Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “EGH”) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in January 2019. The Company was formed as a holding company for the purpose of completing an initial public offering (“IPO”) and other related transactions in order to carry on the business of Endeavor Operating Company, LLC (d.b.a. Endeavor) and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Endeavor” or “EOC”). As the sole managing member of Endeavor Manager, LLC (“Endeavor Manager”), which in turn is the sole managing member of EOC, the Company operates and controls all the business and affairs of Endeavor, and through Endeavor and its subsidiaries, conducts the Company’s business. The Company is a global entertainment, sports and content company.

Prior to the IPO, Endeavor was owned by WME Holdco, LLC (which is referred to as “Holdco” herein and is principally owned by executive employees of the Company), affiliates of Silver Lake (which are collectively referred to as “Silver Lake” herein), and other investors and executive employees of the Company.

Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, several new and current investors purchased in the aggregate 75,584,747 shares of Class A common stock at a price per share of ~~$24.00~~$24.00 (the “Private Placement”). Of these shares, 57,378,497

$1,886.6million.

Subsequent to the closing of the IPO and the Private Placement, through a series of transactions, EOC acquired the equity interests of the minority unitholders of Zuffa, which owns and operates the Ultimate Fighting Championship (the “UFC Buyout”). This resulted in EOC directly or indirectly owning ~~100%~~

100% of the equity interests of Zuffa. In consideration for the minority unitholders’ equity interests of Zuffa, (a) EGH and its subsidiaries issued to certain of such unitholders shares of Class A common stock, Endeavor Operating Company Units,

Endeavor Manager Units, shares of Class X common stock and/or shares of Class Y common stock, and (b) EGH used

$835.7 million of the net proceeds from this offering and the concurrent private placements to purchase Endeavor Operating Company Units (or equity interests of Zuffa) from certain of such holders. In addition, some of those minority unitholders sold their equity interests of EGH to the private placement investors in the concurrent private placement.

~~Remaining net proceeds~~

Proceeds, after the UFC Buyout and payment of underwriting discounts and commissions and certain offering expenses, were contributed to Endeavor Manager in exchange for Endeavor Manager Units. Endeavor Manager then in turn contributed such net proceeds to Endeavor Operating Company in exchange for Endeavor Operating Company Units.

See Note 1516 for the 2021 Incentive Award Plan, which became effective upon the IPO as well as for the equity-based compensation charges recorded ~~in the three months ended June 30, 2021~~ from the impact of the IPO.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.	~~SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES~~

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes in our prospectus dated April 28, 2021, filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (referred to herein as the “Prospectus”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. The interim consolidated financial statements as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021 and for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company concluded there was a revision required to the presentation of Zuffa Parent, LLC’s (“Zuffa”) distributions to Silver Lake and the related issuances of common stock units and the convertible promissory note by the Company in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the first three quarters of 2020. Such distributions and related issuances are described in Note ~~12.~~13. The Company originally reported these distributions and the related issuances as financing cash flows rather than correctly presenting them as

non-cash

financing activities in the supplemental cash flow disclosures. These items had no impact on the reported amount of net cash provided by financing activities for these periods. The Company has revised its statement of consolidated cash flows and the supplemental cash flow disclosures for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 to present these distributions and related issuances as non-cash activities.

~~non-cash~~

~~activities and will prospectively revise, in connection with future filings, its statement of cash flows and supplemental cash flow disclosures for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.~~

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying disclosures.

Significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, content cost amortization and impairment, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities associated with acquisitions, the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and the assessment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment, consolidation, investments, redeemable

non-controlling

interests, the fair value of equity-based compensation, income taxes and contingencies.

Management evaluates these estimates using historical experience and other factors, including the general economic environment and actions it may take in the future. The Company adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. However, these estimates may involve significant uncertainties and judgments and cannot be determined with precision. In addition, these estimates are based on management’s best judgment at a point in time and as such, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Changes in estimates resulting from weakness in the economic environment or other factors beyond the Company’s control could be material and would be reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future periods.

~~Table of Contents~~

Earnings per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per ~~Share.~~Share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income available to our Class A Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income available for common stockholders by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for that period. Diluted EPS includes the determinants of basic EPS and, in addition, reflects the dilutive effect

additional shares of Class A Common Stock issuable in exchange for vested ~~Units~~units of Endeavor Manager LLC and Endeavor Operating Company, as well as under the Company’s share based compensation plans (if dilutive), with adjustments to net income available for common stockholders for dilutive potential common shares.

The Company may be required to calculate basic EPS using the two-class method as a result of our redeemable non-controlling interests. To the extent that the redemption value increases and exceeds the then-current fair value of a redeemable non-controlling interest, net income available to common stockholders (used to calculate EPS) could be negatively impacted by that increase, subject to certain limitations. The partial or full recovery of any reductions to net income available to common stockholders (used to calculate EPS) is limited to any cumulative ~~prior-period~~prior- period reductions. There was no impact to EPS for adjustments related to our redeemable non-controlling interests.

IMPACT OF THE GLOBAL COVID-19 PANDEMIC

4.	~~IMPACT OF THE GLOBAL~~ ~~COVID-19~~ ~~PANDEMIC~~

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of

COVID-19

a pandemic. The

COVID-19

pandemic has rapidly changed market and economic conditions globally and has significantly impacted the entertainment and sports industries. The

COVID-19

pandemic resulted in various governmental restrictions, including government-mandated

stay-at-home

orders, travel restrictions and limitations on social or public gatherings, and began to have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s business and operations beginning in March 2020. In particular, this led to a lack of live ticketed events as well as the postponement or cancellation of live sporting events and other

in-person

events, including concerts, fashion shows, public appearances, and experiential marketing events. In addition, many entertainment productions, including film and television shows, were put on hiatus.

While activity has resumed in ~~certain~~all of our businesses and restrictions have been lessened or lifted, restrictions ~~impacting certain of our businesses remain in effect in locations where we are operating and~~ could in the future be ~~reduced or~~ increased ~~or removed~~ or reinstated. The Company’s events, experiences and experiential marketing businesses primarily generate their revenue from live events and ~~many~~some events remain cancelled, and where live events are able to take place, attendance

may

be at reduced levels. Overall, the Company expects athe recovery ~~in 2021 to be gradual due to~~will continue but will depend on the general uncertainty surrounding

~~COVID-19~~

~~and recently emerged variants~~

~~Table of Contents~~

COVID-19.

The full magnitude the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and future results is uncertain and will depend on the duration of the pandemic, as well as the effectiveness of mass vaccinations and the impact of variants of the virus. Accordingly, the Company’s estimates regarding the magnitude and length of time that these disruptions ~~will~~could continue to ~~impact~~have on its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition may change in the future, and such changes could be material. Additionally, changes to estimates related to the

COVID-19

disruptions could result in other impacts, including but not limited to, additional goodwill, indefinite lived intangibles, long-lived assets and equity-method investment impairment charges, and increased valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. Such changes will be recognized in the period in which they occur.

Table of Contents

Liquidity

The ongoing

COVID-19

pandemic has had a significant impact on the Company’s cash flows from operations. The Company’s primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements, debt service obligations, acquisitions and capital expenditures. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$869.8~~$1,028.7 million, including cash held at

non-wholly

owned consolidated subsidiaries where cash distributions may be subject to restriction under applicable operating agreements or debt agreements and due to such restrictions, may not be readily available to service obligations outside of those subsidiaries. These balances, which primarily consist of Endeavor China and OLE, were ~~$75~~$118.9 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

~~After considering the impact of~~

~~COVID-19,~~

~~the~~

The Company believes that existing cash, cash generated from operations and available capacity for borrowings under its credit facilities will satisfy working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and debt service requirements for at least the succeeding year.

2020 ACQUISITIONS

On Location Events, LLC

In January 2020, the Company acquired On Location Events, LLC, dba On Location Experiences (“OLE”) for total consideration of ~~$441.1~~$441.1 million consisting of cash consideration of ~~$366.4~~$366.4 million; rollover equity, representing ~~13.5%~~13.5% of the equity interest of OLE, valued at ~~$65.2~~$65.2 million and a contingent premium payment, as discussed below, valued at ~~$9.5~~$9.5 million. The rollover equity is held by 32 Equity, LLC (“32 Equity”), the strategic investment firm affiliated with the National Football League (“NFL”). OLE is party to a Commercial License Agreement (“CLA”) with NFL

Properties,

, LLC, an affiliate of the NFL, which provides OLE with the right to operate as the official hospitality partner of the NFL.

~~Table of Contents~~

As part of the acquisition, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OLE’s parent entity, Endeavor OLE Parent, LLC (“OLE Parent”), with 32 Equity. The terms of the agreement provide 32 Equity with certain call rights to acquire additional common units in OLE Parent and liquidity rights. At any time on or prior to April 1, 2022, 32 Equity has the right to purchase that amount of additional common units of OLE Parent from the Company that would result in 32 Equity having an aggregate ownership percentage interest in OLE Parent of ~~32%~~32%, at a

price

per unit equal to the original acquisition price of its rollover equity. Between April 1, 2022 and April 1, 2024, 32 Equity has an additional right to purchase that amount of additional common units of OLE Parent from the Company that would result in 32 Equity having an aggregate percentage interest in OLE Parent equal to ~~44.9%~~44.9% at a price per unit equal to the greater of the original acquisition price of its rollover equity and an amount based on a 15x EBITDA multiple of OLE Parent. The agreement also provides 32 Equity with certain rights to put its common units in OLE Parent to the Company upon a termination of the CLA or its option on or after January 2, 2025 (the “Lockup Period”). The Company also has certain call rights to require 32 Equity to sell its common units in OLE Parent to the Company upon a termination of the CLA in the event aforementioned put rights are not exercised. The put/call price is an amount equal to fair market value and the exercise of these put/call rights may give rise to an ~~obligatio~~

obligation of the Company to make a premium payment to 32 Equity in certain circumstances. At any time following the Lockup Period, 32 Equity will be entitled to a ~~$41.0~~$41.0 million premium payment from the Company if both (i) 32 Equity or the Company exercise the put/call rights described above or there is a sale or IPO of OLE Parent and (ii) certain performance metrics based on average OLE gross profit or NFL related business gross profit are achieved. The $

~~41.0~~

$41.0 million premium payment will also be payable if, prior to January 2, 2026, a sale or IPO of OLE Parent occurs or if 32 Equity exercises its put rights following a termination of the CLA due to an OLE event of default (in which case the $

~~41.0~~

$41.0 million premium payment may be subject to proration).

The Company incurred ~~$13.7~~$13.7 million of transaction related costs in connection with the acquisition. These costs were expensed as incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

The goodwill for the OLE acquisition was assigned to the Events, Experiences & Rights segment. Goodwill iswas primarily attributable to the

go-to-market

synergies ~~that are~~ expected to arise as a result of the acquisition and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill is partially deductible for tax purposes. The weighted average life of finite-lived intangible assets acquired is 10.7 years.

2020 DECONSOLIDATION

In 2011, the Company and Asian Tour Limited (“AT”) formed a venture, Asian Tour Media Pte Ltd. LTD (“ATM”), for the commercial exploitation of certain Asian Tour events.

In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated certain

~~eorganization~~

~~ransactions,~~ Reorganization Transactions, as described in further detail in Note 1. As part of such transactions, modifications of certain

pre-IPO

equity-based awards were made primarily to remove certain forfeiture and discretionary call terms, which resulted in the Company recording additional equity-based compensation expense of

$251.9

million during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

In addition, certain put right arrangements which were outstanding prior to the IPO were terminated upon the consummation of such IPO, based on the original terms of those agreements, which resulted in the Company recording a reversal of related equity-based compensation expense of

$4.0

million during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The fair value of the outstanding put rights as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021 totaled

$5.7

million, which is recorded in redeemable non-controlling interests.

2021 Incentive Award Plan

In connection with the IPO, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan became effective on April 28, 2021. The Company

initially

reserved a total

of 21,700,000

shares of Class A common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2021 Plan. All

current

awards granted under the 2021 Plan are intended to be treated as stock options or restricted stock units (RSUs). The terms of each award, including vesting and forfeiture, are fixed by the administrator of the 2021 Plan. Key grant terms include one or more of the following: (a) time-based vesting over a two to five year period or full vesting at grant; (b) market-based vesting conditions at graduated levels upon the Company’s attainment of certain market price per share ~~thresholds~~thresholds; and (c) expiration dates (if applicable). Granted awards may include time-based vesting conditions only, market-based vesting conditions only, or both.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted under the Company’s 2021 Plan during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 was ~~$9.54.~~

$9.56.

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Management is required to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. Expected volatility is based on comparable publicly traded companies’ stock movements. The expected life represents the period of time that the respective awards are expected to be outstanding. The ~~risk-free~~risk- free interest rate is based on the U.S treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. All stock options exercised will be settled in Class A common stock. The key assumptions used for stock options granted during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 are as follows:


	Stock Options
Risk-free i ~~nterest~~ r ~~ate~~ Interest Rate		1.02	%

For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of ~~$111.4~~

$31.2million

and $142.6 million, respectively, related to RSUs and stock options granted under the 2021 Plan, which is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated ~~statement~~

statements of operations.

The total grant-date fair value of RSUs and stock options which vested during the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 was ~~$70.0~~$71.3 million. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the aggregate intrinsic value of vested RSUs and stock options and aggregate intrinsic value of total outstanding RSUs and stock options was ~~$37.2~~$39.1 million and ~~$254.3~~$268.5 million, respectively.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation related to stock options and restricted stock units was

$~~194.9~~166.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately ~~2.05~~1.93 years.

CEO and Executive Chairman Market-Based Incentive Awards

In March 2019, the Company issued equity-based compensation awards in Endeavor and in Zuffa to the Company’s CEO (each a “Future Incentive Award”). The Future Incentive Awards were each based on achievement of various equity value thresholds of Endeavor and of Zuffa. In May 2021, the Company’s CEO received a RSU award covering

520,834

shares of the Company’s Class A common stock following the achievement of one agreed upon increase in equity value of Zuffa under his Zuffa Incentive Future

Award. One-third

of such RSUs were vested upon grant and the remaining will vest in two equal installments on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant. The Endeavor and Zuffa Future Incentive Awards were cancelled in connection with the IPO and were replaced with an award of performance-vesting RSUs.

Each of the Company’s

CEO and

Executive Chairman received an award of performance-vesting RSUs pursuant to which

they are eligible to receive a number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock with a specified target value

each time the price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock (calculated based on volume weighted average price thereof)

exceeds an applicable threshold price

Table of Contents

above the public offering price of ~~$24.00.~~

$24.00. One-third

of any shares of the Company’s Class A common stock received upon achievement of any applicable threshold price will be vested upon grant and the remainder of such shares will vest in two equal installments on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant. The first price threshold was achieved for the Company’s CEO on June 10, 2021. These performance-vesting RSUs will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.

The performance-vesting RSUs awarded to the CEO and Executive Chairman of the Company (each a “Market-Based Incentive Award”) are accounted for under ASC 718 as equity-classified awards due to the fixed number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock each of the CEO and the Executive Chairman will be eligible for upon the achievement of each respective threshold. Compensation cost for ~~performance-based~~performance- based awards with a market condition is recognized regardless of the number of units that vest based on the market condition and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated service period. Compensation expense is not reversed even if the market condition is not satisfied. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value and the derived service periods of these Market-Based Incentive ~~Awards~~

Awards.

For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, total equity-based compensation expense for these Market-Based Incentive Awards was $

~~23.5~~

24.1million and $47.6 million, respectively, and the Company reclassified the $27.0 million of long term liabilities from the Future Incentive Awards to additional paid in capital. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, total unrecognized equity-based compensation related to these CEO and Executive Chairman Market-Based Incentive Awards was

$~~285.7~~

261.6million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately2.54 years.

17. INCOME TAXES

~~2.57 years.~~

~~INCOME TAXES~~

EGH was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in January 2019. It was formed as a holding company for the purpose of completing an IPO and other related transactions. As the sole managing member of Endeavor Manager, which is the sole managing member of EOC, EGH operates and controls all the business and affairs of EOC, and through EOC and its subsidiaries, conducts the Company’s business. EGH is subject to corporate income tax on its share of taxable income or loss of EOC derived through Endeavor Manager. EOC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is therefore not subject to U.S. corporate income tax. However, certain of EOC’s subsidiaries are subject to U.S. or foreign corporate income tax.

~~Table of Contents~~

In accordance with ASC Topic 740, each interim period is considered integral to the annual period and tax expense is generally determined using an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate (“AETR”). The Company would record income tax expense each quarter using the estimated AETR to provide for income taxes on a current

year-to-date

basis, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are noted in the relevant period. In accordance with the authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes in interim periods, the Company computed its income tax provision for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 based upon the AETR. Utilizing the AETR in 2020 would not have provided a reliable estimate of the tax provision based on the forecasted impact of

COVID-19

on the Company’s operations and overall economy. Therefore, in accordance with the authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes in interim periods, EOC computed its income tax provision for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 based upon the actual effective tax rate for that period.

The ~~provision for~~

(benefit ~~from)~~

from income taxes for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 and 2020 is ~~$60.9~~$7.7 million and ~~$(4.0)~~$0.9 million, respectively, based on pretax

~~losses~~

income of ~~$412.0~~$73.8 million and ~~$301.8~~$11.7 million, respectively. The effective tax rate is

(

~~14.8%~~

10.5)

% and ~~1.3%~~(8.0)% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The provision for income taxes for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2021 and~~2021and 2020 is ~~$66.0~~$58.3 million and ~~$44.6~~$43.6 million, respectively, based on pretax losses of ~~$389.1~~$315.3 million and ~~$292.7~~$281.0 million, respectively.

The effective tax rate

is ~~(17.0%~~(18.5)% and ~~(15.2%~~(15.5)% for

the

~~six~~ nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2021 and~~2021and 2020, respectively. The tax expense for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021

differs

from the same periods in 2020

primarily

due to the impact of additional pre-tax income for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 differs from the same periods in 2020 primarily due to the impact of additional stock compensation expense on the

AETR, deferred tax liabilities associated with indefinite lived intangibles recorded as a result of the IPO, and a change in the tax rate in the United Kingdom. Any tax balances reflected on the ~~June~~September 30, 2021 balance sheet would be adjusted accordingly to reflect the actual financial results for the year ending December 31, 2021.

The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to partnership income not subject to income tax, state and local income taxes, withholding taxes in foreign jurisdictions that are not based on net income and income subject to tax in foreign jurisdictions which differ from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the relative amount of income earned in those jurisdictions.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of ~~$36.3~~$44.1 million and ~~$34.4~~$34.4 million, respectively, for which we are unable to make a reasonable and reliable estimate of the period in which these liabilities will be settled with the respective tax authorities.

The Company records valuation allowances against its net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all, or a portion, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered based on all available positive and negative evidence, including historical results, reversals of deferred tax liabilities, estimates of future taxable income, tax planning strategies and results of operations. Based on this analysis, the Company has concluded that its net deferred tax assets at EGH, exclusive of deferred tax liabilities associated with indefinite lived intangibles, will not be realized and as a result, has recorded a full valuation allowance as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

Tax Receivable Agreements

In connection with the IPO and related transactions, the Company entered into tax receivable agreements (“TRAs”) with certain persons that held direct or indirect interests in EOC and Zuffa prior to the IPO (“TRA Holders”). The TRAs generally provide for the

Table of Contents

payment by EGH of ~~85%~~85% of the amount of any tax benefits that EGH actually realizes, or in some cases is deemed to realize, as a result of (i) increases in EGH’s share of the tax basis in the net assets of EOC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of LLC Units, (ii) increases in tax basis attributable to payments made under the TRAs, (iii) deductions attributable to imputed interest pursuant to the TRAs and (iv) other tax attributes allocated to EGH post-IPO and related transactions that were allocable to the TRA Holders prior to the IPO and related transactions.

The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets subject to the TRA. Certain other tax attributes subject to the TRA do not result in deferred tax assets. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the Company has recognized a TRA liability on a portion of such attributes of approximately

$32 million, after concluding that such TRA payments would be probable based on estimates of future taxable income over the terms of the TRAs. The amounts payable under the TRAs will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income of EGH in the future. If the valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets applicable to the tax attributes referenced above is released in a future period, or other tax attributes subject to the TRA are determined to be payable, additional TRA liabilities may be considered probable at that time and recorded within our statement of operations.

~~COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES~~

Claims and Litigation

The Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and governmental investigations arising in the normal course of business. The types of allegations that arise in connection with such legal proceedings vary in nature, but can include contract, employment, tax and intellectual property matters. The Company evaluates all cases and records liabilities for losses from legal proceedings when the Company determines that it is probable that the outcome will be unfavorable and the amount, or potential range, of loss can be reasonably estimated. While any outcome related to litigation or such governmental proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the outcome of these matters, except as otherwise may be discussed below, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

An employee of the Company is one of several individuals and entities named in a complaint by India’s Director of Enforcement (“DE”), initially filed in January 2015, alleging violations of the Foreign Exchange Management Act (“FEMA”). The complaint alleges that the employee participated as an advisor in a series of transactions in 2009 that were completed by and on behalf of a client, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (the “BCCI”), and that contravened two provisions of FEMA. The subject transactions were pursued under the direction and control of one of the BCCI’s board members. The Company is not alleged to have possessed any funds improperly or to have made or received any of the payments that are alleged to have violated FEMA. The Company is cooperating with the DE’s investigation which, at present, is in its early stages.

In July 2017, the Italian Competition Authority (“ICA”) issued a decision opening an investigation into alleged breaches of competition law in Italy, involving inter alia IMG, and relating to bidding for certain media rights of the Serie A and Serie B football leagues. In April 2018, the European Commission conducted

on-site

inspections at a number of companies that are involved with sports media rights, including the Company. The inspections were part of an ongoing investigation into the sector and into potential violations of certain antitrust laws that may have taken place within it. The Company investigated these ICA matters, as well as other regulatory compliance matters. In May 2019, the ICA completed its investigation and fined the Company approximately EUR 0.3 million. As part of its decision, the ICA acknowledged the Company’s cooperation and ongoing compliance efforts since the investigation commenced. In July 2019, three football clubs and in June 2020, the Serie A football league (Lega Nazionale Professionisti Serie A or “Lega Nazionale”, and together with the three clubs, the “Plaintiffs”) each filed separate claims against IMG and certain other unrelated parties in the Court of Milan, Italy, alleging that IMG engaged in anti-competitive practices with regard to bidding for certain media rights of the Serie A and Serie B football leagues. The Plaintiffs seek damages from all defendants in amounts ~~totalling~~totaling EUR 554.6 million in the aggregate relating to the three football clubs and EUR 1,592.2 million relating to Lega Nazionale, along with attorneys’ fees and costs (the “Damages Claims”). Since December 2020, four additional football clubs have each filed requests to intervene in the Lega Nazionale proceedings and individually seek to claim amounts in the aggregate ~~totalling~~totaling EUR 251.5 million. Ten other clubs also filed requests to intervene in support of Lega Nazionale’s claim or alternatively to individually claim in the amount of EUR 92.1 million, in the case of one club, and unspecified amounts (to be quantified as a percentage of the total amount sought by Lega Nazionale) in the other nine

~~Table of Contents~~

cases. Collectively, the interventions of these 14 clubs are the “Interventions”. The Company intends to defend against the Damages Claims, Interventions and any related claims, and management believes that the Company has meritorious defenses to these claims, including the absence of standing of the clubs, and the absence of actual damage. The Company may also be subject to regulatory and other claims and actions with respect to these ICA and other regulatory matters. Any judgment entered against the Company or settlement entered into, including with respect to claims or actions brought by other parties, could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Zuffa has 5

related class-action lawsuits filed against it in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the “District Court”) between December 2014 and March 2015 by a total of 11

former UFC fighters. The complaints in the five lawsuits are substantially identical. Each alleges that Zuffa violated Section 2 of the Sherman Act by monopolizing the alleged market for the promotion

Table of Contents

of elite professional MMA bouts and monopolizing the alleged market for elite professional MMA Fighters’ services. Plaintiffs claim that Zuffa’s alleged conduct injured them by artificially depressing the compensation they received for their services and their intellectual property rights, and they seek treble damages under the antitrust laws, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs, and injunctive relief. On December 14, 2020, the District Court orally indicated its intention to grant Plaintiffs’ motion to certify the Bout Class (comprised of fighters who participated in bouts from December 16, 2010 to ~~June~~September 30, 2017) and to deny Plaintiffs’ motion to certify the Identity Class (a purported class ba

edbased upon the alleged expropriation and exploitation of fighter identities). The Company is awaiting the official written order from the judge and assuming he rules as previously indicated, then the Company will seek an appeal of this decision. On June 23, 2021, plaintiffs’ lawyers filed a new case against Zuffa and EGH

alleging substantially similar claims,

, but

providing

for

class period from July 1, 2017 to present. Management believes that the Company has meritorious defenses against the allegations and intends to defend itself vigorously.

In February 2021, the Company signed ~~a new franchise agreement and side letter (the “Franchise Agreements”)~~the Franchise Agreements directly with the ~~Writer’s Guild of America East and the Writer’s Guild of America West (collectively, the “WGA”).~~WGA. These Franchise Agreements include terms that, among other things, prohibit the Company from (a) negotiating packaging deals after June 30, 2022 and (b) having more than a ~~20%~~

20% non-controlling

ownership or other financial interest in, or being owned or affiliated with any individual or entity that has more than a 20%

non-controlling

ownership or other financial interest in, any entity or individual engaged in the production or distribution of works written by WGA members under a WGA collective bargaining agreement. The Franchise Agreements provide for a transition period for the Company to come into compliance with certain of its provisions. During the term of the Franchise Agreements, until the Company is in compliance, the Franchise Agreements require that the Company place into escrow (i) an amount equal to Endeavor Content’s

after-tax

gross profits from the production of works written by WGA members under a WGA collective bargaining agreement and (ii) an amount equal to the Company’s after tax writer commissions and package fees received in connection with such Endeavor Content productions.

As a result, in ~~August 2021,~~the third quarter, the Company ~~has begun~~began marketing the restricted Endeavor Content business for ~~sale.~~

sale and such assets and liabilities are reflected as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

Guarantees and Commitments

The Company routinely enters into purchase or guarantee arrangements for event, media or other representation rights as well as for advancements for content production or overhead costs with various organizations. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company entered into certain new arrangements increasing its purchase/guarantee agreements

by ~~$1.3~~

$1.3billion, which will be due in 2021 through 2028.

In September 2021, the Company signed an agreement to acquire the OpenBet business of Scientific Games Corporation ("OpenBet"). OpenBet consists of companies that provide products and services to sports betting operators for the purposes of sports wagering. Based on the agreement, the Company will pay Scientific Games Corporation consideration of $1.0 billion in cash and will issue 7,605,199 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, a value of $200.0 million based on the volume-weighted average trading price of the Class A common stock for the twenty trading days ended on September 24, 2021. The closing of this transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first half of 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our prospectus dated April 28, 2021, filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Prospectus”). The historical financial data discussed below reflects our historical results of operations and financial position and relate to periods prior to the reorganization transactions. As a result, the following discussion does not reflect the significant impact that such events will have on us.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. is a premium intellectual property, content, events, and experiences company. We own and operate premium sports properties, including the UFC, produce and distribute sports and entertainment content, own and manage exclusive live events and experiences, and represent top sports and entertainment talent, as well as blue chip corporate clients. Founded as a client representation business, we expanded organically and through strategic mergers and acquisitions, investing in new capabilities, including sports operations and advisory, events and experiences management, media production and distribution, brand licensing, and experiential marketing. The addition of these new capabilities and insights transformed our business into an integrated global platform anchored by owned and managed premium intellectual property.

Segments

We operate our business in three segments: (i) Owned Sports Properties; (ii) Events, Experiences & Rights; and (iii) Representation.

Owned Sports Properties

Our Owned Sports Properties segment is comprised of a unique portfolio of scarce sports properties, including UFC, PBR and Euroleague, that generate significant growth through innovative rights deals and exclusive live events.

Through the UFC, the world’s premier professional MMA organization, we produce more than 40 live events annually which are broadcast in over 160 countries and territories to approximately one billion TV households. UFC was founded in 1993 and has grown in popularity after hosting more than 500 events and reaching a global audience through an increasing array of broadcast license agreements and our owned FIGHT PASS streaming platform. The value of our content is demonstrated by our licensing arrangements with ESPN and other international broadcasters and our increasing consumer engagement is reflected by the growth of FIGHT PASS subscribers and overall follower growth and engagement across our social channels.

PBR is the world’s premier bull riding circuit with more than 500 bull riders from the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, and Mexico, competing in more than 200 bull riding events each year

pre-pandemic.

PBR is one of America’s fastest growing sports with annual attendance for its premier series quadrupling since its inception in 1995.

We have an up

to 20-year partnership

with Euroleague, which could extend into 2036, to manage and capitalize on all of the commercial business of the league, including media rights, sponsorship, content production, licensing, digital distribution, events staging, and hospitality, for which we receive a management fee. Euroleague is one of the most popular indoor sports leagues in the world, averaging attendance of over 8,500 per game in the 2019-2020 season.

Events, Experiences & Rights

In our Events, Experiences & Rights segment, we own, operate, and provide services to a diverse portfolio of over 800 live events annually, including sporting events covering 20 sports across 25 countries, international fashion weeks, art fairs and music, culinary and lifestyle festivals. We own and operate many of these events, including the Miami Open, HSBC Champions, Frieze Art Fair, New York Fashion Week, and Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, and we have a strategic partnership with

the PGA-sanctioned Asian

Tour. We also operate other events on behalf of third parties, including the AIG Women’s British Open and Fortnite World Cup. Through On Location, we provide premium experiences, historically providing more than 900 per year for sporting and music events such as the Super Bowl, Ryder Cup, NCAA Final Four and Coachella.

~~Table of Contents~~

We are one of the largest independent global distributors of sports video programming and data. We sell media rights globally on behalf of more than 150 clients such as the International Olympic Committee (“IOC”), the NFL, and National Hockey League (“NHL”), as well as for our owned assets and channels. We also provide league advisory services given the array of experience we have to offer. Through IMG ARENA, we work with more than 470 leading sportsbook brands worldwide to deliver live streaming video and data feeds for more than 45,000 sports events annually, as well as

for on-demand virtual

sports products including our own UFC Event Centre. We also leverage the technology derived from IMG ARENA to provide streaming video solutions to our clients and our owned assets via Endeavor Streaming.

Additionally, we own and operate IMG Academy, a leading academic and sports training institution located in ~~Florida.~~

Florida, as well as Next College Student Athlete ("NCSA"), which provides recruiting and admissions services to high school student athletes and college athletic departments and admissions officers.

In September 2021, we signed an agreement to acquire the OpenBet business of Scientific Games Corporation ("OpenBet"). OpenBet consists of companies that provide products and services to sports betting operators for the purposes of sports wagering. Based on the agreement, we will pay consideration to Scientific Games Corporation cash of $1.0 billion, expected to be funded with cash on hand and additional borrowings under our

Table of Contents

Senior Credit Facilities, and 7,605,199 newly-issued shares of our Class A common stock with a value of $200 million based on the volume-weighted average trading price of the Class A common stock for the twenty trading days ended on September 24, 2021. The closing of this transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first half of 2022. Upon closing of the acquisition, we expect to create a new reportable segment to include IMG ARENA and the OpenBet business.

Representation

Our Representation segment provides services to more than 7,000 talent and corporate clients and includes our content division, Endeavor Content. Our Representation business deploys a subset of our integrated capabilities on behalf of our clients.

Through our client representation and management businesses, including the WME talent agency and IMG Models, we represent a diverse group of talent across entertainment, sports, and fashion, including actors, directors, writers, athletes, models, musicians, and other artists, in a variety of mediums, such as film, television, books, and live events. Through our 160over90 business, we provide brand strategy, marketing, advertising, public relations, analytics, digital, activation, and experiential services to many of the world’s largest brands. Through IMG Licensing, we provide IP licensing services to a large portfolio of entertainment, sports, and consumer product brands, including representing these clients in the licensing of their logos, trade names and trademarks. Endeavor Content provides a premium alternative to traditional content studios, offering a range of services including content development, production, financing, sales, and advisory services for creators. In February 2021, the Company signed a new franchise agreement and side letter (the “Franchise Agreements”) directly with the Writer’s Guild of America East and the Writer’s Guild of America West (collectively, the “WGA”). These Franchise Agreements include terms that, among other things, prohibit the Company from (a) negotiating packaging deals after June 30, 2022 and (b) having more than a 20% non-controlling ownership or other financial interest in, or being owned or affiliated with any individual or entity that has more than a 20% non-controlling ownership or other financial interest in, any entity or individual engaged in the production or distribution of works written by WGA members under a WGA collective bargaining agreement. As a result, in ~~August 2021,~~the third quarter, the Company ~~has begun~~began marketing the restricted Endeavor Content business for ~~sale.~~

sale and such assets and liabilities are reflected as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

EGH is subject to corporate income tax on its share of taxable income or loss of EOC, derived from Endeavor Manager. EOC is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is therefore not subject to U.S. corporate income tax. However, certain of EOC’s subsidiaries are subject to U.S. or foreign corporate income tax.

~~Impact of~~

the COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak

of COVID-19 a

pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic

has rapidly changed market and economic conditions globally, including significantly impacting the entertainment and sports industries as well as our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

The COVID-19 pandemic

resulted in various governmental restrictions and began to have a significant adverse impact on our business and operations beginning in March 2020, including the lack of ticketed PBR and UFC events and the early cancellation of the 2019-2020 Euroleague season adversely impacting our Owned Sports Properties segment; the postponement or cancellation of live sporting events and

other in-person events

adversely impacting our Events, Experiences & Rights segment; and stoppages of entertainment productions, including film, television shows

Table of Contents

and music events, as well as reduced corporate spending on marketing, experiential and activation, adversely impacting our Representation segment. Furthermore, following the merger of our IMG College business with Learfield, the operating results of the merged business had been weaker than anticipated driven by lower than expected sales and have been further impacted

in 2020 by COVID-19 as

a result of the delay, cancellation of or shortened college football season and the prohibition of fans by many teams, which resulted in impairment charges at Learfield IMG College in 2020 adversely impacting our equity earnings. In 2020, we also recognized goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges primarily at our Events, Experiences & Rights segment, driven by lower projections as a result of the impact

of COVID-19 and

restructuring in certain of our businesses. In the future, any further impact to our business as a result

of COVID-19 could

result in additional impairments of goodwill, intangibles, long-term investments and long-lived assets.

While activity has resumed in ~~certain~~all of our businesses and restrictions have been lessened or lifted, restrictions ~~impacting certain of our businesses remain in effect in locations where we are operating and~~ could in the future be ~~reduced or~~ increased ~~or removed~~ or reinstated. As a result of this and numerous other uncertainties ~~including the duration of~~surrounding the pandemic ~~the effectiveness of mass vaccinations~~ and the ~~impact of variants of the virus,~~risk that additional postponements or cancellations of live sporting events and other

in-person

events, and changes in consumer preferences towards our business and the industries in which we operate could occur, we are unable to accurately predict the full impact of

COVID-19

~~including recently emerged variants,~~ on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows, but acknowledge that its impact on our business and results of operations may be material. We expect that recovery will continue ~~to be gradual~~ and that the wider impact on revenue and cash flows will vary, but will generally depend on the factors listed above and the general uncertainty surrounding

COVID-19.

~~After considering the impact of~~

~~COVID-19,~~

~~including recently emerged variants, the~~ The Company believes that existing cash, cash generated from operations and available capacity for borrowings under its credit facilities will satisfy working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and debt service requirements for at least the succeeding year.

UFC Buyout

Substantially simultaneous with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the UFC Buyout whereby we acquired equity interests in UFC Parent (including warrants of UFC Parent) from the Other UFC Holders (or their affiliates) resulting in Endeavor Operating Company directly or indirectly owning 100% of the equity interests of UFC Parent.

As a result of the UFC Buyout, we no longer attribute income (loss) to

non-controlling

interests related to UFC in our consolidated statement of operations and recognized a reduction in nonredeemable

non-controlling

interests on our consolidated balance sheet. Furthermore, restrictions on dividends under the UFC LLC Agreement are no longer in place after the UFC Buyout, although restrictions from the UFC Credit Facilities remain in place.

~~Table of Contents~~

Reorganization

Prior to the closing of the IPO on May 3, 2021, we undertook reorganization transactions, following which Endeavor Group Holdings became a holding company, and its principal asset is an equity interest in a newly formed subsidiary of Endeavor Group Holdings, Endeavor Manager, of which Endeavor Group Holdings serves as the managing member. Endeavor Manager is in turn the managing member of Endeavor Operating Company. Endeavor Group Holdings manages and operates the business and controls the strategic decisions and

day-to-day

operations of Endeavor Manager as its sole managing member, and Endeavor Operating Company as its indirect sole managing member, and also has a substantial financial interest in Endeavor Manager and Endeavor Operating Company. Accordingly, Endeavor Group Holdings consolidates the results of operations of Endeavor Manager and Endeavor Operating Company, and a portion of Endeavor Group Holding’s net income (loss) is allocated to

non-controlling

interests to reflect the entitlements of certain former members of Endeavor Operating Company who retain ownership interests in Endeavor Manager and Endeavor Operating Company.

After consummation of the IPO and the reorganization transactions, we became subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to our allocable share of any taxable income of Endeavor Manager and Endeavor Operating Company, and we are taxed at the prevailing corporate tax rates. Endeavor Operating Company makes distributions to us in an amount sufficient to allow us to pay our tax obligations and operating expenses, including distributions to fund any ordinary course payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

In addition, we have begun implementing and will continue to implement additional procedures and processes for the purpose of addressing the standards and requirements applicable to public companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses related to these steps and, among other things, additional directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, reporting requirements of the SEC, transfer agent fees, hiring additional accounting, legal and administrative personnel, increased auditing and legal fees and similar expenses. We have recognized and will continue to recognize certain

non-recurring

costs as part of our transition to a publicly traded company, consisting of professional fees and other expenses.

2020 as the Company rebounds from the impact of COVID-19.



Owned Sports Propertiesdecreased by $10.6 million, or 3.5%. The decrease was due to a decrease in UFC revenue attributable to more events being held in 2020 caused by the shifting of events from the second quarter due to COVID-19 and a $25 million contract termination fee recognized in the third quarter of 2020, which did not recur in 2021, partially offset by an increase in ticket sales due to the elimination of fan attendance restrictions in 2021 and new sponsorship deals. This decrease in UFC revenue was partially offset by an increase in revenue at PBR due to additional events held in the current period, including ticket sales as a result of eliminating fan attendance restrictions in 2021.



Events, Experiences & Rights increased by ~~$106.6~~$62.1 million, or ~~70.0%~~16.2%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of $113 million of events revenue and $22 million of production revenue attributable to the return of live events in 2021 and $26 million attributable to the acquisition of NCSA, partially offset by a decrease of $100 million in media rights fees primarily due to the return to a normal schedule of European soccer matches in the quarter and the expiration of two European soccer contracts in the second quarter of 2021.



Representation increased by $481.1 million, or 262.1%. The increase was primarily driven by a $341 million increase in content deliveries at Endeavor Content and a $124 million increase in client commissions, licensing and corporate spending on marketing and experiential activations as the prior year was significantly impacted by COVID-19.

Revenue increased $1,054.4 million, or 41.9%, to $3,572.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as the Company rebounds from the impact of COVID-19.



Owned Sports Properties increased by $147.3 million, or 21.6%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in media rights fees, new sponsorship deals and event related revenue due to the increase in the number of events held at UFC, ~~and PBR.~~partially offset by a contract termination fee recognized in the prior year.



Events, Experiences

& Rights

increased by ~~$408.8~~$341.7 million, or 341.2%. The increase was primarily attributable to the return of live events in 2021 and an increase in media rights fees primarily due to the return to a full schedule of European soccer matches in 2021 and the impact of COVID-19 on the 2019/2020 season, which resulted in matches for most leagues rescheduled to the second half of 2020.

~~Representation~~

increased by $135.4 million, or 70.2%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in content deliveries at Endeavor Content and the gradual recovery in client commissions and corporate spending on marketing and experiential activations.

~~increased by $157.9 million, or 41.1%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in media rights fees and event related revenue due to the increase in the number of events held at UFC.~~

~~Events, Experiences~~

~~& Rights~~

~~increased by $279.7 million, or 35.5%~~29.1%. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in media rights fees of $271 million primarily driven by the impact of COVID-19 on both the 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 European soccer seasons, ~~in Europe,~~ which resulted in reduced matches for most leagues in the first half of 2020, and an increased schedule of matches in the ~~second half of 2020 and~~ first quarter of 2021 and $86 million of sports production revenue related to the return of live events in 2021. These increases were partially offset by a net decrease of $16 million in our event and performance revenue due to the ~~cancellations, postponements and capacity restrictions~~cancellation or restricted attendance at certain of ~~live sport events and other~~

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We classify our business into three reporting segments: Owned Sports Properties; Events, Experiences & Rights; and Representation. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance of our segments based on segment Revenue and segment Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes segment Adjusted EBITDA is indicative of operational performance and ongoing profitability and is used to evaluate the operating performance of our segments and for planning and forecasting purposes, including the allocation of resources and capital.

Segment operating results reflect earnings before corporate and unallocated shared expenses. Segment operating results include allocations of certain costs, including facilities, technology, and other shared services costs, which are allocated based on metrics designed to correlate with consumption. These allocations are agreed-upon amounts between the businesses and may differ from amounts that would be negotiated in arm’s length transactions.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL

MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA is

a non-GAAP financial

measure and is defined as net income (loss), excluding income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, merger, acquisition

and earn-out costs,

certain legal costs, restructuring, severance and impairment charges,

certain non-cash fair

value adjustments, certain equity

earnings, COVID-19 related

expenses, and certain other items when applicable. Adjusted EBITDA margin is

a non-GAAP financial

measure defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it eliminates the significant level

of non-cash depreciation

and amortization expense that results from our capital investments and intangible assets recognized in business combinations, and improves comparability by eliminating the significant level of interest expense associated with our debt facilities, as well as income taxes, which may not be comparable with other companies based on our tax structure.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are used as the primary bases to evaluate our consolidated operating performance.

Adjusted Net Income is

a non-GAAP financial

measure and is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Endeavor Group Holdings adjusted to exclude our share (excluding those relating

to certain non-controlling interests)

of the adjustments used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, other than income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation, on an after tax basis, the release of tax valuation allowances and other tax items.

Adjusted Net Income adjusts income or loss attributable to the Company for items that are not considered to be reflective of our operating performance. Management believes that

such non-GAAP information

is useful to investors and analysts as it provides a better understanding of the performance of our operations for the periods presented and, accordingly, facilitates the development of future projections and earnings growth prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted Net Income have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:



they do not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments;



Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;



although depreciation and amortization are

non-cash

charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced or require improvements in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted Net Income do not reflect any cash requirement for such replacements or improvements; and



they are not adjusted for all

non-cash

income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows.

We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income along with other comparative tools, together with GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income should not be considered substitutes for the reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net (loss) income as indicators of our financial performance, as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. Although we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income as financial measures to assess the performance of our business, such use is limited because it does not include certain material costs necessary to operate our business. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Net Income should not be construed as indications that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

These non-GAAP financial

measures, as determined and presented by us, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Set forth below are reconciliations of our most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to

these non-GAAP financial

measures on a consolidated basis.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historical liquidity and capital resources

~~Sources~~ sources and uses of cash

Cash flows from operations have historically funded

our day-to-day operations,

revenue-generating activities, and routine capital expenditures, as well as serviced our long-term debt. Our other principal use of cash has been the acquisition of businesses, which have been funded primarily through equity contributions from

our pre-IPO institutional

investors and the issuance of long-term debt.

Debt facilities

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we had an aggregate of ~~$5.1~~$5.0 billion outstanding indebtedness under our first lien credit agreement entered into by certain of our subsidiaries in May 2014 in connection with the acquisition of IMG (as amended, restated, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Facilities”) and UFC Holdings, LLC’s term loan and revolving credit facilities (the “UFC Credit Facilities” and, collectively with the Credit Facilities, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021 we had available borrowing capacity of approximately $370 million under the Senior Credit Facilities.

Credit Facilities

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we have borrowed an aggregate of $2.8 billion of term loans under the Credit Facilities. The loans bear interest at a variable interest rate equal to either, at our option, adjusted LIBOR or the Alternate Base Rate (the “ABR”) plus, in each case, an applicable margin. LIBOR term loans accrue interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus 2.75%, with a LIBOR floor of 0.00%. ABR term loans accrue interest at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus ~~0.50%~~0.5%, (b) the prime rate, (c) adjusted LIBOR for

a one-month interest

period plus 1.00% and (d) 1.00%, plus (ii) 1.75%. The term loans under the Credit Facilities include 1% principal amortization payable in equal quarterly installments and mature on May 18, 2025.

In May 2020, we issued $260.0 million as a separate tranche of term loans, which accrued interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus 8.50%, with a LIBOR floor of ~~1.00%~~1%. On June 29, 2021, we repaid the outstanding principal of $256.7 million as well as associated fees and expenses incurred due to early redemption of $28.6 million.

On May 20, 2019, we executed $1.5 billion in interest rate hedges to swap a portion of our debt from floating interest expense to fixed. The LIBOR portion of the facility has been fixed at a coupon of 2.12% for five years commencing from June 2019 until June 2024. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, approximately 54% of our Term Loans is hedged. See Note ~~11,~~12, “Debt”, to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further detail on the Credit Facilities.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we have the option to borrow incremental term loans in an aggregate amount equal to at least $550.0 million, subject to market demand, and may be able to borrow additional funds depending on our First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined under the Credit Facilities). The credit agreement governing our Credit Facilities includes certain mandatory prepayment provisions relating to, among other things, the incurrence of additional debt.

The Credit Facilities also include a revolving credit facility which has $200.0 million of capacity with letter of credit and swingline

loan sub-limits of

up to $75.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively. Revolving credit facility borrowings under the Credit Facilities bear interest

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio, with a LIBOR floor of 0.00%. ABR revolving loans accrue interest at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate, (c) adjusted LIBOR for

a one-month interest

period plus 1.00% and (d) 1.00%,

plus (ii) 1.00-1.50%, depending

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio. We pay Letter of Credit fees of 0.125% and a commitment fee

of 0.25-0.50%, based

on our First Lien Leverage Ratio. On June 29, 2021, we repaid $163.1 million under the revolving credit facility. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit of ~~$25.3~~$26.0 million. The revolving facility matures on May 18, ~~2023.~~

2024.

The revolving facility under the Credit Facilities is subject to a financial covenant if greater than 35% of the borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility is utilized (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit

and non-cash collateralized

letters of credit of up to $50.0 million) at the end of each quarter. This covenant was not applicable on ~~June~~September 30, 2021, as we had no borrowing outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

In April 2021, we entered into an amendment to the credit agreement governing the Credit Facilities to, among other things, waive the financial covenant for the test periods ending June 30, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021. ~~In addition, following the successful completion of our initial public offering in April 2021, the maturity date of the revolving facility was extended to May 18, 2024.~~

The Credit Facilities contain certain restrictive covenants around indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, guarantees, investments, asset sales, and transactions with affiliates.

Table of Contents

The borrower’s obligations under the Credit Facilities are guaranteed by certain of our indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. All obligations under the Credit Facilities and the related guarantees are secured by a perfected first priority lien on substantially all of the borrower’s and the guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, in each case, subject to permitted liens and certain exceptions.

UFC Credit Facilities

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we have borrowed an aggregate of ~~$2.3~~$2.2 billion of first lien term loans under the UFC Credit Facilities. Following a repricing under the UFC Credit Facilities in January 2021, borrowings under the UFC Credit Facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate equal to either, at our option, adjusted LIBOR or the ABR plus, in each case, an applicable margin. LIBOR term loans accrue interest at a rate equal to an adjusted LIBOR

plus 2.75%-3.00%, depending

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio, in each case with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. ABR term loans accrue interest at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus ~~0.50%~~0.5%, (b) the prime rate, (c) adjusted LIBOR for

a one-month interest

period plus 1.00% and (d) 1.75%, plus

(ii) 1.75%-2.00%. The

term loans under the UFC Credit Facilities include 1%1.00% principal amortization payable in equal quarterly installments and mature on April 29, 2026. See Note ~~11, “Debt,”~~12, “Debt” and Note 22, "Subsequent Events" to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further detail on the UFC Credit Facilities.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we have the option to borrow incremental loans in an aggregate amount equal to at least $455.0 million, subject to market demand, and may be able to borrow additional funds depending on our First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined under the UFC Credit Facilities). The credit agreement governing the UFC Credit Facilities includes certain mandatory prepayment provisions relating to, among other things, the incurrence of additional debt. On June 29, 2021, we repaid $180.2 million of first lien term loans under the UFC Credit Facilities.

On October 27, 2021, we amended the facility to provide for a $600 million term loan, which we borrowed in full.

The UFC Credit Facilities also include a revolving credit facility, which ~~had~~has $205.0 million of total borrowing capacity and letter of credit and swingline

loan sub-limits of

up to $40.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively. Revolving credit facility borrowings under the UFC Credit Facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate equal to either, at our option, adjusted LIBOR or ABR plus, in each case, an applicable margin. LIBOR revolving loans accrue interest at a rate equal to an adjusted LIBOR

plus 3.50-4.00%, depending

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio, in each case with a LIBOR floor of 0.00%. ABR revolving loans accrue interest at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate, (c) adjusted LIBOR for

a one-month interest

period plus 1.00% and (d) 1.00%,

plus (ii) 2.50-3.00%, depending

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio. We pay a commitment fee on the revolving credit facility under the UFC Credit Facilities

of 0.25-0.50%, based

on the First Lien Leverage Ratio and Letter of Credit fees of 0.125%. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit of $10.0 million. The revolving facility under the UFC Credit Facilities matures on April 29, 2024.

The revolving facility under the UFC Credit Facilities is subject to a financial covenant if greater than 35% of the borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit

and non-cash collateralized

letters of credit of up to $10.0 million) is utilized at the end of any fiscal quarter. This covenant was not applicable on ~~June~~September 30, 2021, as we had no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility.

~~Table of Contents~~

The UFC Credit Facilities contain certain restrictive covenants around indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, guarantees, investments, asset sales and transactions with affiliates.

The borrower’s obligations under the UFC Credit Facilities are guaranteed by certain of UFC Parent’s indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. All obligations under the UFC Credit Facilities and the related guarantees are secured by a perfected first priority lien on substantially all of the borrower’s and the guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, in each case, subject to permitted liens and certain exceptions.

Restrictions on dividends

Both the Credit Facilities and the UFC Credit Facilities contain restrictions on our ability to make distributions and other payments from the respective credit groups and which therefore limit our ability to receive cash from our operating units to make dividends to the holders of Class A common stock. These restrictions on dividends include exceptions for, among other things, (1) amounts necessary to make tax payments, (2) a limited annual amount for employee equity repurchases, (3) distributions required to fund certain parent entities, (4) other specific allowable situations and (5) a general restricted payment basket, as defined in each of the Credit Facilities and the UFC Credit Facilities.

Other debt

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we had certain other revolving line of credit facilities and long-term debt liabilities, primarily related to Endeavor Content and On Location, with total committed amounts of ~~$400.7~~$528.7 million, of which ~~$239.1~~$233.0 million was outstanding and ~~$33.9~~$123.0 million was available for borrowing based on the supporting asset base. Such facilities have maturity dates in 2023 and ~~2025,~~2026, bearing interest at rates ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%.

Other debt includes our Endeavor Content facility (the “Endeavor Content Facility,” which is an asset-based facility (“ABL”) used to fund television and film production). As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, our Endeavor Content Facility had total capacity of ~~$325.0~~$430.0 million, and we had ~~$209.6~~$204.6 million borrowed. Our ability to borrow under the facility depends on there being sufficient borrowing base capacity, which in turn depends on the number and size of productions we are engaged in and the value of future receipts for the productions. The amounts borrowed under the facility will increase if we enter into additional productions, or decrease if we reduce our production activity. The Endeavor Content Facility matures on March

Table of Contents

31, 2025. In July 2021, the capacity under the Endeavor Content Facility was increased from $325.0 million to $430.0 million.

The outstanding borrowings under this facility have been classified as assets held for sale as of September 30, 2021.

Other debt also includes our On Location revolving credit agreement, which has ~~$20.0~~$42.9 million of total borrowing capacity and letter of credit and swingline

loan sub-limits of

up to $3.0 million each (the “OL Credit Facility”). As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under the OL Credit Facility and no letters of credit outstanding. The OL Credit Facility matures on February 27, 2025. In August, On Location increased its borrowing capacity under its revolving credit agreement from $20.0 million to $42.9 ~~million.~~

million and the maturity date was extended from February 2025 to the earlier of August 2026 or the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the term loans under the Credit Facilities.

Both the Endeavor Content Facility and the OL Credit Facility contain restrictions that are substantially similar to those in the Credit Facilities and the UFC Credit Facilities.

Cash provided in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 primarily represents a decrease in accounts receivable and deferred costs of ~~$247.1~~$263.8 million and ~~$104.2~~$71.6 million due to the adverse impact from

~~Table of Contents~~

payments for acquisitions of businesses, primarily for NCSA, Mailman and FlightScope, of ~~$255.6~~$258.5 million, and investments in non-controlled affiliates, primarily Learfield IMG College, of ~~$114.0~~$139.7 million. Cash used in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 primarily reflects payments for acquisitions of businesses, primarily On Location, of ~~$309.8~~$314.7 million, capital expenditures of ~~$40.8~~$59.9 million and investments in

Cash provided in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 primarily reflects proceeds from the equity ~~offering,~~offerings, net of underwriting discounts, primarily from the IPO and private placements, of $1,886.6 million partially offset by $835.7 million used for the UFC Buyout and net payments on debt of ~~$631.5~~$654.9 million. Cash provided in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 primarily reflects net proceeds from debt of ~~$644.6~~$591.4 million partially offset by distributions of ~~$69.6~~$83.5 million primarily made by UFC.

Future sources and uses of liquidity

Our sources of liquidity are (1) cash on hand, ~~which includes proceeds received from our initial public offering and the private placements completed in May 2021,~~ (2) cash flows from operations, ~~and~~ (3) available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities, including $600 million that was borrowed in October 2021 (which borrowings would be subject to certain restrictive covenants contained therein). and (4) proceeds from the potential sale of the restricted Endeavor Content business. Based on our current expectations, we believe that these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements and to meet our commitments, including long-term debt service for at least the next 12 months. However, the

ongoing COVID-19 pandemic

has had and continues to have a significant impact on cash flows from operations. We expect that the impact

of COVID-19 on

revenue and cash flows will vary, but will generally depend on the duration of the pandemic, the extent and effectiveness of mass vaccinations, emerging variants of the virus, additional actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, changes in consumer preferences towards our business and the industries in which we operate and additional postponements or cancellation of live sporting events and other in person events.

Our cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposit with banks and liquid investments in money market funds. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$869.8~~$1,028.7 million, including cash held

at non-wholly owned

consolidated subsidiaries where cash distributions may be subject to restriction under applicable operating agreements or debt agreements and, due to such restrictions, may not be readily available to service obligations outside of those subsidiaries. These balances, which primarily consist of Endeavor China and On Location were ~~$75~~$118.9 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

We expect that our primary liquidity needs will be cash to (1) provide capital to facilitate organic growth of our business, (2) fund future investments, acquisitions (including OpenBet) and settle acquisition earn-outs from prior acquisitions, (3) pay operating expenses, including cash

Table of Contents

compensation to our employees, (4) fund capital expenditures, (5) pay interest and principal when due on our Senior Credit Facilities, (6) make payments under the tax receivable ~~agreement,~~agreements, (7) pay income taxes, (8) repurchase employee equity (9) make distributions to members and stockholders and (10) reduce our outstanding indebtedness under our Senior Credit Facilities.

We expect to refinance the Senior Credit Facilities prior to the maturity of the outstanding loans, with the first maturity for outstanding term loans under the Senior Credit Facilities occurring in 2025. We currently anticipate being able to secure funding for such refinancing at favorable terms, however our ability to do so may be impacted by many factors, including our growth and other factors specific to our business as well as ~~macro-economic~~macro- economic factors beyond our control, including as a result

of COVID-19.

Tax distributions by Endeavor Operating Company

Other than as described below, we expect to retain all our future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future.

Subject to funds being legally available, we expect that Endeavor Operating Company will make distributions to each of its members, including the Endeavor Profits Units holders and Endeavor Manager, in amounts sufficient to pay applicable taxes attributable to each member’s allocable share of taxable income of Endeavor Operating Company. Tax distributions made in respect of Endeavor Operating Company Units (but not Endeavor Profits Units) will generally be made pro rata in respect of such Units, as described in the Endeavor Operating Company Agreement. However, in certain situations, tax distributions made to Endeavor Manager may be reduced (relative to those tax distributions made to the other members of Endeavor Operating Company) to reflect the income tax rates to which Endeavor Manager and Endeavor Group Holdings are subject and certain other factors. Non

pro-rata

tax distributions may be paid to holders of Endeavor Profit Units.

~~Table of Contents~~

Tax Receivable ~~Agreement~~

Agreements

Generally, we are required under the tax receivable ~~agreement~~agreements to make payments to the TRA Holders that are generally equal to 85% of the applicable cash tax savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that we realize or are deemed to realize (determined by using certain assumptions) as a result of favorable tax attributes that will be available to us as a result of certain transactions contemplated in connection with our IPO, exchanges of Endeavor Operating Company Units for Class A common stock or cash and payments made under the tax receivable ~~agreement.~~agreements. We will generally be entitled to retain the remaining 15% of these cash tax savings. Payments will be due only after we have filed our U.S. federal and state income tax returns. The first payment would be due after the filing of our tax return for the year ending December 31, 2021, which is due April 15, 2022, but the due date can be extended until October 15, 2022. Payments under the tax receivable ~~agreement~~agreements will bear interest from the due date of the tax return reflecting the applicable tax benefits. We currently expect to fund these payments from cash flows from operations generated by our subsidiaries as well as from excess tax distributions that we receive from our subsidiaries.

Under the tax receivable ~~agreement,~~agreements, as a result of certain types of transactions or occurrences, including a transaction resulting in a change of control or a material breach of our obligations under the tax receivable ~~agreement,~~agreements, we may also be required to make payments to the TRA Holders in amounts equal to the present value of future payments we are obligated to make under the tax receivable ~~agreement.~~agreements. If the payments under the tax receivable ~~agreement~~agreements are accelerated, we may be required to raise additional debt or equity to fund such payments. To the extent that we are unable to make payments under the tax receivable ~~agreement~~agreements as a result of having insufficient funds (including because our credit agreements restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions to us) such payments will generally be deferred and will accrue interest until paid.

Critical Accounting Estimates

For a description of our policies regarding our critical accounting estimates, see “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the Prospectus. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, there were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates or the application or the results of the application of those policies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements from those previously disclosed.

Recent Accounting Standards

See Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further information on certain accounting standards that have been recently adopted or that have not yet been required to be implemented and may be applicable to our future operations.

Off-Balance

Sheet Arrangements

We do not invest in any

off-balance

sheet vehicles that provide liquidity, capital resources, market or credit risk support, or engage in any activities that expose us to any liability that is not reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements except for those described under “Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies” below.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

As described in Note 1920 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements, during 2021, we entered into new arrangements increasing our purchase/guarantee agreements by $1.3 billion, which will be due in 2021 through 2028. There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations disclosed in the Prospectus.

Table of Contents

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest rate risk

Our exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the floating interest component on our long-term debt. The Senior Credit Facilities bear interest at floating rates and we regularly monitor and manage interest rate risks. $1.5 billion of our Senior Credit Facilities have been swapped to fixed rates. For the remainder, holding debt levels constant as of September 30, 2021, a 1% increase in the effective interest rates would have increased our annual interest expense by $39 ~~million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.~~

million.

Certain tenors of LIBOR will be eliminated at the end of 2021 and June 2023. Our loans are benchmarked off tenors, including 1 month and 3 month LIBOR, expiring in June 2023. Our Credit Agreement includes fallback language for the new standard benchmark rate that will be offered, Secured Overnight Financing Rate “SOFR”. We cannot quantify the impact of LIBOR’s replacement benchmark rate at this time.

~~Table of Contents~~

Foreign currency risk

We have operations in several countries outside of the United States, and certain of our operations are conducted in foreign currencies, principally the British Pound and the Euro. The value of these currencies fluctuates relative to the U.S. dollar. These changes could adversely affect the U.S. dollar equivalent of

our non-U.S. dollar

revenue and operating costs and expenses and reduce international demand for our content and services, all of which could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations in a given period or in specific territories.

Holding other variables constant (such as interest rates and debt levels), if the U.S. dollar appreciated by 10% against the foreign currencies used by our operations in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, revenues would have decreased by approximately ~~$75.7~~$94.7 million and operating income would have improved by approximately ~~$7.6~~$7.5 million.

We regularly review our foreign exchange exposures that may have a material impact on our business and from time to time use foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of potential adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates arising from these exposures. We do not enter into foreign exchange contracts or other derivatives for speculative purposes.

Item 4. Control Procedures

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules

13a-15(e)

and

15d-15(e)

under the Exchange ~~Act~~Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules

13a-15(f)

and

15d-15(f)

under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time we may be involved in claims and proceedings arising in the course of our business. The outcome of any such claims or proceedings, regardless of the merits, is inherently uncertain. For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 1920 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business, financial condition and operating results can be affected by a number of factors, whether current known or unknown, including but not limited to those described as risk factors, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual operating results and financial condition to vary materially from past, or anticipated future, operating results and financial condition. For a discussion of these potential risks and uncertainties, see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 and of Amendment No.1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, which risk factors are incorporated

The Registrant undertakes to furnish supplemental copies of any of the omitted schedules upon request by the SEC. The sale or possibility of the sale of shares pursuant to the aforementioned registration statement could have the effect of increasing the volatility in the market price of our Class A common stock or decreasing the market price itself.

~~Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds~~

~~Use of Proceeds~~

On April 28, 2021, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-254908), as amended (the “Registration Statement”), was declared effective by the SEC for our initial public offering of our Class A common stock, pursuant to which we sold a total of 21,300,000 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a public offering price of $24.00 per share.

~~Endeavor~~

Operating Company used the remaining $1,051.3 million of the net proceeds contributed to it from our IPO and the concurrent private placements (as described below) for the repayment of debt ($629 million, including early redemption fees), acquisitions and investments ($304 million) and the remainder for general corporate purposes. Accordingly, as of the date of the Original Filing, we have used all of the net proceeds from the IPO.

~~Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities~~

On May 3, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of our IPO, we closed the private placement of shares of our Class A common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the “Class A common stock”) with each of Capital Research and Management Company, Coatue Management, L.L.C., Dragoneer Investment Group LLC, Elliott Investment Management L.P., Fertitta Capital, Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC, Kraft Group LLC, MSD Capital, L.P., Mubadala Investment Company, Silver Lake, Tako Ventures, LLC, Tencent, Third Point LLC, affiliates of Valiant Holding AG, and Zeke Capital Advisors, LLC (the “private placement investors”) to purchase an aggregate of 75,584,747 shares of our Class A common stock, consisting of 57,378,497 shares of Class A common stock sold by us and 18,206,250 shares of Class A common stock sold by affiliates of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (“KKR”), in each case, at a price per share equal to $24.00 (the “Private Placements”). The aggregate proceeds from the Private Placements were $1,814.0 million, which included proceeds of $1,377.0 million to us and proceeds of $437.0 million to affiliates of KKR. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to the Private Placements. The Private Placements were conducted as
