SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events, including our future operating results and conditions, our prospects and our future financial performance and condition, all of which are largely based on our current expectations and projections. Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Moreover, because we operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry, may become highly leveraged, and operate in Macau, a market that has recently experienced extremely rapid growth and intense competition, new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) growth of the gaming market and visitation in Macau, (ii) capital and credit market volatility, (iii) local and global economic conditions, (iv) our anticipated growth strategies, and (v) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “target”, “aim”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “believe”, “potential”, “continue”, “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions.
The forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this quarterly report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this quarterly report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION
Although we will have certain expenses and revenues denominated in Patacas, our revenues and expenses will be denominated predominantly in H.K. dollars and in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars in this quarterly report were made at a rate of HK$7.78 to US$1.00.
The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since October 17, 1983, the H.K. dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of HK$7.80 to US$1.00. The market exchange rate has not deviated materially from the level of HK$7.80 to US$1.00 since the peg was first established. However, in May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority broadened the trading band from the original rate of HK$7.80 per U.S. dollar to a rate range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the link at that rate, and it, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.
The noon buying rate on June 30, 2014 in New York City for cable transfers in H.K. dollar per U.S. dollar, as certified for customs purposes by the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States, or the Federal Reserve Board, was HK$7.7502 to US$1.00. On August 15, 2014, the noon buying rate was HK$7.7500 to US$1.00. We make no representation that any H.K. dollar or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or H.K. dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.
The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 = MOP1.03. All translations from Patacas to U.S. dollars in this quarterly report were made at the exchange rate of MOP8.0134 = US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Board does not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Patacas.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in connection with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected in the future. Certain statements in this “Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements.
Summary of Financial Results
For the second quarter of 2014, our total net revenues were US$1.20 billion, a slight decrease of 7.3% from US$1.30 billion of net revenues for the second quarter of 2013. Net income for the second quarter of 2014 was US$186.3 million, as compared to US$219.6 million for the second quarter of 2013. The decline in net income was primarily attributable to lower group-wide rolling chip revenues, partially offset by improved mass market table games revenues.

Results of Operations
City of Dreams Second Quarter Results
For the second quarter of 2014, net revenue at City of Dreams was US$969.2 million compared to US$968.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. The net revenue was essentially flat from the comparative quarter primarily driven by growth in mass market table games drop and an improved mass market table games hold percentage, partially offset by lower rolling chip volume and rolling chip win rate.
Rolling chip volume totaled US$22.1 billion for the second quarter of 2014 versus US$24.8 billion in the second quarter of 2013. The rolling chip win rate was 2.7% in the second quarter of 2014 versus 3.1% in the second quarter of 2013. The expected rolling chip win rate range is 2.7%–3.0%.
7
Mass market table games drop increased 19.9% to US$1,330.8 million compared with US$1,109.9 million in the second quarter of 2013. The mass market table games hold percentage was 37.4% in the second quarter of 2014, an increase from 32.8% in the second quarter of 2013.

Total non-gaming revenue at City of Dreams in the second quarter of 2014 was US$68.6 million, up from US$63.1 million in the second quarter of 2013.
Altira Macau Second Quarter Results
For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, net revenue at Altira Macau was US$181.7 million compared to US$279.0 million in the second quarter of 2013. The year-over-year decrease in net revenue was primarily driven by lower rolling chip volume and rolling chip win rate, partially offset by higher mass market table games revenues.
Rolling chip volume totaled US$8.3 billion in the second quarter of 2014 versus US$11.8 billion in the second quarter of 2013. The rolling chip win rate was 2.7% in the second quarter of 2014 versus 3.0% in the second quarter of 2013. The expected rolling chip win rate range is 2.7%–3.0%.
In the mass market table games segment, drop totaled US$196.8 million in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 14.4% from US$172.1 million generated in the comparable period in 2013. The mass market table games hold percentage was 15.9% in the second quarter of 2014 compared with 15.5% in the second quarter of 2013.
Total non-gaming revenue at Altira Macau in the second quarter of 2014 was US$9.2 million, essentially flat from US$9.3 million in the second quarter of 2013.
Mocha Clubs Second Quarter Results
Net revenue from Mocha Clubs totaled US$36.5 million in the second quarter of 2014, a decline of 1.9% from US$37.2 million in the second quarter of 2013.
The number of gaming machines in operation at Mocha Clubs averaged approximately 1,200 in the second quarter of 2014, compared to approximately 2,000 in the comparable period in 2013 due to the closure of four clubs partially offset by the opening of two new clubs in late 2013 and 2014, respectively. The net win per gaming machine per day was US$331 in the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared with US$207 in the comparable period in 2013, an increase of 59.9%.

Other Factors Affecting Second Quarter Earnings
Total net non-operating expenses for the second quarter of 2014 were US$14.7 million, which included interest income of US$1.8 million, interest expenses, net of capitalized interest, of US$14.2 million, other finance costs of US$4.6 million and foreign exchange gain, net, of US$2.3 million, as compared to a total net non-operating expenses of US$19.5 million for the second quarter of 2013, which included interest income of US$0.9 million, interest expenses, net of capitalized interest, of US$15.6 million, other finance costs of US$4.7 million and foreign exchange loss, net, of US$0.1 million. The year-on-year decrease in net non-operating expenses of US$4.8 million was primarily due to lower interest expenses upon our scheduled repayments of the term loan under 2011 Credit Facilities, higher capitalized interest and net foreign exchange gain in the current quarter.
Depreciation and amortization costs of US$78.5 million were recorded in the second quarter of 2014, of which US$14.3 million was related to the amortization of our gaming subconcession and US$5.2 million was related to the amortization of land use rights.
Six Months’ Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, our total net revenue was US$2.58 billion compared to US$2.45 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The year-over-year increase in net revenue was primarily driven by improved group-wide mass market table games revenues, partially offset by lower group-wide rolling chip revenues.
Net income for the first six months of 2014 was US$438.9 million, compared with net income of US$323.0 million in the comparable period of 2013. The year-over-year improvements in net income was primarily attributable to the increase in mass market table games revenues, partially offset by lower group-wide rolling chip volumes and rolling chip win rate as well as there was a one-off charge on the extinguishment and modification of debt relating to the refinancing of the 2010 Senior Notes with the 2013 Senior Notes for the six months ended June 30, 2013 whereas no such expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have relied and intend in the future to rely on our cash generated from our operations and our debt and equity financings to meet our financing needs and repay our indebtedness, as the case may be.
As of June 30, 2014, we held cash and cash equivalents of US$1,602.9 million and the 2011 Credit Facilities of HK$3.12 billion (equivalent to approximately US$401.1 million) remains available for future drawdown.

Operating Activities
Operating cash flows are generally affected by changes in operating income and accounts receivable with VIP table games play and hotel operations conducted on a cash and credit basis and the remainder of the business, including mass market table games play, gaming machine play, food and beverage, and entertainment are conducted primarily on a cash basis.
Net cash provided by operating activities was US$308.4 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared to US$369.3 million for the second quarter of 2013. While net cash provided by operating activities was US$583.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to US$589.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was mainly attributable to the increased working capital for the operations for City of Dreams and Altira Macau.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was US$341.6 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared to net cash used in investing activities of US$101.8 million for the second quarter of 2013, primarily due to a decrease in bank deposits with original maturity over three months of US$410.6 million, partially offset by capital expenditure payments of US$51.7 million and advance payments and deposits for acquisition of property and equipment of US$16.4 million.

Our total capital expenditure payments for the second quarter of 2014 were US$51.7 million, as compared to US$17.6 million for the second quarter of 2013. Such capital expenditures for both periods were mainly associated with enhancements to our integrated resort offerings including the fifth hotel tower at City of Dreams.
Net cash provided by investing activities was US$402.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to net cash used in investing activities of US$644.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to a decrease in bank deposits with original maturity over three months of US$587.1 million, partially offset by our advance to shareholder of US$76.8 million, capital expenditure payments of US$88.5 million and advance payments and deposits for acquisition of property and equipment of US$17.8 million.
The decrease of US$587.1 million in the amount of bank deposits with original maturity over three months was due to maturity of the deposits.

Our total capital expenditure payments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were US$88.5 million, as compared to US$46.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

We also paid US$8.3 million for the scheduled installment of City of Dreams’ land premium payment for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities amounted to US$291.2 million for the second quarter of 2014 primarily represented the dividends payment of US$227.0 million and the scheduled repayment of the term loan under 2011 Credit facilities of US$64.2 million.

11
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to US$68.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily from proceeds of the issuance of 2013 Senior Notes of US$1.0 billion, partially offset by the early redemption of 2010 Senior Notes of US$600.0 million and the associated redemption costs of US$102.5 million, the repayment of the drawn revolving credit facility under 2011 Credit facilities of US$212.5 million, and the payment of debt issuance cost associated with 2013 Senior Notes of US$17.1 million.

Except for the scheduled repayment of the term loan under the 2011 Credit Facilities of US$64.2 million during the second quarter of 2014, there was no other change in our indebtedness as of June 30, 2014 as compared to March 31, 2014.
Our Company is also moving forward with the development of the fifth hotel tower at City of Dreams and the development was commenced in 2013, targeting to open in the first half of 2017.
The development of the fifth hotel tower at City of Dreams may be subject to further financing and a number of other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our investment plans are preliminary and subject to change based upon the execution of our business plan, the progress of our capital projections, market conditions and outlook of future business.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements that relate to future events, including our future operating results and conditions, our prospects and our future financial performance and condition, all of which are largely based on our current expectations and projections. Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Moreover, because we operate in a heavily regulated and evolving industry, may become highly leveraged, and operate in Macau, a market that has recently experienced extremely rapid growth and intense competition, new risk factors may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of these factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. These factors include, but are not limited to, (i) growth of the gaming market and visitation in Macau, (ii) capital and credit market volatility, (iii) local and global economic conditions, (iv) our anticipated growth strategies, and (v) our future business development, results of operations and financial condition. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “target”, “aim”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “believe”, “potential”, “continue”, “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions.
The forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this quarterly report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this quarterly report with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION
Although we will have certain expenses and revenues denominated in Patacas, our revenues and expenses will be denominated predominantly in H.K. dollars and in connection with a portion of our indebtedness and certain expenses, U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from H.K. dollars to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to H.K. dollars in this quarterly report were made at a rate of HK$7.78 to US$1.00.
The H.K. dollar is freely convertible into other currencies (including the U.S. dollar). Since October 17, 1983, the H.K. dollar has been officially linked to the U.S. dollar at the rate of HK$7.80 to US$1.00. The market exchange rate has not deviated materially from the level of HK$7.80 to US$1.00 since the peg was first established. However, in May 2005, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority broadened the trading band from the original rate of HK$7.80 per U.S. dollar to a rate range of HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar. The Hong Kong government has stated its intention to maintain the link at that rate, and it, acting through the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, has a number of means by which it may act to maintain exchange rate stability. However, no assurance can be given that the Hong Kong government will maintain the link at HK$7.75 to HK$7.85 per U.S. dollar or at all.
The noon buying rate on June 30, 2014 in New York City for cable transfers in H.K. dollar per U.S. dollar, as certified for customs purposes by the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States, or the Federal Reserve Board, was HK$7.7502 to US$1.00. On August 15, 2014, the noon buying rate was HK$7.7500 to US$1.00. We make no representation that any H.K. dollar or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or H.K. dollars, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.
The Pataca is pegged to the H.K. dollar at a rate of HK$1.00 = MOP1.03. All translations from Patacas to U.S. dollars in this quarterly report were made at the exchange rate of MOP8.0134 = US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Board does not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Patacas.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in connection with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected in the future. Certain statements in this “Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements.
Results of Operations
We are currently developing the Studio City Project, and as a result there is no revenue and cash provided by our intended operations. Accordingly, the activities reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations mainly relate to general and administrative expenses, amortization of land use right, interest expenses, other finance costs and pre-opening costs. Consequently, we have incurred losses to date and expect these losses to continue to increase until we commence commercial operations with the planned opening of the Studio City Project in mid-2015.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
For the second quarter of 2014, we had a net loss of US$14.3 million, a decrease of US$8.2 million from a net loss of US$22.6 million for the second quarter of 2013, primarily due to higher interest capitalization upon our continuous development on Studio City, partially offset by an increase in pre-opening costs.
Amortization of land use right expenses for the second quarter of 2014 were US$3.0 million, in-line with the same period in 2013.
Pre-opening costs for the second quarter of 2014 were US$4.2 million, compared to US$0.7 million incurred for the second quarter of 2013. The increase in pre-opening costs of US$3.4 million was primarily due to the consultancy fee in connection with the start-up operations of Studio City incurred in the second quarter of 2014.
Interest expenses (net of capitalized interest of US$18.1 million) for the second quarter of 2014 were US$35 thousand, compared to US$11.8 million (net of capitalized interest of US$7.9 million) for the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in interest expenses (net of capitalized interest) of US$11.7 million was primarily due to a higher interest capitalization of US$10.2 million associated with the Studio City construction and development projects.
Other finance costs for the second quarter of 2014 of US$6.4 million, included US$0.1 million of amortization of deferred financing costs (net of capitalization of US$0.3 million) associated with the Studio City Notes issued in November 2012 and loan commitment fees of US$6.3 million associated with the Studio City Project Facility which became effective from January 28, 2013.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we had a net loss of US$27.8 million, a decrease of US$16.3 million from a net loss of US$44.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to higher interest capitalization upon our continuous development on Studio City, partially offset by an increase in pre-opening costs.
Amortization of land use right expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were US$6.1 million, in-line with the same period in 2013.
Pre-opening costs for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were US$5.0 million, compared to US$1.4 million incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in pre-opening costs of US$3.6 million was primarily due to the consultancy fee in connection with the start-up operations of Studio City incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Interest expenses (net of capitalized interest of US$34.1 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were US$2.3 million, compared to US$24.7 million (net of capitalized interest of US$13.7 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in interest expenses (net of capitalized interest) of US$22.4 million was primarily due to a higher interest capitalization of US$20.4 million associated with the Studio City construction and development projects.
Other finance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of US$13.1 million, included US$0.6 million of amortization of deferred financing costs (net of capitalization of US$0.3 million) associated with the Studio City Notes issued in November 2012 and loan commitment fees of US$12.5 million associated with the Studio City Project Facility which became effective from January 28, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have relied and intend to rely on shareholder equity contributions and/or subordinated loans from our shareholders, net proceeds from Studio City Notes and a portion of the Studio City Project Facility to meet our development project needs through the opening of the Studio City Project. As a company relying on such financing sources, our working capital balance may be negative from time to time as the source of funds will be from long-term debt while our liabilities are current. In addition, we expect our cash outflow to increase as we will have substantial payment obligations relating to various development capital expenditure, pre-opening and working capital expenses and debt financing obligations during the construction period.
As of June 30, 2014, we held restricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately US$487.7 million. The restricted cash is comprised of unspent proceeds from offering of Studio City Notes, which were restricted only for payment of Project Costs of the Studio City Project in accordance with Studio City Notes and Studio City Project Facility terms.

Operating Activities
We are currently developing the Studio City Project and therefore there is no revenue and cash generated from our intended operations.

While for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, net cash used in operating activities were US$19.3 million and US$29.9 million, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily due to the increase in interest capitalization.

7
The decrease in restricted cash of US$147.0 million was primarily due to withdrawal and payment of Studio City Project Costs during the three months ended June 30, 2014 from bank accounts that are restricted for Studio City Project Costs in accordance with the terms of Studio City Notes and Studio City Project Facility.
Net cash used in investing activities was US$12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to capital expenditure payment of US$57.2 million and advance payments and deposits for acquisition of property and equipment of US$12.9 million, partially offset by the decrease in restricted cash of US$57.6 million.
The decrease in restricted cash of US$57.6 million was primarily due to withdrawal and payment of Studio City Project Costs of US$100.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 from bank accounts that are restricted for Studio City Project Costs in accordance with the terms of Studio City Notes and Studio City Project Facility, partially offset by the funds transfer from Studio City Holdings, our immediate holding company, of US$42.6 million as described below.
Net cash provided by investing activities was US$23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to US$84.2 million used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to decrease in restricted cash of US$281.3 million, partially offset by capital expenditure payment of US$201.8 million, advance payments and deposits for acquisition of property and equipment of US$32.8 million and land use right payment of US$23.2 million.

Indebtedness and Capital Contributions
As of June 30, 2014, our indebtedness amounted to US$825.0 million, which represented the outstanding principal balance under the Studio City Notes. There was no change in our indebtedness as of June 30, 2014 as compared to March 31, 2014.
Under our Studio City Project Facility, we have HK$10,855,880,000 (equivalent to approximately US$1.4 billion), comprising a five year HK$10,080,460,000 (equivalent to approximately US$1.3 billion) delayed draw term loan facility and a HK$775,420,000 (equivalent to approximately US$100.0 million) revolving credit facility. On July 28, 2014, we successfully drew down the entire delayed draw term loan facility under our Studio City Project Facility, with the revolving credit facility under the Studio City Project Facility remains available for future drawdown, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.
We have increased the construction budget for the first phase of Studio City from approximately US$2.0 billion to approximately US$2.3 billion. MCE and New Cotai, shareholders of SCI, have made available additional equity on a pro rata basis to partially fund such budget increase. However, this cost estimate may be revised depending on a number of variables, including receipt of all necessary governmental approvals, the final design and development plan, funding costs, the availability of financing on terms acceptable to us, an prevailing market conditions.
For the purpose of financing the first phase of Studio City, we successfully offered the US$825.0 million Studio City Notes and drew down the delayed draw term loan facility of HK$10,080,460,000 (equivalent to approximately US$1.3 billion) under the Studio City Project Facility, in November 2012 and July 2014, respectively.

Studio City Finance Limited
Note to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
| 1. | In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a pronouncement related to the financial statement presentation and disclosure for development stage entities. The amendments remove the topic of development stage entities from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and eliminate all the incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of the incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities should be applied retrospectively. These amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted. Studio City Finance Limited together with its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) has elected to early adopt these amendments and accordingly the incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities have not been included in the Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. |
