Wynn Resorts, Limited (Nasdaq: WYNN) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.
Net revenues for the first quarter of 2009 were $740.0 million, compared to $778.7 million in the first quarter of 2008. The revenue decline was driven primarily by 8.7% lower revenues at Wynn Macau.
Consolidated adjusted property EBITDA (1) decreased 19.9% to $158.5 million for the first quarter of 2009, compared to $197.8 million in the first quarter of 2008.
On a US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) basis, net loss for the quarter was $33.8 million, or ($0.30) per diluted share, compared to net income of $46.7 million, or $0.41 per diluted share in 2008. Adjusted net loss in the first quarter of 2009 was $30.1 million, or ($0.27) per diluted share (adjusted EPS)(2) compared to an adjusted net income of $78.2 million, or $0.69 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2008.
Las Vegas First Quarter Results
Our results of operations for the periods presented are not comparable as the three months ended March 31, 2009 includes Encore at Wynn Las Vegas, which opened on December 22, 2008. The prior year quarter includes only Wynn Las Vegas.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2009, our Las Vegas operations generated adjusted property EBITDA of $43.9 million, compared to $68.4 million in the first quarter of 2008, with a 15.1% EBITDA margin on net revenue. The EBITDA decline was primarily driven by higher operating expenses associated with the opening of Encore.
Net casino revenues in the first quarter of 2009 were $117.5 million, compared to $125.1 million for the first quarter of 2008. Table games drop was $520.0 million, with win per table per day (before discounts) of $4,404, compared to drop of $533.3 million and win per table per day of $8,632 in the first quarter of 2008. Table games win percentage of 17.7% was below the property’s expected range of 21% to 24% and the 19.9% in the first quarter of 2008. Slot machine handle of $919.2 million was 2.5% above the comparable period of 2008 and win per unit per day was $179, compared to a win per unit per day of $227 in the first quarter of 2008. The reduction in win per table and win per unit is due primarily to the addition of 97 tables and 857 slot machines with the opening of Encore.
Gross non-casino revenues for the quarter were $228.4 million, a 13.3% increase from the first quarter of 2008, driven primarily by higher hotel and food and beverage revenues resulting from the opening of Encore. Hotel revenues were up 20.6% to $85.1 million during the quarter, versus $70.6 million in the first quarter of 2008 due to the addition of 2,034 suites at Encore. Our Las Vegas operations achieved an Average Daily Rate (ADR) of $222 for the quarter, compared to $298 in the first quarter of 2008. Our occupancy was 89.5%, compared to 95.8% during the prior year period, generating revenue per available room (REVPAR) of $199 in the 2009 period (30.3% below the first quarter of 2008 of $285).
Food and beverage revenues increased 25.6% to $96.9 million in the quarter as a result of the additional 12 food and beverage outlets located in the Encore expansion. Retail revenues were $19.6 million in the quarter, compared to $22.6 million, a 13.5% decline resulting primarily from reduced consumer spending in the first quarter of 2009. Entertainment revenues decreased $6.4 million (33.3%) from the first quarter of 2008 primarily due to the closure of the Spamalot production show in July 2008.
Macau First Quarter Results

Encore at Wynn Macau
Construction continues on a further expansion of Wynn Macau.
