During March 2023, the Formula One Group paid approximately $202 to SplitCo to settle a portion of the intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by SplitCo, as a result of the repurchase of a portion of Liberty Media's 1.375% Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2023. On July 12, 2023, the Formula One Group paid approximately $71 to SplitCo to settle and extinguish the remaining intergroup interest in the Formula One Group held by SplitCo.
On July 18, 2023, Liberty Media completed the split-off of Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. through a redemption of each outstanding share of Liberty Braves common stock in exchange for one share of the corresponding series of Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. common stock. The intergroup interest in the Liberty Braves Group attributed to SplitCo was settled and extinguished through the attribution of Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. Series C common stock on a one-for-one basis equal to the number of notional shares representing the intergroup interest.
