a)	Includes $81 million and $74 million of amortization related to purchase accounting as of March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, respectively, that is excluded from calculations for purposes of team payments.

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 two races held in the first quarter of both 2022 and 2023. There are 23 events scheduled for the 2023 race calendar.

Primary F1 revenue increased in the first quarter with growth across media rights, race promotion and sponsorship. Media rights revenue increased due to continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue and increased fees under new and renewed contractual agreements. Race promotion revenue grew due to contractual increases in fees, and sponsorship revenue increased due to the recognition of revenue from new sponsors and growth in revenue from existing sponsors. Other F1 revenue decreased in the first quarter primarily due to lower freight income driven by the easing of freight cost inflation on billing rates, partially offset by increased hospitality revenue from higher Paddock Club attendance.

Operating income was relatively flat and adjusted OIBDA⁽²⁾ decreased in the first quarter. Team payments were higher compared to the prior year due to the pro rata recognition of increased payments across the race season. 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 were relatively flat, as significantly lower freight costs were largely offset by increased Paddock Club costs associated with servicing higher hospitality attendance at the two events held in the first quarter, and higher commissions and partner servicing costs associated with increased Primary F1 revenue streams, including F1 TV subscriptions. Selling, general and administrative expense increased in the first quarter due to higher personnel, IT and marketing costs. There

were approximately $6 million of costs associated with the planning of the Las Vegas Grand Prix included in selling, general and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2023.

The Liberty SiriusXM Group has an approximate 0.4% intergroup interest (1.1 million notional shares) in the Formula One Group attributed to it as of April 30, 2023. These shares are not included in the outstanding share count of Formula One Group in Liberty Media’s most recent Form 10-Q. Assuming the issuance of the shares underlying this intergroup interest, the Formula One Group outstanding share count as of April 30, 2023 would have been 235 million.

The businesses and assets attributed to the Formula One Group consist of Liberty Media’s subsidiary F1, other minority investments and an intergroup interest in the Braves Group.

BRAVES GROUP - The following table provides the financial results attributed to the Braves Group for the first quarter of 2023. In the first quarter, approximately $6 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to the Braves Group.

Number of home games in period		—		—

Baseball revenue is derived from two primary sources: (i) ballpark event revenue (ticket sales, concessions, advertising sponsorships, suites and premium seat fees) and (ii) broadcasting revenue (including national and local broadcast rights). Mixed-use development revenue is derived from the Battery Atlanta mixed-use facilities and primarily includes rental income.

In December 2021, the Collective Bargaining Agreement (“CBA”), which requires MLB clubs to sign players using a uniform contract, expired and MLB commenced a lockout of the Major League players. As a result of the lockout, the start of the 2022 regular season was delayed and the number of spring training games played was reduced. The start of the 2023 season was not impacted by these factors and a full spring training schedule took place. No regular season home games were played in the first quarter of 2023 nor the prior year period.

Baseball revenue increased in the first quarter due to more spring training home games and additional special events held at the ballpark compared to the prior year period. Development revenue increased during the first quarter due to increases in rental income related to tenant recoveries.

Operating income and adjusted OIBDA decreased in the first quarter. Revenue growth was more than offset by increased operating costs due to higher player salaries, as player salary expense was not recognized in the prior year period due to the delayed start of the season, as well as higher levels of MLB shared expenses, baseball operations expenses and facility and game day expenses for spring training games. Selling, general and administrative expense increased modestly due to increased promotion and marketing initiatives and higher personnel costs.

The Formula One Group has an approximate 11.0% intergroup interest (6.8 million notional shares) and the Liberty SiriusXM Group has an approximate 2.9% intergroup interest (1.8 million notional shares) in the Braves Group attributed to them as of April 30, 2023. These shares are not included in the outstanding share count of the Braves Group in Liberty Media’s most recent Form 10-Q. Assuming the issuance of the shares underlying these intergroup interests, the Braves Group outstanding share count as of April 30, 2023 would have been 62 million.

The businesses and assets attributed to the Braves Group consist primarily of Liberty Media’s subsidiary the Braves, which indirectly owns the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball Club and certain assets and liabilities associated with the Braves’ ballpark and mixed-use development.

Share Repurchases

There were no repurchases of Liberty Media’s common stock (NASDAQ: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, FWONA, FWONK, BATRA, BATRK) from February 1, 2023 through April 30, 2023. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of May 1, 2023 is approximately $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media Corporation tracking stocks.

Represents the fair value of the equity investment in Live Nation. In accordance with GAAP, Liberty Media accounts for its investment in the equity of Live Nation using the equity method of accounting and includes it in its condensed consolidated balance sheet at $158 million and $157 million as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, respectively.

Represents the carrying value of other public holdings that are accounted for at fair value. Includes approximately $126 million of exchange-traded funds as of March 31, 2023 that are expected to be contributed to Liberty Live Group upon the reclassification of the tracking stocks. Excludes intergroup interests.

Fair Value of Intergroup Assets and Liabilities

The intergroup interests represent quasi-equity interests which are not represented by outstanding shares of common stock; rather, the Formula One Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group have attributed interests in the Braves Group, which are generally stated in terms of a number of shares of Liberty Braves common stock, and the Liberty SiriusXM Group also has an attributed interest in the Formula One Group, which is generally stated in terms of a number of shares of Liberty Formula One common stock. Each reporting period, the notional shares representing the intergroup interests are marked

to fair value. The changes in fair value are recorded in the unrealized gains (losses) on the intergroup interest line item in the unaudited attributed condensed consolidated statements of operations. In connection with the previously announced split-off of Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc., the intergroup interests in the Braves Group attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group will be settled and extinguished in connection with the split-off.

The Braves Group will attribute shares of New BATRA and New BATRK to Liberty SiriusXM Group and Formula One Group, respectively, on a one-for-one basis equal to the number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest attributed to each immediately prior to the split-off. Following the split-off: (i) Liberty SiriusXM Group intends to deliver the shares of New BATRA to and exchange such New BATRA shares with one or more third party lenders for satisfaction of certain debt obligations of Liberty SiriusXM Group and (ii) the new BATRK shares attributed to Formula One Group will be distributed on a pro rata basis to Formula One Group common shareholders.

The intergroup interest in the Formula One Group attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group will be settled and extinguished through the attribution of cash prior to the split-off.

a)	Includes $57 million and $53 million of cash held at SiriusXM as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, respectively.

b)	Includes $752 million and $1,043 million of cash held at F1 as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, respectively.

d)	Outstanding principal amount of Senior Notes or Term Loan with no reduction for the net unamortized discount.

During the three months ended March 31, 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 $75 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.

f)	Face amount of the convertible notes and exchangeable debentures with no fair market value adjustment.

g)	Includes SiriusXM revolving credit facility and term loan.

h)	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 March 31, 2023.

Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group increased $68 million in the first quarter as net debt repayment at Liberty SiriusXM Group (described below) and return of capital at SiriusXM were more than offset by cash received from the settlement of a portion of the Formula One Group intergroup interest held at Liberty SiriusXM Group (described below), cash from operations at SiriusXM and borrowings under the revolving credit facility at SiriusXM. Included in the cash and cash equivalents balance attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group at March 31, 2023 is $53 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 $77 million of dividends from SiriusXM during the quarter.

Total debt attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group decreased $73 million during the quarter. During the first quarter, Liberty SiriusXM Group issued $575 million aggregate principal amount of 3.75% LSXMA convertible notes due 2028 and used net proceeds of the offering, together with cash on hand, to repurchase (i) $591 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.375% cash convertible notes due 2023 and (ii) $112 million aggregate adjusted principal amount of its 2.125% exchangeable debentures due 2048, for a total cost of $774 million. In addition to proceeds from the convertible notes, Liberty SiriusXM Group received (i) $39 million of net proceeds from the settlement of the bond hedge and warrants related to the portion of the 1.375% cash convertible notes repurchased and (ii) $202 million of cash from the Formula One Group in exchange for the cancellation of 3.1 million notional shares underlying a portion of the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by Liberty SiriusXM Group (equivalent to the FWONA common stock underlying the portion of the 1.375% cash convertible notes repurchased). In addition, subsequent to quarter end in April 2023, Liberty SiriusXM Group paid $275 million to settle the remaining amount outstanding of its 2.125% exchangeable debentures due 2048, which was funded with cash on hand.

Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to the Formula One Group decreased $149 million during the quarter as cash from operations at F1 was more than offset by $202 million paid to Liberty SiriusXM Group in exchange for the cancellation of 3.1 million FWONA shares underlying the intergroup interest (described above), $120 million of exchange-traded funds purchased that are expected to be attributed to the Liberty Live Group after the completion of the previously announced reclassification of tracking stocks and capital expenditures related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Total debt at Formula One Group decreased $32 million in the first quarter primarily due to the January 2023 settlement of the remaining 1% FWONK cash convertible notes.

Pursuant to F1’s credit facilities agreement, the margin on its existing Term Loan B will be permanently reduced from 3.25% to 3.00% after the first quarter as a result of F1’s leverage as defined in its credit facilities for covenant calculations falling below a certain threshold.

Total cash and cash equivalents attributed to the Braves Group increased $64 million during the quarter due to cash from operations. Total debt attributed to the Braves Group decreased $4 million during the first quarter primarily due to repayment under the ballpark senior secured note.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES

SCHEDULE 1

To 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 the Liberty SiriusXM Group, the Braves Group and the 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 March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, respectively.

(a)	During the three months ended March 31, 2023, SiriusXM recorded $23 million associated with severance and other employee costs and $9 million primarily related to a vacated office space. 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 the legal settlements and reserves, impairment, restructuring and acquisition related costs, and loss on extinguishment of debt, 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 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:

Income tax (benefit) expense		100		75
Adjusted EBITDA	$	690	$	625

(a)	During the three months ended March 31, 2023, SiriusXM recorded $23 million associated with severance and other employee costs and $9 million primarily related to a vacated office space. 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, 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:
