| December Quarter 2025 Trending Schedules |
| Trending Schedules |
| On August 7, 2025, Paramount Global and Skydance Media, LLC ("Skydance") became subsidiaries of Paramount Skydance Corporation, pursuant to a transaction agreement entered into on July 7, 2024 (the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, the "Transactions"). Information included in these schedules has been derived from information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2025, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2025, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2024 of Paramount Global, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first and second quarters of 2025 and each of the quarters of 2024. These schedules contain certain financial measures that are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the body of these schedules. References to "we," "us" and "our" refer to Paramount Skydance Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. The consolidated financial statements within our Form 10-K for 2025 and Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2025 are presented in two distinct periods to indicate a new basis of accounting established for Paramount Global's net assets upon the closing of the Transactions. The periods prior to August 7, 2025 include only Paramount Global and are identified as "Predecessor", and the periods beginning on August 7, 2025 reflect Paramount Skydance Corporation and are identified as "Successor". Due to the new accounting basis, the results of operations and cash flows are not comparable between the Successor and Predecessor periods. The presentation within these schedules similarly reflects the distinction between the Successor and Predecessor periods. In addition, in order to help investors view our results in a manner consistent with our management we are including the following supplemental presentations in Schedules 2-9, as applicable: (1) Pro forma revenue - Schedules 2, 3, 4, and 5a include revenue on a pro forma basis, which reflects the inclusion of Skydance revenues after the elimination of intercompany revenues from Paramount Global in each of the Predecessor periods and, for the third quarter of 2025 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the combination of the Predecessor and Successor periods. (2) Combined - Schedules 2-9 include a supplemental presentation for the third quarter of 2025 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 of amounts other than revenue on a combined basis, which reflects the combination of the Predecessor and Successor amounts within the quarter. Refer to Note 1 of our Form 10-K for 2025 for additional details regarding the new accounting basis established following the closing of the Transactions. |

| (3) Our Predecessor, Paramount Global, had issued and outstanding shares of its 5.75% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") until April 1, 2024 when all outstanding shares were mandatorily converted into shares of Paramount Global Class B Common Stock. For all periods presented prior to this conversion, the impact of the assumed conversion of this preferred stock to shares of common stock would have been antidilutive in the calculations of Reported EPS and Adjusted EPS. When antidilutive, in the calculations of EPS the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding does not include the assumed issuance of shares upon conversion of preferred stock, and preferred stock dividends for the applicable period are deducted from net earnings (loss) from continuing operations. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (4) For periods when we reported a net loss the dilutive impact to shares for Reported EPS is excluded because it would be antidilutive. |
