Base and Bull scenarios

Base60%

Price target

$46.58

-72.4% from spot

The base case reflects the house modal forecast where Live Nation's integrated promotion and ticketing ecosystem delivers steady top-line growth through FY2027 before moderating toward terminal growth. Operating margins expand through FY2030, driven by operating leverage in ticketing and sponsorship. Reinvestment moderates as venue buildouts complete across 2026-2027, allowing free cash flow to inflect through FY2030. Discounted at WACC with net debt deduction, Fair value is $46.58.

Revenue expands through FY2026 and FY2027, tracking consensus expectations, before decelerating toward terminal growth by FY2030.
Operating margins expand from reported FY2025 levels through FY2026 and across the multi-year forecast through FY2030.
Reinvestment rate steps down through FY2030 as peak transformation venue capex normalizes, supporting Fair value of $46.58.

Bull15%

Price target

$59.09

-65.0% from spot

In the bull case scenario, rapid international arena expansion and sustained consumer demand for live stadium experiences drive top-line revenue beyond consensus expectations by FY2027. Enhanced on-site monetization across food, beverage, and premium hospitality expands operating margins, while Ticketmaster enterprise partnerships optimize inventory yield. Accelerated completion of the venue buildout lowers capital reinvestment of NOPAT, unlocking annual free cash flow expansion and supporting an intrinsic equity valuation of $59.09.

International arena additions (Bangkok, Milan, Buenos Aires) and sustained double-digit fan growth drive revenue toward consensus targets by FY2027.
Consolidated operating margins expand as high-margin sponsorship and enterprise ticketing partnerships scale.
Reinvestment rate moderates toward completion of the venue buildout, unlocking annual free cash flow expansion and supporting Potential value of $59.09.
