The Company acts as an investment holding company. The Group is one of the leading owners of entertainment and casino gaming facilities in Macau. The Group currently has two major properties in Macau, The Landmark Macau and MFW. The Landmark Macau is an award- winning integrated hotel, casino and luxury shopping complex, featuring a five-star hotel and Macau’s first themed casino. MFW is a waterfront integrated gaming, hotel, convention and entertainment complex located on the outer harbour of the Macau Peninsula which follows the “Leisure, Tourism, Economic and Multi-Cultural Diversification” policy of the government of the Macau Special Administrative Region of the PRC. The Group’s businesses include (i) the provision of gaming services to SJM in three major casinos in its properties, namely Pharaoh’s Palace Casino in The Landmark Macau and Babylon Casino and the Legend Palace Casino in MFW under the Service Agreement; (ii) the operation of casino inside Savan Legend Resorts Hotel and Entertainment Complex in Lao PDR and (iii) the operation of hotels, entertainment and leisure facilities within its properties. On 13 May 2016, the Company entered into the project development agreement with the Government of the Lao PDR in respect of the acquisition of the Savan Legend at the consideration of US$42.0 million (equivalent to approximately HK$325.9 million). The project development agreement shall have an initial term of 50 years. The Group obtained the approval from the shareholders of the Company at an extraordinary general meeting of the Company held on 18 August 2016. On 1 September 2016, the Company has taken over the management and operation of Savan Legend. On 9 November 2017, the Group and the independent third parties (the “Buyers”) entered into the Disposal Agreement, pursuant to which the Group agreed to sell and the Buyers agreed to buy the entire issued share capital and all obligations, liabilities and debts owing by New Macau Landmark to Hong Hock, at a consideration of HK$4,600 million. The transaction is expected to be completed in early 2018 after the conditions precedent are fulfilled under the Disposal Agreement. 4 Macau Legend Development Limited 2017 Annual Report CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT 2017 was a year with opportunities and challenges for Macau. The factors such as economic situation in China, the changing profile of the visitors in Macau and natural disaster have caused uncertainties in the gaming and non-gaming business in Macau. According to the figures announced by the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, Macau generated gross gaming revenue of approximately MOP265.7 billion in 2017, representing an approximately 19.1% increase when compared to corresponding period in last year. It is the first time in recent years to achieve positive growth in Macau. During the year 2017, as benefited by the increase of the visitors in Macau, as well as the continuous development in our Lao’s business, the Group’s business achieved a total reported revenue for the year of approximately HK$1,836.1 million, representing an increase of approximately 24.8% over that of 2016. Adjusted EBITDA for the year was approximately HK$278.2 million, representing an increase of approximately 29.0% when compared to corresponding period in last year. In the past year, the Group has been committed to consolidating and expanding its hotel business in Macau. On 27 February, 2017, the Group’s Legend Palace Hotel, the latest 5-star addition to the MFW Redevelopment with 223 rooms and suites, 6 new food and beverage outlets, and a casino, has officially commenced its operation. Legend Palace Hotel has achieved steady growth in performance since its operation. The Group is actively improving the ancillary facilities inside MFW and increasing the number of events to be held in MFW, in order to attract more well-known brands to march into MFW. These will definitely facilitate MFW to become the most diversified convention and exhibition center and leisure hub. Also, the Group is seeking to complete the disposal of Landmark Macau (the “Disposal”). The Group believes that the Disposal will enable the Group to focus on the operation and development of MFW, and will provide MFW Redevelopment with sufficient financial support. Macau Legend Development Limited 2017 Annual Report 7 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT (CONTINUED) On the other hand, in response to the China’s “One-Belt, One-Road” policy, the Group also actively developed the overseas projects in 2017. Our Saven Legend Resorts in Savannakhet Province in Laos has contributed satisfactory overseas returns to the Group. In addition, a number of overseas projects, including an integrated resort and casino in Cape Verde, are also on the right track. The Group will continue to look for overseas projects with good development and investment potential so as to cope with its vision to create new market for business development. We will continue to focus on Southeast Asian destinations where the “One-Belt, One Road” policy from China is supporting new investment in tourism and tourism related infrastructure and will also focus on Portuguese-speaking countries, like Cape Verde, to make good use of the Sino-Portuguese platform for our diversified overseas business. Lastly, we would like to join the Board in thanking all of the Group’s employees for their continued hard work and dedication in the past year. The Group is grateful for their tireless effort and commitment in the past year, and the Group is proud of the contribution each and every one of them has made. The Group would also like to express its appreciation to all of its business partners and shareholders for their support throughout the year.
