This action further simplifies our tracking stock structure and provides greater investor choice, while preserving Liberty’s optionality and flexibility,” said Greg Maffei, Liberty Media President and CEO. “At Formula 1, the quality of the fan experience at Grand Prix weekends continues to improve and is helping drive sellout crowds at many races. We saw the resilience of SiriusXM’s business through improved operating and financial results in the second quarter. Live Nation had yet another record quarter boosted by continued tailwinds in live events and strategic initiatives capitalizing on international growth.” Corporate Updates On July 18, 2023, Liberty Media completed the split-off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development (the “Split-Off”) into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. (“Atlanta Braves Holdings”). The Braves Group was a tracking stock of Liberty Media during the second quarter of 2023 and therefore its results are included in Liberty’s consolidated results for the second quarter. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. On August 3, 2023, Liberty Media completed the reclassification of its existing common stock to create the Liberty Live common stock (the “Reclassification”). Following the Reclassification, Liberty SiriusXM Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in SiriusXM, Formula One Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s ownership of F1 and other minority investments, and Liberty Live Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in Live Nation and other minority investments. The Reclassification was completed after the second quarter of 2023 and therefore results of Liberty Live Group are not presented for purposes of this presentation, except for certain cases where assets and liabilities are presented as of June 30, 2023 adjusted for the Split-Off and the Reclassification for informational purposes only. In connection with the Split-Off, Liberty Media settled all intergroup interests. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Liberty SiriusXM Group was settled by attributing 1.8 million Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock to Liberty SiriusXM Group. Liberty SiriusXM Group intends to reduce debt by exchanging the shares with one or more third party lenders within one year of the Split-Off. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Formula One Group was settled by distributing 6.8 million shares of Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock pro rata to holders of Liberty Formula One common stock. On July 12, 2023, Formula One Group paid $71 million to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle the 1.1 million share intergroup interest in Formula One Group attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group. During the second quarter of 2023, these intergroup interests had not yet been settled and are therefore reflected in the results in this presentation. Discussion of Results Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to the same period in 2022. LIBERTY SIRIUSXM GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group for the second quarter of 2023.

The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora, and an investment in Live Nation, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora. FORMULA ONE GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Formula One Group for the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, Formula One Group incurred $17 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense). “Formula 1 is capitalizing on our growth momentum and our fans are engaging with the sport across traditional, digital and social media platforms. We congratulate Red Bull on their record-breaking performance season-to-date, and are thrilled to see the gaps closing across the rest of the grid to produce exciting rivalries on track,” said Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1 President and CEO. “Next year we will host 24 races around the globe, with back-to-back races in closer proximity which will benefit the efficiency of operations for both F1 and our teams.” 2Q22 2Q23 amounts in millions Formula One Group Revenue Formula 1 $ 744 $ 724 Total Formula One Group $ 744 $ 724 Operating Income (Loss) Formula 1 $ 65 $ 72 Corporate and other (16 ) (20 ) Total Formula One Group $ 49 $ 52 Adjusted OIBDA (Loss) Formula 1 $ 154 $ 155 Corporate and other (8 ) (14 ) Total Formula One Group $ 146 $ 141 The following table provides the operating results of Formula 1 (“F1”).

Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1’s revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion revenue, (ii) media rights fees and (iii) sponsorship fees. There were six races held in the second quarter of 2023, compared to seven races held in the second quarter of 2022. The Emilia-Romagna (“Imola”) Grand Prix originally scheduled for May 21, 2023 was cancelled following severe flooding in the region and is not expected to be rescheduled or replaced in 2023. There are now 22 events scheduled on the 2023 race calendar. Primary F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter with growth across race promotion and sponsorship offset by a decline in media rights revenue. Despite one less race held in the current period, race promotion revenue grew due to contractual increases in fees and sponsorship revenue increased due to recognition of revenue from new sponsors and growth in revenue from existing sponsors. Media rights revenue decreased due to the impact of lower proportionate recognition of season-based income (6/22 races took place took place in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 7/22 in the second quarter of 2022), partially offset by continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue and increased fees under new and renewed contractual agreements. Other F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter primarily due to lower freight income driven by the easing of freight cost inflation on billing rates and lower hospitality revenue due to one less race held in the current period, partially offset by increased licensing income and higher revenue related to Formula 2 / Formula 3 car chassis sales. Operating income increased and adjusted OIBDA(2) was relatively flat in the second quarter despite one less race taking place. Team payments were lower compared to the prior year due to the pro rata recognition of payments across the race season with one less race held, partially offset by an expectation of increased team payments for the full year. Other cost of F1 revenue is largely variable in nature and is mostly derived from servicing both Primary and Other F1 revenue opportunities. These costs increased as significantly lower freight costs were offset by increased hospitality costs associated with servicing higher Paddock Club attendance and cost inflation and higher commissions and partner servicing costs associated with growth in Primary F1 revenue streams. Other cost of F1 revenue in the current period also includes hospitality, travel and other costs related to the Imola event that had largely been incurred prior to the event’s late cancellation. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased in the second quarter due to lower personnel and legal costs and foreign exchange favorability, partially offset by higher marketing, property and IT costs. There were $7 million of costs associated with the planning of the Las Vegas Grand Prix included in selling, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2023. The businesses and assets attributed to Formula One Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1, other minority investments and an intergroup interest in Braves Group, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1 and other minority investments. BRAVES GROUP - Liberty Media completed the Split-Off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings (NASDAQ: BATRA, BATRK) on July 18, 2023. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. Share Repurchases There were no repurchases of Liberty Media’s common stock from May 1, 2023 through July 31, 2023. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of August 1, 2023 is $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media tracking stocks.

Liberty Media, SiriusXM, F1 and the Braves are in compliance with their debt covenants as of June 30, 2023. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $119 million in the second quarter as net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM and capital expenditures and return of capital at SiriusXM more than offset cash from operations at SiriusXM. Included in the cash and cash equivalents balance attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group at June 30, 2023 is $51 million held at SiriusXM. Although SiriusXM is a consolidated subsidiary, it is a separate public company with a non-controlling interest, therefore Liberty Media does not have ready access to SiriusXM’s cash balance. Liberty SiriusXM Group received $78 million of dividends from SiriusXM during the quarter. Total debt attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $360 million during the quarter due to net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM. During the second quarter, Liberty SiriusXM Group paid $275 million to settle the remaining amount outstanding of its 2.125% exchangeable debentures due 2048. On August 3, 2023, in connection with the Reclassification, the 0.5% exchangeable debentures due 2050 and the Live Nation margin loan were attributed to Liberty Live Group. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Formula One Group decreased $95 million during the quarter as cash from operations at F1 was more than offset by capital expenditures related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the purchase of investments. Total debt at Formula One Group was relatively flat in the second quarter. The margin on F1’s existing Term Loan B was permanently reduced from 3.25% to 3.00% during the second quarter as a result of F1’s reported leverage at March 31, 2023 as defined in its credit facilities for covenant calculations falling below a certain threshold. In connection with the Reclassification, the conversion consideration of the 1.375% cash convertible notes was adjusted such that the conversion rate is 23.1586 per bond and comprised of (i) 0.2547 of a share of new Series A Liberty Formula One common stock, (ii) 0.2650 of a share of new Series A Liberty Live common stock and (iii) 1.0163 shares of new Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock. Liberty Media also expects that its 3.75% Liberty SiriusXM Group convertible notes due 2028 (convertible into LSXMA) and its 2.25% Formula One Group convertible notes due 2027 (convertible into FWONK) will be adjusted to provide for the conversion and settlement of the notes into the reclassified Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group equities, respectively, at new conversion rates in accordance with each respective bond indenture. The relevant information will be communicated to bondholders pursuant to the terms of the bond indentures.

provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes a presentation of Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and Formula One Group, together with reconciliations to operating income, as determined under GAAP. Liberty Media defines Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, restructuring, acquisition and other related costs and impairment charges. Liberty Media believes Adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business’ performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because Adjusted OIBDA is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty Media views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is not meant to replace or supersede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty Media's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA for Liberty Media to operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. QUARTERLY SUMMARY (amounts in millions) 2Q22 2Q23 Liberty SiriusXM Group Operating income $ 472 $ 452 Depreciation and amortization 152 154 Stock compensation expense 50 46 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 18 Adjusted OIBDA $ 675 $ 694 Formula One Group Operating income $ 49 $ 52 Depreciation and amortization 93 84 Stock compensation expense 4 5 Adjusted OIBDA $ 146 $ 141 Braves Group Operating income $ 35 $ 19 Depreciation and amortization 17 19 Stock compensation expense 3 3 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) — 1 Adjusted OIBDA $ 55 $ 42 Liberty Media Corporation (Consolidated) Operating income $ 556 $ 523 Depreciation and amortization 262 257 Stock compensation expense 57 54 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 19 Adjusted OIBDA $ 876 $ 877 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Braves Holdings recorded $1 million of charges associated with hurricane damage to the Braves’ spring training facility located in North Port, Florida. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 2 This press release also includes a presentation of adjusted EBITDA of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone net income, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. SiriusXM adjusts EBITDA to exclude the impact of other expense (income) as well as certain other charges discussed below. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or adjusts for (if applicable): (i) loss on extinguishment of debt, (ii) share-based payment expense, (iii) impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, (iv) legal settlements/reserves and (v) other significant operating expense (income) that do not relate to the on-going performance of SiriusXM’s business. SiriusXM believes adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the underlying trend of its operating performance, which provides useful information about its business apart from the costs associated with its capital structure and purchase price accounting. SiriusXM believes investors find this non-GAAP financial measure useful when analyzing past operating performance with current performance and comparing SiriusXM’s operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. SiriusXM believes investors use adjusted EBITDA to estimate current enterprise value and to make investment decisions. As a result of large capital investments in SiriusXM’s satellite radio system, its results of operations reflect significant charges for depreciation expense. SiriusXM believes the exclusion of share-based payment expense is useful as it is not directly related to the operational conditions of its business. SiriusXM also believes the exclusion of impairment, restructuring and acquisition related costs, to the extent they occur during the period, is useful as they are significant expenses not incurred as part of its normal operations for the period. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to SiriusXM’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income of certain expenses, including share-based payment expense. SiriusXM endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by also providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate SiriusXM’s operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net income as disclosed in SiriusXM’s unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Since adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, SiriusXM’s calculation of adjusted EBITDA may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliation of net income to the adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Net income: $ 292 $ 310 Add back items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA: Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs(a) 1 18 Share-based payment expense 47 42 Depreciation and amortization 135 139 Interest expense 104 107 Other (income) expense 4 — Income tax expense 96 62 Adjusted EBITDA $ 679 $ 702 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 3 This press release also includes a presentation of free cash flow of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone cash flow provided by operating activities, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM’s free cash flow is derived from cash flow provided by operating activities plus insurance recoveries on its satellites, net of additions to property and equipment and purchases of other investments. Free cash flow is a metric that SiriusXM’s management and board of directors use to evaluate the cash generated by its operations, net of capital expenditures and other investment activity. In a capital intensive business, with significant investments in satellites, SiriusXM looks at its operating cash flow, net of these investing cash outflows, to determine cash available for future subscriber acquisition and capital expenditures, to repurchase or retire debt, to acquire other companies and to evaluate its ability to return capital to stockholders. SiriusXM excludes from free cash flow certain items that do not relate to the on-going performance of its business, such as cash flows related to acquisitions, strategic and short-term investments and net loan activity with related parties and other equity investees. SiriusXM believes free cash flow is an indicator of the long-term financial stability of its business. Free cash flow, which is reconciled to "Net cash provided by operating activities," is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure can be calculated by deducting amounts under the captions "Additions to property and equipment" and deducting or adding Restricted and other investment activity from "Net cash provided by operating activities" from the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow should be used in conjunction with other GAAP financial performance measures and may not be comparable to free cash flow measures presented by other companies. Free cash flow should be viewed as a supplemental measure rather than an alternative measure of cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is limited and does not represent remaining cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt maturities. SiriusXM believes free cash flow provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding its current cash flow, along with other GAAP measures (such as cash flows from operating and investing activities), to determine its financial condition, and to compare its operating performance to other communications, entertainment and media companies. Free cash flow is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Cash flow information Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Net cash used in investing activities $ (191 ) $ (130 ) Net cash used in financing activities $ (292 ) $ (323 ) Free cash flow Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Additions to property and equipment (99 ) (128 ) Purchases of other investments 1 — Free cash flow $ 435 $ 323 View source version on businesswire.com: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230803283098/en/Contacts Shane Kleinstein (720) 875-5432 Data & News supplied by www.cloudquote.io Stock quotes supplied by Barchart Quotes delayed at least 20 minutes.

Liberty Media Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results By: Liberty Media Corporation via Business Wire August 04, 2023 at 08:15 AM EDT Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty Media" or “Liberty”) (NASDAQ: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK) today reported second quarter 2023 results.

This action further simplifies our tracking stock structure and provides greater investor choice, while preserving Liberty’s optionality and flexibility,” said Greg Maffei, Liberty Media President and CEO. “At Formula 1, the quality of the fan experience at Grand Prix weekends continues to improve and is helping drive sellout crowds at many races. We saw the resilience of SiriusXM’s business through improved operating and financial results in the second quarter. Live Nation had yet another record quarter boosted by continued tailwinds in live events and strategic initiatives capitalizing on international growth.” Corporate Updates On July 18, 2023, Liberty Media completed the split-off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development (the “Split-Off”) into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. (“Atlanta Braves Holdings”). The Braves Group was a tracking stock of Liberty Media during the second quarter of 2023 and therefore its results are included in Liberty’s consolidated results for the second quarter. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. On August 3, 2023, Liberty Media completed the reclassification of its existing common stock to create the Liberty Live common stock (the “Reclassification”). Following the Reclassification, Liberty SiriusXM Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in SiriusXM, Formula One Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s ownership of F1 and other minority investments, and Liberty Live Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in Live Nation and other minority investments. The Reclassification was completed after the second quarter of 2023 and therefore results of Liberty Live Group are not presented for purposes of this presentation, except for certain cases where assets and liabilities are presented as of June 30, 2023 adjusted for the Split-Off and the Reclassification for informational purposes only. In connection with the Split-Off, Liberty Media settled all intergroup interests. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Liberty SiriusXM Group was settled by attributing 1.8 million Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock to Liberty SiriusXM Group. Liberty SiriusXM Group intends to reduce debt by exchanging the shares with one or more third party lenders within one year of the Split-Off. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Formula One Group was settled by distributing 6.8 million shares of Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock pro rata to holders of Liberty Formula One common stock. On July 12, 2023, Formula One Group paid $71 million to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle the 1.1 million share intergroup interest in Formula One Group attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group. During the second quarter of 2023, these intergroup interests had not yet been settled and are therefore reflected in the results in this presentation. Discussion of Results Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to the same period in 2022. LIBERTY SIRIUSXM GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group for the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, $12 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to Liberty SiriusXM Group. 2Q22 2Q23 % Change amounts in millions Liberty SiriusXM Group Revenue SiriusXM $ 2,254 $ 2,250 — % Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 2,254 $ 2,250 — % Operating Income (Loss) SiriusXM 479 464 (3 )% Corporate and other (7 ) (12 ) (71 )% Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 472 $ 452 (4 )% Adjusted OIBDA (Loss) SiriusXM 679 702 3 % Corporate and other (4 ) (8 ) (100 )% Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 675 $ 694 3 % SiriusXM is a separate publicly traded company and additional information about SiriusXM can be obtained through its website and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For presentation purposes on page one of this release, we include the results of SiriusXM, as reported by SiriusXM, without regard to the purchase accounting adjustments applied by us for purposes of our financial statements. Liberty Media believes the presentation of financial results as reported by SiriusXM is useful to investors as the comparability of those results is best understood in the context of SiriusXM's historical financial presentation. The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora, and an investment in Live Nation, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora. FORMULA ONE GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Formula One Group for the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, Formula One Group incurred $17 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense). “Formula 1 is capitalizing on our growth momentum and our fans are engaging with the sport across traditional, digital and social media platforms. We congratulate Red Bull on their record-breaking performance season-to-date, and are thrilled to see the gaps closing across the rest of the grid to produce exciting rivalries on track,” said Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1 President and CEO. “Next year we will host 24 races around the globe, with back-to-back races in closer proximity which will benefit the efficiency of operations for both F1 and our teams.” 2Q22 2Q23 amounts in millions Formula One Group Revenue Formula 1 $ 744 $ 724 Total Formula One Group $ 744 $ 724 Operating Income (Loss) Formula 1 $ 65 $ 72 Corporate and other (16 ) (20 ) Total Formula One Group $ 49 $ 52 Adjusted OIBDA (Loss) Formula 1 $ 154 $ 155 Corporate and other (8 ) (14 ) Total Formula One Group $ 146 $ 141 The following table provides the operating results of Formula 1 (“F1”).

Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1’s revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion revenue, (ii) media rights fees and (iii) sponsorship fees. There were six races held in the second quarter of 2023, compared to seven races held in the second quarter of 2022. The Emilia-Romagna (“Imola”) Grand Prix originally scheduled for May 21, 2023 was cancelled following severe flooding in the region and is not expected to be rescheduled or replaced in 2023. There are now 22 events scheduled on the 2023 race calendar. Primary F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter with growth across race promotion and sponsorship offset by a decline in media rights revenue. Despite one less race held in the current period, race promotion revenue grew due to contractual increases in fees and sponsorship revenue increased due to recognition of revenue from new sponsors and growth in revenue from existing sponsors. Media rights revenue decreased due to the impact of lower proportionate recognition of season-based income (6/22 races took place took place in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 7/22 in the second quarter of 2022), partially offset by continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue and increased fees under new and renewed contractual agreements. Other F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter primarily due to lower freight income driven by the easing of freight cost inflation on billing rates and lower hospitality revenue due to one less race held in the current period, partially offset by increased licensing income and higher revenue related to Formula 2 / Formula 3 car chassis sales. Operating income increased and adjusted OIBDA(2) was relatively flat in the second quarter despite one less race taking place. Team payments were lower compared to the prior year due to the pro rata recognition of payments across the race season with one less race held, partially offset by an expectation of increased team payments for the full year. Other cost of F1 revenue is largely variable in nature and is mostly derived from servicing both Primary and Other F1 revenue opportunities. These costs increased as significantly lower freight costs were offset by increased hospitality costs associated with servicing higher Paddock Club attendance and cost inflation and higher commissions and partner servicing costs associated with growth in Primary F1 revenue streams. Other cost of F1 revenue in the current period also includes hospitality, travel and other costs related to the Imola event that had largely been incurred prior to the event’s late cancellation. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased in the second quarter due to lower personnel and legal costs and foreign exchange favorability, partially offset by higher marketing, property and IT costs. There were $7 million of costs associated with the planning of the Las Vegas Grand Prix included in selling, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2023. The businesses and assets attributed to Formula One Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1, other minority investments and an intergroup interest in Braves Group, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1 and other minority investments. BRAVES GROUP - Liberty Media completed the Split-Off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings (NASDAQ: BATRA, BATRK) on July 18, 2023. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. Share Repurchases There were no repurchases of Liberty Media’s common stock from May 1, 2023 through July 31, 2023. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of August 1, 2023 is $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media tracking stocks. FOOTNOTES Liberty Media will discuss these headlines and other matters on Liberty Media's earnings conference call that will begin at 10:00 a.m. (E.T.) on August 4, 2023.

For purposes of this presentation, financial information with respect to Liberty Media’s equity affiliates, available for sale securities, cash and debt is also shown adjusted for the Split-Off and the Reclassification. On August 3, 2023, in connection with the Reclassification, Liberty Media’s Live Nation investment previously attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group and certain private and public assets previously attributed to Formula One Group were attributed to Liberty Live Group. Approximately $100 million of cash from Formula One Group was contributed to Liberty Live Group in connection with the Reclassification, of which approximately $33 million came from the partial liquidation of monetizable public holdings previously held at Formula One Group. Additionally, all intergroup interests were settled in connection with the Split-Off. Additional information on the assets attributed to each tracker adjusted for the Split-Off and the Reclassification can be found at https://www.libertymedia.com/about/asset-list.

Cash adjusted for Split-Off and Reclassification reflects $71 million payment from Formula One Group to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle intergroup interest. b) Includes $1,043 million and $1,055 million of cash held at F1 as of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. Cash adjusted for Split-Off and Reclassification reflects $71 million payment from Formula One Group to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle intergroup interest and $67 million of cash on hand contributed to Liberty Live Group. c) Excludes restricted cash held in reserves pursuant to the terms of various financial obligations of $30 million and $52 million as of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. d) In connection with the Reclassification Liberty Live Group was capitalized with $100 million of cash from Formula One Group, of which approximately $33 million came from the partial liquidation of monetizable public holdings previously held at Formula One Group. e) Outstanding principal amount of Senior Notes or Term Loan with no reduction for the net unamortized discount. f) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, certain investors exercised their right to require a Special Repurchase, as defined in the indenture governing the Pandora convertible senior notes, and Pandora repurchased $98 million principal amount of such notes with cash for an aggregate purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. g) Face amount of the convertible notes and exchangeable debentures with no fair market value adjustment. h) Includes SiriusXM revolving credit facility and term loan. i) Net debt to covenant OIBDA ratio of F1 operating business as defined in F1’s credit facilities for covenant calculations. Liberty Media, SiriusXM, F1 and the Braves are in compliance with their debt covenants as of June 30, 2023. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $119 million in the second quarter as net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM and capital expenditures and return of capital at SiriusXM more than offset cash from operations at SiriusXM. Included in the cash and cash equivalents balance attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group at June 30, 2023 is $51 million held at SiriusXM. Although SiriusXM is a consolidated subsidiary, it is a separate public company with a non-controlling interest, therefore Liberty Media does not have ready access to SiriusXM’s cash balance. Liberty SiriusXM Group received $78 million of dividends from SiriusXM during the quarter. Total debt attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $360 million during the quarter due to net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM. During the second quarter, Liberty SiriusXM Group paid $275 million to settle the remaining amount outstanding of its 2.125% exchangeable debentures due 2048. On August 3, 2023, in connection with the Reclassification, the 0.5% exchangeable debentures due 2050 and the Live Nation margin loan were attributed to Liberty Live Group. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Formula One Group decreased $95 million during the quarter as cash from operations at F1 was more than offset by capital expenditures related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the purchase of investments. Total debt at Formula One Group was relatively flat in the second quarter. The margin on F1’s existing Term Loan B was permanently reduced from 3.25% to 3.00% during the second quarter as a result of F1’s reported leverage at March 31, 2023 as defined in its credit facilities for covenant calculations falling below a certain threshold. In connection with the Reclassification, the conversion consideration of the 1.375% cash convertible notes was adjusted such that the conversion rate is 23.1586 per bond and comprised of (i) 0.2547 of a share of new Series A Liberty Formula One common stock, (ii) 0.2650 of a share of new Series A Liberty Live common stock and (iii) 1.0163 shares of new Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock. Liberty Media also expects that its 3.75% Liberty SiriusXM Group convertible notes due 2028 (convertible into LSXMA) and its 2.25% Formula One Group convertible notes due 2027 (convertible into FWONK) will be adjusted to provide for the conversion and settlement of the notes into the reclassified Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group equities, respectively, at new conversion rates in accordance with each respective bond indenture. The relevant information will be communicated to bondholders pursuant to the terms of the bond indentures.

provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes a presentation of Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and Formula One Group, together with reconciliations to operating income, as determined under GAAP. Liberty Media defines Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, restructuring, acquisition and other related costs and impairment charges. Liberty Media believes Adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business’ performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because Adjusted OIBDA is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty Media views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is not meant to replace or supersede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty Media's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA for Liberty Media to operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. QUARTERLY SUMMARY (amounts in millions) 2Q22 2Q23 Liberty SiriusXM Group Operating income $ 472 $ 452 Depreciation and amortization 152 154 Stock compensation expense 50 46 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 18 Adjusted OIBDA $ 675 $ 694 Formula One Group Operating income $ 49 $ 52 Depreciation and amortization 93 84 Stock compensation expense 4 5 Adjusted OIBDA $ 146 $ 141 Braves Group Operating income $ 35 $ 19 Depreciation and amortization 17 19 Stock compensation expense 3 3 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) — 1 Adjusted OIBDA $ 55 $ 42 Liberty Media Corporation (Consolidated) Operating income $ 556 $ 523 Depreciation and amortization 262 257 Stock compensation expense 57 54 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 19 Adjusted OIBDA $ 876 $ 877 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Braves Holdings recorded $1 million of charges associated with hurricane damage to the Braves’ spring training facility located in North Port, Florida. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 2 This press release also includes a presentation of adjusted EBITDA of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone net income, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. SiriusXM adjusts EBITDA to exclude the impact of other expense (income) as well as certain other charges discussed below. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or adjusts for (if applicable): (i) loss on extinguishment of debt, (ii) share-based payment expense, (iii) impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, (iv) legal settlements/reserves and (v) other significant operating expense (income) that do not relate to the on-going performance of SiriusXM’s business. SiriusXM believes adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the underlying trend of its operating performance, which provides useful information about its business apart from the costs associated with its capital structure and purchase price accounting. SiriusXM believes investors find this non-GAAP financial measure useful when analyzing past operating performance with current performance and comparing SiriusXM’s operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. SiriusXM believes investors use adjusted EBITDA to estimate current enterprise value and to make investment decisions. As a result of large capital investments in SiriusXM’s satellite radio system, its results of operations reflect significant charges for depreciation expense. SiriusXM believes the exclusion of share-based payment expense is useful as it is not directly related to the operational conditions of its business. SiriusXM also believes the exclusion of impairment, restructuring and acquisition related costs, to the extent they occur during the period, is useful as they are significant expenses not incurred as part of its normal operations for the period. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to SiriusXM’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income of certain expenses, including share-based payment expense. SiriusXM endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by also providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate SiriusXM’s operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net income as disclosed in SiriusXM’s unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Since adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, SiriusXM’s calculation of adjusted EBITDA may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliation of net income to the adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Net income: $ 292 $ 310 Add back items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA: Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs(a) 1 18 Share-based payment expense 47 42 Depreciation and amortization 135 139 Interest expense 104 107 Other (income) expense 4 — Income tax expense 96 62 Adjusted EBITDA $ 679 $ 702 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 3 This press release also includes a presentation of free cash flow of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone cash flow provided by operating activities, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM’s free cash flow is derived from cash flow provided by operating activities plus insurance recoveries on its satellites, net of additions to property and equipment and purchases of other investments. Free cash flow is a metric that SiriusXM’s management and board of directors use to evaluate the cash generated by its operations, net of capital expenditures and other investment activity. In a capital intensive business, with significant investments in satellites, SiriusXM looks at its operating cash flow, net of these investing cash outflows, to determine cash available for future subscriber acquisition and capital expenditures, to repurchase or retire debt, to acquire other companies and to evaluate its ability to return capital to stockholders. SiriusXM excludes from free cash flow certain items that do not relate to the on-going performance of its business, such as cash flows related to acquisitions, strategic and short-term investments and net loan activity with related parties and other equity investees. SiriusXM believes free cash flow is an indicator of the long-term financial stability of its business. Free cash flow, which is reconciled to "Net cash provided by operating activities," is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure can be calculated by deducting amounts under the captions "Additions to property and equipment" and deducting or adding Restricted and other investment activity from "Net cash provided by operating activities" from the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow should be used in conjunction with other GAAP financial performance measures and may not be comparable to free cash flow measures presented by other companies. Free cash flow should be viewed as a supplemental measure rather than an alternative measure of cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is limited and does not represent remaining cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt maturities. SiriusXM believes free cash flow provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding its current cash flow, along with other GAAP measures (such as cash flows from operating and investing activities), to determine its financial condition, and to compare its operating performance to other communications, entertainment and media companies. Free cash flow is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Cash flow information Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Net cash used in investing activities $ (191 ) $ (130 ) Net cash used in financing activities $ (292 ) $ (323 ) Free cash flow Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Additions to property and equipment (99 ) (128 ) Purchases of other investments 1 — Free cash flow $ 435 $ 323 View source version on businesswire.com: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230803283098/en/Contacts Shane Kleinstein (720) 875-5432
Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty Media" or “Liberty”) (NASDAQ: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK) today reported second quarter 2023 results.

This action further simplifies our tracking stock structure and provides greater investor choice, while preserving Liberty’s optionality and flexibility,” said Greg Maffei, Liberty Media President and CEO. “At Formula 1, the quality of the fan experience at Grand Prix weekends continues to improve and is helping drive sellout crowds at many races. We saw the resilience of SiriusXM’s business through improved operating and financial results in the second quarter. Live Nation had yet another record quarter boosted by continued tailwinds in live events and strategic initiatives capitalizing on international growth.” Corporate Updates On July 18, 2023, Liberty Media completed the split-off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development (the “Split-Off”) into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. (“Atlanta Braves Holdings”). The Braves Group was a tracking stock of Liberty Media during the second quarter of 2023 and therefore its results are included in Liberty’s consolidated results for the second quarter. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. On August 3, 2023, Liberty Media completed the reclassification of its existing common stock to create the Liberty Live common stock (the “Reclassification”). Following the Reclassification, Liberty SiriusXM Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in SiriusXM, Formula One Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s ownership of F1 and other minority investments, and Liberty Live Group is comprised of Liberty Media’s interest in Live Nation and other minority investments. The Reclassification was completed after the second quarter of 2023 and therefore results of Liberty Live Group are not presented for purposes of this presentation, except for certain cases where assets and liabilities are presented as of June 30, 2023 adjusted for the Split-Off and the Reclassification for informational purposes only. In connection with the Split-Off, Liberty Media settled all intergroup interests. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Liberty SiriusXM Group was settled by attributing 1.8 million Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock to Liberty SiriusXM Group. Liberty SiriusXM Group intends to reduce debt by exchanging the shares with one or more third party lenders within one year of the Split-Off. The Braves Group intergroup interest held at Formula One Group was settled by distributing 6.8 million shares of Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock pro rata to holders of Liberty Formula One common stock. On July 12, 2023, Formula One Group paid $71 million to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle the 1.1 million share intergroup interest in Formula One Group attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group. During the second quarter of 2023, these intergroup interests had not yet been settled and are therefore reflected in the results in this presentation. Discussion of Results Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to the same period in 2022. LIBERTY SIRIUSXM GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group for the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, $12 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to Liberty SiriusXM Group. 2Q22 2Q23 % Change amounts in millions Liberty SiriusXM Group Revenue SiriusXM $ 2,254 $ 2,250 — % Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 2,254 $ 2,250 — % Operating Income (Loss) SiriusXM 479 464 (3 )% Corporate and other (7 ) (12 ) (71 )% Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 472 $ 452 (4 )% Adjusted OIBDA (Loss) SiriusXM 679 702 3 % Corporate and other (4 ) (8 ) (100 )% Total Liberty SiriusXM Group $ 675 $ 694 3 % SiriusXM is a separate publicly traded company and additional information about SiriusXM can be obtained through its website and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For presentation purposes on page one of this release, we include the results of SiriusXM, as reported by SiriusXM, without regard to the purchase accounting adjustments applied by us for purposes of our financial statements. Liberty Media believes the presentation of financial results as reported by SiriusXM is useful to investors as the comparability of those results is best understood in the context of SiriusXM's historical financial presentation. The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora, and an investment in Live Nation, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s interests in SiriusXM, which includes its subsidiary Pandora. FORMULA ONE GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Formula One Group for the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, Formula One Group incurred $17 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense). “Formula 1 is capitalizing on our growth momentum and our fans are engaging with the sport across traditional, digital and social media platforms. We congratulate Red Bull on their record-breaking performance season-to-date, and are thrilled to see the gaps closing across the rest of the grid to produce exciting rivalries on track,” said Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1 President and CEO. “Next year we will host 24 races around the globe, with back-to-back races in closer proximity which will benefit the efficiency of operations for both F1 and our teams.” 2Q22 2Q23 amounts in millions Formula One Group Revenue Formula 1 $ 744 $ 724 Total Formula One Group $ 744 $ 724 Operating Income (Loss) Formula 1 $ 65 $ 72 Corporate and other (16 ) (20 ) Total Formula One Group $ 49 $ 52 Adjusted OIBDA (Loss) Formula 1 $ 154 $ 155 Corporate and other (8 ) (14 ) Total Formula One Group $ 146 $ 141 The following table provides the operating results of Formula 1 (“F1”).

Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1’s revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion revenue, (ii) media rights fees and (iii) sponsorship fees. There were six races held in the second quarter of 2023, compared to seven races held in the second quarter of 2022. The Emilia-Romagna (“Imola”) Grand Prix originally scheduled for May 21, 2023 was cancelled following severe flooding in the region and is not expected to be rescheduled or replaced in 2023. There are now 22 events scheduled on the 2023 race calendar. Primary F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter with growth across race promotion and sponsorship offset by a decline in media rights revenue. Despite one less race held in the current period, race promotion revenue grew due to contractual increases in fees and sponsorship revenue increased due to recognition of revenue from new sponsors and growth in revenue from existing sponsors. Media rights revenue decreased due to the impact of lower proportionate recognition of season-based income (6/22 races took place took place in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 7/22 in the second quarter of 2022), partially offset by continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue and increased fees under new and renewed contractual agreements. Other F1 revenue decreased in the second quarter primarily due to lower freight income driven by the easing of freight cost inflation on billing rates and lower hospitality revenue due to one less race held in the current period, partially offset by increased licensing income and higher revenue related to Formula 2 / Formula 3 car chassis sales. Operating income increased and adjusted OIBDA(2) was relatively flat in the second quarter despite one less race taking place. Team payments were lower compared to the prior year due to the pro rata recognition of payments across the race season with one less race held, partially offset by an expectation of increased team payments for the full year. Other cost of F1 revenue is largely variable in nature and is mostly derived from servicing both Primary and Other F1 revenue opportunities. These costs increased as significantly lower freight costs were offset by increased hospitality costs associated with servicing higher Paddock Club attendance and cost inflation and higher commissions and partner servicing costs associated with growth in Primary F1 revenue streams. Other cost of F1 revenue in the current period also includes hospitality, travel and other costs related to the Imola event that had largely been incurred prior to the event’s late cancellation. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased in the second quarter due to lower personnel and legal costs and foreign exchange favorability, partially offset by higher marketing, property and IT costs. There were $7 million of costs associated with the planning of the Las Vegas Grand Prix included in selling, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2023. The businesses and assets attributed to Formula One Group during the second quarter of 2023 consisted of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1, other minority investments and an intergroup interest in Braves Group, and as of August 4, 2023, consist primarily of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1 and other minority investments. BRAVES GROUP - Liberty Media completed the Split-Off of the Braves and its associated mixed-use development into the separate public company Atlanta Braves Holdings (NASDAQ: BATRA, BATRK) on July 18, 2023. For discussion of the Braves results for the second quarter of 2023, please refer to the Atlanta Braves Holdings second quarter 2023 earnings press release which can be found on its website at https://www.bravesholdings.com/investors/financial-information/financial-results. Share Repurchases There were no repurchases of Liberty Media’s common stock from May 1, 2023 through July 31, 2023. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of August 1, 2023 is $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media tracking stocks. FOOTNOTES Liberty Media will discuss these headlines and other matters on Liberty Media's earnings conference call that will begin at 10:00 a.m. (E.T.) on August 4, 2023.

Cash adjusted for Split-Off and Reclassification reflects $71 million payment from Formula One Group to Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle intergroup interest and $67 million of cash on hand contributed to Liberty Live Group. c) Excludes restricted cash held in reserves pursuant to the terms of various financial obligations of $30 million and $52 million as of March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. d) In connection with the Reclassification Liberty Live Group was capitalized with $100 million of cash from Formula One Group, of which approximately $33 million came from the partial liquidation of monetizable public holdings previously held at Formula One Group. e) Outstanding principal amount of Senior Notes or Term Loan with no reduction for the net unamortized discount. f) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, certain investors exercised their right to require a Special Repurchase, as defined in the indenture governing the Pandora convertible senior notes, and Pandora repurchased $98 million principal amount of such notes with cash for an aggregate purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. g) Face amount of the convertible notes and exchangeable debentures with no fair market value adjustment. h) Includes SiriusXM revolving credit facility and term loan. i) Net debt to covenant OIBDA ratio of F1 operating business as defined in F1’s credit facilities for covenant calculations. Liberty Media, SiriusXM, F1 and the Braves are in compliance with their debt covenants as of June 30, 2023. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $119 million in the second quarter as net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM and capital expenditures and return of capital at SiriusXM more than offset cash from operations at SiriusXM. Included in the cash and cash equivalents balance attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group at June 30, 2023 is $51 million held at SiriusXM. Although SiriusXM is a consolidated subsidiary, it is a separate public company with a non-controlling interest, therefore Liberty Media does not have ready access to SiriusXM’s cash balance. Liberty SiriusXM Group received $78 million of dividends from SiriusXM during the quarter. Total debt attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $360 million during the quarter due to net debt repayment at both Liberty SiriusXM Group and SiriusXM. During the second quarter, Liberty SiriusXM Group paid $275 million to settle the remaining amount outstanding of its 2.125% exchangeable debentures due 2048. On August 3, 2023, in connection with the Reclassification, the 0.5% exchangeable debentures due 2050 and the Live Nation margin loan were attributed to Liberty Live Group. Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Formula One Group decreased $95 million during the quarter as cash from operations at F1 was more than offset by capital expenditures related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the purchase of investments. Total debt at Formula One Group was relatively flat in the second quarter. The margin on F1’s existing Term Loan B was permanently reduced from 3.25% to 3.00% during the second quarter as a result of F1’s reported leverage at March 31, 2023 as defined in its credit facilities for covenant calculations falling below a certain threshold. In connection with the Reclassification, the conversion consideration of the 1.375% cash convertible notes was adjusted such that the conversion rate is 23.1586 per bond and comprised of (i) 0.2547 of a share of new Series A Liberty Formula One common stock, (ii) 0.2650 of a share of new Series A Liberty Live common stock and (iii) 1.0163 shares of new Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock. Liberty Media also expects that its 3.75% Liberty SiriusXM Group convertible notes due 2028 (convertible into LSXMA) and its 2.25% Formula One Group convertible notes due 2027 (convertible into FWONK) will be adjusted to provide for the conversion and settlement of the notes into the reclassified Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group equities, respectively, at new conversion rates in accordance with each respective bond indenture. The relevant information will be communicated to bondholders pursuant to the terms of the bond indentures.

provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes a presentation of Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and Formula One Group, together with reconciliations to operating income, as determined under GAAP. Liberty Media defines Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, restructuring, acquisition and other related costs and impairment charges. Liberty Media believes Adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business’ performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because Adjusted OIBDA is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty Media views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is not meant to replace or supersede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty Media's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA for Liberty Media to operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2023, respectively. QUARTERLY SUMMARY (amounts in millions) 2Q22 2Q23 Liberty SiriusXM Group Operating income $ 472 $ 452 Depreciation and amortization 152 154 Stock compensation expense 50 46 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 18 Adjusted OIBDA $ 675 $ 694 Formula One Group Operating income $ 49 $ 52 Depreciation and amortization 93 84 Stock compensation expense 4 5 Adjusted OIBDA $ 146 $ 141 Braves Group Operating income $ 35 $ 19 Depreciation and amortization 17 19 Stock compensation expense 3 3 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) — 1 Adjusted OIBDA $ 55 $ 42 Liberty Media Corporation (Consolidated) Operating income $ 556 $ 523 Depreciation and amortization 262 257 Stock compensation expense 57 54 Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, net of recoveries(a) 1 19 Adjusted OIBDA $ 876 $ 877 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, Braves Holdings recorded $1 million of charges associated with hurricane damage to the Braves’ spring training facility located in North Port, Florida. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 2 This press release also includes a presentation of adjusted EBITDA of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone net income, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. SiriusXM adjusts EBITDA to exclude the impact of other expense (income) as well as certain other charges discussed below. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or adjusts for (if applicable): (i) loss on extinguishment of debt, (ii) share-based payment expense, (iii) impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs, (iv) legal settlements/reserves and (v) other significant operating expense (income) that do not relate to the on-going performance of SiriusXM’s business. SiriusXM believes adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the underlying trend of its operating performance, which provides useful information about its business apart from the costs associated with its capital structure and purchase price accounting. SiriusXM believes investors find this non-GAAP financial measure useful when analyzing past operating performance with current performance and comparing SiriusXM’s operating performance to the performance of other communications, entertainment and media companies. SiriusXM believes investors use adjusted EBITDA to estimate current enterprise value and to make investment decisions. As a result of large capital investments in SiriusXM’s satellite radio system, its results of operations reflect significant charges for depreciation expense. SiriusXM believes the exclusion of share-based payment expense is useful as it is not directly related to the operational conditions of its business. SiriusXM also believes the exclusion of impairment, restructuring and acquisition related costs, to the extent they occur during the period, is useful as they are significant expenses not incurred as part of its normal operations for the period. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to SiriusXM’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income of certain expenses, including share-based payment expense. SiriusXM endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by also providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. Investors that wish to compare and evaluate SiriusXM’s operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net income as disclosed in SiriusXM’s unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Since adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial performance measure, SiriusXM’s calculation of adjusted EBITDA may be susceptible to varying calculations; may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies; and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliation of net income to the adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Net income: $ 292 $ 310 Add back items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA: Legal settlements and reserves — 24 Impairment, restructuring and acquisition costs(a) 1 18 Share-based payment expense 47 42 Depreciation and amortization 135 139 Interest expense 104 107 Other (income) expense 4 — Income tax expense 96 62 Adjusted EBITDA $ 679 $ 702 (a) During the three months ended June 30, 2023, SiriusXM recorded impairments primarily related to terminated software projects of $10 million, severance and other related costs of $5 million and a cost-method investment impairment of $2 million. These charges have been excluded from adjusted OIBDA. SCHEDULE 3 This press release also includes a presentation of free cash flow of SiriusXM, which is a non-GAAP financial measure used by SiriusXM, together with a reconciliation to SiriusXM's stand-alone cash flow provided by operating activities, as determined under GAAP. SiriusXM’s free cash flow is derived from cash flow provided by operating activities plus insurance recoveries on its satellites, net of additions to property and equipment and purchases of other investments. Free cash flow is a metric that SiriusXM’s management and board of directors use to evaluate the cash generated by its operations, net of capital expenditures and other investment activity. In a capital intensive business, with significant investments in satellites, SiriusXM looks at its operating cash flow, net of these investing cash outflows, to determine cash available for future subscriber acquisition and capital expenditures, to repurchase or retire debt, to acquire other companies and to evaluate its ability to return capital to stockholders. SiriusXM excludes from free cash flow certain items that do not relate to the on-going performance of its business, such as cash flows related to acquisitions, strategic and short-term investments and net loan activity with related parties and other equity investees. SiriusXM believes free cash flow is an indicator of the long-term financial stability of its business. Free cash flow, which is reconciled to "Net cash provided by operating activities," is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure can be calculated by deducting amounts under the captions "Additions to property and equipment" and deducting or adding Restricted and other investment activity from "Net cash provided by operating activities" from the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow should be used in conjunction with other GAAP financial performance measures and may not be comparable to free cash flow measures presented by other companies. Free cash flow should be viewed as a supplemental measure rather than an alternative measure of cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is limited and does not represent remaining cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt maturities. SiriusXM believes free cash flow provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding its current cash flow, along with other GAAP measures (such as cash flows from operating and investing activities), to determine its financial condition, and to compare its operating performance to other communications, entertainment and media companies. Free cash flow is calculated as follows: Unaudited For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 2023 ($ in millions) Cash flow information Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Net cash used in investing activities $ (191 ) $ (130 ) Net cash used in financing activities $ (292 ) $ (323 ) Free cash flow Net cash provided by operating activities $ 533 $ 451 Additions to property and equipment (99 ) (128 ) Purchases of other investments 1 — Free cash flow $ 435 $ 323 View source version on businesswire.com: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230803283098/en/
