Las Vegas Third Quarter Results
Our results of operations for the periods presented are not comparable to prior periods as the three months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 2009, our Las Vegas operations generated adjusted property EBITDA of $70.0 million (with a 21.6% EBITDA margin on net revenue), flat when compared to the $70.1 million generated in the third quarter of 2008. Revenues at Wynn Las Vegas were up 10.2% but EBITDA was flat due to the additional costs associated with the operation of Encore.
Net casino revenues in the third quarter of 2009 were $144.0 million, flat with the third quarter of 2008. Table games drop was $518.1 million, with win per table per day (before discounts) of $5,801, compared to drop of $531.0 million and win per table per day of $10,062 in the third quarter of 2008.

The reduction in win per table and win per unit is due to the addition of 91 tables and 812 slot machines primarily at Encore.
Gross non-casino revenues for the quarter were $225.0 million, a 17.9% increase from the third quarter of 2008, driven primarily by higher hotel and food and beverage revenues resulting from Encore. Hotel revenues were up 17.7% to $76.9 million during the quarter, versus $65.3 million in the third quarter of 2008 due to the addition of 2,034 suites at Encore. Our Las Vegas operations achieved an Average Daily Rate (ADR) of $210 for the quarter, compared to $272 in the 2008 quarter. Our occupancy was 83.9%, compared to 96.1% during the prior year period, generating revenue per available room (REVPAR) of $176 in the 2009 period (32.6% below the third quarter of 2008 of $261).
Food and beverage revenues increased 29.8% to $96.8 million in the quarter as a result of the additional 12 food and beverage outlets located in Encore. Retail revenues were $21.0 million in the quarter, 8.6% below last year’s levels and entertainment revenues increased 3.9% to $16.6 million from the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to the contribution from headliner performances during the quarter.
