EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 of VICI Properties Inc. and VICI Properties L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “VICI” mean VICI Properties Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including VICI Properties OP LLC (“VICI OP”), and references to “VICI LP” mean VICI Properties L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” mean VICI and VICI LP, including, collectively, their consolidated subsidiaries.

In order to highlight the differences between VICI and VICI LP, the separate sections in this report for VICI and VICI LP described below specifically refer to VICI and VICI LP. In the sections that combine disclosure of VICI and VICI LP, this report refers to actions or holdings of VICI and VICI LP as being “our” actions or holdings. Although VICI LP is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and joint ventures, holds assets and incurs debt, we believe that references to “we,” “us” or “our” in this context is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and we operate substantially all of our business and own, either directly or through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets through VICI LP.

VICI is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is the sole owner of VICI Properties GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of VICI LP. As of June 30, 2022, VICI owns 100% of the limited liability company interests of VICI Properties HoldCo LLC (“HoldCo”), which in turn owns 98.7% of the limited liability company interest of VICI OP (such interests, “VICI OP Units”), our operating partnership, which in turns owns 100% of the limited partnership interest in VICI LP. The balance of the VICI OP Units not held by HoldCo are held by MGM Resorts International or its affiliates.

The following diagram details VICI’s organizational structure as of June 30, 2022.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of VICI and VICI LP into this single report:

•enhances investors’ understanding of VICI and VICI LP by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

•eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and

•creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

We operate VICI and VICI LP as one business. Because VICI LP is managed by VICI, and VICI conducts substantially all of its operations and owns, either directly or through subsidiaries, substantially all of its assets indirectly through VICI LP, VICI’s executive officers are VICI LP’s executive officers, although, as a partnership, VICI LP does not have a board of directors.

We believe it is important to understand the few differences between VICI and VICI LP in the context of how VICI and VICI LP operate as a consolidated company. VICI is a REIT whose only material assets are its indirect interest in VICI LP, through which it conducts its real property business. VICI also conducts its golf course business through a taxable REIT subsidiary (a “TRS”), VICI Golf LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“VICI Golf”). As a result, VICI does not conduct business itself other than issuing public equity from time to time and does not directly incur any material indebtedness, rather VICI LP

2

holds substantially all of our assets, except for those held in VICI Golf. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by VICI, VICI LP generates all capital required by the Company’s business, which sources include VICI LP’s operations and its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness.

VICI consolidates VICI LP for financial reporting purposes, and VICI does not have material assets other than its indirect investment in VICI LP. Therefore, while there are some areas of difference between the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of VICI and those of VICI LP, the assets and liabilities of VICI and VICI LP are materially the same on their respective financial statements. As of June 30, 2022, the primary areas of difference between the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of VICI and those of VICI LP were stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital, non-controlling interests, and golf operations, which include the assets and liabilities and income and expenses of VICI Golf.

To help investors understand the differences between VICI and VICI LP, this report provides:

•separate consolidated financial statements for VICI and VICI LP;

•a single set of notes to such consolidated financial statements that includes separate discussions of stockholders’ equity or partners’ equity and per share and per unit data, as applicable;

•a combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that also includes discrete information related to each entity, as applicable;

•separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections;

•separate Part II, Item 2. Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities sections related to each entity; and

•separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each VICI and VICI LP in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that VICI and VICI LP are each compliant with Rule 13a-14(a) or Rule 15d-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

The separate discussions of VICI and VICI LP in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand our results on a consolidated basis and how management operates our business.
