PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 21/23, Up 16%)

Concert business is on fire. Stock's been on a rollercoaster due to being sued by DOJ on anti-trust allegations. Pressure short term, but long-term a wonderful business. Great management and free cashflow growth.

DON'T BUY

The government regulators are after them (anti-trust) which is never a good thing.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

The US based event ticket seller has been building cash reserves and retiring debt. Pent up demand for concert goers is expected to see double-digit growth in key parameters for the next few years. It is expensive at 70x earnings, but the 65% ROE demonstrates its market dominance in the sector. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $89, looking to achieve $117 — upside potential of 20%. Yield 0%

(Analysts’ price target is $116.88)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 08/23, Up 25%)

They control almost all the live venues for concerts. Demand and schedule for concerts remains huge, like Canadians seeing Taylor Swift in other countries.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

LYV is up 21% this year, which we would not consider so bad. Sales have tripled since 2020 in the covid rebound, and are expected to rise about 10% next year. Concert sales rose 29% last quarter. There are some legal issues, regarding concentration in the industry and investigations by the government, but otherwise we do not see a lot of issues. At 75X earnings, however, the stock is too expensive to get us really interested.

Expanding vertically into venue ownership.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 28/22, Down 36%)

He sold it last year at $7. The post-Covid reopening impulse has long ended.

TOP PICK

Controversial from the Taylor Swift ticket debacle. Bots crashed the website. Investigations will likely come to nothing. Even without Ticketmaster, it's an absolute behemoth in live concerts. Makes money on everything from parking to programs. Cheap. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $100.80)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 19/21, Up 26%) He's still buying. Reopening is happening. Anticipates record year, despite shutdowns in Asia. Profits come from the stadium and merchandise.

TOP PICK

It is the parent of TicketMaster and has control or exclusive rights at 235 venues. Most of the revenue will come from concerts and it is expected to have a record year for revenue. 2022 is expected to have a year similar to 2019. Buy 8, Hold 6, Sell 1 (Analysts’ price target is $127.54)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 22/21, Up 31%) Still owns it and will hold on. He's long on it.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

The largest concert promotor and ticket seller. He was surprised how well the stock did during COVID. They are the only game in town in the space. The problem is the market has already factored in the return of events, so there is not much upside left to be had.

BUY

Has no real competition. It is the gold standard with relationships with the top artists, arenas and stadiums. Concerts are back. There is a multi-year backlog of these concerts. There may be set backs but it will come back, especially with vaccination passports. Still has runway.
