1 Hotel Indicators June 212 Hotel establishment and room capacities There were a total of 66 hotels (excluding guesthouses) operating in Macau as at the end of June 212, providing a total of 23,635 hotel rooms, an increase of 2,529 room inventories ( +9% ) YOY. 5 star hotels constituted for 63% of the total at 14,83, followed by 4 star hotels with a relative share of 24% at 5,557 and the rest were topped by 2 and3 star hotels at 3,248. The most significant YOY change has been for 4 star hotel rooms whereby we noticed the incremental was up by 1,23 in real terms ( +24%) which could be attributable to the recent opening of Holiday Inn holiday featuring a total capacity of 1,2 room inventories, besides 5 star hotels also exhibited a noticeable change up 1,262 YOY (+9%) with half of the gain generated from the new Cornad hotel providing an additional supply of 6 hotel rooms in the territory followed the opening of Sands Cotai Central in April TY. We continue to see very little movements on changes across the lower tier segments.

2 Average occupancy Accounting for June alone, average occupancy rate at local hotels (excluding guesthouses) was down by 2.37 diff points to 81%, with the most dramatic decline applied on 3 star hotels to 69% from 86%, 2 star hotels also reported on a notable fall from 75% to 71%, there were also marginal decrease inclined on 5 star and 4 star hotel sectors, to approx 8% and 87% respectively which could be attributable to the increase of the number of hotel rooms since April this year. In terms of 1H12, occupancy rate maintained highly consistent at 82% YOY. Despite occupancy rate at top level hotels was up by 1.28 diff pts to 82.2%, it was largely offset by a fall in occupancy among 3 star and 4 star hotels, with the former down to 79% from as high as 84% and the latter to 85%.

Both 4 star and 5 star hotels have witnessed a YOY increase of 28% and 6% respectively in terms of guest growth, and MOM both were up by approx 4%. 2 star hotels saw flat volumes on the same period last year but down on the last reporting month, the worst performer

3 has been for 3 star hotels which reported lower volumes both YOY and MOM. Guest distribution continued to be evenly distributed among different segments with 5 star hotels consistently accounted for over 5% of the total followed by 4 star hotels at 3% and the rest were among 2 and 3 star hotels. Hotel gusts by segment ( YOY comparsion) 694, ,19 759,964 Jun-11 May-12 Jun ,515 39,72 45, , , ,11 93,218 86,732 84,96 35,39 32,493 33,42 Hotels - total 5-star hotels 4-star hotels 3-star hotels 2-star hotels Accumulated guests for the first six months of the year increased by 12% YOY totaled to 4.4 mn. Substantial gain in guest volumes mainly fell on 5 star and 4 star hotel segments, reportedly at 19% and 11%, 2 star hotel guests also marginally marked on the positive territory driven by a modest 2.2% increase. On the other hand, we inclined to see 3 star hotel guests continually posted on shrinking trend, down by 7.6% against the first half of 211.

4 Hotel Guests by place of residence The primary source of feeder Mainland consistently accounted for over 55% of the hotel guest source in Macau, with June received a total of 41, guests among the respective origin, up by 15% YOY. As such, we found the notable increments were inclined on 5 star and 4 star hotel segments although volumes at 3 star hotels continued to drop. Besides, Japan is also another market which captured our attention as it marked the most standout YOY increase of 27% over June last year, we believe the favorable comparison was due to the gradual recovery of the economic situation this year recalling last year the Japanese economy was hit by the outbreak of the March 11 Tsunami hence the adverse impact on outbound tourism. Despite a strong YOY solid growth, both segments registered fewer arrivals in June compared to May and we suspected the highest warning typhoon Vincente that struck the territory at the end of the month were partially responsible towards the diminishing trend. Hong Kong which accounted for the second largest source of tourism feeder after Mainland, we inclined to see volumes were highly steady at on a YOY comparison. However, it is noticeable the majority of arrivals from the rest of Asia were registered on a YOY decrease, which we observed volumes were mostly down on 5 star hotels as well as lower tier segments at 3 star and 2 star hotels apart from 4 star hotels encountered a positive boost which could be attributable to better pricing and higher competitive package deals that generated in higher traffics, as lately over the recent months we have been seeing that holiday inn at SCC have been aggressive in their marketing strategies with room rates went down to as low as HKD 998 per night under a special promotional period.

Other arrivals which also showed contented growth included Mainland and Korea, whereby it was up by 16% and 19% respectively with 5 and 4 star hotel segments being the key benefactors. Guests volumes received from HK, Taiwan, Indonesia and Phillipines were essentially flat on last year. Contrary to the trend, there was a general decrease in volumes coming from India, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand.

Average length of stay ( YOY Comparsion) Jun-11 Jun Hotels - total 5-star hotels 4-star hotels 3-star hotels 2-star hotels In terms of average length of stay by place of residence, Mainland and Hong Kong continued to record the shortest stay at 1.2 nights (-.22 nights YOY) and 1.1 nights (-.12 nights YOY) respectively. In addition, the decline in the length of average stay were both inclined on the 5 star lucrative segment, with the former reported down from 1.49 nights to.96 nights and the latter from 1.29 nights to 1.11 nights. Korea despite, the average duration of stay was above market average at 1.32 nights, similarly it encountered a significant drop across the stay notably at the top segment from 1.72 nights down to 1.4 nights TY. Guests of stay from the majority of the rest of Asia origins were marked at nights, with the significance we found only source from India, Singapore and Philippines have extended their stay in the territory on a year on year basis, reaching to as close as 2 nights.

All the rest of the origins were inclined at an average stay of between 1.5 nights-2 nights at all hotel segments.

20 Percentage Change Changes in 5 star Hotel Guests by place of residence June 212 vs June 211 (YOY) 1H 212 vs 1H 211 (YOY) Mainland Hong Kong Taiwan, Japan India Indonesia Malaysia Philippines Republic of Korea Singapore Thailand The number of guests staying in 5 star establishments made up around 52% of the total number of overnight guests in Macau. The majority of visitors to Macau are from Mainland and they also form the majority of the guests at hotels. In June, the most significant increase in the number of guests comes from Mainland, increasing by 33,849 (23%) YOY and 28,497 (32%) when considering the cumulative value for the first six months. The number of guests from Japan also experienced a substantial change, increasing by 2,262 (22%) YOY and 18,765 (34%) when considering the first six months. This rise in Japanese overnight tourists can be due to the increased flight frequency between Japan and Macau, which was established earlier this year. The number of guests from Mainland and Japan are the only two categories that have performed favorably when comparing the statistics for June YOY, whilst the statistics for the other Asian economies fell, emphasizing the dependence of the Macau tourism industry on the Mainland visitors. The number of guests from India has decreased the most, falling by 4,195 (27%) YOY and 5,338 (11%) in the first six months, followed by Singapore falling by 1,647 (26%) YOY and 83 (3%) in the first six months. Overnight guests from the Philippines reduced by 22% YOY, those from Indonesia by 21% and Taiwan by 2%.

The number of visitors from the Philippines rose slightly by 479 (7%). Despite performing adversely in the June YOY comparison, the number of guests from India actually increased the most QOQ by 9,756 (6%) followed by Philippian visitors by 1,422 (22%) and Hong Kong visitors by 26,64 (11%). The number of guests from the Republic of Korea remained unchanged when compared to the second quarter of last year, but decreased the most substantially when comparing to the first quarter of this year, reducing by 6,24 (22%) QOQ.

23 Percentage Change Changes in 4 star hotel guests by place of residence June 212 vs June 211 (YOY) 1H 212 vs 1H 211 (YOY) Mainland Hong Kong Taiwan, Japan India Indonesia Malaysia Philippines Republic of Korea Singapore Thailand The number of guests staying in 4 star establishments made up around 31% of the total number of overnight guests in Macau. The number of overnight guests staying at 4 star establishments largely increased across the whole spectrum, with only a few exceptions, namely the Philippines and Singapore. Overall, the popularity of 4 star hotels performed significantly better than that of the 5 star hotels, indicating a slight shift of emphasis from the premium guests towards the middle and high class guests. Nevertheless, as the 4 star hotels only form around 2% of the total number of hotels in Macau, any change in the room statistics is likely to reflect significantly percentage-wise. The number of Japanese guests increased the most significantly when comparing June YOY, rising by 2,86 (58%) followed by Hong Kong with 15,15 (47%), Indonesia with 717 (37%), India with 433 (3%) and Taiwan with 1,316 (28%). Considering the cumulative statistics for the first six months, guests from the Republic of Korea increased the most significantly by 6,389 (3%), followed by those from Japan by 6,68 (27%) and the Philippines by 891 (15%). The number of guests from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia remain relatively unchanged. The number of guests from Singapore reduced the most substantially, falling by 527 (17%) in June YOY and 1,654 (1%) when considering the first six months.

26 Percentage Change Changes in 3 star hotel guests by place of residence June 212 vs June 211 (YOY) 1H 212 vs 1H 211 (YOY) Mainland Hong Kong Taiwan, Japan India Indonesia Malaysia Philippines Republic of Korea Singapore Thailand The number of guests staying in 3 star establishments made up around 11% of the total number of overnight guests in Macau. The performance of 3 star hotels has been largely adverse over the past year, with the number of visitors from most Asian countries in decline, apart from those visiting from Thailand. The data for Thai guests show a clear change of preference shifting from the more premium accommodation to the middle to high class range. It can be observed that the number of Thai guests staying in the 5 star category have significantly decreased (by 12% YOY), but apart from that, the numbers have increased for the other categories (16% YOY for 4 star and 16% for 3 star). The change in tourism preference can be a reflection of the economic contraction of around 9% resulted from the devastating floods that affected Thailand since last year. In June, the number of guests from Singapore has reduced the most in the 3 star category, falling by 743 (59%) YOY and 3,116 (39%) when comparing the first six months YOY.
