Net income attributable to Las Vegas Sands Corp. was $419 millionb, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared with $275 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.

For the nine months, net revenues were $9.37 billion and net income attributable to the company was $1.23 billion, or $1.77 per diluted share.
Balance sheet activity was significant during the period. Total debt, including current maturities, rose to $15.77 billionc at September 30, 2025, from $13.75 billion at December 31, 2024, reflecting the May 2025 issuance of $1.50 billion of LVSC senior notes, the new 2025 Singapore Credit Facility, and a 2024 SCL Term Loan draw. Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents were $3.35 billion, and total stockholders' equity attributable to the company fell to $1.57 billion from $2.88 billion, largely due to $1.77 billion of share repurchases during the nine months.
Management reported that it was in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2025. The company continued to return capital, paying $0.25d per share quarterly dividends and repurchasing 39,487,824 shares for approximately $1.77 billion year to date. In October 2025 the board declared a $0.25 quarterly dividend and increased the share repurchase authorization back to $2.0 billion, extending the program to November 3, 2027.
The Singapore MBS Expansion Project, estimated at approximately $8.0 billion in total cost, is ongoing with an anticipated opening in January 2031. Management also disclosed it ceased pursuit of a New York casino license in April 2025 and recorded impairments tied to digital gaming activities.
