- Organization and Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Operations
Lionsgate Studios Corp. (NYSE: LION) (the “Company,” “Lionsgate,” “New Lionsgate,” “we,” “us” or “our”), a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, is a standalone, pure-play content company focused on the development, production, acquisition, distribution and licensing of motion picture and television content worldwide. The Company owns a portfolio of film and television brands and franchises, a talent management and production business and a film and television library consisting of more than 20,000 titles.
Reorganization and Starz Separation
Prior to May 6, 2025, as further discussed below, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (“Old Lionsgate”) encompassed both the STARZ premium global subscription platform (the “Starz Business”) and the motion picture and television studio operations (the “Studio Business”), which was operated by its consolidated subsidiary, Lionsgate Studios Corp. (“Legacy Lionsgate Studios”) (formerly listed NASDAQ: LION), in which Old Lionsgate held an approximately 87.8% ownership interest.
On May 6, 2025, pursuant to an arrangement agreement, Old Lionsgate completed the separation of Legacy Lionsgate Studios and the Starz Business (the “Starz Separation”), resulting in two independent publicly-traded companies: (i) Lionsgate Studios Corp., which now holds the Studio Business and (ii) Starz Entertainment Corp., which now holds the Starz Business that was previously held by Old Lionsgate.
For accounting purposes, under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), Old Lionsgate was treated as the accounting spinnor and predecessor to the Company and Starz was treated as the accounting spinnee. As a result, the pro rata distribution of the Starz Business was recorded as an equity transaction and no gain or loss was recognized. The historical results of operations and cash flows of the Starz Business, previously reported as the Media Networks segment, are presented as discontinued operations for periods prior to the separation. See Note 2 for the presentation of discontinued operations, including the partial period through May 6, 2025, during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
In connection with the Starz Separation, Old Lionsgate shareholders received shares of both Lionsgate Studios Corp. and Starz Entertainment Corp. based on their respective holdings of Old Lionsgate Class A and Class B shares. In addition, Legacy Lionsgate Studios shareholders (other than Old Lionsgate) exchanged their shares for newly issued Lionsgate common shares based on a defined exchange ratio (the “LG Studios Flip”). As a result, the previously reported noncontrolling interest in Legacy Lionsgate Studios was eliminated. Old Lionsgate Class A and Class B shares, as well as the Legacy Lionsgate Studios common shares, were delisted.
Basis of Presentation
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial reporting and are consistent in all material respects with the accounting policies disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 27, 2026. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of financial results for a full year. The balance sheet as of March 31, 2026 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements, at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lionsgate and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the fiscal 2026 financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2027 presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to ultimate revenue and costs used for the amortization of investment in films and television programs; estimates related to the revenue recognition of sales or usage-based royalties; fair value of equity-based compensation; fair value of assets and liabilities for allocation of the purchase price of companies and assets acquired; income taxes including the assessment of valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; accruals for contingent liabilities; and impairment assessments for investment in films and television programs and goodwill. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
Segment Information
The Company hastwo reportable segments, Motion Picture and Television Production. Motion Picture consists of the development and production of feature films, acquisition of North American and worldwide distribution rights, North American theatrical, home entertainment and television distribution of feature films produced and acquired, and worldwide licensing of distribution rights to feature films produced and acquired. Television Production consists of the development, production and worldwide distribution of television productions including television series, movies, mini-series and non-fiction programming. Television Production includes the domestic and international licensing of Starz original productions to Starz Entertainment Corp., and the ancillary market distribution of Starz original productions and licensed product. Additionally, the Television Production segment includes the results of operations of 3 Arts Entertainment LLC (“3 Arts”), the Company’s talent management and television/film production business.
The Company’s reportable segments are based on the distinct nature of their operations, the Company’s internal management structure and the financial information regularly reviewed by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM uses segment profit, as defined in Note 15, to evaluate the current operating performance of each segment, support future operating plans and forecasts and to allocate resources. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the CODM.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Accounting Guidance Adopted in Fiscal 2027
Financial Instruments: In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)-Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, providing all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. The practical expedient allows entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. The provisions differ from current U.S. GAAP as current guidance requires an entity to consider adjustments to historical credit loss experience to reflect the extent to which management expects current conditions to differ from the conditions that existed for the period over which historical information was evaluated. On April 1, 2026, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2025-05 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or related disclosures.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Income Statement: In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40), requiring public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and therefore will be effective beginning with the Company’s financial statements issued for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028 and interim reporting periods beginning in fiscal 2029, with early adoption permitted. The disclosures required under the ASU can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Business Combinations: In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). This standard clarifies the guidance in determining the acquirer in an acquisition transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests when the legal acquiree is a VIE that meets the definition of a business. The amendments require that an entity consider the same factors that are currently required for determining which entity is the accounting acquirer in other acquisition transactions. This ASU is effective for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and therefore will be effective beginning with the Company’s financial statements issued for the fiscal 2028 interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2025-03 requires that an entity apply the new guidance prospectively to any acquisition that occurs after the initial application date. The Company will adopt this guidance and apply it prospectively to applicable business combinations occurring on or after the date of adoption.
Interim Reporting: In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270) Narrow-Scope Improvements. The update provides clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. This update is effective for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and therefore will be effective beginning with the Company’s financial statements issued for the fiscal 2029 interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for the interim periods within its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2028, and does not expect it to have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Government Grants: In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which establishes authoritative guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants. Under ASU 2025-10, government grants are recognized when it is probable that the entity will both comply with the conditions of the grant and the grant will be received. The ASU provides specific accounting models for grants related to assets and grants related to income, including options to recognize government grants as deferred income or as a reduction of the asset’s cost basis. The ASU also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature of government grants, significant terms and conditions, accounting policies applied, and amounts recognized in the financial statements. ASU 2025-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, and therefore will be effective beginning with the Company’s financial statements issued for the fiscal 2030 interim reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this guidance for the interim periods within its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2029. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

These agreements have varying terms, with certain library license agreements extending through at least 2028 and the pay television/SVOD arrangement with license periods extending through at least 2037. The Company recognized $42.6 million and $82.5 million of revenue from these licensing agreements within continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Production Loans:
Production loans represent individual and multi-title loans for the production of film and television programs that the Company produces. The majority of the Company’s production loans have contractual repayment dates either at or near the expected completion or release dates, with the exception of certain loans containing repayment dates on a longer term basis, and incur primarily SOFR-based interest at a weighted average rate of 5.41% (before the impact of interest rate swaps, see Note 17). As of June 30, 2026, production loans amounting to $1,196.3 million are secured by collateral consisting of the underlying rights related to the intellectual property rights of the related film or television production, with the remaining $168.4 million as unsecured.
Production Tax Credit Facility:
In January 2021, as amended in May 2025, the Company entered into a non-recourse senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Production Tax Credit Facility”) secured solely by certain of the Company’s tax credit receivables. As of June 30, 2026, the Production Tax Credit Facility had a maximum borrowing capacity of $380.0 million, subject to the availability of certain eligible collateral. The collateral is based on specified percentages of amounts receivable from governmental authorities pursuant to the tax incentive laws of eligible jurisdictions related to the production or exploitation of motion pictures and television programming in such jurisdictions. Cash received is used to repay outstanding borrowings under the facility. As of June 30, 2026, tax credit receivable of $443.4 million served as collateral under the facility, and $12.6 million of borrowing capacity remained available. Advances under the facility bear interest at either (i) SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.50% per annum, or (ii) the base rate plus 0.50% per annum (effective interest rate of 5.25% as of June 30, 2026). The Production Tax Credit Facility matures on January 27, 2028.
Backlog Facility and Other:
Backlog Facility. In March 2022, as amended in June 2025, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into a committed secured revolving credit facility (the “Backlog Facility”) based on and secured by collateral consisting solely of certain of the Company’s fixed fee or minimum guarantee contracts where cash will be received in the future. The maximum principal amount of the Backlog Facility as of June 30, 2026 is $175.0 million, subject to the amount of eligible collateral contributed to the facility. Advances under the Backlog Facility bear interest at a rate equal to Term SOFR plus 0.10% to 0.25% depending on the SOFR term (i.e., one, three or six months), plus an applicable margin amounting to 1.15% per annum. The applicable margin is subject to a potential increase to either 1.25% or 1.50% based on the weighted average credit quality rating of the collateral contributed to the facility (effective interest rate of 4.90% as of June 30, 2026). The Backlog Facility revolving period ends on May 30, 2028, at which point cash collections from the underlying collateral is used to repay the facility. The facility maturity date is up to 2 years, 90 days after the revolving period ends, currently August 28, 2030. As of June 30, 2026, there was $175.0 million outstanding (March 31, 2026 - $175.0 million) under the Backlog Facility, resulting inno available borrowing capacity.
Other. The Company has other loans, secured by accounts receivable and contracted receivables not yet recognized as revenue under certain licensing agreements. Outstanding loan balances under these “other” loans is required to be repaid with cash received from the underlying collateral as and when collected and may be voluntarily repaid at any time without prepayment penalties. As of June 30, 2026, outstanding borrowings under the “other” loans was $138.2 million (March 31, 2026 - $132.2 million) bearing SOFR-based interest at a weighted average rate of 5.27%, with remaining contractual repayment dates in July 2026 and December 2027. Accounts receivable of $46.3 million and contracted receivables not yet reflected as accounts receivables of $109.9 million as of June 30, 2026, represented collateral in connection with the “other” loans.
- Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value
Accounting guidance and standards about fair value define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The accounting guidance and standards establish three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
Assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 were as follows:
| June 30,2026 | March 31,2026 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Total | Level 1 | Level 2 | Total | |

| Backlog Facility and Other | 310.8 | 313.2 | 304.6 | 307.2 |
The Company measures the fair value of its outstanding debt and interest rate swaps using discounted cash flow techniques that utilize observable market inputs, such as SOFR-based yield curves, swap rates and credit ratings (Level 2 measurements).
In addition to the financial instruments listed in the tables above, the Company holds other short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, content related payables, and other accrued liabilities. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 given their short-term nature.
Financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs include the Company’s goodwill, equity method investments and film and television costs.
- Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable noncontrolling interests, presented in temporary equity on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, primarily relate to noncontrolling interests in 3 Arts and A & A.
Redeemable noncontrolling interests are measured at the greater of (i) the redemption amount that would be paid if settlement occurred at the balance sheet date less the amount attributed to unamortized noncontrolling interest discount if applicable, or (ii) the historical value resulting from the original acquisition date value plus or minus any earnings or loss attribution, plus the amount of amortized noncontrolling interest discount, less the amount of cash distributions that are not accounted for as compensation, if any. The amount of the redemption value in excess of the historical values of the noncontrolling interest, if any, is recognized as an increase to redeemable noncontrolling interest and a charge to retained earnings or accumulated deficit.
Changes in the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest are reflected in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share attributable to Lionsgate Studios Corp. shareholders, if dilutive, or to the extent such adjustments represent recoveries of amounts previously recognized in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share attributable to Lionsgate Studios Corp. shareholders (see Note 11).
The table below presents the reconciliation of changes in redeemable noncontrolling interests:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Amounts in millions) | ||
| Beginning balance | $114.1 | $93.7 |
| Net income (loss) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests | (1.3) | 0.3 |
| Adjustments to redemption value | 0.4 | — |
| Cash distributions | (1.2) | — |
| Noncontrolling interest related to acquisitions | — | 20.9 |
| Ending balance | $112.0 | $114.9 |
3 Arts Entertainment. The Company has a noncontrolling interest in 3 Arts, of which a portion is reflected as a redeemable noncontrolling interest and a portion is reflected as a liability within “accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Redeemable noncontrolling interest: The redeemable noncontrolling interest balance related to 3 Arts Entertainment of $87.5 million as of June 30, 2026 reflects the fully vested equity portion of the noncontrolling interest, which is classified as redeemable noncontrolling interest outside of shareholders’ equity on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets due to the embedded purchase and sale rights related to the remaining 24% ownership held by the noncontrolling interest holder that are exercisable beginning in January 2027. The redeemable noncontrolling interest is being adjusted to its redemption value through accumulated deficit over the period ending on the earliest exercise date of the purchase and sale rights in January 2027.
Noncontrolling interest reflected as a liability: A portion of the 3 Arts Entertainment noncontrolling interest is considered compensatory, as it is subject to forfeiture provisions upon termination of employment under certain circumstances. The noncontrolling interest holders’ right to sell their interest to the Company, and the Company’s right to purchase the noncontrolling interest, are formula-based amounts (i.e., a fixed EBITDA multiple), subject to a minimum purchase price, rather than being based on fair value. Since the redemption features described above are based on a formula using a fixed multiple, the compensatory portion of the noncontrolling interest is considered a liability award and remeasured at each reporting period. Changes in the estimated redemption value are recognized as compensation expense within general and administrative expense over the vesting period, which extends from January 2, 2024 through the earliest exercise date of the purchase or sale rights in January 2027. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $88.4 million is reflected as “accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheet based on the estimated redemption amount recalculated at the current quarter end.
A & A. On May 30, 2025, 3 Arts acquired a 51% ownership in A & A (see Note 3 for additional details), with the remaining 49% classified as a redeemable noncontrolling interest outside of shareholders’ equity on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The redeemable noncontrolling interest balance was remeasured to its redemption value, resulting in a balance of $19.2 million as of June 30, 2026 (March 31, 2026 - $20.1 million). The embedded purchase and sale rights held by the noncontrolling interest holder, are exercisable beginning in November 2030.
Other. The Company has other immaterial redeemable noncontrolling interests.
Non-Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
CP LG Library Holdings, LLC. The Company has a noncontrolling interest representing approximately 49% of CP LG Library Holdings, LLC (“CP LG”), with the Company designated as the managing member. Upon acquisition, as the Company has the power to direct the significant activities and the right to receive benefits and obligation to absorb losses of CP LG, the Company determined that CP LG is a variable interest entity for which it is the primary beneficiary and the related assets and liabilities of the acquired library is not a business. Therefore, the Company has consolidated CP LG under the applicable accounting guidance.
As of June 30, 2026, the consolidated balance sheet includes assets and liabilities of CP LG totaling $59.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The assets and liabilities of CP LG primarily consist of accounts receivable, investment in film and television programs, and participations and residuals.
Other. The Company has other immaterial noncontrolling interests that are not redeemable and classified in shareholders’ equity on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
- Revenue
The Company’s Motion Picture and Television Production segments generate revenue principally from the licensing of content in domestic theatrical exhibitions, home entertainment (e.g., digital media and packaged media), television and international marketplaces.
Revenue by Segment, Market or Product Line
The table below presents revenue by segment, market or product line for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

| Intersegment eliminations(1) | — | (29.9) |
| Total revenues | $776.6 | $525.9 |
(1)Amounts reflect the impact of intersegment revenue from the Motion Picture and Television Production segments’ licensing of motion pictures and television programming to the former Media Networks segment prior to the Starz separation on May 6, 2025. Following the Starz Separation, licensing transactions between the Company and Starz are no longer eliminated in consolidation and are reflected in consolidated results from continuing operations. See Note 2 for details related to the Company’s continuing involvement with Starz and the impact on its revenue.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent deferred revenue on the balance sheet plus fixed fee or minimum guarantee contracts where the revenue will be recognized, and the cash received in the future (i.e., backlog). Revenues expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at June 30, 2026 are as follows:
| Rest of Year Ending March 31, 2027 · Year Ending March 31, | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2028 · 2029 · Thereafter · Total | |||||
| (Amounts in millions) | |||||
| Remaining Performance Obligations | $1,389.1 | $324.2 | $94.8 | $105.0 | $1,913.1 |
The above table does not include estimates of variable consideration for transactions involving sales or usage-based royalties in exchange for licenses of intellectual property. The revenues included in the above table include all fixed fee contracts regardless of duration.
Revenues of $102.1 million, including variable and fixed fee arrangements, were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2026, from performance obligations satisfied prior to March 31, 2026. These revenues were primarily associated with the distribution of television and theatrical product in electronic sell-through and video-on-demand formats, and to a lesser extent, the distribution of theatrical product in the domestic and international markets related to films initially released in prior periods.
Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Deferred Revenue
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections affects the recognition of accounts receivable, contract assets and deferred revenue. See the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets or Note 18 for accounts receivable and contract assets as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026.
Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable is presented net of estimated credit losses. The Company estimates credit losses for accounts receivable based on historical experience for the respective risk categories and current and future expected economic conditions. To assess collectability, the Company analyzes market trends, economic conditions, the aging of receivables and customer specific risks, and records an allowance for estimated credit losses expected over the lifetime of the receivables in direct operating expense.
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and monitors its credit exposure through active review of customers’ financial condition, aging of receivable balances, historical collection trends, and expectations about relevant future events that may significantly affect collectability. The Company generally does not require collateral for its trade accounts receivable.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses were as follows:
| March 31, 2026 | Provision for credit losses | Uncollectible accounts written-off | June 30, 2026 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in millions) | ||||
| Allowance for credit losses | $6.3 | $3.4 | $(3.7) | $6.0 |
Contract Assets. Contract assets relate to the Company’s conditional right to consideration for completed performance under the contract (e.g., unbilled receivables). Amounts relate primarily to contractual payment holdbacks in cases where the Company is required to deliver additional episodes or seasons of television content in order to receive payment, complete certain administrative activities, such as guild filings, or allow the Company’s customers’ audit rights to expire. See Note 18 for contract assets as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026.
Deferred Revenue. Deferred revenue relates primarily to customer cash advances or deposits received prior to when the Company satisfies the corresponding performance obligation. Deferred revenue as of June 30, 2026 increased as compared to March 31, 2026 due to the receipt of customers’ payments for certain motion pictures and television programs prior to the Company satisfying the corresponding performance obligation (i.e., completion and delivery of the motion pictures and television programs, and the start of the customers’ exploitation rights). Revenues of $187.2 million were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2026, related to the balance of deferred revenue as of March 31, 2026.
- Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. As a result of the Starz Separation, weighted average common shares outstanding, basic and dilutive, prior to May 6, 2025 reflect pre-transaction Old Lionsgate Class A Shares multiplied by one and twelve one-hundredths (1.12) and pre-transaction Old Lionsgate Class B Shares. The LG Studios Flip is reflected as of May 6, 2025. Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is presented below:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Amounts in millions, except per share amounts) | ||
| Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share: | ||
| Numerator: | ||
| Net loss from continuing operations | $(28.8) | $(94.0) |
| Less: Accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interest | (0.4) | — |
| Net loss from continuing operations after accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interest | (29.2) | (94.0) |
| Net loss from discontinued operations | — | (14.9) |
| Net loss attributable to Lionsgate Studios Corp. shareholders after accretion of redeemable noncontrolling interest | $(29.2) | $(108.9) |
| Denominator: | ||
| Weighted average common shares outstanding | 291.6 | 272.3 |
| Basic and diluted net loss per common share - continuing operations | $(0.10) | $(0.35) |
| Basic and diluted net loss per common share - discontinued operations | — | (0.05) |
| Basic and diluted net loss per common share | $(0.10) | $(0.40) |
As a result of the net loss from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the dilutive effect of the share purchase options, restricted share units (“RSUs”), and contingently issuable shares were considered anti-dilutive and, therefore, excluded from diluted net loss per share. The weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from the calculation due to the net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026 totaled 10.4 million (three months ended June 30, 2025 -2.4 million).
Additionally, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the outstanding issuable common shares presented below were excluded from diluted net loss per common share because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect regardless of net income or loss in the period:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Amounts in millions) | ||
| Anti-dilutive shares issuable | ||
| Share purchase options | 7.7 | 17.0 |
| Restricted share units | — | 0.1 |
| Other issuable shares | 11.2 | 3.3 |
| Total weighted average anti-dilutive shares issuable excluded from diluted net loss per common share | 18.9 | 20.4 |
- Capital Stock
(a) Common Shares
As of June 30, 2026, the Company has an unlimited number of authorized shares to issue.
(b) Preferred Shares
The Company has 200 million authorized shares of preferred stock with no par value. No shares had been issued as of June 30, 2026.
(c) Shareholder Rights Agreement
In connection with the Starz Separation, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a dividend ofone common share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding Lionsgate Common Share and adopted a Shareholder Rights Agreement. Each Right entitled the holder to purchaseone common share at an exercise price of $32.00. All Rights expired unexercised and unredeemed on May 7, 2026.
(d) Share-based Compensation
Incentive Plans. The Company serves as the sponsor of the Lionsgate Studios Corp. 2025 Performance Incentive Plan (the “Lionsgate 2025 Plan”), as approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. A total of 58 million Lionsgate Common Shares are reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2025 Lionsgate Plan.
The Lionsgate 2025 Plan provides for grants of stock options, share appreciation rights (“SARS”), RSUs, stock bonuses and other forms of equity awards, as well as certain cash bonus awards to directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and certain consultants and advisors to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
The table below presents common shares reserved for future issuance as of June 30, 2026:
| June 30,2026 | |
|---|---|
| (Amounts in millions) | |
| Stock options and SARs outstanding | 20.9 |
| RSUs - unvested | 13.2 |
| Common shares available for future issuance | 12.7 |
| Shares reserved for future issuance | 46.8 |
Share-based Compensation Expense. The measurement of all share-based awards uses a fair value method and the recognition of the related share-based compensation expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is recorded over the requisite service period. As share-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures.
The Company recognized the following share-based compensation expense during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Amounts in millions) | ||
| Share-Based Compensation Expense: | ||
| Stock options | $1.2 | $0.1 |
| Restricted share units and other share-based compensation | 39.1 | 2.5 |
| Share appreciation rights | — | 0.2 |
| 40.3 | 2.8 | |
| Impact of accelerated vesting on equity awards(1) | 0.8 | (1.1) |
| Total share-based compensation expense | $41.1 | $1.7 |
(1)Represents the impact of the acceleration of vesting schedules for equity awards pursuant to certain severance arrangements.
Share-based compensation expense, by expense category, consisted of the following:

| General and administration | $40.3 | $2.8 |
| Restructuring and other | 0.8 | (1.1) |
| Total share-based compensation expense | $41.1 | $1.7 |
Stock Options and SARs

Substantially all stock options vest ratably overone tofive years from the grant date based on continuous service and expire seven toten years from the date of grant. The Company satisfies stock option exercises with newly issued shares.
The following table summarizes the activities during the three months ended June 30, 2026 related to the Company’s stock options and SARs:
| Number of Shares · Weighted Average Exercise Price (per share) | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in millions, except per share amounts) | |||
| Outstanding as of March 31, 2026 | 16.9 | $14.67 | |
| Granted(1) | 4.5 | $11.07 | |
| Options exercised | (0.5) | $10.20 | |
| Forfeited or expired | — | (2) | $14.88 |
| Outstanding as of June 30, 2026 | 20.9 | $14.01 | |
| Vested or expected to vest as of June 30, 2026 | 20.8 | $14.01 | |
| Exercisable as of June 30, 2026 | 16.2 | $14.85 | |
(1) Represents market-based equity awards granted to a certain executive officer of the Company.
(2) Represents less than 0.1 million shares.
Restricted Share Units
RSUs generally vest ratably overone tofive years based on continuous service. The Company satisfies vesting of RSUs with newly issued shares.
The following table summarizes the activities during the three months ended June 30, 2026 related to the Company’s unvested RSUs:
| Number of Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share) | |
|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in millions, except per share amounts) | ||
| Unvested as of March 31, 2026 | 15.9 | $6.8 |
| Granted(1) | 0.8 | $10.88 |
| Vested | (3.3) | $6.67 |
| Forfeited or expired | (0.2) | $6.38 |
| Unvested as of June 30, 2026 | 13.2 | $7.11 |
(1) During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company granted market-based equity awards to a certain executive officer of the Company which consisted of 0.7 million RSUs.
- Income Taxes
The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, was determined by applying the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate to income (loss) before income taxes for the interim period, adjusted for the tax effects of items that relate discretely to the period, if any. The estimated annual effective tax rate represents the Company's estimated annual income tax provision divided by its estimated annual income (loss) before income taxes.
The Company’s income tax provision differs from the amount that would result from applying the Canadian federal statutory income tax rate to income (loss) before income taxes. This difference is primarily attributable to the mix of earnings and losses across the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the effect of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in jurisdictions where the Company does not recognize a tax benefit on losses, and certain minimum taxes and foreign withholding taxes. The Company’s income tax provision may also be affected by the overall level of pre-tax income (loss), changes in tax laws and regulations, changes in uncertain tax positions, available tax planning strategies, and other discrete items.
- Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and other includes restructuring and severance costs and certain transaction and other costs, when applicable. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred certain other unusual charges not indicative of normal ongoing operations, included in direct operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Restructuring and other costs and other unusual charges included in direct operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Amounts in millions) | ||
| Restructuring and other: | ||
| Severance(1) | 2.3 | 1.7 |
| Transaction and other costs(2) | 0.6 | 3.1 |
| Total restructuring and other | 2.9 | 4.8 |
| Other unusual charges not included in restructuring and other or the Company’s operating segments: | ||
| Unallocated rent cost included in direct operating expense(3) | 5.1 | 5.4 |
| Total restructuring and other and other unusual charges not included in restructuring and other | $8.0 | $10.2 |
(1)Severance costs were primarily related to workforce reduction actions undertaken in connection with restructuring activities, as well as other cost-reduction initiatives.
(2)Transaction and other costs primarily relate to transaction, integration and legal costs incurred in connection with certain strategic transactions and restructuring activities, as well as costs associated with certain legal matters. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, transaction costs associated with the Starz Separation are excluded, as such amounts are classified within discontinued operations.
(3)Amounts represent rent cost for production facilities that were unutilized due to lower demand following the industry strikes and, as such, were not allocated to the Company’s segments.

- Segment Information
The Company hastwo reportable business segments as discussed in Note 1: (1) Motion Picture and (2) Television Production.
(1)Motion Picture. Motion Picture consists of the development and production of feature films, acquisition of North American and worldwide distribution rights, North American theatrical, home entertainment and television distribution of feature films produced and acquired, and worldwide licensing of distribution rights to feature films produced and acquired.
(2) Television Production. Television Production consists of the development, production and worldwide distribution of television productions including television series, television movies and mini-series and non-fiction programming. Television Production includes the licensing of Starz original series productions to Starz, and the ancillary market distribution of Starz original productions and licensed product (prior to the Starz Separation, licensing to the former Media Networks segment). Additionally, the Television Production segment includes the results of operations of 3 Arts Entertainment.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company’s reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. Prior to the Starz Separation, the most significant intersegment transactions were licenses of motion pictures and television programming, including Starz original productions, from the Motion Picture and Television Production segments to the former Media Networks segment. These transactions were included in segment results but eliminated in consolidation. Following the Starz Separation, licensing transactions between the Company and Starz are no longer eliminated in consolidation and are reflected in consolidated results from continuing operations. See Note 2 for details related to the continuing involvement of the Company and Starz and the related impact on revenue.

The CODM uses segment profit to evaluate the current operating performance of each segment, support future operating plans and forecasts and to allocate resources. Segment profit is defined as segment revenues, less segment direct operating, segment distribution and marketing and segment general and administration expenses. Segment profit excludes, when applicable, corporate general and administrative expenses, restructuring and other costs, share-based compensation, certain content charges as a result of changes in management and/or content strategy, unallocated rent cost and purchase accounting and related adjustments. The Company believes the presentation of segment profit is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view segment performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s CODM.
The following table reconciles total segment profit to the Company’s loss from continuing operations before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

- Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any material changes in its non-cancellable contractual obligations (other than activities in the ordinary course of business).
Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is involved in certain claims and legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business.
The Company establishes an accrued liability for claims and legal proceedings when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company is not a party to any material pending claims or legal proceeding and is not aware of any other claims that it currently expects will, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
- Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts
The Company enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge its foreign currency exposures on future production expenses and tax credit receivables denominated in various foreign currencies (i.e., cash flow hedges). The Company also enters into forward foreign exchange contracts that economically hedge certain of its foreign currency risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are party to its financial transactions. Changes in the fair value of the foreign exchange contracts that are designated as hedges are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and changes in the fair value of foreign exchange contracts that are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in direct operating expense. Gains and losses realized upon settlement of the foreign exchange contracts that are designated as hedges are amortized to direct operating expense on the same basis as the production expenses being hedged.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had the following outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts (all outstanding contracts have maturities of less than 23 months from June 30, 2026):
| Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency Amount | US Dollar Amount | Weighted Average Exchange Rate Per $1 USD | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in millions) | (Amounts in millions) | |||
| Euro | 178.3 EUR | in exchange for | 208.3 USD | 0.86 EUR |
| Australian Dollar | 6.4 AUD | in exchange for | 4.5 USD | 1.42 AUD |
| Canadian Dollar | 104.4 CAD | in exchange for | 75.8 USD | 1.38 CAD |
| Pound Sterling | 0.1 GBP | in exchange for | 0.1 USD | 1.06 GBP |
| Hungarian Forint | 5,931.6 HUF | in exchange for | 17.2 USD | 344.32 HUF |
| Thai Bhat | 99.2 THB | in exchange for | 3.1 USD | 32.14 THB |
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its borrowing activities. The Company’s objective is to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. The Company primarily uses pay-fixed interest rate swaps to facilitate its interest rate risk management activities, which the Company generally designates as cash flow hedges of interest payments on floating-rate borrowings. Pay-fixed swaps effectively convert floating-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings. The unrealized gains or losses from these designated cash flow hedges are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in interest expense as the interest payments occur. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps that are not designated as hedges are recorded in interest expense (see further explanation below).
Cash settlements related to interest rate contracts are generally classified as operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Designated Cash Flow Hedges. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had the following pay-fixed interest rate swaps, which were designated as cash flow hedges outstanding (all related to the Company’s SOFR-based debt, see Note 6 and Note 7):
| Effective Date | Notional Amount | Fixed Rate Paid | Maturity Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | |||
| August 15, 2024 | $65.0 | 4.045% | September 15, 2026 |
| August 15, 2024 | $77.5 | 3.803% | August 15, 2026 |

Unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets: The Company classifies its forward foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments (see Note 8). Pursuant to the Company’s accounting policy to offset the fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments, the Company presents the asset or liability position of the swaps that are with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement net as either an asset or liability in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, there were no outstanding swaps that were subject to a master netting arrangement.
As of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, the Company had the following amounts recorded in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Company’s use of derivatives:

| Interest rate swaps | — | 1.6 |
| Fair value of derivatives | $— | $4.3 |
As of June 30, 2026, based on the current release schedule, the Company estimates approximately $1.2 million of gains associated with forward foreign exchange contract cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings during the one-year period ending June 30, 2027.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company estimates approximately $25.2 million of gains recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income associated with interest rate swap agreement cash flow hedges that will be reclassified into interest expense during the one-year period ending June 30, 2027.

In addition, other current and noncurrent liabilities include $296.6 million and $301.2 million of operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, respectively.
Accounts Receivable Monetization
Under the Company’s accounts receivable monetization programs, the Company has entered into individual agreements to monetize certain of its trade accounts receivable directly with third-party purchasers. Under these programs, the Company transfers receivables to purchasers in exchange for cash proceeds that are classified as operating cash flows. Any losses, representing the difference between the net proceeds received (net of any obligations incurred) and the carrying amount of the receivables transferred, are recorded in “other loss, net” on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company continues to service the transferred receivables and receives servicing fees that approximate the fair value of such services. The fees were immaterial for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The third-party purchasers have no recourse to other assets of the Company for customer non-payment.
The following table presents a summary of the receivables transferred under individual agreements or purchases during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:
| Three Months Ended | ||
