Property EBITDA and Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations are not Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) measurements but are commonly used in the gaming industry as measures of performance and as bases for valuation of gaming companies.

Reconciliations of Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations to GAAP EPS and Property EBITDA to income from operations are attached to this release.
On a GAAP basis, third-quarter income from operations was $577.2 million, compared with $441.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Net income was $244.4 million, up 37.9 percent from $177.2 million in the 2006 third quarter. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.16, an increase of 20.8 percent from the 96 cents achieved in the year-ago quarter.
