(NYSE: VICI) (\"VICI Properties\", \"VICI\" or the \"Company\"), an experiential real estate investment trust, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Through our previously announced capital commitments, we were able to deploy $230 million of capital during the quarter, through various of our loan and Partner Property Growth Fund agreements. In the quarter we announced a 4.2% dividend increase, enabling VICI to achieve a dividend CAGR of 7% since our IPO. Our methodical portfolio construction and consistent annual earnings growth from same-store rent escalations have funded our annual dividend increases, creating a compelling compounding opportunity. Our track record of 100% rent collection since formation is bolstered by enduring secular tailwinds, mission-critical real estate and tenant transparency. We expect these cornerstone elements of our portfolio to support compounding growth for years to come.\"\nThird Quarter 2024 Financial Results\nTotal Revenues\nTotal revenues were $964.7 million for the quarter, an increase of 6.7% compared to $904.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Total revenues for the quarter included $135.9 million of non-cash leasing and financing adjustments and $19.3 million of other income.\nNet Income Attributable to Common Stockholders\nNet income attributable to common stockholders was $732.9 million for the quarter, or $0.70 per share, compared to $556.3 million, or $0.55 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.\nFunds from Operations (\"FFO\")\nFFO attributable to common stockholders was $732.9 million for the quarter, or $0.70 per share, compared to $556.3 million, or $0.55 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.\nAdjusted Funds from Operations (\"AFFO\")\nAFFO attributable to common stockholders was $593.9 million for the quarter, an increase of 8.4% compared to $547.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. AFFO per share was $0.57 for the quarter, an increase of 4.9% compared to $0.54 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.\nThird Quarter 2024 Capital Markets Activity\nDuring the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold a total of 1,996,483 shares under its ATM program at a weighted average price per share of $33.82 for a gross value of $67.5 million, all of which were sold subject to a forward sale agreement. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares at the time it entered into this forward sale agreement.\nDuring the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company entered into forward-starting interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $400.0 million, which are intended to reduce the variability in future cash flows for a forecasted issuance of long-term debt.\nOn July 1, 2024, the Company physically settled 4,000,000 shares under an outstanding ATM forward sale agreement in exchange for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $115.2 million. Subsequent to quarter end, on October 1, 2024, the Company physically settled 7,000,000 shares under the same outstanding ATM forward sale agreement in exchange for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $200.9 million.\nThe following table details the issuance of outstanding shares of common stock, including restricted common stock:\n\n\n\n\n\nNine Months Ended September 30,\n\n\nCommon Stock Outstanding\n\n\n2024\n\n\n\n2023\n\n\n\nBeginning Balance January 1,\n\n\n1,042,702,763\n\n\n\n963,096,563\n\n\n\nIssuance of common stock upon physical settlement of forward sale agreements\n\n\n4,000,000\n\n\n\n53,192,592\n\n\n\nIssuance of restricted and unrestricted common stock under the stock incentive program, net of forfeitures\n\n\n469,718\n\n\n\n538,728\n\n\n\nEnding Balance September 30,\n\n\n1,047,172,481\n\n\n\n1,016,827,883\n\n\n\n\nThe 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:\n\n\n\n\nThree Months EndedSeptember 30,\n\nNine Months Ended September 30,\n\n\n(in thousands)\n\n2024\n\n\n\n2023\n\n\n\n2024\n\n\n\n2023\n\n\n\nDetermination of shares:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeighted-average shares of common stock outstanding\n\n1,046,627\n\n\n\n1,012,987\n\n\n\n1,043,922\n\n\n\n1,007,110\n\n\n\nAssumed conversion of restricted stock\n\n681\n\n\n\n603\n\n\n\n467\n\n\n\n790\n\n\n\nAssumed settlement of forward sale agreements\n\n1,031\n\n\n\n—\n\n\n\n508\n\n\n\n537\n\n\n\nDiluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding\n\n1,048,338\n\n\n\n1,013,590\n\n\n\n1,044,897\n\n\n\n1,008,437\n\n\n\n___________________\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: Subsequent to quarter end, on October 1, 2024, the Company physically settled 7,000,000 shares under an outstanding ATM forward sale agreement for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $200.9 million.\n\n\n\nBalance Sheet and Liquidity\nAs of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $17.1 billion in total debt and approximately $3.3 billion in liquidity, comprised of $355.7 million in cash and cash equivalents, $630.2 million of estimated net proceeds available upon physical settlement of 20,853,338 shares outstanding under its forward sale agreements, and approximately $2.3 billion of availability under its revolving credit facility.

The Q3 2024 dividend was paid on October 3, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 18, 2024 and totaled in aggregate approximately $452.9 million.\n2024 Guidance\nThe Company is updating its AFFO guidance for the full year 2024. 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 (\"GAAP\") 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 2024 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—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (\"ASC 326\") 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’s control and may not be reliably predicted, including its tenants’ 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’s reported GAAP results. For more information, see \"Non-GAAP Financial Measures.\"\nThe Company estimates AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2024 will be between $2,360 million and $2,370 million, or between $2.25 and $2.26 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.\nThe following is a summary of the Company’s updated full-year 2024 guidance:\n\n\n\n\n\nUpdated Guidance\n\nPrior Guidance\n\n\nFor the Year Ending December 31, 2024:\n\nLow\n\nHigh\n\nLow\n\nHigh\n\n\nEstimated Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO)\n\n\n$2,360\n\n\n\n$2,370\n\n\n\n$2,350\n\n\n\n$2,370\n\n\n\nEstimated Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) per diluted share\n\n\n$2.25\n\n\n\n$2.26\n\n\n\n$2.24\n\n\n\n$2.26\n\n\n\nEstimated Weighted Average Share Count for the Year (in millions)\n\n\n1,048.0\n\n\n\n1,048.0\n\n\n\n1,048.0\n\n\n\n1,048.0\n\n\n\n\nThe above per share estimates reflect the dilutive effect of the 13,853,338 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.\nThe estimates set forth above reflect management’s 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’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth above.\nSupplemental Information\nIn addition to this release, the Company has furnished Supplemental Financial Information, which is available on our website in the \"Investors\" section, under the menu heading \"Financials\". 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’s portfolio, capital structure or future expectations, except as may be required by applicable law.\nConference Call and Webcast\nThe Company will host a conference call and audio webcast on Friday, November 1, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (ET).

the impact of extensive regulation from gaming and other regulatory authorities; the ability of our tenants to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals in connection with the operation of our properties, or the imposition of conditions to such regulatory approvals; the possibility that our tenants may choose not to renew their respective lease agreements following the initial or subsequent terms of the leases; restrictions on our ability to sell our properties subject to the lease agreements; our tenants and any guarantors’ historical results may not be a reliable indicator of their future results; our substantial amount of indebtedness and ability to service, refinance at attractive interest rates, or at all, and otherwise fulfill our obligations under such indebtedness; our historical financial information may not be reliable indicators of our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows; the possibility that we identify significant environmental, tax, legal or other issues, including additional costs or liabilities, that materially and adversely impact the value of assets acquired or secured as collateral (or other benefits we expect to receive) in any of our completed transactions; the impact of changes to U.S. federal income tax laws or global tax laws; the possibility of adverse tax consequences as a result of our completed transactions, including tax protection agreements to which we are a party; increased volatility in our stock price, including as a result of our completed transactions; our inability to maintain our qualification for taxation as a REIT; the impact of climate change, natural disasters, war, political and public health conditions or uncertainty or civil unrest, violence or terrorist activities or threats on our properties and changes in economic conditions or heightened travel security and health measures instituted in response to these events; the loss of the services of key personnel; the inability to attract, retain and motivate employees; the costs and liabilities associated with environmental compliance; failure to establish and maintain an effective system of integrated internal controls; our reliance on distributions received from our subsidiaries, including VICI Properties OP LLC, to make distributions to our stockholders; the potential impact on the amount of our cash distributions if we were to sell any of our properties in the future; our ability to continue to make distributions to holders of our common stock or maintain anticipated levels of distributions over time; and competition for transaction opportunities, including from other REITs, investment companies, private equity firms and hedge funds, sovereign funds, lenders, gaming companies and other investors that may have greater resources and access to capital and a lower cost of capital or different investment parameters than us.\nAlthough the Company believes that in making such forward-looking statements its expectations are based upon reasonable assumptions, such statements may be influenced by factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those projected. The Company cannot assure you that the assumptions upon which these statements are based will prove to have been correct. Additional important factors that may affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial position are described from time to time in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law.\nNon-GAAP Financial Measures\nThis press release presents Funds From Operations (\"FFO\"), FFO per share, Adjusted Funds From Operations (\"AFFO\"), AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (\"GAAP\"). 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.\nFFO 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 Real 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, (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 and (v) our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.\nAFFO 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) gains, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, other non-recurring non-cash transactions, our proportionate share of non-cash adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate (including the amortization of any basis differences) with respect to certain of the foregoing and non-cash adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest with respect to certain of the foregoing.\nWe 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), income tax expense and our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.\nThese 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.\nReconciliations of net income to FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this release.\n\n\n\nVICI Properties Inc.Consolidated Balance Sheets(In thousands)\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSeptember 30, 2024\n\nDecember 31,
