The following discussion and analysis provides information concerning our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

### Explanatory Note

During November 2022, the board of directors of Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) authorized Liberty management to pursue a plan to redeem each outstanding share of its Liberty Braves common stock in exchange for one share of the corresponding series of common stock of a newly formed entity, Atlanta Braves Holdings (the “Split-Off”). The Split-Off was completed on July 18, 2023 and was intended to be tax-free to holders of Liberty Braves common stock. Atlanta Braves Holdings is comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities previously attributed to the Liberty Braves Group (“Braves Group”), which, as of March 31, 2024, included Atlanta Braves Holdings’ wholly-owned subsidiary Braves Holdings and corporate cash. Although Atlanta Braves Holdings was reported as a combined company until the date of the Split-Off, all periods reported herein are referred to as consolidated.

The intergroup interests in the Braves Group held by the Liberty Formula One Group (the “Formula One Group”) and the Liberty SiriusXM Group immediately prior to the Split-Off were settled and extinguished in connection with the Split-Off through the attribution, to the respective tracking stock group, of Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock on a one-for-one basis equal to the number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest.

### Overview

The Company manages its business based on the following reportable segments: baseball and mixed-use development.

The baseball segment includes operations relating to the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball Club (“ANLBC,” the “Atlanta Braves,” the “Braves,” the “club,” or the “team”) and the Braves’ ballpark (“Truist Park” or the “Stadium”) and includes revenue generated from ticket sales, concessions, local broadcasting rights, advertising sponsorships, suites and premium seat fees, retail and licensing revenue, shared MLB revenue streams, including national broadcasting rights and licensing, and other sources. Ticket sales, concessions, broadcasting rights and advertising sponsorship sales are the baseball segment’s primary revenue drivers.

The mixed-use development segment includes retail, office, hotel and entertainment operations within The Battery Atlanta (the “Mixed-Use Development”). The Mixed-Use Development derives revenue primarily from office and retail rental income (including overage rent and tenant reimbursements) and, to a lesser extent, parking and advertising sponsorships throughout the year.

### Results of Operations –March 31, 2024 and 2023

***General.*** Provided in the tables below is information regarding the historical Condensed Consolidated Operating Results and Other Income and Expense of Atlanta Braves Holdings, as well as information regarding the contribution to those items from our reportable segments. The “corporate and other” category consists of those assets that do not qualify as a separate reportable segment.

***Baseball revenue.*** Baseball revenue is derived from two primary sources: baseball event revenue (ticket sales, concessions, advertising sponsorships, suites and premium seat fees) and broadcasting revenue. The following table disaggregates baseball revenue by source:

*amounts in thousands*

| ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended March 31, 2024 | ​ | ​ 2023 | ​ ​ ​ ​ |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | ---: | --- |
| Baseball event | ​ | $1,168 | **​** | 1,118 | ​ |
| Broadcasting | ​ | 2,101 | ​ | 891 | ​ |
| Retail and licensing | ​ | 5,653 | ​ | 4,375 | ​ |
| Other | ​ | 13,048 | ​ | 11,177 | ​ |
| Total Baseball | ​ | $21,970 | ​ | 17,561 | ​ |

There were no regular season home games played in either the first quarter of 2024 or 2023. Baseball event revenue was relatively flat during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Broadcasting revenue increased $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in the number of regular season games based on the timing of the regular season start this year, as well as contractual rate increases. Retail and licensing revenue increased $1.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to higher league-wide revenue. Other revenue, a component of baseball revenue, increased $1.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to spring training related revenue (ticket sales, concession revenue and other gameday related revenue) driven by increased ticket demand and attendance at spring training home games.

***Mixed-Use Development revenue.*** Mixed-Use Development revenue is derived from the mixed-use facilities and primarily includes rental income and to a lesser extent, parking revenue and sponsorships. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Mixed-Use Development revenue increased $1.7 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in rental income and a $0.7 million increase in parking revenue. Increases in rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were primarily driven by $0.6 million of increases in tenant recoveries and $0.4 million of increases primarily related to new lease agreements.

***Baseball operating costs.*** Baseball operating costs primarily include costs associated with baseball and stadium operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, baseball operating expenses increased $8.4 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in major league player salaries and a $0.9 million increase in minor league team and player expenses. Additional increases in baseball operating costs during the three months ended March 31, 2024, were due to $1.2 million of increased spring training related expenses (facility and game day operations, travel, and other variable expenses), $1.0 million of increases under MLB’s revenue sharing plan and other shared expenses and other increases in various baseball operation and facility expenses.

***Mixed-Use Development costs.*** Mixed-Use Development costs primarily include costs associated with maintaining and operating the mixed-use facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Mixed-Use Development costs increased $0.3 million, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to general repair expenses and other various operating increases.

***Selling, general and administrative, excluding stock-based compensation.*** Selling, general and administrative expense includes costs of marketing, advertising, finance and related personnel costs. Selling, general and administrative expense was relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Reduced transaction costs related to the Split-Off were offset by increased personnel, insurance and information technology costs.

***Stock-based compensation.*** Stock-based compensation increased $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to increases in the grant value of new awards.

***Depreciation and amortization.*** Depreciation and amortization was relatively flat during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

***Operating income (loss).*** Operating loss increased $3.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to the above explanations.

***Adjusted OIBDA.*** To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we also disclose Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges. Our chief operating decision maker and management team use this measure of performance in conjunction with other measures to evaluate our businesses and make decisions about allocating resources among our businesses. We believe this is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of our 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 us to view operating results, perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net earnings (loss), cash flow provided by (used in)

operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The following table provides a reconciliation of Operating income (loss) to Adjusted OIBDA:

*amounts in thousands*

| ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended March 31, 2024 | ​ ​ 2023 | ​ ​ ​ ​ |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | --- |
| Operating income (loss) | ​ | $(52,355) | (49,257) | ​ |
| Stock-based compensation | ​ | ​ 3,719 | 3,191 | ​ |
| Depreciation and amortization | ​ | ​ 14,882 | 14,679 | ​ |
| Adjusted OIBDA | ​ | $(33,754) | (31,387) | ​ |

Adjusted OIBDA is summarized as follows:

*amounts in thousands*

| ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended March 31, 2024 | ​ ​ 2023 | ​ ​ ​ ​ |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | --- |
| Baseball | ​ | $(41,716) | (35,835) | ​ |
| Mixed-Use Development | ​ | ​ 9,933 | 9,153 | ​ |
| Corporate and Other | ​ | ​ (1,971) | (4,705) | ​ |
| Total | ​ | $(33,754) | (31,387) | ​ |

Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA loss increased $2.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Baseball Adjusted OIBDA loss increased $5.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to the fluctuations in baseball revenue and operating costs, as described above.

Mixed-Use Development Adjusted OIBDA increased $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to the fluctuations in Mixed-Use Development revenue and costs, as described above.

Corporate and Other Adjusted OIBDA loss decreased $2.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in costs related to the Split-Off.

***Interest Expense.*** Interest expense increased $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to increased interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt.

***Share of earnings (losses) of affiliates.*** The following table presents our share of earnings (losses) of affiliates:

*amounts in thousands*

| ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended March 31, 2024 | ​ ​ 2023 | ​ |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | --- |
| MLB Advanced Media, L.P. | ​ | $(787) | (1,243) | ​ |
| Baseball Endowment, L.P. | ​ | 1,713 | 197 | ​ |
| Other | ​ | 701 | 243 | ​ |
| Total | ​ | $1,627 | (803) | ​ |

***Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on intergroup interests, net.*** As the notional shares underlying the intergroup interests were not represented by outstanding shares of common stock, such shares had not been officially designated Series A, B or C Liberty Braves common stock. However, Liberty historically assumed that the notional shares (if and when issued) related to the Formula One Group interest in the Braves Group would be comprised of Series C

Liberty Braves common stock and the notional shares (if and when issued) related to the Liberty SiriusXM Group interest in the Braves Group would be comprised of Series A Liberty Braves common stock. Therefore, the market prices of Series C Liberty Braves and Series A Liberty Braves common stock were used for the mark-to-market adjustment for the intergroup interests held by Formula One Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group, respectively, through the condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the second quarter of 2023, Liberty determined that, in connection with the Split-Off, shares of Atlanta Braves Holdings Series C common stock would be used to settle and extinguish the intergroup interest in the Braves Group attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. Accordingly, effective as of June 30, 2023 and through the Split-Off date, the market price of Series C Liberty Braves common stock was used for the mark-to-market adjustment for the intergroup interest held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on intergroup interests, net were driven by changes in the market prices of Liberty Braves common stock. As disclosed above, the intergroup interests were settled and extinguished in connection with the Split-Off.

***Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments, net.*** Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments, net are comprised of changes in the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps driven by changes in interest rates.

***Other, net.*** Other, net income increased $0.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due primarily to increases in dividend and interest income.

***Income taxes.*** Earnings (losses) before income taxes and income tax (expense) benefit are as follows:

*amounts in thousands*

| ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ ​ | ​ ​ Three months ended ​ March 31, 2024 | ​ ​ 2023 | ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | --- |
| Earnings (loss) before income taxes | ​ | $(55,428) | (72,269) | ​ |
| Income tax (expense) benefit | ​ | 4,156 | 14,293 | ​ |

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a tax benefit less than the expected federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of certain non-deductible expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized a tax benefit less than the expected federal tax rate of 21% due primarily to intergroup interest losses that are not deductible for tax purposes, partially offset by a tax benefit for the effect of state income taxes.

***Net earnings (loss).*** The Company had net losses of $51.3 million and $58.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in net earnings (loss) was the result of the above-described fluctuations in our revenue, expenses and other gains and losses.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $181.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. Substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents are invested in U.S. Treasury securities, other government securities or government guaranteed funds, AAA rated money market funds and other highly rated financial and corporate debt instruments.

Braves Holdings is in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of March 31, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company’s primary uses of cash were capital expenditures and debt service, funded primarily by cash from operations and new borrowings on construction loans.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s primary uses of cash were capital expenditures and debt service, funded primarily by cash on hand and cash from operations.

The Company’s uses of cash are expected to be payments to certain players, coaches and executives pursuant to long-term employment agreements, capital expenditures, investments in real estate ventures and debt service payments. The Company expects to fund its projected uses of cash with cash on hand, cash provided by operations and through borrowings under construction loans and revolvers. We believe that the available sources of liquidity are sufficient to cover our projected future uses of cash.

The Braves have a long term local television broadcasting agreement with Sportsouth Network II, LLC. Diamond Sports Group, LLC, the parent company of Sportsouth Network II, LLC, is in financial distress and has filed for Chapter 11 protection. While the pending bankruptcy proceeding of Diamond Sports Group, LLC has not previously had a material unfavorable impact on the Company’s revenue and the Company has received scheduled payments to date, we cannot currently predict whether such bankruptcy proceeding is reasonably likely to have a material unfavorable impact on our revenue and liquidity in the future.

### Sources of Liquidity

The following are potential sources of liquidity: available cash balances, cash generated by Braves Holdings’ operating activities (to the extent such cash exceeds Braves Holdings’ working capital needs and is not otherwise restricted), net proceeds from asset sales, debt borrowings under the LWCF, the MLBFF and the TeamCo Revolver (each as defined below) and dividend and interest receipts.

#### League Wide Credit Facility

In December 2013, a subsidiary of Braves Holdings executed various agreements to enter into MLB’s League Wide Credit Facility (the “LWCF”). Pursuant to the terms of a revolving credit agreement, Major League Baseball Trust may borrow from certain lenders, with Bank of America, N.A. acting as the administrative agent. Major League Baseball Trust then uses the proceeds of such borrowings to provide loans to the club trusts of the participating Clubs, including the Braves Club Trust (the “Club Trust”). The maximum amount available to the Club Trust under the LWCF was $125.0 million as of March 31, 2024. The commitment termination date of the revolving credit facility under the LWCF, which is the repayment date for all amounts borrowed under such revolving credit facility, is July 10, 2026.

#### MLB Facility Fund Revolver

In December 2017, a subsidiary of Braves Holdings executed various agreements to enter into the MLB Facility Fund (the “MLBFF”). Pursuant to the terms of an indenture, a credit agreement and certain note purchase agreements, Major League Baseball Facility Fund, LLC may borrow from certain lenders. Major League Baseball Facility Fund, LLC then uses the proceeds of such borrowings to provide loans to each of the participating Clubs. Amounts advanced pursuant to the MLBFF are available to fund ballpark and other baseball-related real property improvements, renovations and/or new construction. In May 2021, Braves Facility Fund LLC established a revolving credit commitment with Major League Baseball Facility Fund, LLC (the “MLB facility fund — revolver”). The commitment termination date, which is the repayment date for all amounts borrowed under the MLB facility fund — revolver, is July 10, 2026. The maximum amount available to Braves Facility Fund LLC under the MLB facility fund — revolver was $40.8 million as of March 31, 2024.

#### TeamCo Revolver

A subsidiary of Braves Holdings is party to a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “TeamCo Revolver”), which provides revolving commitments of $150 million and matures in August 2029. The availability under the TeamCo Revolver as of March 31, 2024 was $150.0 million.

See note 5 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of all indebtedness obligations.

## Market risk

As filed, 1,666 characters.

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business due to our ongoing investing and financial activities and the conduct of operations. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in stock prices and interest rates. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities, which include fixed and floating rate debt instruments and borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations. The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt are expected to vary as a result of future requirements, market conditions and other factors. We manage our exposure to interest rates by maintaining what we believe is an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We believe this best protects us from interest rate risk. We have achieved this mix by (i) issuing fixed rate debt that we believe has a low stated interest rate and significant term to maturity, (ii) issuing variable rate debt with appropriate maturities and interest rates and (iii) entering into interest rate swap arrangements when we deem appropriate.

As of March 31, 2024, we had $97.8 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 7.1% and $485.6 million aggregate principal amount of fixed rate debt with a weighted average interest rate of 4.4%.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 1,184 characters.

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its chief executive officer and principal accounting and financial officer (the "Executives"), and under the oversight of its board of directors, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, the Executives concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.
