Sphere
For the first quarter 2026, the Sphere segment reported revenues of $266.0 million, an increase of $108.4 million, or 69%, as compared to the prior year quarter.
Revenues related to The Sphere Experience increased $81.7 million as compared to the prior year quarter, which primarily reflected higher per-show revenue for The Wizard of Oz at Sphere. In the current year quarter, The Sphere Experience reflected 209 performances of The Wizard of Oz at Sphere as compared to 200 performances of Postcard from Earth and V-U2 An Immersive Concert Film in the prior year quarter.
Event-related revenues increased $24.4 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to (i) higher revenues from brand events, due to one additional brand event held in the current year quarter and higher per-event revenue, and (ii) higher revenues from concerts, primarily due to six additional concert residency shows held at Sphere in Las Vegas during the current year period.
Revenues from sponsorship, Exosphere advertising and suite license fees increased $1.6 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting an increase in sponsorship revenues and higher suite license fee revenues.
Other revenues increased $0.7 million as compared to the prior year quarter.
For the first quarter 2026, the Sphere segment had direct operating expenses of $99.2 million, an increase of $28.7 million, or 41%, as compared to the prior year quarter. Expenses associated with The Sphere Experience increased $18.1 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher per-show expenses for The Wizard of Oz at Sphere. Event-related expenses increased $10.8 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to (i) higher expenses from brand events, due to higher per-event expenses and an increase in the number of brand events held in the current year quarter, and (ii) higher expenses from concerts, due to an increase in the number of concert residency shows held at Sphere in Las Vegas, partially offset by lower per-concert expenses.
For the first quarter 2026, selling, general and administrative expenses of $106.6 million increased $10.2 million, or 11%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the impact of mark-to-market adjustments on certain share-based compensation awards as a result of the appreciation in the Company’s stock price during the current year quarter.
For the first quarter 2026, operating loss of $24.9 million improved by $68.9 million, or 73%, and adjusted operating income of $74.3 million increased $61.1 million, both as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the increase in revenues, partially offset by higher direct operating expenses and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
MSG Networks
For the first quarter 2026, the MSG Networks segment reported total revenues of $120.4 million, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 2%, as compared to the prior year quarter.
Advertising revenue decreased $4.9 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a lower number of live regular season professional sports telecasts. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in distribution revenue of $1.8 million, primarily reflecting the absence of revenues from Altice during MSG Networks’ non-carriage period from January 1, 2025 through February 21, 2025 in the prior year quarter, partially offset by a decrease in total subscribers of approximately 16.0% (excluding the impact of the Altice non-carriage period in the prior year quarter).
For the first quarter 2026, direct operating expenses of $70.4 million decreased $17.4 million, or 20%, as compared to the prior year quarter. Rights fees expense decreased $16.5 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting reductions in media rights fees as a result of the amendments to MSG Networks’ media rights agreements with certain professional sports teams.
For the first quarter 2026, selling, general and administrative expenses of $15.1 million decreased $2.8 million, or 15%, as compared to the prior year quarter. This decrease was primarily due to (i) lower professional fees of $3.6 million, mainly due to the absence of costs associated with pursuing a work-out of MSG Networks’ credit facilities recorded in the prior year quarter, and (ii) lower employee compensation and related benefits of $2.3 million, partially offset by (iii) higher advertising and marketing costs of $3.0 million.
For the first quarter 2026, operating income of $32.1 million increased $16.9 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower direct operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, lower selling, general and administrative expenses (including merger, debt work-out and acquisition related costs), partially offset by the decrease in revenues. Adjusted operating income of $35.7 million increased $12.9 million, or 56%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower direct operating expenses, partially offset by the decrease in revenues and higher selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding merger, debt work-out and acquisition related costs).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We define adjusted operating income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) before (i) depreciation, amortization and impairments of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, (ii) amortization for capitalized cloud computing arrangement costs, (iii) share-based compensation expense, (iv) restructuring charges or credits, (v) merger, debt work-out and acquisition-related costs, including merger-related litigation expenses, net of insurance recoveries, (vi) gains or losses on sales or dispositions of businesses and associated settlements, (vii) the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to business acquisitions, and (viii) gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the Company’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. We believe that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense or benefit allows investors to better track the performance of our business without regard to the settlement of an obligation that is not expected to be made in cash. We eliminate merger, debt work-out and acquisition-related costs, including merger related litigation expenses, net of insurance recoveries, when applicable, because the Company does not consider such costs to be indicative of the ongoing operating performance of the Company as they result from an event that is of a non-recurring nature, thereby enhancing comparability. In addition, management believes that the exclusion of gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the Company’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, provides investors with a clearer picture of the Company’s operating performance given that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the Company’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan are recognized in operating income (loss) whereas gains and losses related to the remeasurement of the assets under the Company’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, which are equal to and therefore fully offset the gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities, are recognized in other income (expense), net, which is not reflected in operating income (loss).
We believe adjusted operating income (loss) is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our business segments and the Company on a consolidated basis. Adjusted operating income (loss) and similar measures with similar titles are common performance measures used by investors and analysts to analyze our performance. Internally, we use revenues and adjusted operating income (loss) as the most important indicators of our business performance, and evaluate management’s effectiveness with specific reference to these indicators. Adjusted operating income (loss) should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, and other measures of performance and/or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Since adjusted operating income (loss) is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures with similar titles used by other companies. For a reconciliation of operating income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss), please see page 5 of this release.
