MGM Resorts’ operating income totalled $371m which represents a decline of 84.4% from $2.38bn in the prior year quarter.
The company said its previous year’s operating income was higher due to a $2.38bn gain related to the sale of MGM Growth Properties to VICI Properties, as well as a rise in rent expenses of VICI in April 2022 and the Cosmopolitan leases in May 2022.
The net income attributable to MGM Resorts was $201m as against $1.8bn last year. It was impacted by the items affecting operating income.
