Las Vegas Sands Corp (NYSE: LVS) is an integrated resort and casino company that owns and operates large-scale gaming, hospitality, and entertainment complexes in Macao and Singapore. Revenue comes from casino gaming, hotel accommodations, food and beverage, retail mall leasing, and convention and exhibition facilities across its properties. LVS operates through a 74.80% ownership stake in Sands China Ltd. (SCL), which controls five integrated resorts in Macao, and directly owns and operates Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, where gaming is limited to two licensed operators by the Singapore government through at least January 1, 2031. Macao properties include The Venetian Macao, The Londoner Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Plaza Macao and Four Seasons Hotel Macao, and the Sands Macao. Substantially all of SCL's revenue is derived from Macao operations, making the company materially exposed to Macao's economic and regulatory environment and Chinese government policy. The company also operates retail malls at each of its integrated resort locations and targets both mass-market and VIP gaming patrons, with the Paiza brand anchoring its VIP marketing strategy across regions.
