Motor racing-Former supremo Ecclestone makes F1 podium debut at 94
Formula One F1 - Austrian Grand Prix - Red Bull Ring, Spielberg, Austria - June 29, 2025 Former chief executive of the Formula One Group, Bernie Ecclestone ahead of the race REUTERS/Jakub Porzycki SPIELBERG, Austria (Reuters) -Bernie Ecclestone, the former Formula One supremo who rarely stayed to watch races beyond halfway when he was in charge, made his first grand prix podium appearance at the age of 94 in Austria on Sunday. The Briton was present at the Red Bull Ring to hand out a medal on behalf of the president of the governing FIA, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, to McLaren's race winner Lando Norris. Norris hopped off the top step of the podium so that he would be standing at the same level as his diminutive compatriot. "I think it's really nice that the president gives a personal congratulations to the winning competitor," said Ecclestone, who ran the commercial side of the sport for some 40 years until being ousted in 2017. "As he could not attend the race here in Austria, he asked me to present his medal for him which I am pleased and honoured to do. "It was also great to be there as, though it might seem strange, this was the first time in almost 70 years in this sport that I've actually been on the podium." Norris won Formula One's 1,136th championship grand prix and Ecclestone attended the first at Silverstone in 1950. He once said he left races soon after the start because by then his business was done. The President's Medal was first presented to Red Bull's Max Verstappen at the season-ending 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and each one carries the race number and highlights the event's history.

We Think You Can Look Beyond Formula One Group's (NASDAQ:FWON.K) Lackluster Earnings
Shareholders appeared unconcerned with Formula One Group's (NASDAQ:FWON.K) lackluster earnings report last week. We think that the softer headline numbers might be getting counterbalanced by some positive underlying factors. We've discovered 2 warning signs about Formula One Group. View them for free. One essential aspect of assessing earnings quality is to look at how much a company is diluting shareholders. In fact, Formula One Group increased the number of shares on issue by 6.1% over the last twelve months by issuing new shares. That means its earnings are split among a greater number of shares. Per share metrics like EPS help us understand how much actual shareholders are benefitting from the company's profits, while the net income level gives us a better view of the company's absolute size. Check out Formula One Group's historical EPS growth by clicking on this link. Formula One Group was losing money three years ago. Even looking at the last year, profit was still down 95%. Sadly, earnings per share fell further, down a full 95% in that time. Therefore, the dilution is having a noteworthy influence on shareholder returns. If Formula One Group's EPS can grow over time then that drastically improves the chances of the share price moving in the same direction. But on the other hand, we'd be far less excited to learn profit (but not EPS) was improving. For the ordinary retail shareholder, EPS is a great measure to check your hypothetical "share" of the company's profit. That might leave you wondering what analysts are forecasting in terms of future profitability. Luckily, you can click here to see an interactive graph depicting future profitability, based on their estimates. Alongside that dilution, it's also important to note that Formula One Group's profit suffered from unusual items, which reduced profit by US$107m in the last twelve months. While deductions due to unusual items are disappointing in the first instance, there is a silver lining. We looked at thousands of listed companies and found that unusual items are very often one-off in nature. And, after all, that's exactly what the accounting terminology implies. In the twelve months to March 2025, Formula One Group had a big unusual items expense. As a result, we can surmise that the unusual items made its statutory profit significantly weaker than it would otherwise be. Formula One Group suffered from unusual items which depressed its profit in its last report; if that is not repeated then profit should be higher, all else being equal. But on the other hand, the company issued more shares, so without buying more shares each shareholder will end up with a smaller part of the profit. Considering all the aforementioned, we'd venture that Formula One Group's profit result is a pretty good guide to its true profitability, albeit a bit on the conservative side. So while earnings quality is important, it's equally important to consider the risks facing Formula One Group at this point in time. While conducting our analysis, we found that Formula One Group has 2 warning signs and it would be unwise to ignore these. Our examination of Formula One Group has focussed on certain factors that can make its earnings look better than they are. But there are plenty of other ways to inform your opinion of a company. Some people consider a high return on equity to be a good sign of a quality business. So you may wish to see this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks with high insider ownership. Have feedback on this article?

Liberty Media Corporation Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liberty Media Corporation ('Liberty Media' or 'Liberty') (NASDAQ: FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK) today reported first quarter 2025 results. Headlines include (1): Attributed to Formula One Group Renewed agreements for Mexico Grand Prix through 2028 and Miami Grand Prix through 2041 Secured new sponsorship deals including Barilla Pasta and PWC as Official Partners Formula 1 and all ten teams signed 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement Grand Prix Plaza in Las Vegas opened to the public on May 2 nd, providing immersive F1 attractions year-round Liberty continues to work constructively with the European Commission on regulatory process for the MotoGP acquisition Attributed to Liberty Live Group Fair value of Live Nation investment was $9.1 billion as of March 31 st '2025 is off to a strong start. Formula 1 is benefiting from exciting racing on the track and financial momentum underpinned by new commercial partnerships that took effect this year,' said Derek Chang, Liberty Media President & CEO. 'We believe Formula 1's contracted and diversified revenue streams position it well against the current macro and consumer backdrop. The business fundamentals remain strong and we're confident in our ability to deliver long-term value. At Live Nation, strong first quarter results and key forward indicators are pointing to another record year ahead with sustained demand for live music and continued growth in the global experience economy.' Discussion of Results Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to the same period in 2024. FORMULA ONE GROUP – The following table provides the financial results attributed to Formula One Group for the first quarter of 2025. In the first quarter, Formula One Group incurred $14 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense). The businesses and assets attributed to Formula One Group consist primarily of Liberty Media's subsidiaries, F1 and Quint. F1 Operating Results 'Formula 1 is six races into another incredible season and delighting fans in new and creative ways. Close racing throughout the field has created captivating on-track action, helping drive viewership growth on linear and digital platforms. Our promoter partners continue to innovate on their race weekend experiences, generating demand and sell-out crowds,' said Stefano Domenicali, Formula 1 President and CEO. 'Importantly, we agreed to the commercial terms with all F1 teams for the 2026 Concorde Agreement which is financially attractive to all parties and provides stability for our future.' The following table provides the operating results of Formula 1 ('F1'). ______________ a) Includes $61 million and $50 million of amortization related to purchase accounting for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, respectively, that is excluded from calculations for purposes of team payments. Expand Primary F1 revenue represents the majority of F1's revenue and is derived from (i) race promotion revenue, (ii) media rights fees and (iii) sponsorship fees. There were two races held in the first quarter of 2025 compared to three races held in the first quarter of 2024. The 2025 calendar is scheduled to have the same 24 events that were held in 2024, except in a different order throughout the season which will impact the year-over-year revenue and cost comparisons on a quarterly basis. Primary F1 revenue decreased in the first quarter with declines across media rights, race promotion and sponsorship driven by the calendar variance compared to the prior year. Race promotion revenue decreased due to one less race in the quarter and the different mix of races held. Lower media rights and sponsorship revenue was driven by one fewer race held in the current period resulting in a lower proportion of season-based revenue recognized, and sponsorship revenue also decreased due to the impact of the mix of races on event specific revenue. The decline in media rights revenue recognized was partially offset by contractual increases in fees and continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue. The decline in sponsorship revenue was largely offset by revenue recognized from new sponsors and growth in revenue from existing contracts. Other F1 revenue decreased in the first quarter primarily due to lower hospitality and experiences revenue driven by one less Paddock Club and the mix of events held, partially offset by higher freight income. Operating income and Adjusted OIBDA (2) decreased in the first quarter. Team payments decreased due to the pro rata recognition of payments across the race season with one less race held in the current period, partially offset by the expectation of higher team payments for the full year. Other cost of F1 revenue is largely variable in nature and is mostly derived from servicing both Primary and Other F1 revenue opportunities. These costs increased due to higher freight costs driven by the mix of races and longer routes required as well as increased commissions and partner servicing costs associated with servicing Primary F1 revenue streams for the full year, partially offset by lower hospitality and experiences, travel and FIA regulatory costs due to one fewer event. Other cost of F1 revenue in the first quarter was also impacted by higher costs associated with the Grand Prix Plaza in Las Vegas due to more activity in its events business. Selling, general and administrative expense increased primarily due to higher marketing costs associated with the 75 th season launch event at London's The O2 and increased personnel costs. Corporate and Other Operating Results Corporate and Other revenue increased in the first quarter due to Quint results. There was $6 million of rental income related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Plaza in the first quarter compared to $7 million in the prior year period. In the first quarter, Quint results were primarily driven by NBA Experiences and F1 Experiences across the two races held. Quint's revenue is seasonal around its largest events, which are generally during the second and fourth quarters. Corporate and Other Adjusted OIBDA includes the rental income related to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Plaza, Quint results and other corporate overhead for the first quarter of 2025 and the prior year period. LIBERTY LIVE GROUP – In the first quarter, $4 million of corporate level selling, general and administrative expense (including stock-based compensation expense) was allocated to Liberty Live Group. The businesses and assets attributed to Liberty Live Group consist of Liberty Media's interest in Live Nation and other minority investments. There were no repurchases of Liberty Media's common stock from February 1 through April 30, 2025. The total remaining repurchase authorization for Liberty Media as of May 1, 2025 is $1.1 billion and can be applied to repurchases of common shares of any of the Liberty Media tracking stocks.

additional information regarding our financial results, this press release includes a presentation of Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, for Formula One Group and Liberty Live Group, together with reconciliations to operating income, as determined under GAAP. Liberty Media defines Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, Concorde incentive payments and restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges. Liberty Media believes Adjusted OIBDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business' performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Because Adjusted OIBDA is used as a measure of operating performance, Liberty Media views operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted OIBDA is not meant to replace or supersede operating income or any other GAAP measure, but rather to supplement such GAAP measures in order to present investors with the same information that Liberty Media's management considers in assessing the results of operations and performance of its assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA for Liberty Media to operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025, respectively. QUARTERLY SUMMARY ______________ a) Formula One Group incurred $11 million and $9 million of costs related to corporate acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
