Unaudited Attributed Financial Information for Tracking Stock Groups
The following tables present our assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and revenue and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

The financial information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Notwithstanding the following attribution of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and cash flows to the Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and the Formula One Group, our tracking stock capital structure does not affect the ownership or the respective legal title to our assets or responsibility for our liabilities. We and our subsidiaries are each responsible for our respective liabilities.

The issuance of Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Braves and Liberty Formula One common stock does not affect the rights of our creditors.

Notes to Attributed Financial Information (Continued)
(unaudited)
(1) | 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, Braves Group and Formula One Group had separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group was a separate legal entity and therefore could not own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Therefore, the Liberty SiriusXM Group, Braves Group and Formula One Group did not represent separate legal entities, but rather represented those businesses, assets and liabilities that had 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 public company, such as Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (“Sirius XM Holdings”), in which Liberty holds an interest and that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, the Liberty SiriusXM 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 of June 30, 2023, the Liberty SiriusXM Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $311 million, which included $51 million of subsidiary cash.
As of June 30, 2023, the Braves Group was primarily comprised of our consolidated subsidiary, 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 and cash. As of June 30, 2023, the Braves Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $131 million, which included $71 million of subsidiary cash.
As of June 30, 2023, the Formula One Group was 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 Liberty’s interest in Formula 1, cash, an intergroup interest in the Braves Group and Liberty’s 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027. As of June 30, 2023, the Formula One Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,489 million, which included $1,055 million of cash held by Formula 1. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, approximately $300 million of subsidiary cash was distributed to Liberty.
During March 2023, the Formula One Group paid approximately $202 million to the Liberty SiriusXM Group to settle a portion of the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group, as a result of the repurchase of a portion of Liberty’s 1.375% Cash Convertible Notes due 2023, as described in note 7 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Braves Group held by the Formula One Group was 6,792,903, representing an 11.0% intergroup interest at June 30, 2023. The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Braves Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group was 1,811,066, representing a 2.9% intergroup interest at June 30, 2023. The number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by the Liberty SiriusXM Group was 1,051,238, representing a 0.4% intergroup interest at June 30, 2023. The intergroup interests represented quasi-equity interests which were not represented by outstanding shares of common stock; rather, the Formula One Group and Liberty SiriusXM Group had attributed interests in the Braves Group, which were generally stated in terms of a number of shares of Liberty Braves common stock, and the Liberty SiriusXM Group also had an attributed interest in the Formula One Group, which was 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 were 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 condensed 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 intergroup interests are reflected in the Redeemable intergroup interests line item in the unaudited attributed condensed 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 condensed consolidated balance sheets. Both accounts are presented as noncurrent, as cash settlement of the intergroup interests was not required. Appropriate eliminating entries are recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
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 and Series A, B or C Liberty Formula One common stock, respectively. However, Liberty 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 were historically 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 condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the second quarter of 2023, Liberty determined that, in connection with the split-off of its wholly owned subsidiary, Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. (“Atlanta Braves Holdings”), 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, as of June 30, 2023, 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. Liberty 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 condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(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 is 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) | The intergroup balance at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is primarily a result of timing of tax benefits. |
