FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Studio City International Holdings Regains

Compliance with NYSE Listing Standards

Macau, Monday, August 2, 2021 – Studio City International Holdings Limited (NYSE: MSC) (“Studio City” or the “Company”), a world-class integrated resort located in Cotai, Macau, announces that it has regained compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards.

As previously disclosed, the Company received formal notice from the NYSE that it was not in compliance with Section 802.01A of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual (the “NYSE Manual”), which requires the number of total shareholders of the Company’s capital stock be no less than 400 shareholders (the “Initial NYSE Non-Compliance Notice”) and that it subsequently received formal notice from the NYSE that the Company was also not in compliance with the requirement under Section 802.01A of the NYSE Manual which requires the number of total shareholders of the Company’s capital stock to be no less than 1,200 shareholders if the average monthly volume of its American depositary shares is less than 100,000 for the most recent 12 months (the “Additional NYSE Non-Compliance Notice”).

Also as previously disclosed, on May 7, 2021, the NYSE notified the Company that it had regained compliance with the requirement described in the Initial NYSE Non-Compliance Notice.

On July 30, 2021, the NYSE further notified the Company that it had also regained compliance with the requirement described in the Additional NYSE Non-Compliance Notice, as well as all other NYSE continued listing requirements.

The NYSE also indicated that the Company will be subject to a 12-month monitoring period within which the Company will be reviewed to ensure it does not once again fall below any of the NYSE’s continued listing standards, in which case the NYSE may truncate the compliance procedures described in the NYSE Manual or initiate NYSE delisting procedures.
