Liberty Media issued its earnings report for the fourth quarter of 2014 on Wednesday, revealing an increase in revenues over the equivalent quarter in 2013.

Liberty, which owns interests in companies including SiriusXM Holdings and Live Nation Entertainment, also reported $1.095 billion in earnings,versus $1.025 billion in the fourth quarter of 2013.

According to The Wrap, that put the company right in line with the predictions of analysts, who had forecast that the company would report revenues in the $1.09 billion range.

“Once again, SiriusXM posted record results for the fourth quarter and full year. Subscriber growth in the fourth quarter was a particular highlight, marking the largest fourth quarter increase since 2007.
