the Company filed a motion to remand the action to state court and to request an extension to answer. The motion to remand was granted and the Company’s request for related attorneys’ fees is fully briefed and pending. When the court rules on the pending fee motion, the case will be sent back to the state court, which has determined that this action will be coordinated with Mr. Okada’s inspection action (discussed below). The Okada Parties have filed a notice of intent to commence a separate federal securities action for the securities counterclaims previously asserted.

On June 19, 2012, Elaine Wynn responded to Aruze USA’s Counterclaim and asserted a cross claim against Steve Wynn and Kazuo Okada seeking a declaration that (1) any and all of Elaine Wynn’s duties under the January 2010 Stockholders Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”) by and among Aruze USA, Steve Wynn, and Elaine Wynn be discharged; (2) the Stockholders Agreement is subject to rescission and is rescinded; (3) the Stockholders Agreement is an unreasonable restraint on alienation in violation of public policy; and/or (4) the restrictions on sale of shares shall be construed as inapplicable to Elaine Wynn. By agreement of the parties, Mr. Wynn’s response to the cross claim is due within 14 days once the final order of remand is entered. The indentures for the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC 2022 Notes and Existing Notes (the “Indentures”) and the Credit Agreement provide that if Steve Wynn, together with certain related parties, in the aggregate beneficially owns a lesser percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company than are beneficially owned by any other person, a change of control will have occurred. If Elaine Wynn prevails in her cross claim, Steve Wynn would not beneficially own or control Elaine Wynn’s shares and a change in control may result under the Company’s debt documents. Under the Indentures, the occurrence of a change of control requires that the Company make an offer (unless the notes have been previously called for redemption) to each holder to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes purchased, if any, to the date of repurchase. Under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, the occurrence of these same events would constitute a change of control, which would be an event of default and would give the lenders the right to accelerate repayment, and would prevent Wynn Las Vegas from borrowing additional amounts. In addition, if more than $20,000,000 in borrowings are accelerated under the Credit Agreement, that would trigger an event of default under the Indentures.

On February 24, 2012, the board of directors of Wynn Macau, Limited removed Mr. Kazuo Okada from the board.

The Company provided the Freeh Report to applicable regulators and law enforcement agencies and intends to cooperate with any related investigation that such regulators or agencies may undertake. The conduct of the Okada Parties and any resulting regulatory investigations could have adverse consequences to the Company and its subsidiaries. A finding by regulatory authorities that Mr. Okada violated anti-corruption statutes and/or other laws or regulations applicable to persons affiliated with a gaming licensee on Company property and/or otherwise involved the Company in criminal or civil violations could result in actions by regulatory authorities against the Company. Relatedly, as described below, the Salt Lake Regional Office of the U.S. Securities and Exchange

22

Commission (“SEC”) has commenced an informal inquiry into, and other regulators could pursue separate investigations into, the Company’s compliance with applicable laws arising from the allegations in the matters described above and in response to litigation filed by Mr. Okada suggesting improprieties in connection with the Company’s donation to the University of Macau. While the Company believes that it is in full compliance with all applicable laws, any such investigations could result in actions by regulators against the Company.

Litigation Commenced by Kazuo Okada and Related Matters

On January 11, 2012, Mr. Okada commenced litigation in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada seeking to compel the Company to produce information relating to a donation to the University of Macau, among other things.

In May 2011, Wynn Macau, a majority owned subsidiary of the Company, made a commitment to the University of Macau Development Foundation in support of the new Asia-Pacific Academy of Economics and Management. This contribution consists of a $25 million payment made in May 2011 and a commitment for additional donations of $10 million each year for the calendar years 2012 through 2022 inclusive. The pledge was consistent with the Company’s long-standing practice of providing philanthropic support for deserving institutions in the markets in which it operates. The pledge was made following an extensive analysis which concluded that the gift was made in accordance with all applicable laws. The pledge was considered by the boards of directors of both the Company and Wynn Macau, Limited and approved by 15 of the 16 directors who serve on those boards. The sole dissenting vote was cast by Mr. Okada whose stated objection was to the length of time over which the donation would occur, not its propriety.

On February 8, 2012, following Mr. Okada’s lawsuit, the Company received a letter from the Salt Lake Regional Office of the SEC requesting that, in connection with an informal inquiry by the SEC, the Company preserve information relating to the donation to the University of Macau, any donations by the Company to any other educational charitable institutions, including the University of Macau Development Foundation, and the Company’s casino or concession gaming licenses or renewals in Macau. The Company is cooperating with the Salt Lake Regional Office staff and intends to fully comply with the SEC’s request.

At a hearing on February 9, 2012, the Nevada state court held that, as a director of the Company, Mr. Okada had the right to make a reasonable inspection of the Company’s corporate books and records. Following the hearing, the Company released certain documents to Mr. Okada for his inspection. At a subsequent hearing on March 8, 2012, the court considered Mr. Okada’s request that the Company’s Board of Directors make additional documents available to him, and ruled that Mr. Okada was entitled to inspect two additional pages of documents. The Company promptly complied with the court’s ruling.

On May 25, 2012, Mr. Okada amended his petition to request inspection of additional records. The Nevada state court ordered Mr. Okada to file a supplemental brief addressing how his requests relate to his duties as a director of the Company, and the Company was to respond by filing a supplemental brief on the reasonableness of Mr. Okada’s requests. After Mr. Okada filed his supplemental brief, the Company moved to depose Mr. Okada prior to having to file its supplemental brief. At a hearing on June 28, 2012, the state court ordered Mr. Okada to appear for a deposition in Las Vegas, Nevada. The deposition is scheduled for September 2012.

Related litigation

Six derivative actions have been commenced against the Company and all members of its Board of Directors: four in the United States District Court, District of Nevada, and two in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, Nevada.

The four pending federal actions brought by the following plaintiffs have been consolidated: (1) The Louisiana Municipal Police Employees’ Retirement System (“LMPERS”), (2) Maryanne Solak, (3) Excavators Union Local 731 Welfare Fund, and (4) Boilermakers Lodge No. 154 Retirement Fund.

23

The plaintiffs in the federal derivative actions filed a consolidated complaint on August 6, 2012, asserting claims for (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) waste of corporate assets; (3) injunctive relief; and (4) unjust enrichment. The claims are against all Company directors, including Mr. Okada. The federal derivative plaintiffs claim that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties and wasted assets by (a) failing to ensure the Company’s officers and directors complied with federal and state laws and the Company’s Code of Conduct; (b) voting to allow the Company’s subsidiary to make the donation to the University of Macau; and (c) redeeming Aruze USA’s stock such that the Company incurs the debt associated with the redemption. The federal plaintiffs seek unspecified compensatory damages, restitution in the form of disgorgement, reformation of corporate governance procedures, an injunction against all future payments related to the donation/pledge, and all fees (attorneys, accountants, and experts) and costs. Per the court’s July 5, 2012 Case Management Order, the parties are to confer regarding a deadline for the Company and the directors to respond.

The two state court actions brought by the following plaintiffs have also been consolidated: (1) IBEW Local 98 Pension Fund and (2) Danny Hinson. Through a coordination of efforts by all parties, the directors and the Company (a nominal defendant) have been served in all of the actions.

The plaintiffs in the state derivative actions filed a consolidated complaint on July 20, 2012 asserting claims for (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) abuse of control; (3) gross mismanagement; and (4) unjust enrichment. The claims are against all Company directors, including Mr. Okada, as well as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who signs financial disclosures filed with the SEC. The state derivative plaintiffs claim that the individual defendants failed to disclose to its shareholders the investigation into, and the dispute with director Okada as well as the alleged potential violations of the FCPA related to, the University of Macau Development Foundation donation. Plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages (compensatory and punitive), disgorgement, reformation of corporate governance procedures, an order directing the Company to internally investigate the donation, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and individual defendants will respond to the consolidated complaint by August 31, 2012.

The consolidated actions are in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any.

16. Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $4.7 million and tax expense of $5.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $4.9 million and tax expense of $7.3 million, respectively. The Company’s income tax benefit is primarily related to a decrease in deferred tax liabilities reduced by foreign taxes assessable on the dividends of Wynn Macau, S.A. and foreign tax provisions related to international marketing offices. Since June 30, 2010, the Company no longer considers its portion of the tax earnings and profits of Wynn Macau, Limited to be permanently invested. No additional U.S. tax provision has been made with respect to amounts not considered permanently invested as the Company anticipates that U.S. foreign tax credits should be sufficient to eliminate any U.S. tax provision relating to such repatriation. The Company has not provided deferred U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on temporary differences as these amounts are permanently reinvested. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized income tax benefits related to excess tax deductions associated with stock compensation costs of $1.1 million.

Wynn Macau, S.A. has received a 5-year exemption from Macau’s 12% Complementary Tax on casino gaming profits through December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company was exempted from the payment of $24.2 million and $13.3 million in such taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company was exempted from the payment of such taxes totaling $46.6 million and $34.5 million, respectively. The Company’s non-gaming profits remain

24

subject to the Macau Complementary Tax and casino winnings remain subject to the Macau Special Gaming tax and other levies together totaling 39% in accordance with its concession agreement.

In April 2012, the Company reached an agreement with the Appellate division of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding issues raised during the examination of the 2006 through 2009 U.S. income tax returns. The issues for consideration by the Appellate division were temporary differences related to the treatment of discounts extended to certain Las Vegas casino customers wagering on credit, the deduction of certain costs incurred during the development and construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas and the appropriate tax depreciation recovery periods applicable to certain assets. The settlement with the Appellate division does not impact the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits. The settlement of the 2006 through 2009 examination issues resulted in a cash tax payment of $1.3 million and the utilization of $3.1 million and $0.9 million in foreign tax credit and general business credit carryforwards, respectively.

In July 2012, the Macau Finance Bureau commenced an examination of the 2008 Macau income tax return of Wynn Macau, S.A. Since the examination is in its initial stages, the Company is unable to determine if it will conclude within the next 12 months. The Company believes that its liability for uncertain tax positions is adequate with respect to the 2008 examination year.

(1) “Adjusted Property EBITDA” is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, corporate expenses, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expenses and includes equity in income from unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted Property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted Property EBITDA as a measure 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 Property 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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 expenses, property charges, corporate expenses and stock-based compensation, which do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted Property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company’s 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 Property 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 Property EBITDA. Also, Wynn Resorts’ calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

18. Subsequent Events

On July 17, 2012, the Company announced a cash dividend of $0.50 per share, payable on August 14, 2012 to stockholders of record as of July 31, 2012.

Overview

We are a developer, owner and operator of destination casino resorts. We currently own and operate two casino resort complexes. In Las Vegas, Nevada, we own and operate Wynn Las Vegas, a destination casino resort which opened on April 28, 2005. In December 2008, we expanded Wynn Las Vegas with the opening of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas. We refer to the fully integrated Wynn Las Vegas and Encore at Wynn Las Vegas resort as our “Las Vegas Operations.” In the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Macau”), we own and operate Wynn Macau, which opened on September 6, 2006. On April 21, 2010, we opened Encore at Wynn Macau, a further expansion of Wynn Macau. We refer to the fully integrated Wynn Macau and Encore at Wynn Macau resort as our “Macau Operations.”

In response to our evaluation of our Macau Operations and the reactions of our guests, we have made and expect to continue to make enhancements and refinements to this resort complex.

Future Development

Approximately 142 acres of land comprising our Las Vegas Operations is currently improved with a golf course. While we may develop this property in the future, we have no immediate plans to do so.

In September 2011, Palo Real Estate Company Limited and Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A., each an indirect subsidiary of Wynn Macau, Limited, formally accepted the terms and conditions of a draft land concession contract from the Macau government for approximately 51 acres of land in the Cotai area of Macau. In December 2011, we made a $62.5 million initial deposit under the draft land concession contract. On May 2, 2012, the land concession contract was gazetted by the government of Macau, evidencing the final step in the granting of the land concession. We anticipate constructing a full scale integrated resort containing a casino, approximately 2,000 rooms and suites, convention, retail, entertainment and food and beverage offerings on this land. We currently estimate the project budget to be in the range of $3.5 billion to $4.0 billion.

Results of Operations

The table below presents our net revenues (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Net revenues
Las Vegas Operations	$	345,566	$	390,848	$	708,361	$	785,438
Macau Operations		907,641		976,505		1,858,344		1,842,187
	$	1,253,207	$	1,367,353	$	2,566,705	$	2,627,625

Reliance on only two resort complexes (in two geographic regions) for our operating cash flow 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 two resort complexes, many of our customers are premium gaming customers who wager on credit, thus exposing us to credit risk. High-end gaming also increases the potential for variability in our results.

Operating Measures

Certain key operating statistics specific to the gaming industry are included in our discussion of our operational performance for the periods for which a Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income is presented. There are two methods used to calculate win percentage in the casino industry. In Las Vegas and in the general casino in Macau, customers usually purchase cash chips at the gaming tables. The cash and net markers used to purchase the cash chips are deposited in the gaming table’s drop box. This is the base of measurement that we use in the casino at our Las Vegas Operations and in the general casino at our Macau Operations for calculating win percentage.

In our VIP casino in Macau, customers primarily purchase non-negotiable chips, commonly referred to as rolling chips, from the casino cage and there is no deposit into a gaming table drop box from chips purchased from the cage. Non-negotiable chips can only be used to make wagers. Winning wagers are paid in cash chips. The loss of the non-negotiable chips in the VIP casino is recorded as turnover and provides a base for calculating VIP casino win percentage. Because of this difference in chip purchase activity, the measurement base used in the general casino is not the same that is used in the VIP casino. It is customary in Macau to measure VIP casino play using this rolling chip method.

The measurement method in Las Vegas and in the general casino in Macau tracks the initial purchase of chips at the table while the measurement method in our VIP casino in Macau tracks the sum of all losing wagers. Accordingly, the base measurement in the VIP casino is much larger than Las Vegas and the general casino in Macau. As a result, the expected win percentage with the same amount of gaming win is smaller in the VIP casino in Macau when compared to Las Vegas and the general casino in Macau.

Even though both use the same measurement method, we experience different win percentages in Las Vegas and the general casino in Macau. This difference is primarily due to the difference in the mix of table games and customer playing habits between the two casinos. Each type of table game has its own theoretical win percentage. In the second quarter of 2011, we increased our expectations for table games win percentage in the general casino at Wynn Macau from 21%–23% to 26%–28% based on our experience since the opening of the Encore at Wynn Macau expansion.

Below are definitions of the statistics discussed:

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

• Turnover is the sum of all losing rolling chip wagers within our Wynn Macau VIP program.

• Rolling chips are identifiable chips that are used to track VIP wagering volume (turnover) for purposes of calculating incentives.

30

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

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

• Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) is calculated by dividing total room revenue including the retail value of promotional allowances (less service charges, if any) by total rooms occupied including complimentary rooms.

• Revenue per Available Room (“REVPAR”) is calculated by dividing total room revenue including the retail value of promotional allowances (less service charges, if any) by total rooms available.

• Occupancy is calculated by dividing total occupied rooms including complimentary rooms by total rooms available.

Financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Revenues

Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012, were comprised of $953.4 million in casino revenues (76.1% of total net revenues) and $299.8 million of net non-casino revenues (23.9% of total net revenues). Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011, are comprised of $1,082 million in casino revenues (79.1% of total net revenues) and $285.3 million of net non-casino revenues (20.9% of total net revenues).

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, 2012, of $953.4 million represents a $128.6 million (11.9%) decrease from casino revenues of $1,082 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, our Las Vegas Operations experienced a $59.7 million (37.7%) decrease in casino revenues to $98.6 million, compared to the prior year quarter due to a significant decrease in our table games win percentage (before discounts). Our table games win percentage decreased from 27.6% in 2011 to 15% in 2012. Our expected range is 21% to 24%. Drop increased $40.9 million (7.6%) to $575.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $534.7 million in the prior year quarter. Slot machine handle at our Las Vegas Operations increased $22.2 million (3.2%) to $707.8 million compared to $685.6 million in the prior year quarter; however slot machine win of $40.5 million was flat compared to the prior year quarter.

Our Macau Operations experienced a $68.9 million (7.5%) decrease in casino revenues to $854.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the prior year quarter. We experienced a $66.3 million (10.2%) decrease in revenue for the VIP segment due to a $2,338 million (7.2%) decrease in turnover, notwithstanding an increase in the number of VIP table games. Our win as a percentage of turnover for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was 2.79%, which was at the lower end of the expected range of 2.7% to 3.0%, and lower than the 2.89% experienced in the prior year quarter. In our general casino, table games win increased $8.1 million (4.2%) to $200 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The table games win percentage in the general casino was 29.8%, which is above the expected range of 26% to 28% and the 27.8% experienced for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Drop decreased by only $18.4 million (2.7%) to $671.8 million despite a 10% decrease in the number of table games when compared to the prior year quarter. Slot machine handle declined $332 million (22.1%) to $1,171 million and slot win declined $11.4 million (15.3%) to $63.4 million primarily due to increased competition in the premium segment. In addition, we removed 114 machines from the gaming floor compared to the prior year quarter.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, room revenues were $124.9 million, an increase of $4.9 million (4.1%) compared to prior year quarter room revenue of $120 million. Room revenue at our Las Vegas Operations increased approximately $5.1 million (5.6%) compared to the prior year quarter. In Las Vegas, during the three months ended June 30, 2012, we experienced an increase in room rates compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011, but this increase in rate was accompanied by a small decrease in occupancy rate of 1.6 percentage points. ADR at our Las Vegas Operations has increased as we adjusted rates in an effort to attract customers who would take advantage of all aspects of our resort. Room revenue at our Macau Operations decreased $0.2 million (0.8%) due to a decrease in occupancy, compared to the prior year quarter.

31

The table below sets forth key operating measures related to room revenue.

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012			2011
Average Daily Rate
Las Vegas	$	254		$	240
Macau		317			314
Occupancy
Las Vegas		87.6	%		89.2	%
Macau		90.0	%		90.5	%
REVPAR
Las Vegas	$	222		$	214
Macau		286			284

Other non-casino revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012, included food and beverage revenues of $161.1 million, retail revenues of $63 million, entertainment revenues of $18.1 million, and other revenues from outlets, including the spa and salon, of $20.3 million. Other non-casino revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011, included food and beverage revenues of $147.8 million, retail revenues of $63.3 million, entertainment revenues of $19 million, and other revenues from outlets such as the spa and salon, of $20.1 million. Food and beverage revenues at our Las Vegas Operations increased $12.4 million, while our Macau Operations increased $0.9 million, as compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in Las Vegas is due primarily to strong business in our beach club and nightclubs. Retail revenues at our Macau Operations increased $1.5 million, while retail revenues at our Las Vegas Operations decreased $1.8 million. The increase at Wynn Macau is due to strong same store sales growth and new stores. Retail revenues at our Las Vegas operations decreased as we reconfigured the Encore retail area and are in the process of rebranding several retail outlets. Entertainment revenues decreased over the prior year quarter primarily due to a loss of revenues from the Sinatra “Dance with Me” show, which ended its run in Las Vegas on April 23, 2011.

Departmental, Administrative and Other Expenses

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $645.7 million, room expenses of $33.3 million, food and beverage expenses of $84.5 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $46.1 million. Also included are general and administrative expenses of $99.8 million and a credit of $17.3 million for the provision for doubtful accounts receivable. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $684.5 million, room expenses of $31.9 million, food and beverage expenses of $75 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $54.2 million. Also included for the three months ended June 30, 2011, are general and administrative expenses of $91.9 million and $3.8 million charged as a provision for doubtful accounts receivable. Casino expenses decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2012, from the prior year quarter due primarily to lower gaming taxes and junket commissions commensurate with the decrease in gaming revenues at our Macau Operations partially offset by increases in casino payroll expenses. Food and beverage expenses increased over the prior year quarter primarily due to additional nightclub promotional costs in Las Vegas. The decrease in entertainment, retail and other expenses was driven by the conversion of certain owned retail stores to leased outlets in Macau resulting in a lower cost of sales. General and administrative expense increased primarily due to legal and other costs incurred related to the share redemption and litigation with a former stockholder, combined with pay rate increases. During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we recorded an adjustment to our reserve estimates for casino accounts receivable based on the results of historical collection patterns and current collection trends. This change in estimate was the primary factor that resulted in a $17.3 million credit to the provision for doubtful accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

32

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $93.5 million compared to $102.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily due to assets with a 5-year life at Wynn Macau being fully depreciated as of September 2011.

During the construction of our properties, costs incurred in the construction of the buildings, improvements to land and the purchases of assets for use in operations were capitalized. Once these properties opened, their assets were placed into service and we began recognizing the associated depreciation expense. Depreciation expenses will continue throughout the estimated useful lives of these assets. In addition, we continually evaluate the useful life of our property and equipment, intangibles and other assets and adjust them when warranted.

The maximum useful life of assets at Wynn Macau is the remaining life of the gaming concession or land concession, which currently expire in June 2022 and August 2029, respectively. Consequently, depreciation related to Wynn Macau is charged on an accelerated basis when compared to our Las Vegas Operations.

Property charges and other

Property charges and other for the three months ended June 30, 2012, were $3.5 million compared to $111.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, property charges and other related primarily to miscellaneous renovations and abandonments at our resorts. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 property charges and other includes a charge of $107.5 million reflecting the present value of a charitable contribution made by Wynn Macau to the University of Macau Development Foundation. This contribution consisted of a $25 million payment made in May 2011, and commitments for additional donations of $10 million each year for the calendar years 2012 through 2022 inclusive, for a total of $135 million. The amount reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income has been discounted using our then estimated borrowing rate over the time period of the remaining committed payments. Property charges and other for the three months ended June 30, 2011 also includes miscellaneous renovations and abandonments at our resorts.

In response to our evaluation of our resorts and the reactions of our guests, we continue to remodel and make enhancements at our resorts.

Other non-operating costs and expenses

Interest income was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. During 2012 and 2011, our short-term investment strategy has been to preserve capital while retaining sufficient liquidity. While the majority of our short-term investments were primarily in money market accounts and time deposits with a maturity of three months or less, beginning in April 2011, we have invested in certain corporate bond securities and commercial paper which contributed to the increase in interest income.

Interest expense was $73.9 million, net of capitalized interest of $0.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $58.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. No interest was capitalized during the three months ended June 30, 2011. Our interest expense increased compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the issuance of the $1.94 billion Redemption Note by Wynn Resorts, and the Wynn Las Vegas $900 million 5 ³/₈% first mortgage notes in March 2012, offset by the reduction of $370.9 million in Wynn Las Vegas term loan borrowings, all as described in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 9 – “Long-Term Debt”.

Changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps are recorded as an increase (or decrease) in swap fair value in each period. We recorded a gain of $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, resulting from the increase in the fair value of our interest rate swaps during the three months ended June 30, 2012. In June 2012, we terminated the Wynn Las Vegas interest rate swap for a payment of $2.4 million and the Wynn Macau

33

interest rate swap matured, leaving no outstanding interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2012. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a gain of $3.1 million resulting from the increase in the fair value of interest rate swaps between March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011. For further information on our interest rate swaps, see Item 3 – “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a tax benefit of $4.7 million and tax expense of $5.2 million, respectively. Our income tax benefit is primarily related to a decrease in our deferred tax liabilities reduced by foreign taxes assessable on the dividends of Wynn Macau, S.A. and foreign tax provisions related to our international marketing offices. Since June 30, 2010, we have no longer considered our portion of the tax earnings and profits of Wynn Macau, Limited to be permanently invested. No additional U.S. tax provision has been made with respect to amounts not considered permanently invested as we anticipate that U.S. foreign tax credits should be sufficient to eliminate any U.S. tax provision relating to repatriation. The Company has not provided deferred U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on temporary differences as these amounts are permanently reinvested. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized income tax benefits related to excess tax deductions associated with stock compensation costs of $0.6 million.

Wynn Macau, S.A. has received an exemption from Macau’s 12% Complementary Tax on casino gaming profits through December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company was exempted from the payment of $24.2 million and $13.3 million in such taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our non-gaming profits remain subject to the Macau Complementary Tax and casino winnings remain subject to the Macau Special Gaming tax and other levies together totaling 39% in accordance with our concession agreement.

In April 2012, we reached an agreement with the Appellate division of the IRS regarding issues raised during the examination of our 2006 through 2009 U.S. income tax returns. The issues for consideration by the Appellate division were temporary differences related to the treatment of discounts extended to certain Las Vegas casino customers wagering on credit, the deduction of certain costs incurred during the development and construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas and the appropriate tax depreciation recovery periods applicable to certain assets. The settlement with the Appellate division does not impact our unrecognized tax benefits. The settlement of the 2006 through 2009 examination issues resulted in a cash tax payment of $1.3 million and the utilization of $3.1 million and $0.9 million in foreign tax credit and general business credit carryforwards, respectively.

In July 2012, the Macau Finance Bureau commenced an examination of the 2008 Macau income tax return of Wynn Macau, S.A. Since the examination is in its initial stages, we are unable to determine if it will conclude within the next 12 months. We believe that our liability for uncertain tax positions is adequate with respect to the 2008 examination year.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests

In October 2009, Wynn Macau, Limited, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary and the developer, owner and operator of Wynn Macau, listed its ordinary shares of common stock on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Wynn Macau, Limited sold 1,437,500,000 shares (27.7%) of its common stock through an initial public offering. We recorded net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $61.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $33.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income from Wynn Macau, Limited during each quarter.

Financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Revenues

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012, were comprised of $2,002.7 million in casino revenues (78% of total net revenues) and $564 million of net non-casino revenues (22% of total net revenues). Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011, are comprised of $2,088.3 million in casino revenues (79.5% of total net revenues) and $539.3 million of net non-casino revenues (20.5% of total net revenues).

34

Casino revenues are comprised of the net win from our table games and slot machine operations. Casino revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012, of $2,002.7 million represents a $85.6 million (4.1%) decrease from casino revenues of $2,088.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our Las Vegas Operations experienced a $96.2 million (27.3%) decrease in casino revenues to $256.3 million, compared to the prior year due to a decrease in our table games win percentage (before discounts). Our table games win percentage decreased from 29.1% in 2011 to 19.2% in 2012. Our expected range is 21% to 24%. Drop increased $61.4 million (5.3%) to $1,230.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $1,168.7 million in the prior year period. Slot machine handle at our Las Vegas Operations increased $22.4 million (1.6%) to $1,426.7 million compared to $1,404.3 million in the prior year period; however, slot machine win decreased $0.5 million (0.6%) to $83.5 million as a result of lower hold.

Our Macau Operations experienced a $10.6 million (0.6%) increase in casino revenues to $1,746.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the prior year period. We experienced an $11.7 million (1%) decrease in the VIP revenue segment and a $1,942 million (3.1%) increase in turnover. Our win as a percentage of turnover for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was 2.69%, which is below our expected range of 2.7% to 3.0%, and compares to 2.8% in the prior year period. In our general casino, table games win increased $32 million (8.4%) to $414 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The table games win percentage was 30%, which is above the expected range of 26% to 28% and the 27.8% experienced for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Drop increased $6.4 million (0.5%) to $1,379 million despite an 11% decrease in the number of table games when compared to the prior year period. Slot machine handle declined $340.4 million (11.5%) to $2,627 million and slot win declined $11.1 million (7.5%) to $136.9 million primarily due to increased competition in the premium segment. In addition, we removed 99 machines from the gaming floor compared to the prior year period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, room revenues were $242.4 million, an increase of $7.0 million (3.0%) compared to prior year period room revenue of $235.4 million. Room revenue at our Las Vegas Operations increased approximately $4.5 million (2.5%) compared to the prior year period. In Las Vegas, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we experienced an increase in room rates compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, but this increase in rate was accompanied by a decrease in occupancy rate of 5 percentage points. ADR at our Las Vegas Operations has increased as we adjusted rates in an effort to attract customers who would take advantage of all aspects of our resort. Room revenue at our Macau Operations increased $2.5 million (4.4%) due to an increase in occupancy and in the average daily room rate, both compared to the prior year period.

Other non-casino revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011, included food and beverage revenues of $276.7 million, retail revenues of $124.2 million, entertainment revenues of $39.7 million, and other revenues from outlets such as the spa and salon, of $37.5 million. Food and beverage revenues increased primarily due to the strength of our beach club and

35

nightclub business at our Las Vegas Operations. Retail revenues at our Macau Operations increased $6.9 million, while retail revenues at our Las Vegas Operations decreased $1.5 million. The increase at Wynn Macau is due to strong same store sales growth and new stores. Retail revenues at our Las Vegas operations decreased as we reconfigured the Encore retail area and are in the process of rebranding several retail outlets. Entertainment revenues decreased over the prior year period primarily due to a loss of revenues from the Sinatra “Dance with Me” show, which ended its run in Las Vegas on April 23, 2011.

Departmental, Administrative and Other Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $1,320.3 million, room expenses of $63.2 million, food and beverage expenses of $154.9 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $97.8 million. Also included are general and administrative expenses of $205.7 million and $0.8 million charged as a provision for doubtful accounts receivable. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, departmental expenses included casino expenses of $1,308.9 million, room expenses of $62.5 million, food and beverage expenses of $141 million, and entertainment, retail and other expenses of $110.4 million. Also included for the six months ended June 30, 2011, are general and administrative expenses of $179.6 million and $13.9 million charged as a provision for doubtful accounts receivable. Casino expenses have increased for the six months ended June 30, 2012, over the prior year period due primarily to an increase in casino payroll expenses at our Macau Operations. Food and beverage expenses increased over the prior year period primarily due to additional nightclub promotional costs in Las Vegas. The decrease in entertainment, retail and other expenses was driven by the conversion of certain owned retail stores to leased outlets in Macau resulting in lower cost of sales. General and administrative expense increased primarily due to legal and other costs incurred related to the share redemption and litigation with a former stockholder, combined with pay rate increases. The provision for doubtful accounts decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as we recorded an adjustment to our reserve estimates for casino accounts receivable based on the results of historical collection patterns and current collection trends.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was $185.9 million compared to $203.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily due to assets with a 5-year life at Wynn Macau being fully depreciated as of September 2011.

During the construction of our properties, costs incurred in the construction of the buildings, improvements to land and the purchases of assets for use in operations were capitalized. Once these properties opened, their assets were placed into service and we began recognizing the associated depreciation expense. Depreciation expenses will continue throughout the estimated useful lives of these assets. In addition, we continually evaluate the useful life of our property and equipment, intangibles and other assets and adjust them when warranted.

The maximum useful life of assets at Wynn Macau is the remaining life of the gaming concession or land concession, which currently expire in June 2022 and August 2029, respectively. Consequently, depreciation related to Wynn Macau is charged on an accelerated basis when compared to our Las Vegas Operations.

Property charges and other

Property charges and other for the six months ended June 30, 2012, were $13.8 million compared to $114.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, property charges and other related primarily to miscellaneous renovations and abandonments at our resorts. Property charges and other for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a charge of $107.5 million reflecting the present value of a charitable contribution made by Wynn Macau to the University of Macau Development Foundation. This contribution consists of a $25 million payment made in May 2011, and a commitment for additional donations of $10 million each year for the calendar years 2012 through 2022 inclusive, for a total of $135 million. The amount reflected in our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income has been discounted using our

36

then estimated borrowing rate over the time period of the remaining committed payments. Property charges and other for the six months ended June 30, 2011 also include the write off of certain costs related to a show that ended its run in Las Vegas and miscellaneous renovations and abandonments at our resorts.

In response to our evaluation of our resorts and the reactions of our guests, we continue to remodel and make enhancements at our resorts.

Other non-operating costs and expenses

Interest income was $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. During 2012 and 2011, our short-term investment strategy has been to preserve capital while retaining sufficient liquidity. While the majority of our short-term investments were primarily in money market accounts and time deposits with a maturity of six months or less, beginning in April 2011, we have invested in certain corporate bond securities and commercial paper which contributed to the increase in interest income.

Interest expense was $135.9 million, net of capitalized interest of $0.5 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $116.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. No interest was capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Our interest expense increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to the issuance of the $1.94 billion Redemption Note by Wynn Resorts, and the Wynn Las Vegas $900 million 5 ³/₈% first mortgage notes in March 2012, offset by the reduction of $370.9 million in Wynn Las Vegas term loan borrowings, all as described in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 9 – “Long-Term Debt”.

Changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps and any applicable termination payments are recorded as an increase (or decrease) in swap fair value in each period. We recorded a gain of $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, resulting from the increase in the fair value of our interest rate swaps during the six months ended June 30, 2012. In June 2012, we terminated the Wynn Las Vegas interest rate swap for a payment of $2.4 million and the Wynn Macau interest rate swap matured. As of June 30, 2012, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a gain of $7.4 million resulting from the increase in the fair value of interest rate swaps between December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011. For further information on our interest rate swaps, see Item 3 – “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas entered into an eighth amendment to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement”). In connection with this amendment Wynn Las Vegas prepaid all term loans under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, terminated all of its revolving credit commitments that were due to expire in 2013, and terminated all but $100 million of its revolving credit commitments expiring in 2015. In connection with this transaction, we expensed deferred financing fees of $4.8 million.

Income Taxes

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a tax benefit of $4.9 million and tax expense of $7.3 million, respectively. Our income tax benefit is primarily related to a decrease in our deferred tax liabilities reduced by foreign taxes assessable on the dividends of Wynn Macau, S.A. and foreign tax provisions related to our international marketing offices. Since June 30, 2010, we have no longer considered our portion of the tax earnings and profits of Wynn Macau, Limited to be permanently invested. No additional U.S. tax provision has been made with respect to amounts not considered permanently invested as we anticipate that U.S. foreign tax credits should be sufficient to eliminate any U.S. tax provision relating to repatriation. The Company has not provided deferred U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on temporary differences as these amounts are permanently reinvested. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized income tax benefits related to excess tax deductions associated with stock compensation costs of $1.1 million.

37

Wynn Macau, S.A. has received an exemption from Macau’s 12% Complementary Tax on casino gaming profits through December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company was exempted from the payment of $46.6 million and $34.5 million in such taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our non-gaming profits remain subject to the Macau Complementary Tax and casino winnings remain subject to the Macau Special Gaming tax and other levies together totaling 39% in accordance with our concession agreement.

In April 2012, we reached an agreement with the Appellate division of the IRS regarding issues raised during the examination of our 2006 through 2009 U.S. income tax returns. The issues for consideration by the Appellate division were temporary differences related to the treatment of discounts extended to certain Las Vegas casino customers wagering on credit, the deduction of certain costs incurred during the development and construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas and the appropriate tax depreciation recovery periods applicable to certain assets. The settlement with the Appellate division does not impact our unrecognized tax benefits. The settlement of the 2006 through 2009 examination issues resulted in a cash tax payment of $1.3 million and the utilization of $3.1 million and $0.9 million in foreign tax credit and general business credit carryforwards, respectively.

In July 2012, the Macau Finance Bureau commenced an examination of the 2008 Macau income tax return of Wynn Macau, S.A. Since the examination is in its initial stages, we are unable to determine if it will conclude within the next 12 months. We believe that our liability for uncertain tax positions is adequate with respect to the 2008 examination year.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests

In October 2009, Wynn Macau, Limited, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary and the developer, owner and operator of Wynn Macau, listed its ordinary shares of common stock on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Wynn Macau, Limited sold 1,437,500,000 shares (27.7%) of its common stock through an initial public offering. We recorded net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $119.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $85.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income from Wynn Macau, Limited during each period.

Adjusted Property EBITDA

We use adjusted property EBITDA to manage the operating results of our segments. Adjusted property EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, corporate expenses, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expenses, and includes equity in income from unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because we believe that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. We use adjusted property EBITDA as a measure of the operating performance of our segments and to compare the operating performance of our properties with those of our competitors. We also present adjusted property 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In order to view the operations of their casinos on a more stand-alone basis, gaming companies, including us, have historically excluded from their EBITDA calculations pre-opening expenses, property charges and corporate expenses that do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, adjusted property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of our 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 property EBITDA does not include depreciation or interest expense and therefore does not reflect current or future capital expenditures or the cost of capital. We have 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 property EBITDA. Also, our calculation of adjusted property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

38

The following table summarizes adjusted property EBITDA (amounts in thousands) for our Las Vegas and Macau Operations as reviewed by management and summarized in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 17 “Segment Information.” That footnote also presents a reconciliation of adjusted property EBITDA to net income.

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Las Vegas Operations	$	81,919	$	132,693	$	182,803	$	264,820
Macau Operations		302,210		314,348		591,983		587,179
	$	384,129	$	447,041	$	774,786	$	851,999

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, both our Las Vegas and Macau Operations were negatively impacted by a lower than normal table games win percentage as discussed above. Results were positively impacted by a credit taken to the provision for doubtful accounts as discussed above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our Las Vegas Operations was negatively impacted by a lower than normal table games win percentage as discussed above. Our Macau Operations adjusted property EBITDA benefited slightly from a higher than normal table games win percentage in the general casino and increased retail revenues. Results for the six months were positively impacted by a credit taken to the provision for doubtful accounts as discussed above. Refer to the discussions above regarding the specific details of our results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow from Operations

Our operating cash flows primarily consist of our operating income generated by our Las Vegas and Macau operations (excluding depreciation and other non-cash charges), interest paid, and changes in working capital accounts such as receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, and payables. Our table games play both in Macau and Las Vegas is a mix of cash play and credit play, while our slot machine play is conducted primarily on a cash basis. A significant portion of our table games revenue is attributable to the play of a limited number of premium international customers that gamble on credit. The ability to collect these gaming receivables may impact our operating cash flow for the period. Our rooms, food and beverage, and entertainment, retail, and other revenue is conducted primarily on a cash basis or as a trade receivable. Accordingly, operating cash flows will be impacted by changes in operating income and accounts receivables.

Net cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, was $660.8 million compared to $831 million provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash flow from operations decreased due to lower casino department profitability and changes in ordinary working capital accounts such as accrued expenses.

Capital Resources

At June 30, 2012, we had approximately $1.9 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $273.6 million of available for sale investments in foreign and domestic debt securities with maturities of up to 2 years. Our cash is available for operations, debt service and retirement, development activities, general corporate purposes and enhancements to our resorts. Of these amounts, Wynn Macau, Limited and its subsidiaries held $834.2 million and $65.9 million in cash and available for sale investments, respectively, of which we own 72.3%. If our portion of this cash was repatriated to the U.S. on June 30, 2012, approximately half of this amount would be subject to U.S. tax in the year of repatriation. Wynn Resorts, Limited, which is not a guarantor of the debt of its subsidiaries, held $327.1 million and $207.7 million of cash and available for sale investments, respectively. Wynn Las Vegas LLC held cash balances of $771.9 million.

39

In addition, as of June 30, 2012, we had approximately $84.2 million of availability under our Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. On June 27, 2012, the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility matured with a zero outstanding balance. Debt maturities for the remainder of 2012 are $93.2 million.

On July 31, 2012, Wynn Macau expanded its availability under the senior secured bank facility to US$2.3 billion equivalent, consisting of a US$750 million equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility and a US$1.55 billion equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility. Wynn Macau also has the ability to upsize the total senior secured facilities by an additional US$200 million pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. These borrowings will be used to refinance Wynn Macau’s existing indebtedness, to fund the design, development, construction and pre-opening expenses of Wynn Cotai and for general corporate purposes.

We believe that cash flow from operations, availability under our bank credit facilities and our existing cash balances will be adequate to satisfy our anticipated uses of capital during 2012. If any additional financing became necessary, we cannot provide assurance that future borrowings will be available.

Cash and cash equivalents include investments in money market funds, domestic and foreign bank time deposits and commercial paper, all with maturities of less than 90 days.

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures were approximately $115.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which included a one-time payment of $50 million in consideration of an unrelated third party’s relinquishment of certain rights in and to any future development on the Cotai land that we intend to use for constructing a full scale integrated casino resort. Capital expenditures also included site preparation costs for our Cotai land and various renovations at our resorts. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were approximately $51.3 million and related primarily to the room and suite remodel at Wynn Las Vegas.

Financing Activities

Las Vegas Operations

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. (together the “Issuers”) issued $900 million aggregate principal amount of 5  ³/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 12, 2012 (the “2022 Indenture). A portion of the proceeds were used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Wynn Las Vegas term loan facilities.

The 2022 Notes will mature on March 15, 2022 and bear interest at the rate of 5  ³/₈% per annum. The Issuers may redeem all or a portion of the 2022 Notes at any time on or after March 15, 2017, at a premium decreasing ratably to zero, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to March 15, 2015, the Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes with the net proceeds of one or more qualified equity contributions made to the Issuers by their parent, Wynn Resorts, Limited. The 2022 Notes are also subject to mandatory redemption requirements imposed by gaming laws and regulations of gaming authorities in Nevada.

The 2022 Notes are the Issuers’ senior secured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas credit facilities (the “Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities”) and the Issuers’ outstanding 7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”), the 7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (“7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes”) and the 7 ³/₄% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (the “7 ³/₄% 2020 Notes” and, together with the 2017 Notes and the 7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes, the “Existing Notes”). The 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis (with certain exceptions) by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Issuers’ existing and future assets, and, subject to gaming approval, a first priority pledge of Wynn Las Vegas’ equity interests, all of which is the same collateral that secures borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The first priority lien securing the 2022 Notes may be released in whole, or in part, under certain circumstances without the consent of the holders of the 2022 Notes, including if the liens on any such collateral are released either upon a termination of the credit facilities or otherwise.

40

The 2022 Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by all of the Issuers’ subsidiaries except Wynn Completion Guarantor, LLC (the “Guarantors”). The guarantees of the 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Guarantors’ assets, the same collateral that secures the guarantees under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The guarantees of the 2022 Notes will be released if the guarantees of our credit facilities are released.

The 2022 Indenture contains covenants limiting the Issuers’ and the Issuers’ restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: pay dividends or distributions or repurchase equity; incur additional debt; make investments; create liens on assets to secure debt; enter into transactions with affiliates; issue stock of, or member’s interests in, subsidiaries; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; engage in other businesses; merge or consolidate with another company; transfer and sell assets; issue disqualified stock; create dividend and other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; and designate restricted and unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions.

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC entered into an eighth amendment (“Amendment No. 8”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement”). Amendment No. 8 amends the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit the issuance of the 2022 Notes. Concurrently with the issuance of the 2022 Notes, Wynn Las Vegas has prepaid all term loans under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, has terminated all of its revolving credit commitments that were due to expire in 2013, and has terminated all but $100 million of its revolving credit commitments expiring in 2015. In connection with this transaction, Wynn Las Vegas expensed deferred financing costs of $4.8 million.

As of June 30, 2012, no amounts had been borrowed under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas had $15.8 million of outstanding letters of credit that reduce availability for borrowing under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas had availability of $84.2 million under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

Macau Operations

As of June 30, 2012, our Wynn Macau credit facilities, consisted of a $550 million equivalent fully-funded senior term loan facility (the “Wynn Macau Term Loan” or the “Wynn Macau Credit Facility”). On June 27, 2012, Wynn Macau’s $1 billion equivalent senior revolving credit facility (the “Wynn Macau Revolver”) in a combination of Hong Kong and U.S dollars matured with an outstanding balance of $0. The Wynn Macau Term Loan and the Wynn Macau Revolver are together referred to as the “Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.” During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we repaid $150.4 million of borrowings under the Wynn Macau Revolver. Beginning in September 2011, quarterly payments became due under the Wynn Macau Term Loan and during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we repaid $74.3 million. As of June 30, 2012, the Wynn Macau Term Loan was fully drawn, with total amounts outstanding of $403.5 million.

On July 31, 2012, Wynn Macau, amended and restated its credit facilities, dated September 14, 2004 (as so amended and restated, the “Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities”), and appointed Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch as intercreditor agent, facilities agent and security agent. The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities took effect on July 31, 2012 and expand availability under Wynn Macau’s senior secured bank facility to US$2.3 billion equivalent, consisting of a US$750 million equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility and a US$1.55 billion equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility. Wynn Macau also has the ability to upsize the total senior secured facilities by an additional US$200 million pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities, which consist of both Hong Kong Dollars and United States Dollar tranches, will be used to refinance Wynn Macau’s existing indebtedness, to fund the design, development, construction and pre-opening expenses of Wynn Cotai and for general corporate purposes.

The term loan facility matures in July 2018, and the revolving credit facility matures in July 2017. The principal amount of the term loan is required to be repaid in two equal installments in July 2017 and July 2018.

41

The senior secured facilities will bear interest for the first six months after closing at LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of 2.50% and thereafter will be subject to LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of between 1.75% to 2.50% based on Wynn Macau’s leverage ratio.

Customary fees and expenses were paid by Wynn Macau in connection with the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.

Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Palo Real Estate Company Limited (“Palo”), a subsidiary of Wynn Macau, S.A., and by certain subsidiaries of the Company that own equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A., and are secured by substantially all of the assets of Wynn Macau, S.A., the equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A. and, subject to certain post-closing matters, substantially all of the assets of Palo.

The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities contain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default customary for casino development financings in Macau.

Wynn Resorts Redemption Price Promissory Note

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, we redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” our articles of incorporation authorize redemption at “fair value” of the shares held by unsuitable persons. We engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares which are subject to the terms of an existing stockholder agreement. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, we issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note (the “Redemption Note”) to Aruze USA, Inc., a former stockholder and related party, in redemption of the shares. The Redemption Note has a principal amount of approximately $1.94 billion, matures on February 18, 2022 and bears interest at the rate of 2% per annum, payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, and without penalty or premium, prepay the whole or any portion of the principal or interest due under the Redemption Note. In no instance shall any payment obligation under the Redemption Note be accelerated except in the sole and absolute discretion of Wynn Resorts or as specifically mandated by law. The indebtedness evidenced by the Redemption Note is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Redemption Note, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future obligations of Wynn Resorts and any of its affiliates in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind or nature.

We recorded the fair value of the Redemption Note at its estimated present value of approximately $1.94 billion in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In determining this fair value, we considered the stated maturity of the Redemption Note, its stated interest rate, and the uncertainty of the related cash flows of the Redemption Note as well as the potential effects of the following: uncertainties surrounding the potential outcome and timing of pending litigation with Aruze USA, Inc. (see Note 15); the outcome of on-going investigations by the Nevada Gaming Control Board; and other potential legal and regulatory actions. In addition, in the furtherance of various future business objectives, we considered our ability, at our sole option, to prepay the Redemption Note at any time in accordance with its terms without penalty. Accordingly, we reasonably determined that the estimated life of the Redemption Note could be less than the contractual life of the Redemption Note. When considering the appropriate rate of interest to be used to determine fair value for accounting purposes and in light of the uncertainty in the timing of the cash flows, we used observable inputs from a range of trading values of financial instruments with lives similar to the estimated life of the Redemption Note. As a result of this analysis, we concluded the Redemption Note’s stated rate of 2% approximated a market rate.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any transactions with special purpose entities nor do we engage in any derivatives except for floating-for-fixed interest rate swaps described under Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. We do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity. At June 30, 2012, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $15.8 million.

42

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

In March 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC issued $900 million in 5  ³/₈% first mortgage notes due 2022, repaid all amounts outstanding under the term loan facilities totaling $370.9 million, reduced its revolving facilities to $100 million, and in February 2012, Wynn Resorts issued a $1.94 billion promissory note payable in 2022, all as described above. Additionally, in June 2012, the Wynn Macau Revolver matured with a zero outstanding balance, the Wynn Macau interest rate swap agreement matured, and the Wynn Las Vegas interest rate swap was terminated, all as described herein. In July 2012, Wynn Macau expanded its credit facilities to US$2.3 billion equivalent, consisting of a US$750 million equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility and a US$1.55 billion equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility. Other than those transactions, there have been no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2012 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, 2011.

Other Liquidity Matters

Wynn Resorts is a holding company and, as a result, our ability to pay dividends is highly dependent on our ability to obtain funds and our subsidiaries’ ability to provide funds to us. Restrictions imposed by our Wynn Las Vegas and Wynn Macau debt instruments significantly restrict our ability to pay dividends. Specifically, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries are restricted under the indentures governing the Existing Notes and the 2022 Notes from making certain “restricted payments” as defined in the indentures. These restricted payments include the payment 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 unless certain financial and non-financial criteria have been satisfied. The Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities contain similar restrictions. While the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities contains similar restrictions, Wynn Macau is currently in compliance with all requirements, namely satisfaction of its leverage ratio, which must be met in order to pay dividends and is presently able to pay dividends in accordance with the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.

Wynn Las Vegas, LLC intends to fund its operations and capital requirements from cash on hand, operating cash flow and availability under the Wynn Las Vegas Revolver. We cannot assure you however, that our Las Vegas Operations will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or the availability of additional indebtedness will be sufficient to enable us to service and repay Wynn Las Vegas, LLC’s indebtedness and to fund its other liquidity needs. Similarly, we expect that Wynn Macau will fund Wynn Macau, S.A.’s debt service obligations with existing cash, operating cash flow and availability under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. However, we cannot assure you that operating cash flows will be sufficient to do so. 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 or at all. Certain legal matters may also impact our liquidity. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 15-“Commitments and Contingencies.”

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 domestic and international markets. There can be no assurances regarding the business prospects with respect to any other opportunity. Any new development would require us to obtain additional financing. We may decide to conduct any such development through Wynn Resorts or through subsidiaries separate from the Las Vegas or Macau-related entities.

The Company’s articles of incorporation provide that, to the extent required by the gaming authority making the determination of unsuitability or to the extent the Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, that a person is likely to jeopardize the Company’s or any affiliate’s application for, receipt of, approval for, right to the use of, or entitlement to, any gaming license, shares of Wynn Resorts’ capital stock that are owned or controlled by an unsuitable person or its affiliates are subject to redemption by the Company. The redemption price may be paid in cash, by promissory note or both, as required by the applicable gaming authority and, if not, as we elect. Any promissory note that we issue to an unsuitable person or its affiliate in exchange for its shares could increase our debt to equity ratio and would increase our leverage ratio.

On February 18, 2012, the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts determined that Aruze USA, Inc., Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Kazuo Okada are “unsuitable” under the provision of our articles of incorporation and redeemed and canceled all of Aruze USA, Inc’s, 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, we issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note to Aruze USA, Inc. in redemption of the shares. For additional information on the redemption and the Redemption Price Promissory Note, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 15—“Commitments and Contingencies.”

Critical Accounting Policies

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, 2011. There has been no material change to these policies for the six months ended June  30, 2012.

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

One of our primary exposures 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.

Interest Rate Swap Information

In June 2012, the Wynn Macau swap matured and the Company terminated its Wynn Las Vegas swap for a payment of $2.4 million. Accordingly, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2012.

We had entered into floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements relating to certain of our floating-rate debt facilities. We measured the fair value of our interest rate swaps on a recurring basis. Changes in the fair values of these interest rate swaps for each reporting period recorded are recognized as an increase/(decrease) in swap fair value in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the swaps did not qualify for hedge accounting.

The fair value approximates the amount the Company would pay if these contracts were settled at the respective valuation dates. 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 and fluctuation between periods. We adjust this amount by applying a non-performance valuation, considering our creditworthiness or the creditworthiness of our counterparties at each settlement date as applicable. As of December 31, 2011, the interest rate swap liabilities of $7.3 million were included in other current accrued liabilities.

Wynn Las Vegas

We had one interest rate swap intended to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Under this swap agreement, we paid a fixed interest rate of 2.485% on borrowings of $250 million incurred under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR at the time of payment.

44

This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on $250 million of borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement at approximately 5.485%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $4.6 million.

Wynn Macau

We had one interest rate swap intended to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities which matured in June 2012. Under this swap agreement, we paid a fixed interest rate of 2.15% on borrowings of approximately HK$2.3 billion (approximately US$300 million) incurred under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable HIBOR at the time of payment. This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on HK$2.3 billion (approximately US$300 million) of borrowings under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities at approximately 3.4%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $2.7 million.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

As of June 30, 2012, approximately 92% of our long-term debt was based on fixed rates. Based on our borrowings as of June 30, 2012, an assumed 1% change in the variable rates would cause our annual interest cost to change by $4.6 million.

Foreign Currency Risks

The currency delineated in Wynn Macau’s concession agreement with the government of Macau is the Macau pataca. The Macau pataca, which is not a freely convertible currency, is linked to the Hong Kong dollar, and in many cases the two are used interchangeably in Macau. The Hong Kong dollar is linked to the U.S. dollar and the exchange rate between these two currencies has remained relatively stable over the past several years. However, the exchange linkages of the Hong Kong dollar and the Macau pataca, and the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, are subject to potential changes due to, among other things, changes in Chinese governmental policies and international economic and political developments.

If the Hong Kong dollar and the Macau pataca are not linked to the U.S. dollar in the future, severe fluctuations in the exchange rate for these currencies may result. We cannot assure you that the current rate of exchange fixed by the applicable monetary authorities for these currencies will remain at the same level.

Because many of Wynn Macau’s payment and expenditure obligations are in Macau patacas, in the event of unfavorable Macau pataca or Hong Kong dollar rate changes, Wynn Macau’s obligations, as denominated in U.S. dollars, would increase. In addition, because we expect that most of the revenues for any casino that Wynn Macau operates in Macau will be in Hong Kong dollars, we are subject to foreign exchange risk with respect to the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar. Also, because our Macau-related entities incur U.S. dollar-denominated debt, fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Macau pataca or the Hong Kong dollar, in relation to the U.S. dollar, could have adverse effects on Wynn Macau’s results of operations, financial condition and ability to service its debt.

As of June 30, 2012, in addition to Hong Kong dollars, Wynn Macau also holds other foreign currencies, primarily CNH (offshore renminbi).

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

45

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 were 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 were no changes in our 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 quarter to which this report relates that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are occasionally party to lawsuits. As with all litigation, no assurance can be provided as to the outcome of such matters and we note that litigation inherently involves significant costs. For information regarding the Company’s legal matters see Note 15 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

A description of our risk factors can be found in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Except as noted below, there were no material changes to those risk factors during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Our information technology and other systems are subject to cyber security risk including misappropriation of customer information or other breaches of information security.

We rely on information technology and other systems to maintain and transmit customer financial information, credit card settlements, credit card funds transmissions, mailing lists and reservations information. In addition, our financial and recordkeeping processes are run from one central location at a secured off site Network Operations Center. We have substantially completed the implementation of industry best practice systems that are designed to meet all requirements of the Payment Card Industry standards for data protection, however, our information and processes are exposed to the ever-changing threat of compromised security, in the form of a risk of potential breach, system failure, computer virus, or unauthorized or fraudulent use by customers, company employees, or employees of third party vendors. The steps we take to deter and mitigate these risks may not be successful, and any resulting compromise or loss of data or systems could adversely impact operations or regulatory compliance and could result in remedial expenses, fines, litigation, and loss of reputation, potentially impacting our financial results.

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

Dividend Restrictions

In November 2009, our Board of Directors approved the commencement of a regular quarterly cash dividend program. On July 17, 2012, the Company announced a dividend of $0.50 per share, payable on August 14, 2012 to stockholders of record as of July 31, 2012. On May 7, 2012, the Company announced a

46

dividend of $0.50 per share, payable on June 4, 2012 to stockholders of record as of May 21, 2012. Wynn Resorts is a holding company and, as a result, our ability to pay dividends is dependent on our ability to obtain funds and our subsidiaries’ ability to provide funds to us. Restrictions imposed by our subsidiaries’ debt instruments significantly restrict certain key subsidiaries holding a majority of our assets, including Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Macau, S.A. from making dividends or distributions to Wynn Resorts. Specifically, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries are restricted under the indentures governing the first mortgage notes from making certain “restricted payments” as defined in the indentures. These restricted payments include the payment of dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect holders of equity interests of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC. Restricted payments cannot be made unless certain financial and non-financial criteria have been satisfied. The Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement contains similar restrictions. While the Wynn Macau Credit Facility contains similar restrictions, Wynn Macau is currently in compliance with all requirements, namely satisfaction of its leverage ratio, which must be met in order to pay dividends and is presently able to pay dividends in accordance with the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In May 2012, the Company repurchased a total of 3,926 shares at an average price of $125.19 per share in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations on vested restricted stock. In addition, as previously disclosed, based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, we redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares for a Redemption Price Promissory Note of $1.94 billion. None of the foregoing shares were purchased as part of a publicly announced repurchase plan or program.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments with purchase maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents of $1.2 billion and $545 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, were invested in time deposits, money market accounts and commercial paper. In addition, the Company held cash in bank and cash on hand of approximately $773.2 million and $717.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Investment Securities

Investment securities consist of short-term and long-term investments in domestic and foreign corporate debt securities and commercial paper. The Company’s investment policy limits the amount of exposure to any one issuer with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. Management determines the appropriate classification (held-to-maturity/available-for-sale) of its securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company’s current investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income. Adjustments are made for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity computed under the effective interest method. Such amortization is included in interest income together with realized gains and losses and the stated interest on such securities.

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. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximately 81% and 84%, respectively, of the Company’s markers were due from customers residing outside the United States, 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 allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to reduce the Company’s receivables to their estimated 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. During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an adjustment to its reserve estimates for casino accounts receivable based on the results of historical collection patterns and current collection trends. This adjustment benefitted operating income by $30.9 million and net income attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited by $23.3 million (or $0.23 per share and $0.22 per share on a fully diluted basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively). This change in estimate was the primary factor that resulted in a $17.3 million credit to the provision for doubtful accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

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. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Hotel, food and beverage, entertainment and other operating revenues are recognized when services are performed. Entertainment, retail and other revenue includes rental income which is recognized on a time proportion basis over the lease term. Contingent rental income is recognized when the right to receive such rental income is established according to the lease agreements. Advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales are recorded as customer deposits until services are provided to the customer.

Revenues are recognized net of certain sales incentives which are required to be recorded as a reduction of revenue; consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions, and points earned in the player’s club loyalty program.

The retail value of accommodations, food and beverage, and other services furnished to guests without charge is included in gross revenues and then deducted as promotional allowances. The estimated cost of providing such promotional allowances is primarily included in casino expenses as follows (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Rooms	$	12,804	$	12,484	$	26,198	$	26,089

	$	42,470	$	40,779	$	88,976	$	85,605

Gaming Taxes

The Company is subject to taxes based on gross gaming revenue in the jurisdictions in which it operates, subject to applicable jurisdictional adjustments. These gaming taxes are an assessment on the Company’s gaming revenue and are recorded as an expense within the “Casino” line item in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. These taxes totaled approximately $443.1 million and $485.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These taxes totaled approximately $907.6 million and $910.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs the first time the advertising takes place and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, advertising costs totaled approximately $6.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively. These costs totaled approximately $11.3 million and $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities, such as cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities and interest rate swaps, at fair value on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These accounting standards establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table presents assets and liabilities carried at fair value (amounts in thousands):

			Fair Value Measurements Using:
	Total Carrying Value		Quoted Market Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

[1] "Adjusted Property EBITDA" is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, corporate expenses, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expenses and includes equity in income from unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted Property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted Property EBITDA as a measure 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 Property 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("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 expenses, property charges, corporate expenses and stock-based compensation, which do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted Property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company's 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 Property 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 Property EBITDA. Also, Wynn Resorts' calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Wynn Resorts, Limited, a Nevada corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Wynn Resorts” or the “Company”), was formed in June 2002 and completed an initial public offering of its common stock on October 25, 2002.

In June 2002, the Company’s indirect subsidiary, Wynn Resorts (Macau), S.A. (“Wynn Macau, S.A.”), entered into an agreement with the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Macau”), granting Wynn Macau, S.A. the right to construct and operate one or more casino gaming properties in Macau. Wynn Macau, S.A.’s first casino resort in Macau is hereinafter referred to as “Wynn Macau.”

The Company currently owns and operates casino hotel resort properties in Las Vegas, Nevada and Macau. In Las Vegas, Nevada, the Company owns Wynn Las Vegas, which opened on April 28, 2005 and was expanded with the opening of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas on December 22, 2008 (“Wynn Las Vegas” or the “Las Vegas Operations”). In Macau, the Company owns Wynn Macau, which opened on September 6, 2006 and was expanded with the opening of Encore at Wynn Macau on April 21, 2010 (“Wynn Macau” or the “Macau Operations”).

In October 2009, Wynn Macau, Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the developer, owner and operator of Wynn Macau, listed its ordinary shares of common stock on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. Through an initial public offering, including the over allotment, Wynn Macau, Limited sold 1,437,500,000 shares (27.7%) of its common stock.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the previous periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income.

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.

Wynn Macau

Cotai Development and Land Concession Contract. In September 2011, Palo Real Estate Company Limited and Wynn Resorts (Macau) S.A., each an indirect subsidiary of Wynn Macau, Limited, formally accepted the terms and conditions of a draft land concession contract from the Macau government for approximately 51 acres of land in the Cotai area of Macau. On May 2, 2012, the land concession contract was gazetted by the government of Macau evidencing the final step in the granting of the land concession. The Company anticipates constructing a full scale integrated resort containing a casino, approximately 2,000 rooms and suites, convention, retail, entertainment and food and beverage offerings on this land. The Company currently estimates the project budget to be in the range of $3.5 billion to $4.0 billion.

The initial term of the land concession contract is 25 years from May 2, 2012, and it may be renewed with government approval for successive periods. The total land premium payable, including interest as described in the land concession contract, is $193.4 million. An initial payment of $62.5 million was paid in December 2011, with eight additional semi-annual payments of approximately $16.4 million each (which includes interest at 5%) due beginning November 2012. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has recorded this obligation and related asset with $27.2 million included as a current liability and $90.2 million included as a long-term liability. The Company will also be required to make annual lease payments of $0.8 million during the resort construction period and annual payments of approximately $1.1 million once the development is completed.

Cotai Land Agreement. On May 10, 2012, the Company made a $50 million payment to an unrelated third party in consideration of that party’s relinquishment of certain rights in and to any future development on the Cotai land noted above. As of December 31, 2011, the Company accrued this $50 million obligation as a current liability.

Litigation

The Company’s affiliates are involved in litigation in addition to the actions noted below, arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Atlantic-Pacific Capital

On May 3, 2010, Atlantic-Pacific Capital, Inc. (“APC”) filed an arbitration demand with Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services regarding an agreement with the Company. The action concerns a claim for compensation of approximately $32 million pursuant to an agreement entered into between APC and the Company on or about March 30, 2008 whereby APC was engaged to raise equity capital for an investment vehicle sponsored by the Company. APC is seeking compensation unrelated to the investment vehicle. The Company has denied APC’s claims for compensation. The Company filed a Complaint for Damages and Declaratory Relief against APC in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada, on May 10, 2010. APC removed the action to the United States District Court, District of Nevada. In March 2011, the court denied APC’s motion to compel arbitration. APC has appealed. Management believes that APC’s claim against the Company is without merit and intends to defend this matter vigorously.

Determination of Unsuitability and Redemption of Aruze USA, Inc. and Affiliates and Related Matters

On February 18, 2012, Wynn Resorts’ Gaming Compliance Committee concluded a year-long investigation after receiving an independent report by Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan, LLP (the “Freeh Report”) detailing a pattern of misconduct by Aruze USA, Inc., at the time a stockholder of Wynn Resorts, Universal Entertainment Corporation, Aruze USA, Inc.’s parent company, and Kazuo Okada, the majority shareholder of Universal Entertainment Corporation, who is also a member of Wynn Resorts’ Board of Directors and was at the time a director of Wynn Macau, Limited. The factual record presented in the Freeh Report included evidence that Aruze USA, Inc., Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Okada had provided valuable items to certain foreign gaming officials who were responsible for regulating gaming in a jurisdiction in which entities controlled by Mr. Okada were developing a gaming resort. Mr. Okada has denied the impropriety of such conduct to members of the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts and Mr. Okada has refused to acknowledge or abide by Wynn Resorts’ anti-bribery policies.

Based on the Freeh Report, the Board of Directors of Wynn Resorts determined that Aruze USA, Inc., Universal Entertainment Corporation and Mr. Okada are “unsuitable” under Article VII of the Company’s articles of incorporation. The Board of Directors was unanimous (other than Mr. Okada) in its determination. The Board of Directors also requested that Mr. Okada resign as a director of Wynn Resorts and recommended that Mr. Okada be removed as a member of the board of directors of Wynn Macau, Limited. In addition, on February 18, 2012, Mr. Okada was removed from the board of directors of Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Wynn Resorts.

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, Wynn Resorts redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption at “fair value” of the shares held by unsuitable persons. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares held by Aruze USA, Inc. under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement (as defined below). Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, Wynn Resorts issued the Redemption Note to Aruze USA, Inc. in redemption of the shares. The Redemption Note has a principal amount of $1.94 billion, matures on February 18, 2022 and bears interest at the rate of 2% per annum, payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, and without penalty or premium, prepay the whole or any portion of the principal or interest due under the Redemption Note. In no instance shall any payment obligation under the Redemption Note be accelerated except in the sole and absolute discretion of Wynn Resorts or as specifically mandated by law. The indebtedness evidenced by the Redemption Note is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Redemption Note, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future obligations of Wynn Resorts or any of its affiliates in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind or nature.

On February 19, 2012, Wynn Resorts filed a complaint in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada against Mr. Okada, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation, companies controlled by Mr. Okada (the “Okada Parties”), alleging breaches of fiduciary duty and related claims. The Company is seeking compensatory and special damages as well as a declaration that it acted lawfully and in full compliance with its articles of incorporation, bylaws and other governing documents. On March 12, 2012, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation removed the action to the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. On that same date, Aruze USA, Inc. and Universal Entertainment Corporation filed an answer denying the claims and a counterclaim that purports to assert claims against the Company, each of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors (other than Mr. Okada) and a senior executive of the Company. Among other relief, the counterclaim seeks a declaration that the redemption of Aruze USA, Inc.’s shares was void, an injunction restoring Aruze USA, Inc.’s share ownership, damages in an unspecified amount and rescission of the Stockholders Agreement. The Company’s claim of February 19, 2012, was removed to federal court by the Okada Parties. On March 29, 2012, the Company filed a motion to remand the action to state court and to request an extension to answer. The motion to remand was granted and the Company’s request for related attorneys’ fees is fully briefed and pending. When the court rules on the pending fee motion, the case will be sent back to the state court, which has determined that this action will be coordinated with Mr. Okada’s inspection action (discussed below). The Okada Parties have filed a notice of intent to commence a separate federal securities action for the securities counterclaims previously asserted.

On June 19, 2012, Elaine Wynn responded to Aruze USA’s Counterclaim and asserted a cross claim against Steve Wynn and Kazuo Okada seeking a declaration that (1) any and all of Elaine Wynn’s duties under the January 2010 Stockholders Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”) by and among Aruze USA, Steve Wynn, and Elaine Wynn be discharged; (2) the Stockholders Agreement is subject to rescission and is rescinded; (3) the Stockholders Agreement is an unreasonable restraint on alienation in violation of public policy; and/or (4) the restrictions on sale of shares shall be construed as inapplicable to Elaine Wynn. By agreement of the parties, Mr. Wynn’s response to the cross claim is due within 14 days once the final order of remand is entered. The indentures for the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC 2022 Notes and Existing Notes (the “Indentures”) and the Credit Agreement provide that if Steve Wynn, together with certain related parties, in the aggregate beneficially owns a lesser percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company than are beneficially owned by any other person, a change of control will have occurred. If Elaine Wynn prevails in her cross claim, Steve Wynn would not beneficially own or control Elaine Wynn’s shares and a change in control may result under the Company’s debt documents. Under the Indentures, the occurrence of a change of control requires that the Company make an offer (unless the notes have been previously called for redemption) to each holder to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes purchased, if any, to the date of repurchase. Under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, the occurrence of these same events would constitute a change of control, which would be an event of default and would give the lenders the right to accelerate repayment, and would prevent Wynn Las Vegas from borrowing additional amounts. In addition, if more than $20,000,000 in borrowings are accelerated under the Credit Agreement, that would trigger an event of default under the Indentures.

On February 24, 2012, the board of directors of Wynn Macau, Limited removed Mr. Kazuo Okada from the board.

The Company provided the Freeh Report to applicable regulators and law enforcement agencies and intends to cooperate with any related investigation that such regulators or agencies may undertake. The conduct of the Okada Parties and any resulting regulatory investigations could have adverse consequences to the Company and its subsidiaries. A finding by regulatory authorities that Mr. Okada violated anti-corruption statutes and/or other laws or regulations applicable to persons affiliated with a gaming licensee on Company property and/or otherwise involved the Company in criminal or civil violations could result in actions by regulatory authorities against the Company. Relatedly, as described below, the Salt Lake Regional Office of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has commenced an informal inquiry into, and other regulators could pursue separate investigations into, the Company’s compliance with applicable laws arising from the allegations in the matters described above and in response to litigation filed by Mr. Okada suggesting improprieties in connection with the Company’s donation to the University of Macau. While the Company believes that it is in full compliance with all applicable laws, any such investigations could result in actions by regulators against the Company.

Litigation Commenced by Kazuo Okada and Related Matters

On January 11, 2012, Mr. Okada commenced litigation in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada seeking to compel the Company to produce information relating to a donation to the University of Macau, among other things.

In May 2011, Wynn Macau, a majority owned subsidiary of the Company, made a commitment to the University of Macau Development Foundation in support of the new Asia-Pacific Academy of Economics and Management. This contribution consists of a $25 million payment made in May 2011 and a commitment for additional donations of $10 million each year for the calendar years 2012 through 2022 inclusive. The pledge was consistent with the Company’s long-standing practice of providing philanthropic support for deserving institutions in the markets in which it operates. The pledge was made following an extensive analysis which concluded that the gift was made in accordance with all applicable laws. The pledge was considered by the boards of directors of both the Company and Wynn Macau, Limited and approved by 15 of the 16 directors who serve on those boards. The sole dissenting vote was cast by Mr. Okada whose stated objection was to the length of time over which the donation would occur, not its propriety.

On February 8, 2012, following Mr. Okada’s lawsuit, the Company received a letter from the Salt Lake Regional Office of the SEC requesting that, in connection with an informal inquiry by the SEC, the Company preserve information relating to the donation to the University of Macau, any donations by the Company to any other educational charitable institutions, including the University of Macau Development Foundation, and the Company’s casino or concession gaming licenses or renewals in Macau. The Company is cooperating with the Salt Lake Regional Office staff and intends to fully comply with the SEC’s request.

At a hearing on February 9, 2012, the Nevada state court held that, as a director of the Company, Mr. Okada had the right to make a reasonable inspection of the Company’s corporate books and records. Following the hearing, the Company released certain documents to Mr. Okada for his inspection. At a subsequent hearing on March 8, 2012, the court considered Mr. Okada’s request that the Company’s Board of Directors make additional documents available to him, and ruled that Mr. Okada was entitled to inspect two additional pages of documents. The Company promptly complied with the court’s ruling.

On May 25, 2012, Mr. Okada amended his petition to request inspection of additional records. The Nevada state court ordered Mr. Okada to file a supplemental brief addressing how his requests relate to his duties as a director of the Company, and the Company was to respond by filing a supplemental brief on the reasonableness of Mr. Okada’s requests. After Mr. Okada filed his supplemental brief, the Company moved to depose Mr. Okada prior to having to file its supplemental brief. At a hearing on June 28, 2012, the state court ordered Mr. Okada to appear for a deposition in Las Vegas, Nevada. The deposition is scheduled for September 2012.

Related litigation

Six derivative actions have been commenced against the Company and all members of its Board of Directors: four in the United States District Court, District of Nevada, and two in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, Nevada.

The four pending federal actions brought by the following plaintiffs have been consolidated: (1) The Louisiana Municipal Police Employees’ Retirement System (“LMPERS”), (2) Maryanne Solak, (3) Excavators Union Local 731 Welfare Fund, and (4) Boilermakers Lodge No. 154 Retirement Fund.

The plaintiffs in the federal derivative actions filed a consolidated complaint on August 6, 2012, asserting claims for (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) waste of corporate assets; (3) injunctive relief; and (4) unjust enrichment. The claims are against all Company directors, including Mr. Okada. The federal derivative plaintiffs claim that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties and wasted assets by (a) failing to ensure the Company’s officers and directors complied with federal and state laws and the Company’s Code of Conduct; (b) voting to allow the Company’s subsidiary to make the donation to the University of Macau; and (c) redeeming Aruze USA’s stock such that the Company incurs the debt associated with the redemption. The federal plaintiffs seek unspecified compensatory damages, restitution in the form of disgorgement, reformation of corporate governance procedures, an injunction against all future payments related to the donation/pledge, and all fees (attorneys, accountants, and experts) and costs. Per the court’s July 5, 2012 Case Management Order, the parties are to confer regarding a deadline for the Company and the directors to respond.

The two state court actions brought by the following plaintiffs have also been consolidated: (1) IBEW Local 98 Pension Fund and (2) Danny Hinson. Through a coordination of efforts by all parties, the directors and the Company (a nominal defendant) have been served in all of the actions.

The plaintiffs in the state derivative actions filed a consolidated complaint on July 20, 2012 asserting claims for (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) abuse of control; (3) gross mismanagement; and (4) unjust enrichment. The claims are against all Company directors, including Mr. Okada, as well as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who signs financial disclosures filed with the SEC. The state derivative plaintiffs claim that the individual defendants failed to disclose to its shareholders the investigation into, and the dispute with director Okada as well as the alleged potential violations of the FCPA related to, the University of Macau Development Foundation donation. Plaintiffs seek unspecified monetary damages (compensatory and punitive), disgorgement, reformation of corporate governance procedures, an order directing the Company to internally investigate the donation, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company and individual defendants will respond to the consolidated complaint by August 31, 2012.

The consolidated actions are in a preliminary stage and management has determined that based on proceedings to date, it is currently unable to determine the probability of the outcome of this matter or the range of reasonably possible loss, if any.

(1) “Adjusted Property EBITDA” is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening costs, property charges and other, corporate expenses, stock-based compensation, and other non-operating income and expenses and includes equity in income from unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted Property EBITDA is presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is widely used to measure the performance, and as a basis for valuation, of gaming companies. Management uses Adjusted Property EBITDA as a measure 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 Property 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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 expenses, property charges, corporate expenses and stock-based compensation, which do not relate to the management of specific casino properties. However, Adjusted Property EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company’s 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 Property 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 Property EBITDA. Also, Wynn Resorts’ calculation of Adjusted Property EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Interest Rate Swaps

Interest Rate Swaps

10. Interest Rate Swaps

In June 2012, the Wynn Macau swap matured and the Company terminated its Wynn Las Vegas swap for a payment of $2.4 million. Accordingly, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2012.

The Company had entered into floating-for-fixed interest rate swap arrangements in order to manage interest rate risk relating to certain of its debt facilities. These interest rate swap agreements modified the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of the Company’s floating-rate debt to a fixed rate. These interest rate swaps essentially fixed the interest rate at the percentages noted below; however, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps for each reporting period have been recorded as an increase/decrease in swap fair value in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, as the interest rate swaps do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The Company measured the fair value of its interest rate swaps on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. The Company utilized Level 2 inputs as described in Note 2 to determine fair value. The fair value approximates the amount the Company would pay if these contracts were settled at the respective valuation dates. 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 and fluctuation between periods. The fair value is adjusted to reflect the impact of credit ratings of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. These adjustments resulted in a reduction in the fair values as compared to their settlement values. As of December 31, 2011, the interest rate swap liabilities of $7.3 million were included in other current accrued liabilities.

Wynn Las Vegas Swap

The Company had one interest rate swap agreement to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Under this swap agreement, the Company paid a fixed interest rate of 2.485% on borrowings of $250 million incurred under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable LIBOR at the time of payment. This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on $250 million of borrowings at approximately 5.485%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $4.6 million.

Wynn Macau Swap

The Company had one interest rate swap agreement to hedge a portion of the underlying interest rate risk on borrowings under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities which matured in June 2012. Under this swap agreement, the Company paid a fixed interest rate of 2.15% on borrowings of HK$2.3 billion (approximately US$300 million) incurred under the Wynn Macau Credit Facilities in exchange for receipts on the same amount at a variable interest rate based on the applicable HIBOR at the time of payment. This interest rate swap fixed the interest rate on such borrowings at 3.4%. As of December 31, 2011, the liability fair value of this interest rate swap was approximately $2.7 million.

Related Party Share Redemption

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, the Company redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption of the shares held by unsuitable persons at a “fair value” redemption price. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares which are subject to the terms of an existing stockholder agreement. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the Company issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note to Aruze USA, Inc., a former stockholder and related party, in redemption of the shares.

Amounts Due to Officers

The Company periodically provides services to Stephen A. Wynn, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer (“Mr. Wynn”), and certain other officers and directors of the Company, including household employees, construction work and other personal services. Mr. Wynn and the other officers and directors have deposits with the Company to prepay any such items, which are replenished on an ongoing basis as needed. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Mr. Wynn and the other officers and directors had a net deposit balance with the Company of approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Villa Suite Lease

On March 18, 2010, Mr. Wynn and Wynn Las Vegas entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement of Lease (the “SW Lease”) for a villa suite to serve as Mr. Wynn’s personal residence. The SW Lease amends and restates a prior lease. The SW Lease was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. The term of the SW Lease commenced as of March 1, 2010 and runs concurrent with Mr. Wynn’s employment agreement with the Company; provided that either party may terminate on 90 days notice. Pursuant to the SW Lease, the rental value of the villa suite is treated as imputed income to Mr. Wynn, and is equal to the fair market value of the accommodations provided. Effective March 1, 2010, and for the first two years of the term of the SW Lease, the rental value was $503,831 per year. Effective March 1, 2012, the rental value is $440,000 per year based on the current fair market value as established by the Audit Committee of the Company in reliance upon the opinion of an independent third-party appraisal. The rental value for the villa suite will be re-determined every two years during the term of the lease by the Audit Committee, with the assistance of an independent third-party appraisal. Certain services for, and maintenance of, the villa suite are included in the rental, as well as the use of minimal warehouse space at Wynn Las Vegas.

The “Wynn” Surname Rights Agreement

On August 6, 2004, the Company entered into agreements with Mr. Wynn that confirm and clarify the Company’s rights to use the “Wynn” name and Mr. Wynn’s persona in connection with its casino resorts. Under the parties’ Surname Rights Agreement, Mr. Wynn granted the Company 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 the Company 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.

16. Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $4.7 million and tax expense of $5.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $4.9 million and tax expense of $7.3 million, respectively. The Company’s income tax benefit is primarily related to a decrease in deferred tax liabilities reduced by foreign taxes assessable on the dividends of Wynn Macau, S.A. and foreign tax provisions related to international marketing offices. Since June 30, 2010, the Company no longer considers its portion of the tax earnings and profits of Wynn Macau, Limited to be permanently invested. No additional U.S. tax provision has been made with respect to amounts not considered permanently invested as the Company anticipates that U.S. foreign tax credits should be sufficient to eliminate any U.S. tax provision relating to such repatriation. The Company has not provided deferred U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on temporary differences as these amounts are permanently reinvested. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized income tax benefits related to excess tax deductions associated with stock compensation costs of $1.1 million.

Wynn Macau, S.A. has received a 5-year exemption from Macau’s 12% Complementary Tax on casino gaming profits through December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company was exempted from the payment of $24.2 million and $13.3 million in such taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company was exempted from the payment of such taxes totaling $46.6 million and $34.5 million, respectively. The Company’s non-gaming profits remain subject to the Macau Complementary Tax and casino winnings remain subject to the Macau Special Gaming tax and other levies together totaling 39% in accordance with its concession agreement.

In April 2012, the Company reached an agreement with the Appellate division of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding issues raised during the examination of the 2006 through 2009 U.S. income tax returns. The issues for consideration by the Appellate division were temporary differences related to the treatment of discounts extended to certain Las Vegas casino customers wagering on credit, the deduction of certain costs incurred during the development and construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas and the appropriate tax depreciation recovery periods applicable to certain assets. The settlement with the Appellate division does not impact the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits. The settlement of the 2006 through 2009 examination issues resulted in a cash tax payment of $1.3 million and the utilization of $3.1 million and $0.9 million in foreign tax credit and general business credit carryforwards, respectively.

In July 2012, the Macau Finance Bureau commenced an examination of the 2008 Macau income tax return of Wynn Macau, S.A. Since the examination is in its initial stages, the Company is unable to determine if it will conclude within the next 12 months. The Company believes that its liability for uncertain tax positions is adequate with respect to the 2008 examination year.

For investments with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments, and (ii) it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell these investments prior to the recovery of the amortized cost. Accordingly, the Company has determined that no other-than-temporary impairments exist at the reporting date.

The Company obtains pricing information in determining the fair value of its available-for-sale securities from independent pricing vendors. Based on management’s inquiries, the pricing vendors use various pricing models consistent with what other market participants would use. The assumptions and inputs used by the pricing vendors are derived from market observable sources including: reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark curves, bids, offers and other market-related data. Each quarter, the Company validates the fair value pricing methodology to determine the fair value consistent with applicable accounting guidance and to confirm that the securities are classified properly in the fair value hierarchy. The Company compares the pricing received from its vendors to independent sources for the same or similar securities and no adjustment to such prices have resulted.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of these investment securities at June 30, 2012, by contractual maturity, are as follows (amounts in thousands):

5 ³/₈% Wynn Las Vegas First Mortgage Notes

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Las Vegas Capital Corp. (together the “Issuers”) issued $900 million aggregate principal amount of 5 ³/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 12, 2012 (the “2022 Indenture”). A portion of the proceeds were used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Wynn Las Vegas term loan facilities.

The 2022 Notes will mature on March 15, 2022 and bear interest at the rate of 5 ³/₈% per annum. The Issuers may redeem all or a portion of the 2022 Notes at any time on or after March 15, 2017, at a premium decreasing ratably to zero, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to March 15, 2015, the Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes with the net proceeds of one or more qualified equity contributions made to the Issuers by their parent, Wynn Resorts, Limited. If the Issuers undergo a change of control, they must offer to repurchase the 2022 Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If the Issuers sell certain assets or suffer an event of loss, and the Issuers do not use the sale or insurance proceeds for specified purposes, they must offer to repurchase the 2022 Notes at 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2022 Notes are also subject to mandatory redemption requirements imposed by gaming laws and regulations of gaming authorities in Nevada.

The 2022 Notes are the Issuers’ senior secured obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment with borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas revolving credit facilities (“Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities” as described below) and the Issuers’ outstanding 7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”), the 7 ⁷/₈% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (“7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes”) and the 7 ³/₄% First Mortgage Notes due 2020 (the “7 ³/₄% 2020 Notes” and, together with the 2017 Notes and the 7 ⁷/₈% 2020 Notes, the “Existing Notes”). The 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis (with certain exceptions) by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Issuers’ existing and future assets, and, subject to gaming approval, a first priority pledge of Wynn Las Vegas’ equity interests, all of which is the same collateral that secures borrowings under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The first priority lien securing the 2022 Notes may be released in whole, or in part, under certain circumstances without the consent of the holders of the 2022 Notes, including if the liens on any such collateral are released either upon a termination of the credit facilities or otherwise.

The 2022 Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by all of the Issuers’ subsidiaries except Wynn Completion Guarantor, LLC (the “Guarantors”). The guarantees of the 2022 Notes are secured on an equal and ratable basis by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Guarantors’ assets, the same collateral that secures the guarantees under the Wynn Las Vegas, LLC Credit Facilities and the Existing Notes. The guarantees of the 2022 Notes will be released if the guarantees of our credit facilities are released.

The 2022 Indenture contains covenants limiting the Issuers’ and the Issuers’ restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: pay dividends or distributions or repurchase equity; incur additional debt; make investments; create liens on assets to secure debt; enter into transactions with affiliates; issue stock of, or member’s interests in, subsidiaries; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; engage in other businesses; merge or consolidate with another company; transfer and sell assets; issue disqualified stock; create dividend and other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; and designate restricted and unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions.

The 2022 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities laws. Therefore, the Issuers may not offer or sell the notes within the United States to, or for the account or benefit of, any United States person unless the offer or sale would qualify for a registration exemption from the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Wynn Las Vegas Revolving Credit Facilities

On March 12, 2012, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC entered into an eighth amendment (“Amendment No. 8”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement”). Amendment No. 8 amends the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit the issuance of the 2022 Notes. Concurrently with the issuance of the 2022 Notes, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC has prepaid all term loans under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement, has terminated all of its revolving credit commitments that were due to expire in 2013, and has terminated all but $100 million of its revolving credit commitments expiring in 2015. In connection with this transaction, the Company expensed deferred financing fees of $4.8 million; all related to the Wynn Las Vegas term loan and revolving credit facilities.

As of June 30, 2012, no amounts had been borrowed under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC had $15.8 million of outstanding letters of credit that reduce availability for borrowing under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement. Wynn Las Vegas, LLC had availability of $84.2 million under the Wynn Las Vegas Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

Wynn Macau Credit Facilities

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company repaid $150.4 million of borrowings under the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility. On June 27, 2012, the Wynn Macau Senior Revolving Credit Facility matured with an outstanding balance of $0. Beginning in September 2011, quarterly payments became due under the Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facilities and during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company repaid $74.3 million. As of June 30, 2012, the Wynn Macau Senior Term Loan Facilities were fully drawn, with total amounts outstanding of $403.5 million.

On July 31, 2012, Wynn Macau, S.A., amended and restated its credit facilities, dated September 14, 2004 (as so amended and restated, the “Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities”), and appointed Bank of China Limited, Macau Branch as intercreditor agent, facilities agent and security agent. The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities and related agreements took effect on July 31, 2012 and expand availability under Wynn Macau S.A.’s senior secured bank facility to US$2.3 billion equivalent, consisting of a US$750 million equivalent fully funded senior secured term loan facility and a US$1.55 billion equivalent senior secured revolving credit facility. Wynn Macau, S.A. also has the ability to upsize the total senior secured facilities by an additional US$200 million pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities, which consist of both Hong Kong Dollars and United States Dollar tranches, will be used to refinance Wynn Macau S.A.’s existing indebtedness, to fund the design, development, construction and pre-opening expenses of Wynn Cotai and for general corporate purposes.

The term loan facility matures in July 2018, and the revolving credit facility matures in July 2017. The principal amount of the term loan is required to be repaid in two equal installments in July 2017 and July 2018. The senior secured facilities will bear interest for the first six months after closing at LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of 2.50% and thereafter will be subject to LIBOR or HIBOR plus a margin of between 1.75% to 2.50% based on Wynn Macau, S.A.’s leverage ratio.

Customary fees and expenses were paid by Wynn Macau, S.A. in connection with the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities.

Borrowings under the Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Palo Real Estate Company Limited (“Palo”), a subsidiary of Wynn Macau, S.A., and by certain subsidiaries of the Company that own equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A., and are secured by substantially all of the assets of Wynn Macau, S.A., the equity interests in Wynn Macau, S.A. and, subject to certain post-closing matters, substantially all of the assets of Palo.

The Amended Wynn Macau Credit Facilities contain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default customary for casino development financings in Macau.

Redemption Price Promissory Note

Based on the Board of Directors’ finding of “unsuitability,” on February 18, 2012, the Company redeemed and canceled Aruze USA, Inc.’s 24,549,222 shares of Wynn Resorts’ common stock. Following a finding of “unsuitability,” Wynn Resorts’ articles of incorporation authorize redemption of the shares held by unsuitable persons at a “fair value” redemption price. The Company engaged an independent financial advisor to assist in the fair value calculation and concluded that a discount to the then current trading price was appropriate because of, among other things, restrictions on most of the shares which are subject to the terms of an existing stockholder agreement. Pursuant to the articles of incorporation, the Company issued the Redemption Price Promissory Note to Aruze USA, Inc., a former stockholder and related party, in redemption of the shares. The Redemption Price Promissory Note (the “Redemption Note”) has a principal amount of $1.94 billion, matures on February 18, 2022 and bears interest at the rate of 2% per annum payable annually in arrears on each anniversary of the date of the Redemption Note. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, and without penalty or premium, prepay the whole or any portion of the principal or interest due under the Redemption Note. In no instance shall any payment obligation under the Redemption Note be accelerated except in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company or as specifically mandated by law. The indebtedness evidenced by the Redemption Note is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Redemption Note, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future obligations of Wynn Resorts and any of its affiliates in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind or nature.

The Company has recorded the fair value of the Redemption Note at its estimated present value of approximately $1.94 billion in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In determining this fair value, the Company considered the stated maturity of the Redemption Note, its stated interest rate, and the uncertainty of the related cash flows of the Redemption Note as well as the potential effects of the following: uncertainties surrounding the potential outcome and timing of pending litigation with Aruze USA, Inc. (see Note 15); the outcome of on-going investigations by the Nevada Gaming Control Board; and other potential legal and regulatory actions. In addition, in the furtherance of various future business objectives, the Company considered its ability, at its sole option, to prepay the Redemption Note at any time in accordance with its terms without penalty. Accordingly, the Company reasonably determined that the estimated life of the Redemption Note could be less than the contractual life of the Redemption Note. When considering the appropriate rate of interest to be used to determine fair value for accounting purposes and in light of the uncertainty in the timing of the cash flows, the Company used observable inputs from a range of trading values of financial instruments with lives similar to the estimated life of the Redemption Note. As a result of this analysis, the Company concluded the Redemption Note’s stated rate of 2% approximated a market rate.

Debt Covenant Compliance

As of June 30, 2012, management believes the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

The net book value of the Company’s outstanding first mortgage notes was approximately $3.1 billion and $2.2 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding first mortgage notes, based on recent trades (using level 2 inputs), was approximately $3.3 billion and $2.4 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The net book value of the Company’s other debt instruments, excluding the Redemption Price Promissory Note, was approximately $459.3 million and $1.1 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Company’s other debt instruments was approximately $455.2 million and $1 billion at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Redemption Price Promissory Note was approximately $1.94 billion at June 30, 2012.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2012

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments with purchase maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents of $1.2 billion and $545 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, were invested in time deposits, money market accounts and commercial paper. In addition, the Company held cash in bank and cash on hand of approximately $773.2 million and $717.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Investment Securities

Investment Securities

Investment securities consist of short-term and long-term investments in domestic and foreign corporate debt securities and commercial paper. The Company’s investment policy limits the amount of exposure to any one issuer with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. Management determines the appropriate classification (held-to-maturity/available-for-sale) of its securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company’s current investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in other comprehensive income. Adjustments are made for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity computed under the effective interest method. Such amortization is included in interest income together with realized gains and losses and the stated interest on such securities.

Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk

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. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, approximately 81% and 84%, respectively, of the Company’s markers were due from customers residing outside the United States, 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 allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained to reduce the Company’s receivables to their estimated 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. During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an adjustment to its reserve estimates for casino accounts receivable based on the results of historical collection patterns and current collection trends. This adjustment benefitted operating income by $30.9 million and net income attributable to Wynn Resorts, Limited by $23.3 million (or $0.23 per share and $0.22 per share on a fully diluted basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively). This change in estimate was the primary factor that resulted in a $17.3 million credit to the provision for doubtful accounts for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

Inventories

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

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. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Hotel, food and beverage, entertainment and other operating revenues are recognized when services are performed. Entertainment, retail and other revenue includes rental income which is recognized on a time proportion basis over the lease term. Contingent rental income is recognized when the right to receive such rental income is established according to the lease agreements. Advance deposits on rooms and advance ticket sales are recorded as customer deposits until services are provided to the customer.

Revenues are recognized net of certain sales incentives which are required to be recorded as a reduction of revenue; consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions, and points earned in the player’s club loyalty program.

The retail value of accommodations, food and beverage, and other services furnished to guests without charge is included in gross revenues and then deducted as promotional allowances. The estimated cost of providing such promotional allowances is primarily included in casino expenses as follows (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Rooms	$	12,804	$	12,484	$	26,198	$	26,089
Food and beverage		25,689		24,453		54,083		51,195

	$	42,470	$	40,779	$	88,976	$	85,605

Gaming Taxes

Gaming Taxes

The Company is subject to taxes based on gross gaming revenue in the jurisdictions in which it operates, subject to applicable jurisdictional adjustments. These gaming taxes are an assessment on the Company’s gaming revenue and are recorded as an expense within the “Casino” line item in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. These taxes totaled approximately $443.1 million and $485.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These taxes totaled approximately $907.6 million and $910.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Advertising Costs

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs the first time the advertising takes place and such costs are included in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, advertising costs totaled approximately $6.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively. These costs totaled approximately $11.3 million and $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain of its financial assets and liabilities, such as cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities and interest rate swaps, at fair value on a recurring basis pursuant to accounting standards for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These accounting standards establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table presents assets and liabilities carried at fair value (amounts in thousands):

Earnings Per Share

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Wynn Resorts by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the addition of potentially dilutive securities, which for the Company include stock options and nonvested stock. The weighted average common shares outstanding decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, due to the redemption and cancellation of 24,549,222 common shares on February 18, 2012, from a former stockholder and related party as described in Notes 9 and 15.

The weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Weighted average common shares outstanding (used in calculation of basic earnings per share)		99,782		123,970		106,243		123,864
