Lawrence Ho (CEO) Thank you, Jeanne, and thank you all for joining us today.

We're confident in the long-term strength of our business and our outlook for the remainder of 2026 in Macau.

Despite near-term headwinds that are reflected in our second-quarter results, our priorities remain unchanged: to deepen customer engagement, attract high-quality visitation, and continue investing in our properties to anticipate the changing needs and preferences of our guests.

The opening of REM marks an important milestone in the continued evolution of City of Dreams, delivering a distinctive new experience for our guests which we believe is not available anywhere else in Macau.

We continue to take steps to operate more efficiently and strengthen our business.

Together with the phased opening of REM, these initiatives position us well to capture the growth in demand.

We continue to enhance the gaming experience across our portfolio.

We opened a new gaming area with 18 tables at City of Dreams near the southwest entrance at the end of July.

Its convenient location along the main Cotai Strip with easy accessibility is expected to attract incremental visitation, particularly from walk-in patrons.

The benefits of the convenient access to games has been a proven success with our 15-table gaming area near the Grand Hyatt entrance, which we opened in October 2025.

We're also commencing a revamp of the retail areas at City of Dreams in Macau.
