Organizations that the Company has served year after year include The Shade Tree of Las Vegas, a shelter and service provider for women and children in crisis; SHARE Village (formerly Veterans Village), a housing and social service provider for Veterans experiencing homelessness; and Dean Petersen Elementary School, a school serving one of the poorest neighborhoods in Las Vegas, with 100% of students qualifying for free and reduced lunch. One of the major themes of corporate philanthropy at Wynn has been assisting individuals and families experiencing crisis. Our communities never experienced a crisis as pronounced or widespread as in 2020. Our objective remains the same: provide immediate relief that brings short-term improvement in individuals’ lives – with an eye toward moving families from crisis to stability over time. The Company publicly discloses its volunteerism and community donations annually in the ESG Report and Proxy Filing. In recent years, the Company and its Foundation ramped up efforts to quantify and publicly disclose the social impacts experienced through the financial and in-kind support given. To support this effort, the Company requires grant recipients to report back on measurable metrics of the outcomes of their grants. The Company has taken appropriate opportunities to publicize its work in the community and allowed community partners to share the positive results from Wynn’s engagement with their results from Wynn’s engagement with their stakeholders. |

GRI 303-1 | Interactions with water as a shared resource |
Regional Water Stress:The availability of water as a resource varies among the regions of our resort operations. We assess water risk using the World Resource Institute Water Stress Map. In regions where an increased level of risk is identified, we prioritize specialized measures to responsibly allocate our water use by investing in water-smart facility machinery, integrating weather monitoring, expanding water recycling opportunities, and reducing external water intake. Wynn Resorts Regional Water Risk Assessment 2020: Management of Water:Wynn Resorts is taking steps to monitor and reduce our water usage. Our programs include investing in smart technologies, monitoring water use on a functional basis, aligning best practices among each of our resorts, and investing in equipment for water use intensity. At all our resorts, we take steps to utilize technology that uses water more efficiently. We collect soil moisture measurements daily with a digital moisture meter, which feeds into a smart meteorological system that disperses water based on precipitation, temperature, and other specific weather conditions. Evaporation and runoff are also minimized through our precise drip irrigation systems. We continue to look for new opportunities to use water more intensely, and report our water use annually in this report. |

GRI 415-1 | Political Contributions |
Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics provides that political contributions (either directly or through our political action committee) may only be made with the review and approval of our Global Chief Compliance Officer (Compliance Officer). Proposed political contributions are subject to an internal control process, designed to confirm compliance with all applicable laws, including contribution limits, and to confirm that all political contributions are to promote our business interests. The Company’s Government Affairs Department provides a quarterly report to the Compliance Officer summarizing all political contributions made by the Company in the prior quarter. For more information, please see our Political Contributions Policy. Wynn Resorts follows all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations related to disclosure of political contributions. The company also discloses on a quarterly basis certain political contributions on its Investor Relations website. Like many organizations, Wynn Resorts will engage in lobbying efforts where appropriate. From time to time Wynn Resorts has worked with government relations firms and internal staff for lobbying in various jurisdictions. The company follows all relevant laws and regulations for registration and disclosure of its lobbying activities. The company is also a member of various trade associations which will often engage in lobbying activities. Recent policy at the federal, state, and local level has focused on financial assistance for certain industries and businesses. While Wynn Resorts and the Trade Associations it is a member of have engaged in lobbying certain provisions of these policies, the company currently does not receive direct financial assistance from any government entity. The only tax abatement or preferential tax treatment that the company receives stems from so-called “Green building credits” related to the properties that Wynn and its subsidiaries operate. |
