The Las Vegas Sands Corp. said it's in jeopardy of missing certain financial covenant requirements.

It needs to raise more capital, or it faces bankruptcy.

In a regulatory filing Thursday, the casino owner said it probably won't meet the loan requirements arranged by Lehman Brothers, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs Group.

The company was $8.8 billion in debt in June.

The dwindling cash flow threatens $16 billion worth of development in Macau, China and Singapore.
