Download the Complete Report Here Key Takeaways: 2Q26 revenue of $17.7 million, supported by ~$32 million of sponsorship contract value, provided the first commercial validation of ENHA’s integrated sports and performance-medicine model. Revenue reached $17.7 million versus none a year ago, supported by ~$32 million of sponsorship contract value across 10 sponsors. However, the initial revenue base was concentrated and largely non-cash, with roughly $17.5 million tied to two sponsorship arrangements that included Rezolve equity and Rumble advertising inventory. Against Street’s $43.7 million 2026E revenue estimate (source: TIKR), 1H26 revenue represents ~41% of the full-year estimate, leaving ~$26 million to be generated in 2H26. The focus now shifts to sponsor diversification, stronger cash conversion and meaningful scaling of Live Enhanced. The inaugural Enhanced Games established immediate audience and brand scale, creating a commercial benchmark for future sponsorship and media-rights monetization. The Games generated more than 4 million live views excluding Roku, while Roku distribution made it available across ~100 million North American households. Total global reach exceeded 1 billion people, supported by ~4,000 media stories reaching a combined 16.7 billion unique monthly visitors. A one-hour ESPN E:60 documentary provided additional mainstream media validation. Owned audience increased 884%, social engagements rose 419%, and video views increased 227% during the event period. ENHA now enters future commercial discussions with demonstrated viewership rather than a conceptual property, after securing ~$32 million of sponsorship contract value. As of June 30, ~$4.5 million remained allocated to unsatisfied sponsorship performance obligations, providing modest forward revenue visibility as ENHA expands sponsorship, media-rights and other event monetization. The key next step is converting this reach into repeatable, higher-quality monetization across both the sports property and Live Enhanced. Brand research indicates the inaugural Games established meaningful awareness and brand strength, supporting ENHA’s customer-acquisition strategy. A pre-Games Qualtrics survey found 61% awareness and a 67% positive perception among those familiar with the property, while post-event research positioned Enhanced alongside Hyrox and The CrossFit Games despite its limited operating history. Combined with the 884% increase in owned audience and 1 billion+ global reach, these results suggest the Games investment established meaningful brand equity that ENHA can potentially monetize through Live Enhanced rather than relying on each event as a standalone marketing spend. Athlete outcomes and clinical execution strengthen ENHA’s sports property while building the proprietary-data foundation for Live Enhanced. ENHA has produced three world records across its competitions since inception, including one at the inaugural Games, alongside 21 personal bests across 42 athletes. All athletes also completed the interventional phase of its IRB-approved clinical trial safely, with the medical team making 274 protocol adjustments in the two months before the Games and generating data across biomarkers, interventions and individual responses. The broader performance narrative now extends beyond headline records toward transparent protocols, health outcomes and individualized performance improvement, better aligning the sports property with Live Enhanced’s consumer opportunity across recovery, longevity and everyday performance. The successful Games have also strengthened athlete recruiting, with Olympic champions and world-record holders expressing interest in future events, supporting a reinforcing loop in which stronger rosters can deepen both audience engagement and the data feeding Live Enhanced. Live Enhanced is becoming the more important next-stage proof point as commercialization begins to scale. The platform became fully operational in mid-May, leaving only several weeks of contribution in 2Q, while sponsorship remained the dominant source of the $17.7 million of revenue. Live Enhanced now offers 11 Rx products in the U.S. and two proprietary supplement stacks, with supplements available across 34 countries. The largest customer cohort is currently aged approximately 25 to 45, although demand extends across both genders and into older age groups, supporting an addressable consumer base broader than an athlete-centric demographic. Management cited strong weekly and monthly cohort growth and expects momentum to continue through 2H26 as new categories launch. Enhanced OS materially sharpens the consumer strategy by positioning ENHA around personalized performance medicine. Planned for launch later in 2026, Enhanced OS is designed to combine baseline health information, personal goals, therapies and supplements, wearables and ongoing response data to continuously adjust individual performance protocols. ENHA intends to apply the medical learnings generated through 274 athlete protocol adjustments to a broader consumer population, creating a data and intelligence layer around products that may otherwise become commoditized. Personalization could support multiple-product adoption, stronger retention and higher lifetime value while reducing reliance on price as the primary differentiator. It also completes the intended operating flywheel: sports creates attention and trust, athletes generate data and credibility, Enhanced OS converts those learnings into individual consumer protocols, and a growing consumer population creates additional data that can further improve personalization. The Rezolve relationship could also extend beyond sponsorship, with its AI-commerce capabilities potentially supporting Live Enhanced commerce and conversion as Enhanced OS develops. Peptides represent potentially meaningful regulatory upside for Live Enhanced. Following July FDA advisory activity, ENHA intends to launch six peptides receiving favorable advisory-panel support if the regulatory pathway permits, while strengthening U.S. pharmacy and supply-chain partnerships to support personalized compounding, nationwide fulfillment and improved product margins. Regulatory clarity could expand the addressable market beyond consumers already sourcing peptides through gray-market channels to a broader population unwilling to use untested or unregulated supply. ENHA’s differentiation is likely to depend less on access to individual peptides and more on personalization, protocol design and the data layer around them. As regulatory access broadens and the underlying molecules become more commoditized, Enhanced OS, biomarker and lifestyle data, and individualized protocols should become increasingly important sources of competitive differentiation. Management also expects to expand into cognitive enhancement and other lifestyle-oriented performance categories, broadening the product funnel and creating more opportunities to increase products per customer, wallet share and ultimately lifetime value. ENHA is evolving the sports side from a single annual tentpole toward a year-round engagement and customer-acquisition ecosystem. The first Enhanced Breakers event was held in Los Angeles in July and produced a new weightlifting world record while operating at a fraction of the scale and fixed cost of the inaugural Games. Breakers can expand into additional sports, keep athletes competing between flagship events, provide more frequent content, and give sponsors additional activation opportunities throughout the year. ENHA is also evaluating partnerships with participatory communities such as run clubs and local competitions, extending the concept beyond elite athletes toward a broader base of amateur athletes and health-conscious consumers. Together, these formats could create more frequent, lower-cost touchpoints that keep performance medicine visible year-round. If successfully executed, the model could reduce reliance on purchased digital traffic and strengthen sports as a recurring acquisition channel for Live Enhanced. Marketing is increasingly shifting from purchased acquisition toward owned media and community, but the economic advantage still needs to be demonstrated through conversion and retention. ENHA spent approximately $1.6 million on performance marketing in 2Q, while the larger customer-acquisition investment was embedded in the Games, which generated more than 4 million live views, 1 billion+ global reach and an 884% increase in owned audience. Breakers, athlete content and planned participatory events are intended to sustain that attention between flagship Games and reduce reliance on paid traffic over time. The model could support structurally lower CAC if Games- and community-acquired consumers convert at attractive rates and show stronger retention, but conversion, CAC and retention remain undisclosed. The next stage of the thesis therefore requires ENHA to demonstrate that owned attention can translate into superior customer economics. With the inaugural build complete, future Games economics should improve as ENHA monetizes the infrastructure, audience and commercial relationships established through the first event. Games, athlete and event operating costs reached $52.0 million in 2Q26, contributing to total operating expenses of $79.6 million versus $3.1 million a year ago. Operating and net losses were both $61.9 million compared with approximately $3.0 million in 2Q25, while net loss per share widened to $0.53 from $0.03. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $42.7 million versus negative $2.7 million, bringing the 1H26 adjusted EBITDA loss to $56.2 million. These results reflect the deliberate front-loaded investment required to build the venue, broadcast infrastructure and supporting event platform largely from scratch. A meaningful portion of this cost base should not recur at the same level, with the pool and track available for reuse across future Games and Breakers, while the lower-cost Breakers format provides a way to maintain sports engagement without replicating the scale and fixed cost of the flagship event. ENHA is also evaluating future host cities partly on economic-development financing and other incentives, creating another opportunity to reduce net event costs and support operating leverage as the model scales. The revenue opportunity should also broaden as the Games evolve from a proof-of-concept event into a repeatable sports property. The inaugural event was invitation-only and monetized primarily through sponsorship, whereas future Games could add ticket sales alongside sponsorship and media-rights revenue while leveraging infrastructure and commercial relationships already established. ENHA now enters those discussions with a tangible benchmark of more than 4 million live views and ~$32 million of sponsorship contract value, giving the company greater leverage when pricing sponsorships, media rights and venue economics. The inaugural Games therefore established the upfront sports infrastructure and audience proof point; the next phase is converting those assets into a more scalable revenue-to-cost relationship as the property repeats and monetization expands. Underlying corporate costs were materially below reported 2Q levels, supporting a clearer path to operating leverage as revenue scales. SG&A was $16.6 million, including $4.2 million of Rumble advertising expense and $6.9 million of stock-based compensation, leaving approximately $5.5 million of underlying SG&A, including $1.8 million of salaries and wages and $1.6 million of performance marketing. Transaction expenses added another $10.9 million in 2Q and $12.5 million in 1H26 and should largely roll off. Combined with lower future event costs, this points to a materially leaner expense base entering 2H26 and strengthens the potential for operating leverage as revenue scales. Liquidity reflects the early-stage investment cycle following the inaugural Games, with post-quarter financing activity and liability management helping to support the near-term position. ENHA ended 2Q26 with $19.6 million of cash after using $44.0 million of operating cash and $7.4 million of investing cash during 1H26, while accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $40.1 million. Following quarter-end, management repaid approximately $10 million of payables, reducing accounts payable to roughly $16 million while maintaining cash near $20 million as of the filing date. ENHA also holds approximately $10 million of Rezolve shares that remain locked through December, while the unrecognized $10 million Zoop title sponsorship provides additional potential value if collectability requirements are satisfied. Despite these sources, additional financing will be required to fund planned operations over the next twelve months. Street estimates sourced from TIKR show EBITDA improving from negative $64.7 million in 2026E to negative $7.5 million in 2027E before turning positive at $51.8 million in 2028E, making the pace of cash-burn normalization a key determinant of future financing needs and dilution. The forward setup now depends on a meaningful 2H operating improvement as ENHA transitions from front-loaded platform investment toward revenue scaling and a more normalized cost base. Current Street estimates sourced from TIKR indicate 2026E revenue of $43.7 million, followed by $131.7 million in 2027E and $256.6 million in 2028E. EBITDA is expected to improve from negative $64.7 million in 2026E to negative $7.5 million in 2027E before turning positive at $51.8 million in 2028E, with margins improving to +20.2% by 2028. With approximately $17.7 million of revenue and negative $56.2 million of adjusted EBITDA through 1H26, estimates imply approximately $26.0 million of 2H26 revenue and an ~$8.5 million EBITDA loss in 2H26, representing a substantial sequential improvement. The absence of another inaugural-scale Games build should materially reduce the expense base, while sponsorship recognition, Live Enhanced commercialization and broader product expansion provide the principal revenue levers into year-end. Delivery against current estimates would provide early evidence that the front-loaded investment made in 1H26 can translate into a significantly more scalable cost structure and eventual operating leverage. Disclaimer: Exec Edge does not publish proprietary estimates, ratings, price targets, or investment recommendations. The valuation discussion below is illustrative only and is based on company filings, management commentary, and third-party data and estimates. It does not constitute a recommendation, price target, rating, or prediction of future pricing. Valuation has compressed materially from the SPAC transaction, creating a meaningful disconnect between current enterprise value and ENHA’s longer-term earnings potential. At a share price of $1.96 and approximately 129 million Class A shares outstanding, ENHA’s implied market capitalization is approximately $252.8 million. Using approximately $20 million of pro forma cash and no financial debt, we calculate enterprise value of approximately $232.8 million. Current enterprise value is therefore more than 80% below the ~$1.2 billion SPAC transaction valuation, reflecting substantial investor skepticism around execution, financing requirements and the timing of profitability. Forward valuation becomes increasingly compelling if ENHA delivers against current 2027-2028 scaling assumptions. Based on current estimates, ENHA trades at approximately 5.3x 2026E revenue, 1.8x 2027E revenue and 0.9x 2028E revenue. EBITDA is expected to remain negative through 2027E before inflecting to positive $51.8 million in 2028E, implying approximately 4.5x 2028E EV/EBITDA and a 20.2% margin. The current valuation therefore embeds a meaningful discount for execution risk, particularly given the substantial revenue growth and margin improvement required over the next two years. Relative valuation remains highly discounted if Live Enhanced develops into the primary earnings engine rather than ENHA being valued principally as an emerging sports property. ENHA trades at approximately 1.8x 2027E revenue and 0.9x 2028E revenue versus subscription-health peer averages of 3.2x and 2.7x, respectively. By 2028E, ENHA’s 4.5x EV/EBITDA also compares with a 14.3x subscription-health peer average. The discount is notable given estimates implying a 142.3% revenue CAGR for ENHA from 2026-2028 versus approximately 17.3% for the subscription-health group. Sports peers trade at substantially higher revenue multiples, averaging 6.4x 2027E and 6.1x 2028E revenue, although their slower growth and different economics make that comparison less directly relevant. The valuation gap remains understandable given ENHA’s limited operating history, near-term financing needs and delayed EBITDA breakeven, but measurable consumer conversion, improving retention and CAC, Enhanced OS adoption and lower recurring event costs could increasingly support a rerating toward the subscription-health framework. Rerating drivers are becoming increasingly measurable as the investment case shifts from proving ENHA can create attention and commercial demand toward demonstrating that those assets can compound through recurring consumer monetization. The inaugural Games generated 1 billion+ global reach, more than 4 million live views excluding Roku and approximately $32 million of sponsorship contract value, while 21 personal bests and 274 athlete protocol adjustments strengthened the data and credibility supporting Live Enhanced. The next phase is translating that foundation into recurring consumer revenue, stronger customer economics and a materially lower recurring event cost base. Delivery against estimates of $131.7 million of revenue in 2027E and $256.6 million in 2028E, alongside EBITDA improving from negative $7.5 million to positive $51.8 million, would materially de-risk the current valuation. The next several quarters should therefore be judged less by incremental media reach and more by Live Enhanced conversion, retention and acquisition efficiency, cash-burn normalization, and ENHA’s ability to sustain the sports flywheel through lower-cost formats such as Breakers and community participation.

A non GAAP financial measure. With that, I will now turn the call over to David. David J. Collins: Thank you, Ari, and good morning, everyone. Fiscal 26 was an outstanding year for our company. With full year revenues of more than $1 billion and adjusted operating income of $262 million. This represented increases of 13, 18%, respectively, driven by growth across all key areas of our business. In addition, we continue to execute on 1 of our core capital allocation priorities during the year, repurchasing approximately $25 million of our Class A common stock. And in June, we announced the proposed transfer of the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden as part of the Penn Station redevelopment project. A transaction that, if finalized, would further our goal of creating long term shareholder value. As we head into fiscal 27, we look to build on our operating momentum with a continued focus on growing the number of events across our venues, increasing per event profitability, delivering another record setting year for the Christmas Spectacular, and advancing our sponsorship and premium hospitality businesses. We also anticipate strong ongoing demand from consumers and partners alike. Which we believe sets us up for another year of solid growth in revenues and AOI in fiscal 27. Let's now review some key operational highlights. During fiscal 26, we hosted approximately 6.4 million guests at nearly 960 live events. That included a strong fiscal fourth quarter where we more than doubled the number of concerts at the Garden year over year. Reflecting our efforts to drive utilization within the NBA playoff window. And in terms of consumer demand, majority of our concerts were again sold out during the quarter. Looking ahead to fiscal 27, we expect to grow the number of events at our venues year over year as we host a wide range of bookings across concerts, special events, family shows, and marquee sports. This includes a number of high profile upcoming events, such as Harry Styles residency, with 30 dates from August through October, and return of the NCAA Men's Basketball East Regionals to The Garden in March. Turning to the Christmas spectacular production, During fiscal 26 across 215 paid performances, we sold over 1.2 million tickets. Highest attendance in 25 years. Leading to another record setting year for the production with approximately $195 million in revenue. We are currently on sale with 230 shows for the 2026 holiday season, a new high in terms of number of performances in a year. This year's show will feature the addition of a new Rockettes scene as well as new immersive technology that will give audiences different perspectives of the production as we continue innovating going into our 93rd season. In terms of our agreements with MSG Sports, the Knicks and Rangers completed their 25, 26 regular seasons during the quarter, the Knicks advancing to the NBA playoffs and ultimately going on to win the NBA championship. For both our fourth quarter and full year, we saw robust growth on a per game basis in our Knicks and Rangers shared revenue streams. Including sweets and food, beverage, and merchandise, all benefit from the Knicks postseason run. We expect this momentum to carry forward into fiscal 27. In addition, the cash component of the Arena license fees will be approximately $47 million in fiscal 27 and will continue to grow 3% each year through fiscal 2020. On the marketing partnerships front, we capitalized on several notable opportunities in fiscal 26. We welcome new partners, including most recently, a multiyear deal with Kalshi while also reaching multiyear renewals with Lexus, Anheuser Busch, and Infosys. And in terms of premium hospitality, we again saw strong new sales renewal activity for suites at the Garden. That included a number of Lexus level suites that were renovated at the start of the fiscal year. We are continuing to build on the successful initiative by renovating several more suites to drive incremental revenue in fiscal 27. So as we look to the next fiscal year, we expect the positive momentum in both marketing partnerships and premium hospitality to continue. Turning to the Penn Station redevelopment, In May, Amtrak selected Penn transformation partners, led by Halmar International and Skanska as the master developer team to redevelop Penn Station. We then announced in June that we had entered into a nonbinding MOU with a master developer to transfer the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden. Our proposed agreement will also acknowledge that the arena will remain fully operational during the redevelopment. We believe the potential transaction which remains subject to negotiation and definitive documents, would make strategic and financial sense for the company as we look to create long term value for our shareholders. We look forward to working with the master developer team and will keep you updated as we have more to share. Now let's turn to our financial results. For the fiscal 26 fourth quarter, revenues were $196.3 million, up 27% year over year. This primarily reflected an increase in revenues from entertainment offerings and, to a lesser extent, higher food, beverage, and merchandise revenues. The increase in revenues from entertainment offerings as well as food, beverage, and merchandise primarily reflected the increase in number of concerts at the Garden during the quarter. In addition, we benefited from higher revenues subject to our sharing of economics with MSG Sports including the benefit of the Knicks championship run, in areas such as merchandise. Revenues from venue related sponsorship, signage, and suite license fees also grew year over year. These increases were partially offset by fewer concerts at our theaters. Fourth quarter adjusted operating income of $18.6 million increased $19.9 million from an adjusted operating loss of $1.3 million in the prior year quarter. This significant year over year growth primarily reflects the robust increase in revenues, partially offset by higher direct operating and SG&A expenses. Turning to our balance sheet. As of June 30, we had $294 million of unrestricted cash while our debt balance was approximately $579 million. This cash balance includes a significant amount due to promoters, which reflects the robust concert activity ahead at our venues led by the garden. With respect to fiscal 27, we anticipate generating significant free cash flow on an underlying basis. This will primarily be driven by our substantial and growing adjusted operating income partially offset by ongoing net interest payments related to our credit facilities, which totaled $32 million in fiscal 26, our status as a full cash taxpayer, capital expenditures, which will reflect some incremental spend related to technology investments across the company, and select suite renovations at the garden and the timing of working capital, including the partial reversal of our cash due to promoters balance as a result of the timing of events. As I touched on earlier, we repurchased approximately 623 thousand shares of our class a common stock $25 million during fiscal 26. Since our spin off in 2023, we have repurchased approximately 6.1 million shares in total for $205 million. And going forward, we will continue to explore ways to opportunistically return capital to shareholders. So in summary, we saw strong demand across our business in fiscal 26. We see this momentum continuing in fiscal 27, and remain confident in our ability to deliver long term shareholder value. I will now turn the call back over to Ari. Ari Danes: Thanks, David. Operator, can we now open up the call for questions? Operator: We will now begin the question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press 1 to raise your hand. To withdraw your question, please press 1 again. We ask that you pick up your handset when asking a question to allow for optimum sound quality. If you are muted locally, please remember to unmute your device. Please standby while we compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from the line of Peter Henderson with Bank of America. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Peter Henderson: Good morning. Thank you for taking the questions. 2 if I can related. Can you just update us on the status of the Infosys Theater sale process? And if that sale occurs, you know, how much of the venue's event volume and associated economics, like the sponsorship, You know, do you believe you can recapture elsewhere in your portfolio? David J. Collins: Sure. Good morning, Peter. Thanks. for the question. First, I would like to congratulate Penn and Transformation Partners on being selected to redevelop Penn Station and as I had mentioned earlier, we believe that this potential transaction is in line with our goal of creating long term, value for our shareholders. So currently, we are working through the definitive documents with their team, and we will keep you posted on that progress. You know, as it relates to our ability to redirect the theaters business, you know, first, I would remind you that you know, a significant majority of our company's economics are driven by the garden and the Christmas spectacular production. You know, the theaters in aggregate, follow those 2 revenue streams. That said, we are we are exploring all opportunities to the economic benefit of this potential transaction with the which does include analyzing our ability to shift events from the Infosys Theater to our other theaters in New York. And I would say in terms of sponsorship and signage, you know, our partnerships do generally allow us the flexibility within our business you know, while protecting the value delivered to our partners. So, you know, similar to events, we are evaluating ways to leverage our other live entertainment assets you know, for sponsorship and signage. Great. Thank you. Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Brandon Ross with LightShed. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Brandon Ross: Good morning. Thanks for taking the question. Maybe a follow-up on the last 1. Assuming the Infosys sale does go through, how do you guys expect to, use the proceeds and limit tax leakage at the same time? And, do those options include partnering with Sphere potentially on a New York Sphere or Sphere elsewhere? Thank you. David J. Collins: Thanks, Brandon. You know, I would say, you know, with regard to the proposed transfer of the theater, you know, our focus right now is on completing the proposed transaction. No decisions have been made at this stage, in terms of the use of those proceeds, should the transfer be completed. But, you know, with that said, we are certainly mindful of the potential tax implications related to the transfer of the theater. And, you know, as you may know, the primary way to minimize the tax leakage would be to reinvest you know, the potential proceeds in another venue. So, of course, we would evaluate venue opportunities in New York City market if they, you know, are presented to us in the future. But you know, I do not think we are in a position to speculate on any hypothetical venue transactions at this time. I would also add that any decision that we do make will be in line with our core priorities for capital allocation, which, as you know, are you know, ensuring that continue to have a strong balance sheet, that we maintain our flexibility to pursue compelling opportunities, you know, when they arise. And lastly, to opportunistically return capital to our shareholders. So you know, we will continue to make our decisions based on these priorities, And you know, we will have more to share as we move through that process. Thanks, Brandon. Ari Danes: Operator, we will take the next question. Operator: Your next question comes from Stephen Laszczyk with Goldman Sachs. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Stephen Laszczyk: Great. Thanks for taking the question. I wanted to see if you could provide an update on the pacing of event bookings in 2027 across the portfolio. Just to be curious how much visibility you have into bookings potentially growing at the Garden year over year, and then wanted to check-in on the pacing of bookings around the theater footprint since we last caught up in the in the third quarter, how that is progressed since? Thank you. David J. Collins: Sure, Stephen. You know, in terms of our progress, we are we are almost 90% to our bookings goal for this year. For the garden. And about 60% of the way there for 60% of the way to our goal for our theaters. You know, our fiscal first quarter is already underway, and you know, we remain on track to shatter our record for the number of concerts in any quarter at the Garden. You know, obviously, that includes the impact of the Harry Styles residency, At our theaters, we are currently pacing behind for the September quarter. And looking at the December quarter, we are again pacing ahead at the Garden in terms of the number of concerts but still behind at the theaters. However, you know, as I have discussed in the past, the booking window at our theaters is typically a 3 to 6 months in advance window. So you know, we do still have time, and we are definitely working to narrow that gap So I would say, overall, all in, we feel good about our start to the year and expect to drive growth at both the garden and our theaters in fiscal 27. Great. Thank you very much. Operator: Your next question comes from the line of David Karnovsky with JPMorgan. Your line is open. Please go ahead. David Karnovsky: Hey. Thank you for that color on the upcoming year. As it relates to the Christmas show, can you just update on sales pacing and price strategy? And you mentioned 32 show count. Is there any room to move that higher if the demand is there? Thanks. David J. Collins: Sure, David. You know, while it is still early in the sales cycle, you know, our expectation is that we will grow ticketing revenue this year. You know, which reflects both more shows and higher average ticket yields. You know, as you mentioned, we are we are on sale with 230 performances right now for the 2026 holiday season, which is up from 215 last year, and that translates to a, you know, mid single-digit percentage increase in show count year over year. In addition, the Christmas Spectacular continues to be a premium entertainment product and is still priced well below average ticket prices for comparable entertainment options in the city. So, you know, given all that, you know, we will continue to thoughtfully manage and market and price our inventory, you know, to maximize revenue for every show. I would again note that this year's show will feature the addition of a new Rockette scene as well as new immersive technology. Which we believe will give audiences a different perspective of the production So, you know, we continue to believe that our efforts to continue innovating the show will help drive increased interest and we remain confident in the growth opportunity for the 2026 holiday season. Operator: Your next question comes in line of Cameron Mansson-Perrone with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Cameron Mansson-Perrone: Thanks. Good morning. I wanted to ask a general 1 on residency models. Specifically, you know, when you lost the Billy Joel residency, it took you some time to replace that activity. Obviously, found a great replacement and Harry Styles, but looking back on that, you know, why was the situation with Billy Joel maybe unique And what do you think you can do, or have you done operationally to try to reduce similar volatility around residency changes year to year going forward? Thanks. David J. Collins: that is a that is a good question, Cameron. You know, we believe there is great value, obviously, in bringing residencies, to our venues. You know? We believe it builds more of a, you know, recurring base of our business, and it really also increases the visibility into our forward calendar. So you know, bringing residencies remains a really important area for our bookings business and, you know, a key focus of our team. You know, with that said, you know, every residency is going to look a little different. Right? You know, artists want to put their own unique structure and spin on their residency. You know, for example, Billy Joel you know, that was 1 concert per month, you know, where with Harry Styles, that means every Wednesday Friday, Saturday, you know, for 10 straight weeks. So you know, each 1's going to look a little different. I would also note that you know, we also have a number of other residencies across our venues in the first half of fiscal 27, you know, Bon Jovi and Phish have been at the Garden both this past month. Joe Hisaishi currently at Radio City, and Seth Meyers and John Oliver as well as Jerry Seinfeld have each extended their long running residencies, at the Beacon Theater. So you know, I would reiterate that, you know, we are off to a strong start. In terms of our concert booking for fiscal 27. And, you know, while it is a little early to discuss fiscal 28 and beyond, you know, we continue to have discussions with other artists about future residencies at all our venues, you know, including the garden. So we will certainly keep working on that and keep you updated on the progress. that is helpful. Appreciate it. Operator: Your next question comes from the line of David Joyce with Seaport. Your line is open. Please go ahead. David Joyce: Thank you. I appreciate the color that you had an increase in Madison Square Garden sharing, revenue, from the Knicks championship run. Could you please detail the revenue and AOI components on the various business lines that contribute to that? The sponsorship that provide some of that. I know you did not mention merchandise. Food and beverage, suites. If you could please help us understand, what that content is. Sure, David. David J. Collins: You know, first of all, I would say that we were very excited to see the Knicks win the NBA championship. You know, as you mentioned, you know, we benefit from those playoff games at the Garden through our agreements with MSG Sports. You know, we share in revenue streams like F&B, merchandise, and single-night suite rentals. You know, first of all, we operate and manage the F&B services during all team events, and MSGE shares 50% of the net profits with the Knicks and Rangers. We also operate and manage the team merchandise sales at the Garden and retain 30% of net revenues. We also earn a commission on sales of single night sweets at the Garden during Knicks and Rangers games. So this year, we hosted 9 Knicks playoff games during the team's championship run. You know, while that compares to the same number of games in the year ago period, when the team advanced to the Eastern Conference finals today's results reflect a $7.4 million increase in fourth quarter revenues related to our agreements with MSG Sports which includes that, you the impact of the championship run. So you know, we believe that this reflects the enthusiasm we saw from fans throughout this year's championship run in those areas such as merchandise and F&B sales, and 1 thing I also like to say is that we believe that strong team performance will benefit this upcoming year in the form of, you know, continued strong in arena attendance which will further benefit, you know, our shared revenue streams with MSG Sports. Thanks for the question, David. Ari Danes: Operator, we will take 1 last caller. Operator: Your last question comes from the line of Joseph Stauff. Your line is open. Please go ahead. Joseph Stauff: Good morning. This is Eric Mandelblatt on for Joe. Thanks for the question. Just 1 from us. Gave some helpful details on the fiscal 27 bookings outlook in aggregate. But could you talk about the bookings outlook by category across concerts, special events, family shows, and marquee sporting events? Thank you. David J. Collins: Thanks for the question, Eric, As I mentioned earlier, we expect to increase the number of bookings in fiscal 27 You know, we expect that growth to be driven primarily by concerts. And, to a lesser extent, special events and marquee sports. For our concert category, you know, our expectations include another year of concert growth at The Garden as well as increases across our theaters. I would say in terms of special events, we are also expecting an increase in the number of events along with improved per event economics looking at marquee sports, you know, we expect to see modest event growth this coming year, which will include the NCAA East Regional Tournament returning to The Garden in March, and that will be a significant multi day event in our fiscal third quarter. And lastly, in terms of our family show category, I would say we faced a tough year over year comparison with the absence of Cirque du Soleil's holiday run at the Infosys Theater and the Chicago Theater that took place this past year. However, you know, we expect that to be largely offset by a variety of family and performing arts attractions in the year ahead, including the Les Misérables production that just ran at Radio City Music Hall. So overall, we are expecting growth across a number of our bookings categories and feel really good about our booking calendar for fiscal 27. Operator: We have reached the end of the question and answer session. I will now turn the call back to Ari for closing remarks. Ari Danes: Thank you all for joining us. We look forward to speaking with you on our fiscal 27 first quarter earnings conference call. Have a good day. Operator: This concludes today's call. Thank you for attending. You may now disconnect.

Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. (NYSE:MSGE) shares gained 3.31% in premarket trading on Wednesday after the live entertainment company reported fiscal fourth-quarter earnings and revenue above Wall Street expectations. The company posted a quarterly loss of $0.21 per share, considerably narrower than the analyst consensus forecast for a loss of $0.58 per share. Revenue climbed 27% year on year to $196.3 million from $154.1 million, exceeding the consensus estimate of $184.7 million. The increase was primarily supported by greater concert activity at Madison Square Garden Arena and stronger food and beverage sales. For fiscal 2026, MSG Entertainment generated total revenue of $1.06 billion, representing an increase of 13% from $942.7 million in the previous year. Around 6.4 million guests attended nearly 960 events across the company’s venues during the year. These included concerts, special events and games associated with the New York Knicks’ championship run. Full-year adjusted operating income increased 18% to $262.2 million from $222.5 million in the prior fiscal year, reflecting stronger activity across the company’s live entertainment portfolio. Revenue from entertainment offerings increased by $34.0 million, or 29%, to $152.7 million during the fourth quarter. The improvement was largely driven by a greater number of concerts at The Garden, together with higher revenue generated per concert. Food, beverage and merchandise revenue increased 22% to $32.2 million. Growth was supported by the higher level of concert activity and increased per-game revenue from New York Knicks and New York Rangers games. “Today’s results reflect the strong demand we continue to see for our live entertainment offerings,” said Executive Chairman and CEO James L. Dolan. “Looking ahead, we are well positioned to drive solid growth in adjusted operating income in fiscal ’27 and remain confident in our ability to deliver long-term shareholder value.” MSG Entertainment reported an operating loss of $8.6 million for the fourth quarter, a substantial improvement from the $25.8 million operating loss recorded in the corresponding period last year. The narrower loss accompanied higher revenue across concerts and venue-related spending, while the company’s full-year adjusted operating income also showed double-digit growth. Following the stronger-than-expected quarterly performance, management expects continued momentum into fiscal 2027 and is targeting solid growth in adjusted operating income as demand for live entertainment remains strong.

The Christmas Spectacular also posted its highest attendance in 25 years, and MSGE plans a record 230 performances for the 2026 holiday season. The company cited strong contributions from Knicks-related operations, sponsorships, premium hospitality and suite sales, while negotiations continue over a potential transfer of the Infosys Theater tied to the Penn Station redevelopment. MSGE ended the year with $294 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $579 million of debt. Madison Square Garden Entertainment (NYSE:MSGE) reported fiscal 2026 revenue of more than $1 billion and adjusted operating income of $262 million, representing year-over-year increases of 13% and 18%, respectively, as the company cited growth across its live entertainment, holiday production, sponsorship and premium hospitality businesses. David Collins, executive vice president and chief financial officer, said the company hosted about 6.4 million guests at nearly 960 live events during the fiscal year. He said the fiscal fourth quarter included more than twice as many concerts at Madison Square Garden as in the prior-year period, aided by efforts to increase utilization during the NBA playoff window. The majority of concerts were sold out during the quarter, according to Collins. → SoundHound AI Sends a Loud Signal After Its Q2 Earnings Beat Fiscal fourth-quarter revenue rose 27% from a year earlier to $196.3 million. Collins attributed the increase primarily to higher revenue from entertainment offerings, as well as increased food, beverage and merchandise revenue. The growth reflected a higher number of concerts at Madison Square Garden, along with higher shared revenue from MSG Sports-related operations. Adjusted operating income was $18.6 million in the quarter, compared with an adjusted operating loss of $1.3 million a year earlier. The improvement was driven by revenue growth, partially offset by higher direct operating and selling, general and administrative expenses. → AST SpaceMobile Earnings Just Reminded Investors How Risky Space Can Be The company ended the fiscal year on June 30 with $294 million of unrestricted cash and approximately $579 million of debt. Collins noted that the cash balance includes a significant amount due to promoters, reflecting a robust schedule of upcoming concerts, particularly at Madison Square Garden. For fiscal 2027, MSG Entertainment expects to generate significant underlying free cash flow, supported by adjusted operating income growth. Factors offsetting cash generation include net interest payments, capital expenditures related to technology investments and suite renovations, taxes, and working-capital timing. → First Solar’s Profit Engine Faces a New Policy Test in Washington The Christmas Spectacular featuring the Radio City Rockettes generated approximately $195 million in fiscal 2026 revenue. Across 215 paid performances, the production sold more than 1.2 million tickets, its highest attendance level in 25 years, Collins said. The company has put 230 performances on sale for the 2026 holiday season, a new annual high and a mid-single-digit percentage increase from the prior year’s show count. Management expects ticketing revenue to increase, reflecting both additional performances and higher average ticket yields. This year’s production will include a new Rockettes scene and new immersive technology intended to provide audiences with different perspectives of the show. Collins said the company continues to view the production as a premium entertainment offering that remains priced below average ticket prices for comparable New York City entertainment options. MSG Entertainment expects to increase events across its venues in fiscal 2027, with growth led primarily by concerts and, to a lesser extent, special events and marquee sports. The company’s schedule includes Harry Styles’ 30-date Madison Square Garden residency from August through October, as well as the NCAA Men’s Basketball East Regional, scheduled to return to the arena in March. Collins said the company is nearly 90% toward its booking goal for Madison Square Garden and about 60% toward its goal for its theaters. During the fiscal first quarter, the company expects to set a record for the number of concerts held in a quarter at Madison Square Garden, including the effect of the Harry Styles residency. Theater bookings were pacing behind for the September quarter, though Collins said theater bookings generally occur only months in advance and management is working to close the gap. Other residencies and extended engagements cited by management included Bon Jovi and Phish at Madison Square Garden, Joe Hisaishi at Radio City Music Hall, and extended Beacon Theatre residencies involving Seth Meyers and John Oliver as well as Jerry Seinfeld. Concert growth is expected at Madison Square Garden and across the company’s theaters. Special events are expected to increase, alongside improved per-event economics. Marquee sports events are projected to rise modestly, including the NCAA East Regional. Family-show comparisons will be difficult following Cirque du Soleil holiday runs at the Infosys Theater and Chicago Theatre, though the company expects other family and performing arts attractions to largely offset that impact. Collins said MSG Entertainment benefited from the New York Knicks’ championship postseason run through its agreements with MSG Sports. The company hosted nine Knicks playoff games and recorded a $7.4 million year-over-year increase in fourth-quarter revenue related to its MSG Sports agreements, including the impact of the championship run. MSG Entertainment operates food and beverage services during team events and shares 50% of net profits with the Knicks and Rangers. It also operates team merchandise sales at Madison Square Garden, retaining 30% of net revenue, and earns commissions on single-night suite sales during Knicks and Rangers games. Management said per-game growth in shared revenue streams included suites, food and beverage, and merchandise. The cash component of arena license fees is expected to be about $47 million in fiscal 2027 and is set to increase 3% annually through fiscal 2055. The company also announced new and renewed multiyear marketing agreements during fiscal 2026, including a new deal with Calci and renewals with Lexus, Anheuser-Busch and Infosys. It reported strong suite sales and renewals, and plans to renovate additional Lexus-level suites during fiscal 2027 to support incremental revenue. In June, MSG Entertainment announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Penn Transformation Partners regarding a potential transfer of the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden as part of the Penn Station redevelopment project. Penn Transformation Partners, led by Halmar International and Skanska, was selected by Amtrak as master developer for the project. Collins said definitive documents are being negotiated and that the arena is expected to remain fully operational during redevelopment. He said the company is evaluating opportunities to shift events from the Infosys Theater to other New York venues and to use other live-entertainment assets for sponsorship and signage if the transaction is completed. No decisions have been made on the use of potential transfer proceeds. Collins said reinvesting proceeds in another venue could help minimize potential tax leakage, while any capital-allocation decision would be guided by maintaining a strong balance sheet, preserving flexibility for opportunities and opportunistically returning capital to shareholders. During fiscal 2026, the company repurchased approximately 623,000 Class A shares for $25 million. Since its 2023 spinoff, it has repurchased about 6.1 million shares for $205 million.

Our analysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here. Fiscal 2026 performance was driven by a 13% revenue increase and 18% AOI growth, fueled by record-setting attendance for the Christmas Spectacular and increased event utilization at The Garden. The company successfully maximized the NBA playoff window by more than doubling the number of concerts at Madison Square Garden year-over-year during the fourth quarter. Management attributes robust per-game revenue growth to the New York Knicks' championship run, which significantly boosted high-margin shared revenue streams including merchandise and food and beverage. Strategic focus on premium hospitality yielded results through the renovation of Lexus-level suites, which drove incremental revenue and high renewal activity. The residency model remains a core strategic pillar, with management emphasizing that these multi-date bookings provide high visibility into the forward calendar and create a recurring business base. Operational efficiency at the Garden remains high, with the majority of concerts sold out during the quarter, reflecting sustained strong consumer demand for live entertainment. Management expects to grow the total number of events in fiscal 2027, supported by having already secured 90% of the booking goal for the Garden and 60% for theaters. The Christmas Spectacular is positioned for another record year with a planned increase to 230 performances and the introduction of new immersive technology to drive higher ticket yields. Fiscal 2027 guidance assumes significant free cash flow generation, though this will be partially offset by the company's status as a full cash taxpayer and planned technology investments. The company anticipates a record-shattering first quarter for concerts at the Garden, largely driven by the 30-date Harry Styles residency scheduled from August through October. Strategic capital allocation will prioritize maintaining a strong balance sheet while opportunistically returning capital to shareholders through share repurchases. The company entered a non-binding MOU to transfer the Infosys Theater as part of the Penn Station redevelopment, a move intended to unlock long-term shareholder value. Management noted that while theater bookings currently pace behind prior years for the first half of fiscal 2027, the typical 3-to-6-month booking window provides time to narrow the gap. The absence of Cirque du Soleil's holiday run in fiscal 2027 creates a headwind for the family show category, though management expects this to be offset by other performing arts attractions. The proposed theater transfer includes a critical stipulation that the main Madison Square Garden arena remains fully operational throughout the redevelopment process. One stock. Nvidia-level potential. 30M+ investors trust Moby to find it first. Get the pick. Tap here. Management clarified that the vast majority of company economics are driven by the Garden and the Christmas Spectacular, rather than the theaters. The company is evaluating the ability to shift event volume from the Infosys Theater to other New York venues and noted that partnership agreements provide flexibility to relocate sponsorship value. Management is exploring reinvestment in other New York City venue opportunities as the primary method to minimize tax leakage from the potential sale. While they declined to speculate on specific partnerships like Sphere, they emphasized that any decision will align with core capital allocation priorities and balance sheet strength. Management explained that every residency is unique; for example, Billy Joel performed once monthly while Harry Styles' residency involves high-frequency shows over a 10-week period. The company is actively in discussions with other artists for future residencies to reduce volatility and maintain a recurring revenue base for fiscal 2028 and beyond. The championship run contributed to a $7.4 million increase in fourth-quarter revenues through shared economics in food, beverage, and merchandise. Management expects the championship momentum to drive continued strong attendance and higher per-event spending in the upcoming fiscal year.
