Split-Off of Liberty Live Holdings Approved at Liberty Media's Special Meeting of Stockholders and Liberty Media Announces Final Terms of Reattribution
Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty Media") (NASDAQ:FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK)) and Liberty Live Holdings, Inc. ("Liberty Live Holdings") announced today that, at Liberty Media's virtual special meeting of its holders of Series A Liberty Live common stock ("LLYVA") and Series B Liberty Live common stock ("LLYVB") held on December 5, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. MT, the holders of LLYVA and LLYVB approved the previously announced split-off (the "Split-Off") of Liberty Live Holdings, which will be the owner of all of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty Live Group immediately prior to the Split-Off.
Assuming all other conditions to the Split-Off are satisfied or waived, as applicable, at 4:05 p.m., New York City time, on December 15, 2025, Liberty Media will redeem, on a one-for-one basis, each outstanding share of Liberty Live common stock in exchange for one share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live Group common stock of Liberty Live Holdings. Following the effectiveness of the Split-Off, Liberty Media expects that Liberty Live Holdings will have approximately 25.6 million shares of Series A Liberty Live Group common stock, 2.5 million shares of Series B Liberty Live Group common stock and 63.8 million shares of Series C Liberty Live Group common stock outstanding.
In connection with the Split-Off, Liberty Media has notified Nasdaq of its intention to voluntarily delist from the Nasdaq Global Select Market and deregister the shares of Series A and Series C Liberty Live common stock. Liberty Media has also notified the OTC Markets of its intention to remove from quotation the shares of Series B Liberty Live common stock. As a result, Liberty Media expects Liberty Live common stock will cease to trade or be quoted on Nasdaq or the OTC Markets, as applicable, following market close on December 15, 2025.
Liberty Media expects that Liberty Live Holdings' Series A and C Liberty Live Group common stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbols "LLYVA" and "LLYVK," respectively, and the Liberty Live Holdings' Series B Liberty Live Group common stock will begin quotation on the OTC Markets under the symbol "LLYVB," in each case, on December 16, 2025.
Further, in connection with the Split-Off, Liberty Media is reattributing certain assets and liabilities between the Formula One Group and the Liberty Live Group (the "Reattribution"). On December 3, 2025, Liberty Media's board of directors approved the final terms of the Reattribution. The Reattribution will become effective prior to the Split-Off at approximately 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on December 15, 2025.
In summary, $421.7 million of net asset value will be reattributed from the Formula One Group to the Liberty Live Group including:
- Liberty Media's interests in QuintEvents, LLC

- cash payment of approximately $171.7 million
