CEO Comments

Edward Pitoniak, Chief Executive Officer of VICI Properties, said, 鈥淰ICI is proud of its long-standing partnerships, and we are very excited to have established two new strategic relationships so far this year with Cain International and its affiliate Eldridge Industries, as well as Red Rock Resorts. In February, we announced the establishment of our strategic relationship with Cain International and Eldridge Industries through a $300.0 million mezzanine loan investment related to the One Beverly Hills development project. Subsequent to quarter-end, we entered into an agreement to provide up to $510.0 million in a delayed draw term loan facility for the development of a tribal casino in central California that will be developed and managed by affiliates of Red Rock Resorts, thus establishing a partnership with Red Rock Resorts, one of the premier regional gaming operators. This transaction represents VICI's second loan investment on tribal land and Red Rock Resorts' first partnership with a REIT. We value both of these partnerships and take pride in our ability to build deep relationships with dynamic growth-minded operators that will help to contribute to our long-term growth goals and objectives."

David Kieske, Chief Financial Officer of VICI Properties, said, "VICI is also proud of our diligent focus on balance sheet management and remaining situationally ready in all market environments. This past quarter, we accessed the investment grade market to opportunistically refinance our May and June 2025 debt maturities amidst another volatile period. Our election to launch our $1.3 billion dual tranche bond offering on March 26^th allowed VICI to price $400 million of 3-year senior unsecured notes and $900 million of 10-year senior unsecured notes at a blended yield of 5.34%, including the impact of our hedging program. The timing decision was essential to managing refinancing risk ahead of April's market volatility, when credit spreads ultimately significantly widened. Our successful bond execution, in addition to our liquidity position of $3.2 billion, continues to allow VICI to be in the best position to remain opportunistic and deliver results for our stockholders and partners."

Total revenues were $984.2 million for the quarter, an increase of 3.4% compared to $951.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Total revenues for the quarter included $132.0 million of non-cash leasing and financing adjustments and $19.5 million of other income.

The year-over-year decline in net income was driven, on an absolute basis, by the $80.0 million aggregate change in the CECL allowance from the quarter ended March 31, 2024 to the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Funds from Operations (鈥淔FO鈥�)

FFO attributable to common stockholders was $543.6 million for the quarter, or $0.51 per share, compared to $590.0 million, or $0.57 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The year-over-year decline in FFO attributable to common stockholders was driven, on an absolute basis, by the $80.0 million aggregate change in the CECL allowance from the quarter ended March 31, 2024 to the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Adjusted Funds from Operations (鈥淎FFO鈥�)

AFFO attributable to common stockholders was $616.0 million for the quarter, an increase of 5.6% compared to $583.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. AFFO per share was $0.58 for the quarter, an increase of 4.3% compared to $0.56 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

First Quarter 2025 and Subsequent Investment Activity

Investment Activity

On February 19, 2025, the Company announced the establishment of a strategic relationship with Cain International and Eldridge Industries dedicated to investing in high-growth, experience-driven real estate, pursuant to a non-binding letter of intent, which expresses the parties' shared intention to work collaboratively to identify and pursue experiential investment opportunities that meet each party's investment objectives. The collaboration launched with the Company's $300.0 million investment into a mezzanine loan related to the development of One Beverly Hills, a landmark 17.5-acre luxury mixed-use development located in Beverly Hills, California. The mezzanine loan has an initial maturity in March 2026 and has one 12-month extension option subject to certain conditions. The Company funded the investment with a combination of cash on hand and drawing down funds under its Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below).

Subsequent to quarter-end, on April 4, 2025, the Company provided a commitment of up to $510.0 million of a $725.0 million delayed draw term loan facility (the "Term Loan Arrangement") to the North Fork Rancheria Economic Development Authority, a wholly owned entity of the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians of California. Proceeds from the Term Loan Arrangement will be used for the development of the North Fork Mono Casino & Resort ("North Fork") located near Madera, California, which will be developed and managed by affiliates of Red Rock Resorts, Inc. (NASDAQ: RRR) ("Red Rock Resorts"). Upon completion, North Fork is expected to feature approximately 2,400 slot machines, 40 table games, two restaurants, three bars, a food hall and a small retail offering. This transaction marks the Company's first investment with Red Rock Resorts, a premier gaming, development, and management company with extensive experience in regional gaming and entertainment, including Native American gaming development and management. The Term Loan Arrangement consists of a $340.0 million Term Loan A, of which the Company has committed up to $125.0 million, and a $385.0 million Term Loan B, of which the Company has committed up to the full $385.0 million, for a total VICI commitment of up to $510.0 million. The Term Loan A has a term of five years and the Term Loan B has a term of six years. The project is expected to be funded in accordance with a construction draw schedule.

First Quarter 2025 and Subsequent Capital Markets Activity

On February 3, 2025, the Company entered into a new $2.5 billion multicurrency unsecured revolving credit facility (the 鈥淩evolving Credit Facility鈥�) replacing the prior unsecured revolving credit facility of the same size. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on February 3, 2029 and can be extended for two successive six-month terms or one twelve-month term. The Company has an option to (i) increase the revolving loan commitments by up to $1.0 billion, and (ii) add one or more tranches of term loans of up to $2.0 billion in the aggregate, in each case, to the extent that any one or more lenders (from the syndicate or otherwise) agree to provide such additional credit extensions.

On March 26, 2025, the Company priced the offering of $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes. Subsequent to quarter-end, on April 7, 2025, VICI Properties L.P., a subsidiary of the Company, issued such notes comprised of (i) $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.750% senior notes due 2028 and (ii) $900.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due 2035 (the "April 2025 Notes"). The weighted average interest rate for the April 2025 Notes is 5.356%, and the adjusted weighted average interest rate, after taking into account the impact of forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks, is 5.342%. The Company used the net proceeds of the April 2025 Notes offering to redeem its outstanding (i) $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.375% senior notes due 2025, (ii) $799.4 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior exchange notes due 2025, and (iii) $0.6 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior notes due 2025.

From September 2024 through March 2025, the Company entered into a combination of forward-starting interest rate swap agreements and treasury locks with an aggregate notional amount of $750.0 million. In connection with the April 2025 Notes offering, the Company settled the outstanding forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks for total proceeds of $1.8 million. Since the forward-starting swaps and treasury locks were hedging the interest rate risk on the anticipated issuance of the April 2025 Notes, the unrealized gain, which was recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, will be amortized over the term of the respective derivative instruments as a reduction in interest expense.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company sold a total of 7,835,973 shares under its ATM program at a weighted average price per share of $32.43 for a gross value of $254.2 million, all of which were sold subject to forward sale agreements. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares at the time it entered into the forward sale agreements.

The following table details the issuance of outstanding shares of common stock, including restricted common stock:

The following table reconciles the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding used in the calculation of basic earnings per share to the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share:

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $17.2 billion in total debt and approximately $3.2 billion in liquidity, comprised of $334.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, $624.6 million of estimated net proceeds available upon physical settlement of 19,851,372 shares outstanding under its forward sale agreements, and approximately $2.3 billion of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility includes the option to (i) increase the revolving loan commitments by up to $1.0 billion, and (ii) add one or more tranches of term loans of up to $2.0 billion in the aggregate, in each case, to the extent that any one or more lenders (from the syndicate or otherwise) agree to provide such additional credit extensions.

The Company鈥檚 outstanding indebtedness as of March 31, 2025 was as follows:

Dividends

On March 6, 2025, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.4325 per share. The Q1 2025 dividend was paid on April 3, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 20, 2025 and totaled in aggregate approximately $456.9 million.

2025 Guidance

The Company is raising its AFFO guidance for the full year 2025. In determining AFFO, the Company adjusts for certain items that are otherwise included in determining net income attributable to common stockholders, the most comparable generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (鈥淕AAP鈥�) financial measure. In reliance on the exception provided by applicable rules, the Company does not provide guidance for GAAP net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, or a reconciliation of 2025 AFFO to GAAP net income because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount of the change in non-cash allowance for credit losses under ASU No. 2016-13 - Financial Instruments鈥擟redit Losses (Topic 326) (鈥淎SC 326鈥�) for a future period. The non-cash change in allowance for credit losses under ASC 326 with respect to a future period is dependent upon future events that are entirely outside of the Company鈥檚 control and may not be reliably predicted, including its tenants鈥� respective financial performance, fluctuations in the trading price of their common stock, credit ratings and outlook (each to the extent applicable), as well as broader macroeconomic performance. Based on past results and, as disclosed in our historical financial results, the impact of these adjustments could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company鈥檚 reported GAAP results. For more information, see 鈥淣on-GAAP Financial Measures.鈥�

The Company estimates AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2025 will be between $2,470 million and $2,500 million, or between $2.33 and $2.36 per diluted common share. Guidance does not include the impact on operating results from any pending or possible future acquisitions or dispositions, capital markets activity, or other non-recurring transactions.

The following is a summary of the Company鈥檚 updated full-year 2025 guidance:

The above per share estimates reflect the dilutive effect of the 19,851,372 shares currently pending under the Company's outstanding forward sale agreements, as calculated under the treasury stock method. VICI partnership units held by third parties are reflected as non-controlling interests and the income allocable to them is deducted from net income to arrive at net income attributable to common stockholders and AFFO; accordingly, guidance represents AFFO per share attributable to common stockholders based solely on outstanding shares of VICI common stock.

The estimates set forth above reflect management鈥檚 view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release. The estimates set forth above may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors and there can be no assurance that the Company鈥檚 actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth above.

Supplemental Information

In addition to this release, the Company has furnished Supplemental Financial Information, which is available on our website in the 鈥淚nvestors鈥� section, under the menu heading 鈥淔inancials鈥�. This additional information is being provided as a supplement to the information in this release and our other filings with the SEC. The Company has no obligation to update any of the information provided to conform to actual results or changes in the Company鈥檚 portfolio, capital structure or future expectations, except as may be required by applicable law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents Funds From Operations (鈥淔FO鈥�), FFO per share, Adjusted Funds From Operations (鈥淎FFO鈥�), AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (鈥淕AAP鈥�). These are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be construed as alternatives to net income or as an indicator of operating performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). We believe FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of our business.

FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is considered a supplemental measure for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. Consistent with the definition used by The National Association of AG真人官方 Estate Investment Trusts (Nareit), we define FFO as net income (or loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (i) gains (or losses) from sales of certain real estate assets, (ii) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (iii) gains and losses from change in control and (iv) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use as a supplemental operating measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate AFFO by adding or subtracting from FFO non-cash leasing and financing adjustments, non-cash change in allowance for credit losses, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of real estate investments, amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount, other non-cash interest expense, non-real estate depreciation (which is comprised of the depreciation related to our golf course operations), capital expenditures (which are comprised of additions to property, plant and equipment related to our golf course operations), impairment charges related to non-depreciable real estate, gains (or losses) on debt extinguishment and interest rate swap settlements, other losses, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, other non-recurring non-cash transactions and non-cash adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest with respect to certain of the foregoing.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA by adding or subtracting from AFFO contractual interest expense (including the impact of the forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks) and interest income (collectively, interest expense, net), current income tax expense and adjustments attributable to non-controlling interests.

These non-GAAP financial measures: (i) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. In addition, these measures should not be viewed as measures of liquidity, nor do they measure our ability to fund all of our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders, to fund capital improvements, or to make interest payments on our indebtedness. Investors are also cautioned that FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other real estate companies, including REITs, due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. Our presentation of these measures does not replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliations of net income to FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this release.
