DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION	1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (the "Company" or "EGH") was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in January 2019. The Company was formed as a holding company for the purpose of completing an initial public offering ("IPO") and other related transactions in order to carry on the business of Endeavor Operating Company, LLC (d.b.a. Endeavor) and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Endeavor" or "EOC"). As the sole managing member of Endeavor Manager, LLC ("Endeavor Manager"), which in turn is the sole managing member of EOC, the Company operates and controls all the business and affairs of Endeavor, and through Endeavor and its subsidiaries, conducts the Company’s business. The Company is a global sports and entertainment company. In April 2024, following the Company's review to evaluate strategic alternatives, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which affiliates of Silver Lake agreed to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of the Company's stock that it does not already own (other than certain equity interests held by certain current directors and executive officers of the Company and any other Rollover Holders (the “Rollover Interests”)). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions and on the terms set forth therein, equityholders of EGH, EOC and Endeavor Manager are to receive $27.50 in cash per share or unit, as applicable. The Merger Agreement also requires the Company to, in each calendar quarter prior to the closing, declare and pay a dividend in respect of each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price equal to $0.06 per share. Completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Merger-Related Transactions") is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including required regulatory approvals. The Merger Agreement also includes certain covenants of the Company Entities, including with respect to sales of certain specified assets of the Company (other than with respect to TKO Group Holdings, Inc. ("TKO") and the agency representation business of WME), the declaration and payment of quarterly dividends, and non-solicitation of alternative acquisition proposals, as well as other customary representations, warranties and covenants by Company Entities, the Parent Entities and the Merger Subs. Completion of the Merger-Related Transactions is not subject to a financing condition, and the Merger-Related Transactions are to be financed through a combination of new and reinvested equity from affiliates of Silver Lake and additional capital by other third-party investors; the Rollover Interests; and new debt financing. The Merger-Related Transactions are expected to close by the end of the first quarter of 2025. Upon completion, the Company's common stock will no longer be listed on any public market. In September 2023, the Company completed the transactions involving the business combination of World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. ("WWE"), which is a media and entertainment company, and TKO Operating Company ("TKO OpCo"), which owns and operates the Ultimate Fighting Championship ("UFC") (the "TKO Transactions"). As part of the TKO Transactions, among other things, a new, publicly listed company, TKO, was formed. Upon closing of the TKO Transactions, Endeavor holds a controlling interest in TKO, which became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. Going Concern These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to refinance or repay its long-term debt, and the attainment of profitable operations. Historically, the Company has relied principally on liquidity generated from operating activities to fund the Company’s day-to-day operations and routine capital expenditures, invest in revenue-generating activities, and service its long-term debt. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had an aggregate of $5.3 billion outstanding indebtedness, of which $2.2 billion is a term loan scheduled to mature on May 18, 2025. We expect that the term loan then outstanding will be repaid as part of the Merger-Related Transactions or will otherwise be refinanced prior to its maturity. Absent the Company’s ability to secure additional liquidity, extend the maturity of or refinance such term loan, the Company’s operations may be adversely impacted in the event the lenders declare an event of default and exercise their rights and remedies under the first lien credit agreement. As a result of the upcoming maturity of the term loan on May 18, 2025, the Company has evaluated plans over the next twelve months beyond the date the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are issued to secure additional liquidity which include, but are not limited to, (i) repayment or refinancing of the term loan as part of the Merger-Related Transactions (ii) reducing discretionary capital and operating expenses (iii) obtaining additional facilities from banks and renewal of existing bank borrowings and (iv) proceeds from asset sales. While the Company has had a history of being able to secure additional liquidity or refinance its outstanding indebtedness, the feasibility of some of these plans is contingent upon factors outside of the control of the Company, and as such, these uncertainties raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
