“Formula 1 capped off a record 2024 in race count, revenue and Adjusted OIBDA,” said Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1 President and CEO. “We are equally optimistic about 2025 as we mark F1’s 75th anniversary which will provide incremental momentum for our brand, and we celebrated this milestone by welcoming the entire F1 community to a first of its kind season launch event at The O2 last week. Our sponsorship roster is the strongest in the sport’s history and the commercial pipeline remains robust. This commercial success is paired with on-track excitement, as we expect more

intense competition after last season’s highly competitive Championship and we welcome several rookie drivers to the grid.”

a) Includes amortization related to purchase accounting of $74 million and $61 million for the fourth quarters of 2023 and 2024, respectively, and $298 million and $244 million for the full years 2023 and 2024, respectively, which 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. For the year ended December 31, 2024, these revenue streams comprised 29.3%, 32.8% and 18.6%, respectively, of total F1 revenue.

There were 24 and 6 races held in the full year and fourth quarter of 2024, respectively, compared to 22 and 6 races held in the full year and fourth quarter of 2023. In the fourth quarter of both 2024 and 2023, F1 directly promoted the Las Vegas Grand Prix and recognized the revenue (ticketing, sponsorship, hospitality) and costs related to the event.

3

Primary F1 revenue grew for the full year with increases across all primary revenue streams. Sponsorship revenue grew due to recognition of revenue from new sponsors, contractual increases from existing sponsors and additional sponsorship inventory with two additional races held. Media rights revenue increased due to contractual increases in fees and continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue. Race promotion revenue grew primarily due to fees from the two additional races held compared to the prior year, following the return of China and Imola to the calendar, as well as contractual increases in fees, partially offset by lower ticketing revenue generated from the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Primary F1 revenue decreased in the fourth quarter primarily driven by a decline in race promotion and media rights revenue. Race promotion revenue decreased due to lower ticketing revenue generated from the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Media rights revenue declined due to the lower proportionate recognition of season-based income (6/24 races took place in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to 6/22 in the fourth quarter of 2023), partially offset by continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue. Sponsorship revenue increased in the fourth quarter due to recognition of revenue from new sponsors, which offset the lower proportion of season-based revenue recognized.

Other F1 revenue decreased in the full year and fourth quarter. Growth in hospitality income at most events and higher freight and licensing revenue was offset by lower hospitality revenue generated from the Las Vegas Grand Prix. For the full year, Other F1 revenue also benefited from the sale of new F2 cars and associated parts at the beginning of the new F2 vehicle cycle.

Operating income and Adjusted OIBDA⁽²⁾ grew for the full year. Team payments increased for the full year driven by the growth in F1 revenue and the associated impact on the calculation of the team payments, which are 100% variable under the 2021 Concorde Agreement. Team payments as a percent of pre-team payment Adjusted OIBDA decreased from 62.6% in 2023 to 61.5% in 2024 reflecting growth in Adjusted OIBDA and an associated reduction on the payout percentage calculated under the terms of the 2021 Concorde Agreement. 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 in the full year primarily due to the annual impact of lease expense for the Las Vegas Grand Prix Plaza which became operational in November of 2023, as well as higher commissions and partner servicing costs associated with servicing Primary F1 revenue streams, the costs of supplying the new F2 cars and associated parts and increased freight, technical, digital and FIA regulatory costs from the additional races held. This was partially offset by lower event promotion, hospitality and experiences costs incurred in promoting and delivering the Las Vegas Grand Prix compared to the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expense increased for the full year driven by higher personnel, marketing, IT and property costs as well as legal and other professional fees, partially offset by foreign exchange favorability.

4

Operating income and Adjusted OIBDA decreased in the fourth quarter primarily due to the decline in revenue. Team payments decreased due to the lower pro rata recognition of payments across the race season and a reduction in team payment costs based on full year results. Other cost of F1 revenue decreased in the fourth quarter primarily due to reduced costs in promoting and delivering the Las Vegas Grand Prix, partially offset by increased freight costs and higher commissions and partner servicing costs. Selling, general and administrative expense increased in the fourth quarter due to higher marketing, personnel, IT and property costs as well as legal and other professional fees, partially offset by foreign exchange favorability.

Corporate and Other Operating Results

Corporate and Other revenue grew in the full year and fourth quarter due to the inclusion of Quint results and $33 million and $13 million of rental income related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Plaza recognized in the full year and fourth quarter, respectively. In the fourth quarter, Quint results were primarily driven by F1 Experiences across the six races held. Quint’s revenue is seasonal around its largest events, which are generally during the second and fourth quarters.

Corporate and Other operating income and Adjusted OIBDA for the full year and fourth quarter of 2024 include the rental income related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Plaza, Quint results and other corporate overhead.

LIBERTY LIVE GROUP – Liberty Live Group was allocated $4 million and $11 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) in the fourth quarter and full year 2024, respectively.

The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Live Group consist primarily of Liberty Media’s interest in Live Nation and other minority investments.

Share Repurchases

There were no repurchases of Liberty Media’s common stock from November 1, 2024 through January 31, 2025. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of February 1, 2025 is $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media tracking stocks.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

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 Formula One Group and Liberty Live 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 and years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
