Despite the aggressive share buyback strategy, LVS reported a total debt outstanding, excluding finance leases, of $15.68 billion as of June 30, 2025.

Growth Opportunities and Regional Performance

Through a strategic drawdown of HKD 12.75 billion (approximately $1.64 billion) under its 2024 SCL Term Loan Facility, LVS facilitated debt redemption, positioning the company for ongoing financial strength.
