Fiscal 2025 was highlighted by another year of strong demand for the Company's array of live entertainment offerings. The Company hosted nearly 6 million guests at more than 975 events, including concerts, special events, family shows, and marquee sports, as well as the New York Knicks' ("Knicks") and New York Rangers' ("Rangers") regular seasons and the Knicks' playoff run. It also reflected approximately 1.1 million tickets sold across 200 shows of the Christmas Spectacular production, which delivered another year of record-setting revenues. In addition, the Company repurchased approximately $40 million of its Class A common stock during fiscal 2025.

For fiscal 2025, the Company reported revenues of $942.7 million, a decrease of $16.5 million, or 2%, as compared to the prior year. In addition, the Company reported operating income of $122.1 million, an increase of $10.2 million, or 9%, and adjusted operating income of $222.5 million, an increase of $11.0 million, or 5%, both as compared to the prior year.⁽¹⁾

For the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter, the Company reported revenues of $154.1 million, a decrease of $31.9 million, or 17%, as compared to the prior year quarter. In addition, the Company reported an operating loss of $25.8 million, an increase of $16.9 million as compared to the prior year quarter, and an adjusted operating loss of $1.3 million as compared to adjusted operating income of $13.1 million in the prior year quarter.⁽¹⁾

Executive Chairman and CEO James L. Dolan said, 鈥淒uring fiscal 2025, we saw strong demand for our portfolio of entertainment assets. We see this momentum continuing in fiscal 2026, and believe we are well positioned to drive solid revenue and adjusted operating income growth in the year ahead.鈥�

Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Entertainment Offerings, Arena License Fees and Other Leasing

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter revenues from entertainment offerings of $118.7 million decreased $24.1 million, or 17%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower event-related revenues and a decrease in revenues subject to the sharing of economics with Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. ("MSG Sports") pursuant to the Arena License Agreements.

• Event-related revenues decreased $21.6 million, primarily due to lower revenues from concerts, partially offset by higher revenues from other live entertainment and sporting events held at the Company's venues. The decrease in revenues from concerts primarily reflects a decrease in the number of concerts at the Madison Square Garden Arena ("The Garden") and lower per-concert revenues, primarily due to a shift in the mix of events at The Garden from promoted events to rentals, partially offset by an increase in the number of concerts at the Company's theaters, all as compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues from other live entertainment and sporting events primarily reflects higher per-event revenues.

• Revenues subject to the sharing of economics with MSG Sports pursuant to the Arena License Agreements decreased $2.4 million, primarily due to lower suite license fee revenues (excluding those retained by MSG Entertainment) as compared to the prior year quarter, which mainly reflects the impact of fewer Knicks and Rangers games played at The Garden.

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter arena license fees and other leasing revenues of $9.0 million increased $0.5 million, or 6%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to an increase in other leasing revenues, partially offset by lower arena license fees due to a combined one fewer Knicks and Rangers regular season game played at The Garden as compared to the prior year quarter.

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter direct operating expenses associated with entertainment offerings, arena license fees and other leasing of $85.5 million decreased $14.2 million, or 14%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower event-related expenses and, to a lesser extent, lower expenses related to the sharing of economics with MSG Sports pursuant to the Arena License Agreements, partially offset by an increase in expenses related to the presentation of the Christmas Spectacular production and other cost increases.

• Event-related expenses decreased $15.7 million, mainly due to lower per-concert expenses, primarily due to a shift in the mix of events at The Garden from promoted events to rentals, and a decrease in the number of concerts at The Garden, partially offset by an increase in the number of concerts at the Company's theaters, all as compared to the prior year. This was partially offset by higher expenses for other live entertainment and sporting events as compared to the prior year quarter.

• Expenses associated with the sharing of economics with MSG Sports pursuant to the Arena License Agreements decreased $1.8 million, reflecting a proportional decrease in contractual revenue sharing as a result of the decrease in suite license fee revenues.

Food, Beverage and Merchandise

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter food, beverage and merchandise revenues of $26.4 million decreased $8.3 million, or 24%, as compared to the prior year quarter. This decrease was primarily due to (i) lower food and beverage sales at Knicks and Rangers games, primarily due to fewer games played at The Garden as compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by higher per-event revenues, and (ii) lower food and beverage sales at concerts, primarily due to a decrease in the number of concerts at The Garden, partially offset by an increase in the number of concerts at the Company's theaters, both as compared to the prior year quarter.

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter food, beverage and merchandise direct operating expenses of $16.5 million decreased $6.2 million, or 27%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower food and beverage costs at concerts at the Company's venues and lower food and beverage costs at Knicks and Rangers games at The Garden.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter selling, general and administrative expenses of $59.9 million increased $4.1 million, or 7%, as compared with the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily due to higher employee compensation and related benefits, partially offset by lower rent expense and other net cost decreases.

Operating Loss and Adjusted Operating (Loss) Income

Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter operating loss of $25.8 million increased $16.9 million and adjusted operating income decreased $14.4 million to an adjusted operating loss of $1.3 million, both as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the decrease in revenues and, to a lesser extent, higher selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower direct operating expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define adjusted operating income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) excluding (i) depreciation, amortization and impairments of property and equipment, goodwill and other long-lived assets, including right of use assets and related lease costs, (ii) share-based compensation expense or benefit, (iii) restructuring charges or credits, (iv) merger, spin-off, and acquisition-related costs, including merger-related litigation expenses, (v) gains or losses on sales or dispositions of businesses and associated settlements, (vi) the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to business acquisitions, (vii) amortization for capitalized cloud computing arrangement costs and (viii) gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the executive deferred compensation plan. We exclude impairments of long-lived assets, including right-of-use assets and related lease costs, as these expenses do not represent core business operating results of the Company. We believe that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense or benefit allows investors to better track the performance of our business without regard to the settlement of an obligation that is not expected to be made in cash. We eliminate merger, spin-off, and acquisition-related transaction costs, when applicable, because the Company does not consider such costs to be indicative of the ongoing operating performance of the Company as they result from an event that is of a non-recurring nature, thereby enhancing comparability. In addition, management believes that the exclusion of gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the executive deferred compensation plan, provides investors with a clearer picture of the Company鈥檚 operating performance given that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the executive deferred compensation plan are recognized in Operating (income) loss whereas gains and losses related to the remeasurement of the assets under the executive deferred compensation plan, which are equal to and therefore fully offset the gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities, are recognized in Other income (expense), net, which is not reflected in Operating income (loss).

We believe adjusted operating income (loss) is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company on a consolidated basis. Adjusted operating income (loss) and similar measures with similar titles are common performance measures used by investors and analysts to analyze our performance. Internally, we use revenues and adjusted operating income (loss) as the most important indicators of our business performance, and evaluate management鈥檚 effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Adjusted operating income (loss) should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, and other measures of performance and/or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Since adjusted operating income (loss) is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures with similar titles used by other companies. For a reconciliation of operating income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss), please see page 5 of this release.
