Melco Resorts & Entertainment has secured recognition for its sustainability initiatives, earning inclusion in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025 and achieving environmental certification for its Studio City Phase 2 development.

The company has been named an ‘Industry Mover’ within the Casinos & Gaming sector in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025, positioning itself among the top performers across a range of global companies and industries.

This recognition required Melco to score within the top 15% of its industry and achieve a Corporate Sustainability Assessment score within 30% of the industry's leading company.

Additionally, Melco's Studio City Phase 2 development has become the first project in Macau to receive the BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating for New Construction.

Good to know: This recent certification follows the project's earlier success in winning the ‘Regional Award, Asia’ at the BREEAM Awards in 2021

Commenting on these achievements, Lawrence Ho, Chairman and CEO of Melco, stated: “In our goal to inspire guests by showing them a sustainable future is a better future, we are honoured to be recognised by S&P and BREEAM for our dedicated efforts towards our sustainability ethos, reflecting our commitment at every operational level and touchpoint.

“As highlighted in our sustainability strategy ‘Above & Beyond’, we will strive to continue to make a positive impact in everything we do, leading by example, and showing that it is possible to be successful while being responsible stewards of our planet and communities.”

This recognition follows Melco’s strong financial performance in Q3 2024, where revenue grew by 16% to $1.18 billion and operating income increased by 46.4% year-on-year.
