Summary
Summary of the 10-K filed February 6, 2026. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS) reported net revenues of $13.02 billiona for 2025, up 15.2% from $11.30 billion in 2024, with operating income of $2.82 billion and net income of $1.87 billion ($1.63 billion attributable to LVSC).
Growth was driven by Marina Bay Sands, where adjusted property EBITDA rose $870 millionb (42.4%) to $2.92 billion, while Macao adjusted property EBITDA was essentially flat, declining $17 million (0.7%) to $2.31 billion. Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA increased 19.5% to $5.23 billion. Cash generation remained solid, with operating cash flow of $3.02 billion, though it was reduced by an $848 million payment for the Marina Bay Sands Additional Gaming Area.
The company returned significant capital: $2.22 billionc in share repurchases, $833 million in dividends and noncontrolling interest payments, and $483 million to acquire additional SCL shares. Total debt rose to $15.78 billion, funded largely by a new $2.92 billion Singapore term loan, a $1.50 billion LVSC senior notes issuance, and a $1.64 billion SCL term loan. Unrestricted cash was $3.84 billion at year-end, and the Board raised the quarterly dividend to $0.30 per share for 2026.
The filing also highlights ongoing development spending: the Marina Bay Sands expansion has an estimated total cost of about $8.0 billiond, with about $2.5 billion incurred as of December 31, 2025, and an anticipated opening in January 2031. Investors should note concentration risk, since substantially all cash flow comes from Macao and Singapore, the Macao concession expires December 31, 2032, and the company recorded $247 million in losses on asset disposal or impairment, including the abandonment of its New York casino pursuit.

05—Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How did the company perform in 2025?
Net revenues increased 15.2% to $13.02 billion and operating income rose 17.3% to $2.82 billion. Net income attributable to Las Vegas Sands Corp. was $1.63 billion, or $2.35 per diluted share, compared with $1.96 per diluted share in 2024.
Why did Marina Bay Sands outperform Macao?
Marina Bay Sands casino revenues rose 42.2% to $4.21 billion, driven by higher win and hold percentages and table game volumes, along with new suites and rooms. Macao adjusted property EBITDA was nearly flat, as higher sales and marketing and payroll costs offset revenue gains in a competitive environment.
How is the company funding its development and shareholder returns?
In 2025 the company raised $6.78 billion in debt proceeds, including a $2.92 billion Singapore term loan, a $1.50 billion LVSC senior notes offering, and a $1.64 billion SCL term loan. Management stated it believes it has sufficient liquidity, with $3.67 billion available under its U.S., SCL and Singapore revolving facilities as of the filing date.
What are the key regulatory risks?
The Macao gaming concession expires December 31, 2032, and the Macao government has an option to redeem it starting January 1, 2029, with compensation that may be inadequate. The Singapore development agreements and casino license also carry termination and public-interest risks, and the Macao tax exemption and shareholder dividend tax agreement run only through December 31, 2027 and 2025 respectively, with an extension requested but not assured.
What is the status of the Marina Bay Sands expansion?
The MBS Expansion Project is estimated to cost about $8.0 billion, with about $2.5 billion incurred as of December 31, 2025. Construction began in May 2025, the company expects completion by June 2030 with opening in January 2031, and any extension beyond the July 8, 2029 deadline requires Singapore government approval.
