The Company
We are the leading developer, owner and operator of integrated resorts and casinos in Macao.
Macao is the largest gaming market in the world as measured by casino gaming revenue and is the
only location in China offering legalized casino gaming. Venetian Macao Limited, our
subsidiary, holds one of six concessions or subconcessions permitted by the Macao Government to
operate casinos or gaming areas in Macao.
We own The Venetian Macao, the Sands Macao and the Plaza Macao. We also own one of the
largest convention and exhibition halls in Asia, Macao’s largest entertainment venue, The
CotaiArena™, and one of three major high-speed ferry companies operating between Hong Kong and
Macao. Our luxury and mid-market retail malls feature over 380 shops with well-known retail brands,
as well as the Malo Clinic and Spa, one of Asia’s largest medical and beauty spas. As of June
30, 2009, our properties featured a combined 3,554 suites and hotel rooms, 1,098 table games, 3,631
slot machines, over 60 different restaurants and food outlets, as well as other integrated resort
amenities.
Our business strategy is to develop Cotai and to leverage our integrated resort business
model to create Asia’s premier gaming, leisure and convention destination. Our ultimate plans for
Cotai include five interconnected integrated resorts, which leverage a wide range of branded hotel
and resort offerings to attract different segments of the market. When complete, we expect our
Cotai Strip development to contain over 20,000 hotel rooms, approximately 1.6 million square feet
of MICE space, over 2.0 million square feet of retail malls, six theaters and other amenities.
We are a subsidiary of Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS), the parent company of The Venetian
Resort-Hotel-Casino and The Palazzo Resort-Hotel-Casino, Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las
Vegas and Sands Bethworks, Pennsylvania’s first gaming resort destination in the United States.
