Notes to Attributed Financial Information (Continued)

(1) | As discussed in note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, on April 15, 2016 Liberty completed a reclassification of Liberty Media Corporation’s (“Liberty” or the “Company”) common stock into three new tracking stock groups, one designated as the Liberty Braves common stock, one designated as the Liberty Media common stock and one designated as the Liberty SiriusXM common stock (the “Recapitalization”). In January 2017, the Liberty Media Group was renamed the Liberty Formula One Group (the “Formula One Group”). |
A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole. While the Liberty SiriusXM Group, Liberty Braves Group (“Braves Group”) and Formula One Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Therefore, the Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and Formula One Group do not represent separate legal entities, but rather represent those businesses, assets and liabilities that have been attributed to each respective group. Holders of tracking stock have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and therefore, do not own, by virtue of their ownership of a Liberty tracking stock, any equity or voting interest in a company, such as Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (“Sirius XM Holdings”), Formula 1 or Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (“Live Nation”), in which Liberty holds an interest and that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, such as the Liberty SiriusXM Group or the Formula One Group. Holders of tracking stock are also not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.
As part of the Recapitalization, the Formula One Group initially held a 20% intergroup interest in the Braves Group. As a result of a rights offering in May 2016 to holders of Liberty Braves common stock to acquire shares of Series C Liberty Braves common stock, the number of notional shares underlying the intergroup interest held by the Formula One Group was adjusted to 9,084,940, representing a 15.1% intergroup interest in the Braves Group as of December 31, 2019. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2019, the Formula One Group began purchasing shares of Liberty SiriusXM common stock. As of December 31, 2019, the number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest held by the Formula One Group was 493,278, representing a 0.2% intergroup interest in the Liberty SiriusXM Group.
On April 22, 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved the immediate reattribution of certain assets and liabilities between the Formula One Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group (collectively, the “reattribution”).
The assets reattributed from the Formula One Group to the Liberty SiriusXM Group, valued at $2.8 billion, consisted of:
● | Liberty’s entire Live Nation stake, consisting of approximately 69.6 million shares of Live Nation common stock; |
● | a newly-created Formula One Group intergroup interest, consisting of approximately 5.3 million notional shares of Liberty Formula One common stock, to cover exposure under Liberty’s 1.375% cash convertible senior notes due 2023 (the “Convertible Notes”); |
● | the bond hedge and warrants associated with the Convertible Notes; |
● | the entire Liberty SiriusXM Group intergroup interest, consisting of approximately 1.9 million notional shares of Liberty SiriusXM common stock, thereby eliminating the Liberty SiriusXM Group intergroup interest; and |
● | a portion, consisting of approximately 2.3 million notional shares of Liberty Braves common stock, of the Formula One Group’s intergroup interest in the Braves Group, to cover exposure under the Convertible Notes. |
The reattributed liabilities, valued at $1.3 billion, consisted of:
● | the Convertible Notes; |
● | Liberty’s 2.25% exchangeable senior debentures due 2048; and |
● | Liberty’s margin loan secured by shares of Live Nation (“Live Nation Margin Loan”). |
13
Notes to Attributed Financial Information (Continued)
(unaudited)
Similarly, $1.5 billion of net asset value has been reattributed from the Liberty SiriusXM Group to the Formula One Group, comprised of:
● | a call spread between the Formula One Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group with respect to 34.8 million of the Live Nation shares that were reattributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group; and |
● | a net cash payment of $1.4 billion from the Liberty SiriusXM Group to the Formula One Group, which was funded by a combination of (x) cash on hand, (y) an additional $400 million drawn from the Company’s existing margin loan secured by shares of common stock of Sirius XM Holdings, resulting in an aggregate outstanding balance of $750 million, and (z) the creation of an intergroup loan obligation from the Liberty SiriusXM Group to the Formula One Group in the principal amount of $750 million, plus interest thereon, which was repaid with the proceeds from the LSXMK rights offering described below (the “Intergroup Loan”). |
The reattribution is reflected in the Company’s financial statements on a prospective basis.
As of December 31, 2020, the Liberty SiriusXM Group is primarily comprised of Liberty’s interests in Sirius XM Holdings and Live Nation, corporate cash, Liberty’s 1.375% Cash Convertible Notes due 2023 and related financial instruments, Liberty’s 2.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2048, Liberty’s 2.25% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2048, Liberty’s 2.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049, Liberty’s 0.5% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2050 and margin loan obligations incurred by wholly-owned special purpose subsidiaries of Liberty. On February 1, 2019, Sirius XM Holdings acquired Pandora Media, Inc., which continues to operate as Pandora Media, LLC (“Pandora”). See note 5 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information related to Sirius XM Holdings’ acquisition of Pandora. Additionally, as discussed below, the Liberty SiriusXM Group retains intergroup interests in the Braves Group and the Formula One Group. As of December 31, 2020, the Liberty SiriusXM Group has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $996 million, which includes $71 million of subsidiary cash.
The Braves Group is primarily comprised of our consolidated subsidiary, Braves Holdings, LLC (“Braves Holdings”), which indirectly owns the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball Club (“ANLBC”) and certain assets and liabilities associated with ANLBC’s stadium and mixed use development project (the “Development Project”) and corporate cash as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Braves Group has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $151 million, which includes $73 million of subsidiary cash. Additionally, as discussed below, the Liberty SiriusXM Group and the Formula One Group retain intergroup interests in the Braves Group.
The Formula One Group is primarily comprised of all of the businesses, assets and liabilities of Liberty other than those specifically attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group or the Braves Group, including, as of December 31, 2020, Liberty’s interest in Formula 1, cash, an intergroup interest in the Braves Group, Liberty’s 1% Cash Convertible Notes due 2023 and Liberty’s 2.25% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2046. As of December 31, 2020, the Formula One Group has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,684 million, which includes $265 million of subsidiary cash.
The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Braves Group held by the Formula One Group is 6,792,903, representing an 11.1% intergroup interest at December 31, 2020. The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Braves Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group is 2,292,037, representing a 3.7% intergroup interest at December 31, 2020. The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group is 5,271,475, representing a 2.2% intergroup interest at December 31, 2020. The intergroup interests represent quasi-equity interests which are not represented by outstanding shares of common stock; rather, the Formula One Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group have attributed interests in the Braves Group, which are generally stated in terms of a number of shares of Liberty Braves common stock, and the Liberty SiriusXM Group also has an attributed interest in the Formula One Group, which is generally stated in terms of a number of shares of Liberty Formula One common stock. Each reporting period, the notional shares representing the intergroup interests are marked to fair value. The changes in fair value are recorded in the Unrealized gain (loss) on intergroup interests line item in the unaudited attributed consolidated statements of operations.
The Braves Group intergroup interests attributable to the Formula One Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group are reflected in the Investment in intergroup interests line item, and the Braves Group liabilities for the
14
Notes to Attributed Financial Information (Continued)
(unaudited)
intergroup interests are reflected in the Redeemable intergroup interests line item in the unaudited attributed consolidated balance sheets. Similarly, the Formula One Group intergroup interest attributable to the Liberty SiriusXM Group is reflected in the Investment in intergroup interests line item, and the Formula One Group liability for the intergroup interest is reflected in the Redeemable intergroup interests line item in the unaudited attributed consolidated balance sheets. Both accounts are presented as noncurrent, as there are currently no plans for the settlement of the intergroup interests. Appropriate eliminating entries are recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As the notional shares underlying the intergroup interests are not represented by outstanding shares of common stock, such shares have not been officially designated Series A, B or C Liberty Braves common stock and Series A, B or C Liberty Formula One common stock, respectively. However, Liberty has 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 in order to not dilute voting percentages 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 since Series A Liberty Braves common stock underlie the 1.375% convertible bonds. Therefore, the market prices of Series C Liberty Braves and Series A Liberty Braves common stock are used for the quarterly mark-to-market adjustment for the intergroup interests held by Formula One Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group, respectively, through the unaudited attributed consolidated statements of operations. Liberty has assumed that the notional shares (if and when issued) related to the Liberty SiriusXM Group interest in the Formula One Group would be comprised of Series A Liberty Formula One common stock since Series A Formula One common stock underlie the 1.375% convertible bonds. Therefore, the market price of Series A Liberty Formula One common stock is used for the quarterly mark-to-market adjustment through the unaudited attributed consolidated statements of operations. The intergroup interests will remain outstanding until the redemption of the outstanding interests, at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, through transfer of securities, cash and/or other assets from the Braves Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group, respectively, to the Formula One Group.
The intergroup interests will remain outstanding until the redemption of the outstanding interests, at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, through a transfer of securities, cash and/or other assets from the Braves Group or Formula One Group to the respective tracking stock group.
On April 22, 2020, the Company’s board of directors authorized management of the Company to cause subscription rights (the “Series C Liberty SiriusXM Rights”) to purchase shares of Series C Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“LSXMK”), in a rights offering (the “LSXMK rights offering”) to be distributed to holders of Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share, Series B Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and LSXMK. In the LSXMK rights offering, Liberty distributed 0.0939 of a Series C Liberty SiriusXM Right for each share of Series A, Series B or Series C Liberty SiriusXM common stock held as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 13, 2020. Fractional Series C Liberty SiriusXM Rights were rounded up to the nearest whole right. Each whole Series C Liberty SiriusXM Right entitled the holder to purchase, pursuant to the basic subscription privilege, one share of LSXMK at a subscription price of $25.47, which was equal to an approximate 20% discount to the volume weighted average trading price of LSXMK for the 3-day trading period ending on and including May 8, 2020. Each Series C Liberty SiriusXM Right also entitled the holder to subscribe for additional shares of LSXMK that were unsubscribed for in the LSXMK rights offering pursuant to an oversubscription privilege. The LSXMK rights offering commenced on May 18, 2020, which was also the ex-dividend date for the distribution of the Series C Liberty SiriusXM Rights. The LSXMK rights offering expired at 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on June 5, 2020 and was fully subscribed with 29,594,089 shares of LSXMK issued to those rightsholders exercising basic and, if applicable, oversubscription privileges. The proceeds from the LSXMK rights offering, which aggregated approximately $754 million, were used to repay the outstanding balance on the Intergroup Loan and accrued interest.
For information relating to investments in affiliates accounted for using the equity method and debt, see notes 7 and 9, respectively, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
(2) | Cash compensation expense for our corporate employees is allocated among the Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and the Formula One Group based on the estimated percentage of time spent providing services for each group. On an annual basis estimated time spent will be determined through an interview process and a review of personnel duties unless transactions significantly change the composition of companies and |

investments in either respective group which would require a timelier reevaluation of estimated time spent. Other general and administrative expenses are charged directly to the groups whenever possible and are otherwise allocated based on estimated usage or some other reasonably determined methodology. Stock compensation related to each tracking stock is calculated based on actual awards outstanding. |
While we believe that this allocation method is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology or percentages used to allocate general and administrative expenses in the future.
(3) | We have accounted for income taxes for the Liberty SiriusXM Group, the Braves Group and the Formula One Group in the accompanying attributed financial information in a manner similar to a stand-alone company basis. To the extent this methodology differs from our tax sharing policy, differences have been reflected in the attributed net assets of the respective groups. |

(4) | The intergroup balances as December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 also include the impact of the timing of certain tax benefits. Per the tracking stock tax sharing policies, consolidated income taxes arising from the Liberty SiriusXM Group in periods prior to the Recapitalization were not subject to tax sharing and were allocated to the Formula One Group. As such, the balance of the Intergroup tax payable between the Liberty SiriusXM Group and the Formula One Group was zero at the effective date of the Recapitalization and is accounted for going forward beginning on such date. |
