Live Nation price target raised to $181 from $164 at UBS

UBS raised the firm’s price target on Live Nation (LYV) to $181 from $164 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Live Nation delivered a Q4 beat, with revenue of $6.3B and AOI of $194M, ahead of expectations across segments, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The 2026 outlook calls for continued double-digit AOI growth, supported by Concert and Sponsorship strength and increased $1.2B capex for venue expansion, while Ticketing faces modest pressure from efforts to curb secondary activity, reinforcing a long-term growth trajectory tied to owned-and-operated venue expansion and pricing opportunities, UBS says.
