MARKET RELEASE SkyCity Entertainment Group Limited (SKC.NZX/SKC.AX) 17 August 2021 Update on SkyCity's New Zealand Properties SkyCity Entertainment Group Limited (SkyCity) advises that, from 11.59 pm today, it will be closing its Auckland, Hamilton and Queenstown casino and entertainment facilities. SkyCity's Auckland hotels will remain open to accommodate existing guests currently staying in-house, pending further advice from the New Zealand Government. These measures have been implemented in response to the announcement by the New Zealand Government earlier today that, following a new case of COVID-19 in the Auckland community, the COVID-19 Alert Level will increase to Alert Level 4 in New Zealand. It is expected that the Auckland and Coromandel regions will be in Alert Level 4 for a period of seven days and the rest of New Zealand will be in Alert Level 4 for a period of three days. SkyCity's Adelaide property is unaffected by these latest restrictions in New Zealand and remains open with physical distancing and hygiene requirements already in place.
