SEGMENT DATA:

We measure segment performance based on operating income (loss). For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, we had two reportable segments, local media and tennis. Our local media segment includes our television stations, original networks and content and provides these through free over-the-air programming to television viewing audiences for stations in markets located throughout the continental United States, as well as distributes the content of these stations to MVPDs for distribution to their customers in exchange for contractual fees. See Revenue Recognition under Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further detail. Our tennis segment provides viewers coverage of many of tennis’ top tournaments and original professional sport and tennis lifestyle shows. Other and corporate are not reportable segments but are included for reconciliation purposes. Other primarily consists of non-broadcast digital and internet solutions, technical services, and non-media investments. Corporate costs primarily include our costs to operate as a public company and to operate our corporate headquarters location. All our businesses are located within the United States. The local media segment assets are owned and operated by SBG, the assets of the tennis segment are owned and operated by Ventures, and the assets in other and corporate are owned and operated by Ventures.
