On September 12, 2023, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (“WWE”) and Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc.

(the “Company”).

Purpose of Historical Financial Information

The presentation of the historical information herein is for illustrative purposes only and is intended to facilitate an understanding of UFC’s and WWE’s historical operating results prior to the consummation of the business combination.

The financial information herein is presented for informational purposes and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2022, nor is it indicative of future results of the combined Company.

Reporting Segments

In conjunction with the combination of UFC and WWE, the Company evaluated its segment presentation and, beginning with the fiscal period as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company intends to report under two business segments (UFC and WWE). In addition, the Company intends to report the results for the “Corporate” group.

•

UFC

The UFC segment reflects the business operations of UFC, a premium global sports brand, media content company and the largest Pay-Per-View (PPV) event provider in the world. Revenue principally consists of media rights fees associated with the distribution of its programming content; ticket sales associated with the business’s global live events; sponsorships; and consumer product licensing agreements of UFC branded products.

•

WWE

The WWE segment reflects the business operations of WWE, an integrated media organization and the recognized global leader in sports entertainment. Revenue principally consists of media rights fees associated with the distribution of its programming content; ticket sales associated with the business’s global live events; sponsorships; and consumer product licensing agreements of WWE branded products.

•

Corporate

Corporate reflects operations not allocated to the UFC or WWE segments and primarily consists of general and administrative expenses. These expenses relate largely to corporate activities, including information technology, facilities, legal, human resources, finance, accounting, treasury, investor relations, corporate communications, community relations and compensation to TKO’s management and board of directors, which support both reportable segments. Corporate expenses also include management fees paid by the Company to Endeavor under a services agreement.

(2)

Under the legacy business segment financial reporting for WWE, revenue associated with certain large-scale international events was allocated principally to the Media segment. Within the Media segment, revenue was recorded within Other and, to a lesser extent, within Advertising and Sponsorship. The Company has reclassified this revenue to Live Events. This reclassification has no impact on total revenue for the WWE segment.
