MADISON SQUARE GARDEN ENTERTAINMENT CORP. PROVIDES UPDATE ON

PROPOSED SPIN-OFF TRANSACTION

NEW YORK, NY – February 16, 2023 – Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. (NYSE: MSGE) today announced that it is continuing to make progress on the proposed tax-free spin-off of its traditional live entertainment businesses.

The Company (to be renamed MSG Sphere Corp. following the spin-off) has filed a publicly available Form 10 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the new live entertainment company, which would take on the name Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. (“MSG Entertainment”). The Company has also published an investor presentation, available at investor.msgentertainment.com, highlighting the new live entertainment company’s assets and financial profile.

The proposed spin-off would create two distinct companies for shareholders – MSG Entertainment, a pure-play live entertainment company with a diverse collection of venues in New York and Chicago, the Company’s entertainment and sports bookings business, as well as the Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes production; and MSG Sphere Corp., which would be comprised of the Company’s MSG Sphere, MSG Networks and Tao Group Hospitality businesses.

The Company also announced that James L. Dolan is expected to serve as Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MSG Entertainment, and remain the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MSG Sphere Corp.

Completion of the transaction remains subject to various conditions, including effectiveness of the Form 10 Registration Statement, certain league and other approvals, receipt of a tax opinion from counsel and final Board approval. Securities of MSG Entertainment may not be sold, nor may offers to buy be accepted, prior to the time the Form 10 becomes effective. This release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities of MSG Entertainment in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

The Form 10 Registration Statement is filed under the name MSGE Spinco, Inc. (to be renamed Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. following the spin-off).

Exhibit 99.2 FEBRUARY 2023


SAFE HARBOUR MSGE Spinco, Inc. (to be renamed Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. in connection with the Distribution as defined in the Form 10) (the Company ) has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form 10. The Form 10 contains extensive disclosure about the Company and its business, including selected historical and pro forma financial information and risk factors that an investor should consider before deciding whether to invest in securities of the Company. This presentation may contain statements that constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, but are not limited to, certain expectations, goals, projections, and benefits. Words or phrases “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “continue,” “intends,” “plans,” and similar words and terms used in the discussion of future operating and future financial performance identify forward looking statements. Investors are cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Actual results, developments or events may differ materially from those in the forward looking statements as a result of v arious factors, including, but not limited to, the performance of the Company and its business and operations, its financial condition, factors affecting the industries in which it operates, the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic and the factors described in the Form 10, including the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained therein. Forward looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or for any other reason, except to the extent required by law. Investors should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements and should not regard the inclusion of such statements as representations by the Company that its plans and objectives will be achieved or realized. Investors are further advised to consult any further disclosures by the Company in its subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 2


NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES We define adjusted operating income (loss) (“AOI”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as operating income (loss) excluding (i) the impact of non- cash straight-line leasing revenue associated w ith the Arena License Agreements w ith Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. ( MSG Sports ), (ii) depreciation, amortization and impairments of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, (iii) amortization for capitalized cloud computing arrangement costs, (iv) share-based compensation expense, (v ) restructuring charges or credits, (v i) merger and acquisition-related costs, including litigation expenses, (vii) gains or losses on sales or dispositions of businesses and associated settlements, (viii) the impa ct of purchase accounting adjustments related to business acquisitions, and (ix) gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under Mad ison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (w hich was established in November 2021). We believe that given the length of the Arena License Agreements and resulting magnitude of the difference in leasing revenue recognized and cash revenue received, the exc lusion of non-cash leasing revenue provides investors with a clearer picture of the Company's operating performance. Management believes that th is adjustment is beneficial for other incremental reasons as w ell. This adjustment provides senior management, investors and analysts w ith imp ortant information regarding a long-term related party agreement with M SG Sports. I n addition, this adjustment is included under the Company's debt covenant compliance calculation and is a component of the performance measures used to evaluate, and compensate senior management of t he Company. We believe that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense or benefit allows investors to better track the performance of our business without regard to the settlement of an obligation that is not expected to be made in cash. We eliminate merger and acquisition -related costs, w hen applicable, because the Company does not consider such costs to be indicative of the ongoing operating performance of the Company as they result from an ev ent that is of a non-recurring nature, thereby enhancing comparability. In addition, management believes that the exclusion of gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under M SG Entertainment’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, w hich were includ ed for the first time in Fiscal Year 2022, provides investors with a clearer picture of the Company's operating performance given that, in accordance with GAAP, gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities under M SG Entertainment’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan are recogni zed in Operating (income) loss whereas gains and losses related to the remeasurement of the assets under M SG Entertainment’s Executive Deferre d Compensation Plan, w hich are equal to and therefore fully offset the gains and losses related to the remeasurement of liabilities, are recognize d in Other income (expense), net, w hich is not reflected in Operating income (loss). We believe AOI is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company on a combined basis. AOI and similar measures w ith similar titles are common performance measures used by inv estors and analysts to analyze our performance. Internally, we use revenues and AOI as the most important indicators of our business performance, and evaluate management’s effectiveness w ith specific reference to these indicators. AOI should be v iewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flows from oper ating activities, and other measures of performance and/or liquidity presented in accordance w ith U .S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Since AOI is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similar measures w ith simila r titles used by other companies. For a reconciliation from Operating I ncome (U .S. GAAP Basis) to AOI please refer to the appendix w ithin this prese ntation. 3
