Operating Results
On April 15, 2016, jvid视频 completed the recapitalization (the 鈥淩ecapitalization鈥�) of its common stock into three new tracking stock groups: (i) the Liberty SiriusXM Group, (ii) the Braves Group and (iii) the Formula One Group. For purposes of presentation herein, the assets and liabilities of jvid视频 have been allocated among the three tracking stocks as if the Recapitalization had occurred on January 1, 2016. This is intended to supplement and enhance the information included in our prior period financial statements, but is not intended to provide a comprehensive view of what each tracking stock group's performance would have been had the Recapitalization actually occurred on such date.

Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to the same period in 2016.

LIBERTY SIRIUSXM GROUP 鈥� The following table provides the financial results attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group for the first quarter of 2017. In the first quarter, approximately $9 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to the Liberty SiriusXM Group.

The increases in Liberty SiriusXM Group revenue, operating income and adjusted OIBDA⁽²⁾ were primarily attributable to an increase in SiriusXM鈥檚 daily weighted average number of subscribers and an increase in SiriusXM鈥檚 average monthly revenue per subscriber due to certain rate increases.

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. SiriusXM reported its stand-alone first quarter results on April 27, 2017. For additional detail on SiriusXM鈥檚 financial results for the first quarter, please see SiriusXM鈥檚 earnings release posted to their Investor Relations website. 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. jvid视频 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. For a reconciliation of revenue, adjusted OIBDA (as defined by jvid视频) and operating income for SiriusXM's stand-alone operating results as reported by SiriusXM to those results as reported by jvid视频, see Liberty Media's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group consist primarily of jvid视频鈥檚 interest in SiriusXM.

BRAVES GROUP - The following table provides the financial results attributed to the Braves Group for the first quarter of 2017. In the first quarter, approximately $1 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to the Braves Group.

The increase in Braves Group revenue in the quarter was primarily attributable to revenue from an exhibition game played at SunTrust Park on March 31, 2017, whereas no games were played during the first quarter of 2016. Losses in operating income and adjusted OIBDA improved compared to the prior year due to a decrease in other operating expenses, primarily driven by the acceleration of player salary expense as a result of released or injured players in 2016, partially offset by costs associated with the ballpark operations and mixed-use project.

The Formula One Group holds an approximate 15.5% intergroup interest in the Braves Group as of April 30, 2017. Assuming the issuance of the shares underlying the intergroup interest held by the Formula One Group, the Braves Group outstanding share count as of April 30, 2017 would have been 58.6 million.

The businesses and assets attributed to the Braves Group consist primarily of jvid视频鈥檚 subsidiary Braves Holdings, LLC, which indirectly owns the Atlanta Braves major league baseball team, and certain assets and liabilities associated with its ballpark and mixed-use development project.

FORMULA ONE GROUP 鈥� The following table provides the financial results attributed to the Formula One Group for the first quarter of 2017. In the first quarter, the Formula One Group incurred approximately $20 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense).

鈥淭he 2017 season is off to a competitive start, and we are excited for upcoming races in Barcelona and Monaco,鈥� said Chase Carey, Formula 1 Chairman and CEO. 鈥淩oss, Sean and I appreciate the collaborative relationships we have with the FIA, our teams, promoters and partners and look forward to making F1 even better for the fans.鈥�

Liberty completed the acquisition of F1 on January 23, 2017. The decrease in Formula One Group operating income in the quarter was primarily attributed to the Vivendi legal settlement received in the prior year (net pre-tax gain of approximately $511 million) and purchase accounting adjustments related to the F1 transaction. From the date of the acquisition, Liberty applied purchase accounting and consolidated the results of F1. Liberty maintained an investment in F1 from September 7, 2016 until January 23, 2017, which was accounted for as a cost investment. For comparison and discussion purposes, the pro forma results of F1 are presented below for the full three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, inclusive of purchase accounting adjustments, as if the acquisition of F1 occurred on January 1, 2016. The purchase price allocation related to the F1 business combination and pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made available solely for the purpose of providing comparative pro forma condensed consolidated financial information. The financial information below is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the results of operations of F1 would actually have been had the business combination occurred on January 1, 2016, or to project the results of operations of Liberty for any future periods.

Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1鈥檚 revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion fees, (ii) broadcasting fees and (iii) advertising & sponsorship fees. Primary F1 revenue increased in the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to contractual rate increases in race promotion fees and advertising & sponsorship. Broadcast revenue also increased due to higher contractual rates and the impact of slightly higher proportionate recognition of season-based income during the quarter (1/20 races in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 1/21 races in the first quarter of 2016), which more than offset the adverse impact of weaker prevailing foreign currency exchange rates used to translate a small number of Pound and Euro-denominated contracts into US dollars. The increase in Primary F1 revenue was partially offset by a reduction in other Formula 1 revenue, largely due to lower required equipment purchases by GP3 series鈥� competing teams for the 2017 season. Operating income decreased primarily due to stock-based compensation related to awards granted to members of F1 management. Adjusted OIBDA increased primarily due to a reduction in operating expenses attributable to lower costs of supplying equipment to GP3 teams, partially offset by modest increases in selling, general and administrative expense as a result of additional headcount following the acquisition by Liberty and team payments due to higher pro rata recognition of full year team payments.

The businesses and assets attributed to the Formula One Group consist of all of jvid视频鈥檚 businesses and assets other than those attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group and the Braves Group, including Liberty Media鈥檚 subsidiary F1, its interest in Live Nation, minority equity investments in Time Warner and Viacom and an intergroup interest in the Braves Group. There are approximately 9.1 million notional shares underlying the Formula One Group鈥檚 15.5% intergroup interest in the Braves Group.

Share Repurchases

There were no repurchases of Series A or Series C Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Series A or Series C Liberty Braves common stock or Series A or Series C Liberty Formula One common stock from the Recapitalization through April 30, 2017. The total remaining repurchase authorization for jvid视频 is approximately $1.3 billion and can be applied to repurchases of Series A and Series C shares of any of the jvid视频 Corporation tracking stocks.

FOOTNOTES

NOTES

The following financial information with respect to jvid视频's equity affiliates and available for sale securities is intended to supplement jvid视频's condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations to be included in its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017.

Cash and Debt
The following presentation is provided to separately identify cash and liquid investments and debt information.

Total cash and liquid investments attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group increased $43 million during the quarter primarily as a result of cash from operations and net debt borrowings, partially offset by stock repurchases, dividends paid to shareholders and capital expenditures at SiriusXM. Included in the cash and liquid investments balance attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group at March 31, 2017 is $230 million held at SiriusXM. Although SiriusXM is a consolidated subsidiary, it is a separate public company with a significant non-controlling interest, therefore jvid视频 does not have ready access to SiriusXM鈥檚 cash balance.

Total debt attributed to Liberty SiriusXM Group increased $137 million during the quarter primarily due to borrowings under SiriusXM鈥檚 revolving credit facility.

Total cash and liquid investments attributed to the Braves Group increased $8 million during the quarter, as capital expenditures related to the construction of the new ballpark and adjacent mixed-use development were more than offset by additional borrowings and other investing activities.

As of March 31, 2017, approximately $653 million had been spent on the new ballpark, of which approximately $378 million of funding was provided by Cobb County and related entities and $275 million provided by the Braves. As of March 31, 2017, approximately $354 million had been spent on the mixed-use development (including $7 million of cost towards future development phases, including purchased land cost, not reflected in the currently forecasted equity contribution towards the mixed-use development), of which approximately $40 million was provided by JV partners鈥� equity. The remaining $307 million was provided by the Braves, of which approximately $188 million was contributed in equity and approximately $119 million in debt.

Total debt attributed to the Braves Group increased by $82 million primarily as a result of additional borrowings for funding the ballpark and mixed-use development.

Total cash and liquid investments attributed to the Formula One Group increased $458 million during the quarter, primarily as a result of the acquisition of F1 and consolidation of F1鈥檚 cash on the balance sheet, partially offset by the $1.6 billion net cash paid to acquire the controlling interest in F1 on January 23, 2017. This investment was funded by cash on hand, the issuance of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock to third parties and borrowings under new debt instruments, as described below. Additionally, approximately $300 million of cash was used to prepay a portion of F1鈥檚 second lien term loan, as described below.

Total debt attributed to Formula One Group increased approximately $5 billion primarily as a result of the consolidation of F1鈥檚 debt on the balance sheet and additional borrowings to fund the cash consideration paid to the selling shareholders of F1, as described below.

On January 20, 2017, in connection with the acquisition of Liberty鈥檚 controlling interest in F1, Liberty drew $350 million under its previously arranged margin loan with shares of Live Nation and Viacom common stock pledged as collateral. On January 23, 2017, Liberty issued $450 million cash convertible notes at an annual interest rate of 1% that mature on January 30, 2023. Proceeds from both debt instruments were used to partially fund the cash consideration paid to the selling shareholders of F1.

On March 2, 2017, Liberty closed the refinancing of F1鈥檚 $3.1 billion first lien term loan. The final terms of the refinancing provide for, among other things (i) a reduction in the margin for the USD term loan from 3.75% to 3.25%, with the potential for a further reduction to 3.00% not earlier than six months after closing in the event of certain credit rating requirements being met, and (ii) an extension of the maturity for the USD term loan (previously听July 2021). Such extension is to the earlier of听February 2024听and six months prior to the maturity of F1's second lien facilities (currently听July 2022), unless the second lien facilities are repaid in full (in which case the maturity will be听February 2024). Further, given the demand for the USD term loan and the higher interest rate under the syndicated second lien facilities, F1 also prepaid $300 million听of the second lien term loan on March 6, 2017 using excess cash on the balance sheet.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

SCHEDULE 1

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. jvid视频 defines adjusted OIBDA as revenue less operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding all stock based compensation, and excludes from that definition depreciation and amortization, restructuring and impairment charges and separately reported legal settlements that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP.

jvid视频 believes adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, including each business' ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. 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, jvid视频 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 jvid视频's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets.

The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted OIBDA for jvid视频 to operating income calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017, respectively.

SCHEDULE 2

This press release also includes a presentation of adjusted EBITDA, 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 follows: EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. SiriusXM adjusts EBITDA to exclude the impact of other income as well as certain other charges discussed below. Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary Non-GAAP financial measures SiriusXM uses to (i) evaluate the performance of its on-going core operating results period over period, (ii) base internal budgets and (iii) compensate management. Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP financial measure that excludes (if applicable): (i) certain adjustments as a result of the purchase price accounting for the merger of Sirius and XM, (ii) share-based payment expense and (iii) other significant operating expense (income) that do not relate to the on-going performance of the business. SiriusXM believes adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the underlying trend of its operating performance, which provides useful information about the 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 its 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. Because of large capital investments in SiriusXM鈥檚 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 the business. SiriusXM also believes the exclusion of the legal settlements and reserves related to the historical use of sound recordings and loss on disposal of assets, to the extent they occur during the period, is useful as they are significant expenses not incurred as part of the normal operations for the period.

Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to SiriusXM鈥檚 statements of comprehensive income of certain expenses, including share-based payment expense and certain purchase price accounting for the merger of Sirius and XM. 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鈥檚 operating results after giving effect for these costs, should refer to net income as disclosed in its unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Since adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP financial performance measure, SiriusXM鈥檚 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 adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows:
