SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes in our prospectus dated April 28, 2021, filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (referred to herein as the “Prospectus”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. The interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company concluded there was a revision required to the presentation of Zuffa Parent, LLC’s (“Zuffa”) distributions to Silver Lake and the related issuances of common stock units and the convertible promissory note by the Company in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the first three quarters of 2020. Such distributions and related issuances are described in Note 12. The Company originally reported these distributions and the related issuances as financing cash flows rather than correctly presenting them as non-cash non-cash Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying disclosures. Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, content cost amortization and impairment, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities associated with acquisitions, the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment, consolidation, investments, redeemable non-controlling Management evaluates these estimates using historical experience and other factors, including the general economic environment and actions it may take in the future. The Company adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. However, these estimates may involve significant uncertainties and judgments and cannot be determined with precision. In addition, these estimates are based on management’s best judgment at a point in time and as such, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Changes in estimates resulting from weakness in the economic environment or other factors beyond the Company’s control could be material and would be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future periods.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Claims and Litigation The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations arising in the normal course of business. The types of allegations that arise in connection with such legal proceedings vary in nature, but can include contract, employment, tax and intellectual property matters. The Company evaluates all cases and records liabilities for losses from legal proceedings when the Company determines that it is probable that the outcome will be unfavorable and the amount, or potential range, of loss can be reasonably estimated. While any outcome related to litigation or such governmental proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the outcome of these matters, except as otherwise may be discussed below, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. An employee of the Company is one of several individuals and entities named in a complaint by India’s Director of Enforcement (“DE”), initially filed in January 2015, alleging violations of the Foreign Exchange Management Act (“FEMA”). The complaint alleges that the employee participated as an advisor in a series of transactions in 2009 that were completed by and on behalf of a client, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (the “BCCI”), and that contravened two provisions of FEMA. The subject transactions were pursued under the direction and control of one of the BCCI’s board members. The Company is not alleged to have possessed any funds improperly or to have made or received any of the payments that are alleged to have violated FEMA. The Company is cooperating with the DE’s investigation which, at present, is in its early stages. In July 2017, the Italian Competition Authority (“ICA”) issued on-site In July 2019, three football clubs and in June 2020, the Serie A football league (Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A or “Lega Nazionale”, and together with the three clubs, the “Plaintiffs”) each filed separate claims against IMG and certain other unrelated parties in the Court of Milan, Italy, alleging that IMG engaged in anti-competitive practices with regard to bidding for certain media rights of the Serie A and Serie B football leagues. The Plaintiffs seek damages from all defendants in amounts totalling EUR 554.6 million in the aggregate relating to the three football clubs and million relating to Lega Nazionale, along with attorneys’ fees and costs (the “Damages Claims”). Since December 2020, four additional football clubs have each filed requests to intervene in the Lega Nazionale proceedings and individually seek to claim amounts in the aggregate totalling EUR 251.5 million. Ten other clubs also filed requests to intervene in support of Lega Nazionale’s claim or alternatively to individually claim in the amount of million, in the case of one club, and unspecified amounts (to be quantified as a percentage of the total amount sought by Lega Nazionale) in the other nine cases. Collectively, the interventions of these 14 clubs are the “Interventions”. The Company intends to defend against the Damages Claims, Interventions and any related claims, and management believes that the Company has meritorious defenses to these claims, including the absence of standing of the clubs, and the absence of actual damage. The Company may also be subject to regulatory and other claims and actions with respect to these ICA and other regulatory matters. Any judgment entered against the Company or settlement entered into, including with respect to claims or actions brought by other parties, could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Zuffa has related class-action lawsuits filed against it in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the “District Court”) between and by a total of former UFC fighters. The complaints in the lawsuits are substantially identical. Each alleges that Zuffa violated Section of the Sherman Act by monopolizing the alleged market for the promotion of elite professional MMA bouts and monopolizing the alleged market for elite professional MMA Fighters’ services. Plaintiffs claim that Zuffa’s alleged conduct injured them by artificially depressing the compensation they received for their services and their intellectual property rights, and they seek treble damages under the antitrust laws, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs, and injunctive relief. On December , , the District Court orally indicated its intention to grant Plaintiffs’ motion to certify the Bout Class (comprised of fighters who participated in bouts from December , to June , and to deny Plaintiffs’ motion to certify the Identity Class (a purported class based upon the alleged expropriation and exploitation of fighter identities). The Company is awaiting the official written order from the judge and assuming he rules as previously indicated, then the Company will seek an appeal of this decision. Management believes that the Company has meritorious defenses against the allegations and intends to defend itself vigorously. In February 2021, the Company signed a new franchise agreement and side letter (the “Franchise Agreements”) directly with the Writer’s Guild of America East and the Writer’s Guild of America West (collectively, the “WGA”). These Franchise Agreements include terms that, among other things, prohibit the Company from (a) negotiating packaging deals after June , and (b) having more than a % non-controlling ownership or other financial interest in, or being owned or affiliated with any individual or entity that has more than a % non-controlling ownership or other financial interest in, any entity or individual engaged in the production or distribution of works written by WGA members under a WGA collective bargaining agreement. The Franchise Agreements provide for a transition period for the Company to come into compliance with certain of its provisions. During the term of the Franchise Agreements, until the Company is in compliance, the Franchise Agreements require that the Company place into escrow (i) an amount equal to Endeavor Content’s after-tax gross profits from the production of works written by WGA members under a WGA collective bargaining agreement and (ii) an amount equal to the Company’s after tax writer commissions and package fees received in connection with such Endeavor Content productions.

Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes in our prospectus dated April 28, 2021, filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (referred to herein as the “Prospectus”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. The interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company concluded there was a revision required to the presentation of Zuffa Parent, LLC’s (“Zuffa”) distributions to Silver Lake and the related issuances of common stock units and the convertible promissory note by the Company in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the first three quarters of 2020. Such distributions and related issuances are described in Note 12. The Company originally reported these distributions and the related issuances as financing cash flows rather than correctly presenting them as non-cash non-cash
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying disclosures. Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, content cost amortization and impairment, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities associated with acquisitions, the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment, consolidation, investments, redeemable non-controlling Management evaluates these estimates using historical experience and other factors, including the general economic environment and actions it may take in the future. The Company adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. However, these estimates may involve significant uncertainties and judgments and cannot be determined with precision. In addition, these estimates are based on management’s best judgment at a point in time and as such, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Changes in estimates resulting from weakness in the economic environment or other factors beyond the Company’s control could be material and would be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future periods.
