Company Guidance
During the Atlanta Braves Holdings Third Quarter 2024 Earnings Call, management provided several key metrics and guidance for the future. The company reported a revenue increase to $291 million in Q3 2024 from $272 million in the same period last year, attributed to new sponsorship agreements and higher rates on season tickets. Despite the revenue growth, operating income fell to $6 million due to higher baseball operating costs, such as player salaries and revenue sharing payments. The adjusted OIBDA also decreased to $31 million from $40 million the previous year. Notably, the team achieved an 89-73 record and reached the playoffs for the seventh consecutive season, although they were eliminated in the wildcard series. Additionally, Braves Holdings announced plans for further upgrades to Truist Park and highlighted the significant fan interest with over 3 million tickets sold for the third straight year and a 20,000-person waiting list for season tickets. Going forward, the company is focused on enhancing the in-stadium experience and exploring growth opportunities, particularly through media and mixed-use development, as they prepare to host the MLB All-Star Game next year.
