SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events, including our future operating results and conditions, our prospects and our future financial performance and condition, all of which are largely based on our current expectations and projections. Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performances or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry, and have a highly leveraged business model. Moreover, we operate in Macau’s gaming sector, a market with intense competition, and therefore new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) the recent global pandemic of COVID-19, caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus, and the continued impact of its consequences on our business, our industry and the global economy, (ii) growth of the gaming market and visitations in Macau, (iii) capital and credit market volatility, (iv) local and global economic conditions, (v) our anticipated growth strategies, (vi) gaming authority and other governmental approvals and regulations and (vii) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “aim,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this quarterly report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this quarterly report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION

Although we have certain expenses and revenues denominated in Patacas, our revenues and expenses are denominated predominantly in H.K. dollars and, in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, in U.S. dollars. The non-financial pages of this quarterly report include all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars at a rate of HK$7.7500 to US$1.00, unless otherwise noted.

The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since October 17, 1983, the H.K. dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of HK$7.80 to US$1.00. The market exchange rate has not deviated materially from the level of HK$7.80 to US$1.00 since the peg was first established. However, in May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority broadened the trading band from the original rate of HK$7.80 per U.S. dollar to a rate range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the link at that rate, and, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.

The noon buying rate on September 30, 2020 in New York City for cable transfers in H.K. dollars for U.S. dollars, provided in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was HK$7.7500 to US$1.00. On November 20, 2020, the noon buying rate was HK$7.7525 to US$1.00. We make no representation that any H.K. dollar or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or H.K. dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 to MOP1.03. All translations from Pataca to U.S. dollar in the non-financial pages of this quarterly report were made at the exchange rate of MOP7.9825 to US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Pataca.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in connection with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected in the future. Certain statements in this “Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

Studio City is a world-class integrated resort located in Cotai, Macau and its principal operating activities are the provision of gaming related services and the hospitality business in Macau. In the third quarter of 2020, excluding gaming tables and gaming machines that were not in operation during the three months ended September 30, 2020 due to government-mandated closures or social distancing measures in relation to the COVID-19 outbreak, Studio City operated an average of approximately 291 gaming tables and 595 gaming machines. The mass market focus of Studio City Casino is currently complemented with junket and premium direct VIP rolling chip operations, which include up to 45 tables authorized for VIP rolling chip operations. Studio City’s cinematically-themed integrated resort is designed to attract a wide range of customers by providing highly differentiated non-gaming attractions, including the world’s first figure-8 Ferris wheel, a 4-D Batman flight simulator, an exclusive night club and a 5,000-seat live performance arena. Studio City features approximately 1,600 luxury hotel rooms, diverse food and beverage establishments and complementary retail space. Studio City was named Casino/Integrated Resort of the Year in 2016 by the International Gaming Awards.

Studio City is strategically located in Cotai as one of the few dedicated Cotai hotel-casino resort stops on the Macau Light Rapid Transit Line, with an access bridge leading to Studio City.

Studio City Casino is operated by the Gaming Operator, one of the subsidiaries of Melco and a holder of a gaming subconcession, and we operate the non-gaming businesses of Studio City.

Studio City sits within a ring-fenced credit group separate from its shareholders and Studio City’s debt obligations are not guaranteed by its shareholders. In particular, Melco is not a guarantor under the 2021 Studio City Senior Secured Credit Facility, the 2024 Notes, the 2025 Notes or the 2028 Notes. As such, SCI and its shareholders are not contractually required to provide any additional financial support to Studio City with respect to the Studio City debt obligations.

Under our current plan for the remaining project, the remaining project is expected to consist of two hotel towers with approximately 900 rooms and suites and a gaming area. In addition, we currently envision the remaining project to also contain a waterpark with indoor and outdoor areas. Other non-gaming attractions expected to be part of the remaining project include MICE space, retail and food and beverage outlets and a cineplex. As of September 30, 2020, we incurred approximately US$195.0 million of aggregate costs relating to the development of our remaining project, primarily related to the initial design and planning costs. Based on our current plan for the remaining project, we currently expect a project budget of approximately US$1.25 billion to US$1.30 billion for the development of the remaining project (exclusive of any pre-opening costs and financing costs). Such development for the remaining project of Studio City may be funded through various sources, including cash on hand, operating free cash flow as well as debt and/or equity financing. Our ability to obtain any debt financing also depends on a number of factors beyond our control, including market conditions such as the higher prospect of a global recession and a severe contraction of liquidity in the global credit markets caused by the effect of the recent large-scale global COVID-19 pandemic and lenders’ perceptions of and demand for the debt financing for the remaining project of Studio City. There is no guarantee that we can secure the necessary additional capital investments, including any debt financing, required for the development of the remaining project of Studio City in a timely manner or at all.

11

In November 2019, we announced that the Macau government granted an extension of the development period under the Studio City land concession contract. Pursuant to such extension, the development period for the land of Studio City has been extended to May 31, 2022. Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, we estimated a construction period of approximately 32 months for the remaining project. With the disruptions from the COVID-19 outbreak, the construction period has been delayed and is expected to extend beyond the estimated 32 months and the current development period.

In the event that additional time is required to complete the development of the remaining project for Studio City, we will have to apply for an extension of the relevant development period which shall be subject to Macau government review and approval at its discretion. While the Macau government may grant extensions if we meet certain legal requirements and the application for the extension is made in accordance with the relevant rules and regulations, there can be no assurance that the Macau government will grant us any necessary extension of the development period or not exercise its rights to terminate the Studio City land concession. In the event that no further extension is granted or the Studio City land concession is terminated, we could lose all or substantially all of our investment in Studio City, including our interest in the land and building and may not be able to continue to operate Studio City as planned, which will materially and adversely affect our business and prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2019

Total operating revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were US$0.9 million, compared to total operating revenues of US$158.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in total operating revenues was due to the decrease in revenues from the provision of gaming related services and lower non-gaming revenues as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a significant decline in inbound tourism in the third quarter of 2020.

Net loss attributable to Studio City Finance Limited for the third quarter of 2020 was US$120.8 million, compared with net income attributable to Studio City Finance Limited of US$18.6 million in the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to the decrease in revenues from the provision of gaming related services and lower non-gaming revenues.

Studio City Casino generated gross gaming revenues of US$23.4 million and US$345.6 million for the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Studio City’s rolling chip volume was US$0.15 billion for the third quarter of 2020, versus US$2.77 billion in the third quarter of 2019. The rolling chip win rate was 3.41% in the third quarter of 2020, versus 2.71% in the third quarter of 2019. The expected rolling chip win rate range is 2.85% - 3.15%.

Mass market table games drop decreased to US$49.7 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared with US$880.6 million in the third quarter of 2019. The mass market table games hold percentage was 31.5% in the third quarter of 2020, compared to 28.4% in the third quarter of 2019.

Gaming machine handle for the third quarter of 2020 was US$99.2 million, compared with US$711.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. The gaming machine win rate was 2.7% in the third quarter of 2020, compared to 2.8% in the third quarter of 2019.

Revenues from the provision of gaming related services were negative US$16.5 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared with revenues from the provision of gaming related services of US$96.7 million for the third quarter of 2019. Revenues from the provision of gaming related services are net of gaming taxes and the costs incurred in connection with the operation of Studio City Casino deducted by the Gaming Operator pursuant to the Services and Right to Use Arrangements.

Total non-gaming revenues for the third quarter of 2020 were US$17.5 million, compared with US$61.4 million for the third quarter of 2019.

Total net non-operating expenses for the third quarter of 2020 were US$48.7 million, which mainly included interest expenses, net of amounts capitalized, of US$30.1 million and loss on extinguishment of debt of US$18.5 million, compared to total net non-operating expenses of US$28.8 million for the third quarter of 2019, which mainly included interest expenses of US$33.4 million, partially offset by interest income of US$2.7 million.

12

Depreciation and amortization costs of US$42.4 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2020, of which US$0.8 million was related to the amortization expense for the land use right.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our total operating revenues were US$25.5 million, a decrease of US$432.5 million from US$458.0 million of total operating revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in total operating revenues was due to the decrease in revenues from the provision of gaming related services and lower non-gaming revenues as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in temporary casino closure and a significant decline in inbound tourism in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Net loss attributable to Studio City Finance Limited for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was US$328.0 million, compared with net income attributable to Studio City Finance Limited of US$17.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to the decrease in revenues from the provision of gaming related services and lower non-gaming revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have relied on, and intend to continue to rely on, cash generated from our operations and debt and equity financings to meet our financing or refinancing needs.

As of September 30, 2020, we held cash and cash equivalents of US$156.1 million and restricted cash of US$0.1 million. Further, the HK$233.0 million (equivalent to approximately US$30.1 million) revolving credit facility under the 2021 Studio City Senior Secured Credit Facility was available for future drawdown as of September 30, 2020, subject to certain conditions precedent.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

13

Operating Activities

Operating cash flows are generally affected by changes in operating income and certain operating assets and liabilities, including the receivables related to the provision of gaming related services and hotel operations, as well as the non-gaming business, including food and beverage, entertainment, mall, retail and other, which are conducted primarily on a cash basis.

Net cash used in operating activities was US$64.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of US$81.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Both changes were primarily due to the softer performance of Studio City’s operations as described in the foregoing sections.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was US$106.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of US$40.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The change was primarily due to a decrease in withdrawal of a bank deposit with an original maturity over three months and an increase in capital expenditure payments.

Net cash used in investing activities of US$106.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 mainly included capital expenditure payments of US$105.8 million.

Net cash provided by investing activities of US$40.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 mainly included the withdrawal of a bank deposit with an original maturity over three months of US$60.2 million, partially offset by capital expenditure payments of US$15.4 million and funds to an affiliated company of US$4.4 million.

Net cash used in investing activities of US$147.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included capital expenditure payments of US$140.5 million and funds to an affiliated company of US$9.4 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of property and equipment and other long-term assets of US$2.6 million.

Net cash used in investing activities of US$49.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 mainly included capital expenditure payments of US$41.1 million and funds to an affiliated company of US$8.8 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$125.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, which represented proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes in aggregate principal amount of US$500.0 million and the 2028 Notes in aggregate principal amount of US$500.0 million, partially offset by the full redemption of the 2021 Studio City Company Notes in aggregate principal amount of US$850.0 million and the payment of deferred financing costs arisen from the refinancing of the 2021 Studio City Company Notes with the 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes of US$24.1 million.

Net cash used in financing activities amounted to US$40,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, which represented the payment of a deferred financing cost.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$165.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which primarily represented the proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes in aggregate principal amount of US$600.0 million, partially offset by the payment for notes tendered in the 2020 Notes Tender Offer of US$216.5 million in aggregate principal amount and the redemption of the remaining 2020 Notes of US$208.5 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding.

14

Indebtedness

The following table presents a summary of our gross indebtedness, before the reduction of debt issuance costs, as of September 30, 2020:

On July 15, 2020, the Company issued US$500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes and US$500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. On August 14, 2020, Studio City Company used a portion of the net proceeds to redeem in full the 2021 Studio City Company Notes, together with accrued interest and the applicable redemption premium.

Recent Developments

The COVID-19 outbreak continues to have a material effect on our operations, financial position, and prospects during the fourth quarter of 2020.

Commencing from July 15, 2020, certain travelers entering Guangdong from Macau were no longer subject to mandatory quarantine, while from August 12, 2020, those entering China from Macau were generally no longer subject to mandatory quarantine. On August 26, 2020, the Chinese authorities resumed the issuance of IVS visas for Guangdong residents, while the nationwide resumption of IVS visa issuance commenced on September 23, 2020.

Despite these developments, our operations continue to be impacted by significant travel bans, restrictions, and quarantine requirements imposed by the governments in Macau, Hong Kong, and certain provinces in China on visitors traveling to and from Macau, and such bans, restrictions and requirements have been, and may continue to be, modified by the relevant authorities from time to time as COVID-19 developments unfold. Additionally, health-related precautionary measures remain in place at our property, which could continue to impact visitation and customer spending. Furthermore, we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the construction of Studio City Phase 2. Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, we estimated a construction period of approximately 32 months for Phase 2. With the disruptions from the COVID-19 outbreak, the construction period has been delayed and is expected to extend beyond the estimated 32 months and the current development period.

As the disruptions from the COVID-19 outbreak are ongoing, any recovery from such disruptions will depend on future developments, such as the duration of travel and visa restrictions and customer sentiment and behavior, including the length of time before customers resume traveling and participating in entertainment and leisure activities at high-density venues and the impact of potential higher unemployment rates, declines in income levels and loss of personal wealth resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak on consumer behavior related to discretionary spending and traveling, all of which are highly uncertain.
