The Atlanta Braves (NASDAQ:BATRA) (NASDAQ: BATRA) are a professional baseball club that competes in Major League Baseball’s National League East division. Founded in 1871 as the Boston Red Stockings, the franchise relocated to Milwaukee in 1953 before settling in Atlanta in 1966. As one of MLB’s oldest and most storied organizations, the Braves are responsible for fielding a Major League team, overseeing player development through a network of minor league affiliates, and managing baseball operations under the leadership of President of Baseball Operations Alex Anthopoulos.
Beyond on‐field performance, the Braves operate a diversified sports and entertainment business. The organization manages Truist Park, its home venue in the Atlanta suburb of Cumberland, including premium seating, concessions and fan experiences. Adjacent to the ballpark is The Battery Atlanta, a mixed‐use development featuring retail, dining, office space and hotel accommodations that the company developed and continues to operate, creating a year-round entertainment destination.
In addition to game-day revenues, the Braves generate income from media rights, merchandising, licensing and sponsorships. The team’s digital platforms deliver live streaming, highlights and original content to a global fan base, while branded merchandise is distributed through team stores and e-commerce channels. Strategic partnerships with regional broadcasters and national media networks further extend the Braves’ reach.
The Braves’ corporate entity traces its current structure to a spin‐merger with Liberty Media in 2022, which created a standalone public company focused on Braves Group assets. Under President and CEO Derek Schiller, the organization pursues growth initiatives in real estate development, technology-driven fan engagement and international marketing, positioning the Braves as both a competitive baseball franchise and an integrated sports entertainment enterprise.
