Live Nation (LYV) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Live Nation (LYV) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Live Nation Entertainment's positive outlook is supported by a significant increase in event-related deferred revenue by 37% and Ticketmaster's deferred revenue rising by 30%, indicating strong consumer demand and financial health. The company's expansion plans, with new large venues set to open in 2025-2026, are expected to enhance annual capacity by approximately 5 million fans, demonstrating their ongoing commitment to growth in both domestic and international markets. Additionally, key metrics such as a 15% growth in ticketing driven by increased ticket sales and average fees, along with strong onsite spending, signify robust financial performance and heightened consumer engagement in the live event space.
Bears say
Live Nation Entertainment's outlook for the fourth quarter of 2025 has been downgraded, with revenue forecast reduced to $6.049 billion, growing by only 6.5%, compared to previous estimates of 8% growth. The decline is attributed to a lower average revenue per fan for concerts and a decrease in ticket sales, which remain flat instead of experiencing growth, alongside a smaller average fee per ticket. Additionally, increased legal costs and challenges associated with the secondary market business have pressured the adjusted operating income (AOI) forecast, resulting in a projected 10.5% growth instead of the previously anticipated 12%.
