Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. Reports

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. (NYSE: MSGS) today reported financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and full-year ended June 30, 2025. The fiscal 2025 fourth quarter was highlighted by the New York Knicks' (the 'Knicks') participation in the NBA playoffs, which included nine home playoff games at the Madison Square Garden Arena ('The Garden') and culminated with the team's appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals. This compared to fifteen combined home playoff games for the Knicks and the New York Rangers (the 'Rangers') in the prior year quarter. In addition, fiscal 2025 fourth quarter and full-year results reflect increases in average regular season per-game revenues, including tickets, sponsorship and suites; the impact of reductions in local media rights fees as a result of amendments to the Knicks' and Rangers' local media rights agreements with MSG Networks Inc. ("MSG Networks"); the impact of the Knicks' and Rangers' rosters for the 2024-25 seasons; and the impact of certain team personnel transactions. For fiscal 2025, the Company reported revenues of $1,039.2 million, an increase of $12.1 million, or 1%, as compared to the prior year. In addition, the Company reported operating income of $14.8 million, a decrease of $131.2 million, and adjusted operating income of $38.2 million, a decrease of $134.1 million, both as compared to the prior year. (1) For the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter, the Company generated revenues of $204.0 million, a decrease of $23.3 million, or 10%, as compared to the prior year quarter. In addition, the Company reported an operating loss of $22.6 million and an adjusted operating loss of $16.8 million, as compared to operating income of $52.3 million and adjusted operating income of $56.5 million in the prior year quarter. (1) Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. Executive Chairman and CEO James L. Dolan said, 'Fiscal 2025 was highlighted by growth in per-game revenues and the Knicks' postseason run to the Eastern Conference Finals, while it also reflected our investment in our teams and the changing local media landscape. Looking ahead, we expect continued strong demand for the Knicks and Rangers and remain confident in the value of owning two professional sports franchises.' Financial Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024: Note: Does not foot due to rounding 1. See page 4 of this earnings release for the definition of adjusted operating income (loss) included in the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures. Expand Summary of Financial Results For the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter, revenues of $204.0 million decreased $23.3 million, or 10%, as compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower playoff-related revenues, lower revenues from leagues distributions and, to a lesser extent, lower food, beverage and merchandise sales and local media rights fees. During the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter, the Rangers and the Knicks played a combined one fewer regular season game and six fewer playoff games at The Garden, both as compared to the prior year quarter. Playoff-related revenues decreased $12.9 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the Rangers playing eight home playoff games in the prior year quarter as compared to not qualifying for the playoffs in the current year quarter. This decrease was partially offset by higher per-game Knicks playoff revenue and two additional Knicks home playoff games as compared to the prior year quarter. Revenues from league distributions decreased $6.8 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the absence of a non-recurring territorial fee from the NHL of approximately $7 million recognized in the prior year quarter, partially offset by higher national media rights fees. Food, beverage and merchandise sales decreased $1.8 million as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower average per-game revenue, lower online sales of merchandise and the Knicks and Rangers playing a combined one fewer regular season game at The Garden during the fiscal 2025 fourth quarter. Merchandise sales in the fiscal 2024 fourth quarter included the positive impact of new Rangers' jersey launches. Local media rights fees decreased $1.1 million as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a reduction in local media rights fees for the 2024-25 season as a result of amendments to the Knicks' and Rangers' local media rights agreements with MSG Networks. This decrease was partially offset by net lower reductions in rights fees as compared to the prior year quarter related to the number of telecasts exclusively available to MSG Networks. Direct operating expenses of $154.8 million increased $47.1 million, or 44%, as compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily driven by higher net provisions for certain team personnel transactions of $42.8 million, higher net provisions for league revenue sharing expense (net of escrow and excluding playoffs) and NBA luxury tax of $9.8 million and higher team personnel compensation of $2.9 million, all as compared to the prior year period. These increases were partially offset by lower playoff-related expenses of $5.5 million, as well as other cost decreases. Selling, general and administrative expenses of $70.9 million increased $4.5 million, or 7%, as compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was primarily driven by higher professional fees of $3.7 million, higher playoff-related expenses of $1.5 million, as well as higher other general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower sales and marketing costs of $1.3 million and lower employee compensation and related benefits of $1.2 million. Operating income decreased by $74.9 million to an operating loss of $22.6 million and adjusted operating income decreased by $73.3 million to an adjusted operating loss of $16.8 million, both as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the increase in direct operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, the decrease in revenues. Other Matters On June 27, 2025, the Knicks and Rangers amended their respective media rights agreements with MSG Networks, which included: (i) 28% and 18% reductions in annual rights fees payable to the Knicks and Rangers, respectively, effective January 1, 2025; (ii) an elimination of annual rights fee escalators; and (iii) a change to the contract expiration dates to the end of the 2028-29 seasons, subject to a right of first refusal in favor of MSG Networks. Concurrent with the amendments to the media rights agreements, MSG Networks issued penny warrants to the Company exercisable for 19.9% of the equity interests in MSG Networks. About Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. (MSG Sports) is a leading professional sports company, with a collection of assets that includes the New York Knicks (NBA) and the New York Rangers (NHL), as well as two development league teams – the Westchester Knicks (NBAGL) and the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL). MSG Sports also operates a professional sports team performance center – the MSG Training Center in Greenburgh, NY. More information is available at Non-GAAP Financial Measures We define adjusted operating income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) excluding (i) depreciation, amortization and impairments of property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, (ii) share-based compensation expense or benefit, (iii) restructuring charges or credits, (iv) gains or losses on sales or dispositions of businesses, (v) the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to business acquisitions, and (vi) gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under the Company's Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. Because it is based upon operating income (loss), adjusted operating income (loss) also excludes interest expense (including cash interest expense) and other non-operating income and expense items. 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. In addition, we believe 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 Miscellaneous 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 Company. 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 earnings release. Forward-Looking Statements This press release may contain statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results, developments and events may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including financial community and rating agency perceptions of the Company and its business, operations, financial condition and the industry in which it operates, and the factors described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the sections titled 'Risk Factors' and 'Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations' contained therein.
