Exhibit 99.2

 

Liberty Media Corporation

Condensed Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

 

Introduction

 

On December 11, 2023, Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Liberty Media” or the “Company”), entered into definitive agreements, which were amended on June 16, 2024, whereby, subject to the terms thereof, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Media (“New Sirius”), would split-off from Liberty Media (the “Split-Off”), and Radio Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sirius, would combine with Sirius XM Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, to create a new public company, which would be renamed “SiriusXM Holdings Inc.”

 

On September 9, 2024 at 4:05 p.m., New York City time, Liberty Media completed the Split-Off. The Split-Off was accomplished by Liberty Media redeeming each outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share, in exchange for 0.8375 of a share of New Sirius common stock, par value $0.001 per share, with cash being paid to entitled record holders of Liberty SiriusXM common stock in lieu of any fractional shares of common stock of New Sirius.

 

The following unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared giving effect to the Split-Off as if it occurred as of June 30, 2024 for the condensed pro forma consolidated balance sheet and January 1, 2023 for the condensed pro forma consolidated statements of operations. The unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial statements do not purport to represent what the Company’s financial position actually would have been had the Split-Off occurred on the dates indicated or to project the Company’s operating results for any future period.

 

Based on a quantitative analysis, the Split-Off of the Company’s interest in New Sirius is expected to represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations due to the relative materiality of New Sirius. Accordingly, the Company intends to present its divestiture of New Sirius as a discontinued operation.

 

The unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the publicly available information of Liberty Media, including the Form 10-K, as filed on February 28, 2024 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Form 10-Q, as filed on August 9, 2024 with the SEC, as well as the publicly available information of New Sirius, including the Form 10-Q as filed on August 16, 2024 with the SEC.
