| (2) | During the fiscal 2017 first quarter, the Company refined its approach to allocating its corporate, venue operating and other shared expenses. Prior period results are reflected as originally reported and have not been restated. Had this approach been used in fiscal 2016, MSG Sports operating income and MSG Entertainment operating loss for the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter would have increased by approximately $1.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively, while Other operating loss would have increased by $1.6 million. Further, MSG Sports adjusted operating income and MSG Entertainment adjusted operating loss for the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter would have improved by approximately $1.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, while Other adjusted operating loss would have increased by $2.2 million. |
| (3) | Fiscal 2017 fourth quarter financial results include TAO Group’s operating results for the period from February 1, 2017 to March 26, 2017. The Company records TAO Group’s operating results in its consolidated statements of operations on a three-month lag basis. |

MSG Entertainment
For the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter as compared to the prior year period, MSG Entertainment revenues of $125.9 million increased 50%. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of operating results for TAO Group and Boston Calling Events and, to a lesser extent, higher venue-related sponsorship and signage revenues. This was partially offset by lower event-related revenues at the Company’s venues and lower revenues for theNew York Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettesproduction. The decrease in event-related revenues was primarily due to lower event-related revenues at The Garden, the Beacon Theatre and The Chicago Theatre, partially offset by higher event-related revenues at Radio City Music Hall. The decrease in revenues for theNew York Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettesproduction was a result of no performances being held in the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter as compared to 21 shows in the prior year period.
Fiscal 2017 fourth quarter operating loss of $46.1 million increased by $28.3 million and adjusted operating loss of $39.2 million increased by $26.0 million. The increase in operating loss and adjusted operating loss primarily reflects higher direct operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenues.
The increase in direct operating expenses primarily reflects a $33.6 million write-off of the remaining deferred production costs for theNew York Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettesproduction and the inclusion of operating results for TAO Group and Boston Calling Events. This was partially offset by lower operating costs for theNew York Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettesproduction (a result of no performances being held in the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter as compared to 21 shows in the prior year period) and, to a lesser extent, lower event-related expenses at the Company’s venues. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the inclusion of TAO Group operating results and, to a lesser extent, higher corporate general and administrative costs.
MSG Sports
For the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter as compared to the prior year period, MSG Sports revenues of $179.6 million increased 35%. The increase in revenues was due to higher league distributions and playoff-related revenues and, to a lesser extent, higher professional sports teams’ sponsorship and signage revenues and media rights fees from MSG Networks Inc., partially offset by lower event-related revenues from other live sporting events and other net decreases. The increase in league distributions reflects $15 million in non-recurring NHL and NBA distributions and, to a lesser extent, the impact of the NBA’s new national media rights agreements. The increase in playoff-related revenues was primarily due to additional home playoff games as compared to the prior year quarter.
Fiscal 2017 fourth quarter operating income decreased by $3.0 million to $9.8 million and adjusted operating income decreased by $3.9 million to $14.5 million. The decrease in operating income and adjusted operating income was primarily due to an increase in direct operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the increase in revenues.
The increase in direct operating expenses was primarily due to an increase in net provisions for certain team personnel transactions, higher playoff-related expenses and, to a lesser extent, higher team compensation costs. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the impact of severance-related costs associated with the separation agreement with a team executive.
Corporate and Other
For the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter, Corporate and Other operating loss of $44.2 million increased by $3.1 million, primarily due to higher employee compensation and related benefits (including share-based compensation expense) and other net increases, partially offset by the absence of a $6.9 million reorganization charge recorded in the prior year fourth quarter. Fiscal 2017 fourth quarter adjusted operating loss of $18.9 million improved by $0.1 million, primarily due to the absence of the reorganization charge recorded in the prior year fourth quarter, offset by an increase in employee compensation and related benefits (excluding share-based compensation expense) and other net increases.
Purchase Accounting Adjustments
For the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter, the operating loss related to purchase accounting adjustments was $11.9 million, the majority of which reflects expense related to the step-up in value of TAO Group’s inventory and leases.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We define adjusted operating income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) before 1) depreciation, amortization and impairments of property and equipment and intangible assets, 2) share-based compensation expense or benefit, 3) restructuring charges or credits, 4) gains or losses on sales or dispositions of businesses and 5) the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to business acquisitions. Because it is based upon operating income (loss), adjusted operating income (loss) also excludes interest expense (including cash interest expense) and other non-operating income and expense items. We believe that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense or benefit allows investors to better track the performance of the various operating units of our business without regard to the settlement of an obligation that is not expected to be made in cash.
We believe adjusted operating income (loss) is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our business segments and the Company on a consolidated basis. Adjusted operating income (loss) and similar measures with similar titles are common performance measures used by investors and analysts to analyze our performance. Internally, we use revenues and adjusted operating income (loss) measures as the most important indicators of our business performance, and evaluate management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Adjusted operating income (loss) should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, and other measures of performance and/or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Since adjusted operating income (loss) is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures with similar titles used by other companies. For a reconciliation of adjusted operating income (loss) to operating income (loss), please see page 4 of this release.
