Strong Full-Year Financial Growth at F1
Formula 1 full-year revenue grew 14% and adjusted OIBDA grew 20% year-over-year, driven by growth across sponsorship, media rights (including F1 TV), race promotion, hospitality, licensing and new activations (e.g., Grand Prix Plaza).
Deleveraging Progress
F1 OpCo net leverage improved to 2.8x (down from 3.3x pro forma as of 6/30). MotoGP net leverage improved to 4.7x (down from 5.6x at 9/30). Liberty Media overall net leverage was 3.6x at year-end, and management expects continued deleveraging at MotoGP.
Material Cash and Liquidity Position
Liberty Media had $1.1 billion of cash and liquid investments at year-end (including $539 million at F1 and $197 million at MotoGP). Revolvers at F1 ($500 million) and MotoGP (EUR 100 million) were undrawn.
MotoGP Acquisition and Early Commercial Investment
MotoGP acquisition closed July 3, 2025; presented on a pro forma basis. Management is investing in commercial hires and shared knowledge with F1 to unlock long-term upside; MotoGP full-year revenue grew driven by two additional races (22 vs 20) and contractual uplifts.

Renewals/extensions announced in Pan-Asia (beIN), Latin America (ESPN), Sky Italia for MotoGP and promoter renewals for Barcelona, Thailand and others. New Concorde Agreement finalized through 2030 providing durable financial economics.
