Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. (“ABH”) (Nasdaq: BATRA, BATRK) today reported results for its fourth quarter and year end 2025 results.

• Total revenue grew to $732 million in 2025, up 11% from the prior year.
  • Baseball revenue increased 7% from the prior year to $635 million.
  • Mixed-Use Development revenue grew 45% from the prior year to $97 million.
• Total Adjusted OIBDA ⁽¹⁾ grew to $108 million in 2025, up 172% from the prior year.
  • Baseball Adjusted OIBDA grew to $51 million in 2025, an increase of over $44 million from the prior year.
  • Mixed-Use Development Adjusted OIBDA grew 51% from the prior year to $69 million.
• Operating income (loss) improved by $26 million to $(14) million, down from $(40) million in the prior year.

Discussion of Results

Baseball revenue is derived from two primary sources on an annual basis: (i) baseball event revenue (ticket sales, concessions, advertising sponsorships, suites and premium seat fees) and (ii) broadcasting revenue (national and local broadcast rights). Mixed-Use Development revenue is derived primarily from a real estate portfolio including the mixed-use facility The Battery Atlanta and primarily includes rental income.

The following table disaggregates revenue by segment and by source:

There were 81 and zero home games played in the full year and fourth quarter, respectively, for both 2025 and the comparable prior year period.

Baseball revenue increased 7% for the full year compared to the prior year primarily driven by growth in broadcasting revenue due to additional streaming rights granted to our regional broadcast partner, as well as contractual rate increases. Baseball event revenue increased primarily due to contractual rate increases on season tickets and existing sponsorship contracts, as well as new premium seating and sponsorship agreements, partially offset by reduced attendance at regular season home games. Other revenue increased primarily due to an increase in events held at Truist Park, including concerts and other special events such as hosting two games for the Savannah Bananas. Baseball revenue increased 2% in the fourth quarter primarily driven by contractual rate increases within broadcasting revenue.

Mixed-Use Development revenue increased 45% for the full year and 48% for the fourth quarter primarily due to increases in rental income from various lease commencements and the in-place leases associated with an April 2025 acquisition of certain real estate assets adjacent to The Battery Atlanta (the “Acquisition”) as well as higher sponsorship revenue, partially offset by various lease terminations.

Operating loss and Adjusted OIBDA ⁽¹⁾ improved for the full year compared to the prior year, as revenue growth and a reduction in Baseball operating costs more than offset increases in Mixed-Use Development costs and selling, general and administrative expenses. Baseball operating costs decreased primarily due to decreases in major league player salaries and variable concession and retail expenses. This decrease was partially offset by increases in MLB’s revenue sharing plan, expenses for events held at Truist Park, minor league related expenses, and broadcasting related expenses. Mixed-Use Development costs increased primarily due to operating costs associated with the assets within the Acquisition. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased due to increased property taxes, insurance and other professional fees.

Operating loss increased in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year due to the contract asset impairment associated with the termination of a long-term local broadcasting agreement. Adjusted OIBDA increased in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year as revenue growth and a reduction in Baseball operating costs more than offset increases in Mixed-Use Development costs and selling, general, and administrative expenses.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES

SCHEDULE 1: Reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA to Operating Income (Loss)

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes a presentation of Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for ABH together with reconciliations to operating income, as determined under GAAP. ABH defines Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, separately reported litigation settlements, restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges. However, ABH’s definition of Adjusted OIBDA may differ from similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.

ABH believes Adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its 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 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, ABH 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 ABH management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA for ABH to operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

SCHEDULE 2: Cash and Debt

The following presentation is provided to separately identify cash and debt information. ABH cash increased $18 million during the fourth quarter as cash from operations increased primarily due to seasonal working capital changes and distributions from equity method affiliates, partially offset by capital expenditures and repayments on borrowings. ABH debt decreased $22 million in the fourth quarter primarily due to repayments on the TeamCo revolver partially offset by borrowings on the Mixed-Use Development’s credit facilities to support capital projects.
