LAS VEGAS SANDS CORP 13D

The Adelson/Chafetz group maintains a majority 59.7% stake in Las Vegas Sands Corp., with this 13D amendment mainly reflecting passive percentage increases from buybacks and internal trust transfers, not new activist intentions.

Amendment No. 16 to the Schedule 13D for Las Vegas Sands Corp. reflects that the long‑standing Adelson/Chafetz group continues to control a majority position, collectively beneficially owning approximately 386,728,789 shares, or 59.7% of the 647,701,184 outstanding shares, with Dr. Miriam Adelson holding about 52.7% and Irwin Chafetz about 52.2% (each on a beneficial basis, with overlapping trust holdings). The amendment is driven primarily by passive increases in ownership percentages resulting from issuer share repurchases and an internal trust reorganization in which ESBT S-II Trust transferred 43,859,460 shares to ESBT S Trust, causing ESBT S-II Trust to cease being a 5% holder while ESBT S Trust (7.2%) and newly added reporting person Annabelle Sivan Dumont (8.8%) report their stakes; there are no new activist plans disclosed, and the reporting persons reiterate prior Item 4 language without stating any intent to seek board changes or strategic actions.
