Beginning October 1st, Le Reve started performing ten times per week in our Wynn Theater. Steve Wynn, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Wynn Resorts commented, "Our property's performance in the past six months is a source of gratification for all of us, and all the credit goes to the employees of Wynn Las Vegas who have managed the challenge of opening that very special property and revealing the beginning of its extraordinary potential. We continue the intense planning of the development of our enormous real estate assembly in the center of Las Vegas and the preparation of Wynn Macau's opening. " Wynn Macau In June 2004, the Company broke ground on Wynn Macau, its destination casino resort in Macau, China. The first phase of the project will utilize approximately 11 of a total site area of 16 acres of land and includes 600 hotel rooms and suites, approximately 100,000 square feet of casino gaming space, seven restaurants, approximately 26,000 square feet of retail space, a spa, a salon, entertainment lounges and meeting facilities. We expect the first phase to open to the public in the third quarter of 2006. The second phase will include an additional 92,000 square feet of casino space, a restaurant, a theater, and a dramatic front feature attraction. The second phase will be built on the remaining five acres of the Wynn Macau site and will be integrated into the first phase of Wynn Macau. The second phase is expected to be completed and open to the public by the third quarter of 2007. Construction of Wynn Macau is progressing on schedule and within budget. The building is topped off and the curtain wall and the placement of roof steel are nearly complete. Work relating to excavation and footings of the second phase has begun, and that work is progressing as planned. As of September 30, 2005, the Company had funded approximately $308.6 million of a total project budget of approximately $1.1 billion, with approximately $777.0 million to be spent to complete Wynn Macau. On September 14, 2005, the Company announced the completion of an increase and amendment of Wynn Resorts (Macau) SA's senior secured financing to include financing for the second phase of Wynn Macau. The senior secured financing for the project was increased from US$397 to US$764 million. The new financing is comprised of US$729 million of term loan facilities, a HK$156 million (approximately US$20 million) term loan facility, and a HK$117 million (approximately US$15 million) revolving credit facility. The term loan facilities mature in September 2011, with the revolving credit facility maturing in September 2007. Encore at Wynn Las Vegas We continue to evaluate Encore as part of our overall master plan for the Company's substantial real estate holdings on the Las Vegas Strip. As a result, the Company has refined Encore to feature an approximately 2,000-room hotel tower consisting of approximately 150 suites and 1,850 guest rooms, fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas. Encore also is expected to include additional casino space, entertainment venues, restaurants, nightclubs, swimming pools, a spa and salon, convention and meeting space, and retail outlets. Once the Company has finalized the budget and plans for Encore, it will seek the necessary approvals from its Board of Directors and lenders. The Company expects Encore to open in the second half of 2008. Other Factors Affecting Earnings Interest expense, net of $3.3 million in capitalized interest, was $34.9 million for the third quarter of 2005. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $37.9 million, and pre-opening expenses, primarily related to Wynn Macau, totaled $7.1 million during the quarter. Corporate expense in the period was $8.5 million. Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures Total cash balance at the end of the quarter was $989.9 million, including unrestricted cash balances of $552.9 million and restricted cash balances of $437.0 million.

Forward-looking Statements This release contains forward-looking statements regarding operating trends and future results of operations. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, competition in the casino/hotel and resorts industries, the Company's brief operating history, the Company's dependence on existing management, levels of travel, leisure and casino spending, general domestic or international economic conditions, and changes in gaming laws or regulations. Additional information concerning potential factors that could affect the Company's financial results are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the Company's other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update its forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Non-GAAP financial measures: (1) Adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS are presented exclusively as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that these financial measures are widely used to measure the performance, and as a principal basis for valuation, of gaming companies. These measure are considered by many to be a better indicator on which to base expectations of future results than income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Reconciliations of net loss and net loss per share to adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS per share are included in the financial schedules accompanying this release. (2) Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pre-opening, property charges and corporate expenses, losses on sales of assets, losses from incidental operations, and other non operating income and expenses. Management uses adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of the operating performance of Wynn Las Vegas and to compare the operating performance of its properties with those of its competitors. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, such as operating income, net income, or net cash provided by operating activities. Wynn Resorts' calculation of adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation methods used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. The company has included schedules in the tables that accompany this release that: (1) reconcile EBITDA to operating income and net income; and (2) reconcile net income to adjusted net income.
