Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. has publicly filed a Form 10 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the proposed spin-off of its New York Rangers business from its New York Knicks business. Following the spin-off, MSG Sports is expected to be renamed MSG Knickerbockers Corp. and would include the Knicks and the Westchester Knicks, while the newly created MSG Rangers Corp. would include the Rangers, the Hartford Wolf Pack, and the MSG Training Center. James L. Dolan is expected to serve as Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MSG Rangers Corp. and remain Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MSG Knickerbockers Corp. The transaction is expected to be structured as a tax-free spin-off to all Company shareholders, with record holders of Class A and Class B common stock receiving a pro-rata distribution of 100% of the common stock in the new Rangers company. MSG Sports currently expects to complete the spin-off by the end of October 2026, subject to league approval, a tax opinion from counsel, and Company board approval.
