Charles Wilber Key Message: We have updated our model, primarily adjusting estimates for MSG charles.wilber@guggenheimpartners.com Networks (which our valuation places at $0). Our AOI forecasts for SPHR are unchanged 804 335 3977
at $37mm for 2Q and $253mm for CY26. We note that our CY26 AOI estimates
Grayson Glenn continue to include ~$20-$25mm of equity awards due to stock appreciation and
grayson.glenn@guggenheimpartners.com some restructuring (which we expect to reverse out for CY27). Our outlook for SPHR
804 253 8053 remains bullish on: 1) additional SPHR announcements this year and next, 2) globally
known IP that will eventually replace WOZ, 3) a continued ramp of venue utilization
across show types and parts of the day/night, and 4) additional advertising/sponsorship
announcements. PT up to $188 (from $175 prior).
