(2) Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to Liberty Live shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (“WASO”) for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented. Excluded from diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are 513 thousand and 579 thousand potential common shares, respectively, because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

​

The Company issued 91.9 million common shares, which is the aggregate number of shares of Series A, Series B and Series C Liberty Live Group common stock issued in connection with the Split-Off on December 15, 2025. The number of shares issued upon completion of the Split-Off was used to determine both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as no Company equity awards were outstanding prior to the completion of the Split-Off.
