NEW YORK, April 29, 2014

NEW YORK, April 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In front of a live audience on the New Fronts stage at Lincoln Center, Live Nation Entertainment Chief Executive Officer Michael Rapino and Yahoo! Chief Marketing Officer Kathy Savitt unveiled the Live Nation Channel on Yahoo.

YAHOO! AND LIVE NATION ENTERTAINMENT UNVEIL: THE LIVE NATION CHANNEL ON YAHOO
"The Live Nation Channel on Yahoo will build on Live Nation's leading live music platform of 23,000 annual concerts, including the world's largest festival portfolio. With Yahoo, we will leverage our scale to establish a media platform unlike any that exists today," said Rapino. "Launching this summer, this channel will offer fans a new destination where they can watch their favorite artists and also discover new ones."

"This endeavor could only be created by Yahoo and Live Nation," said Savitt.  "The Live Nation Channel on Yahoo will only become a reality because of the combined power of Yahoo's reach of 800 million users and Live Nation's, unrivaled position in the concert industry. This is the most ambitious live concert network ever undertaken, and Live Nation is the only partner with whom we could achieve this."

Live Nation's dedicated online channel creates a new paradigm in the music industry for artists, fans and advertisers through unprecedented scale and scope.  While some festivals and individual concerts have been streamed, no previous effort compares to one live concert every day, 365 days a year.  In addition to the daily live concert, fans will have access to behind the scenes footage, interviews with select artists and a VOD live concert library.

The Live Nation Channel on Yahoo provides advertisers with a new global platform.  Yahoo and Live Nation are collaborating to create and sell corporate partnerships, which will enhance the fan experience.  Kellogg's is the first to confirm their strategic partnership with the new channel.

The next dimension in music discovery, the Live Nation Channel on Yahoo is scheduled to launch in the summer of 2014.

financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. A reconciliation of each such measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, together with an explanation of why management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, is provided below.

or AOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as operating income (loss) before acquisition expenses (including transaction costs, changes in the fair value of accrued acquisition-related contingent consideration arrangements and acquisition-related severance), depreciation and amortization (including goodwill impairment), loss (gain) on disposal of operating assets and non-cash and certain stock-based compensation expense. The company uses AOI to evaluate the performance of its operating segments. The company believes that information about AOI assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the portfolio of the businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing insights into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. AOI is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of AOI as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain amortizing assets used in generating revenue in the company's business. Accordingly, AOI should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net income (loss), and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, AOI as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Quelle: PR Newswire
 

is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as AOI less maintenance capital expenditures, less net cash interest expense, less cash taxes, less net distributions to noncontrolling interest partners, plus distributions from investments in nonconsolidated affiliates net of contributions to investments in nonconsolidated affiliates. The company uses free cash flow, among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash that is available for purposes other than maintenance capital expenditures. The company believes that information about free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to service debt and make acquisitions. Free cash flow is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of free cash flow as a performance measure is that it does not necessarily represent funds available for operations and is not necessarily a measure of the company's ability to fund its cash needs. Accordingly, free cash flow should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income (loss) and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, free cash flow as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Quelle: PR Newswire
 

is a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as cash and cash equivalents less ticketing-related client funds, less event-related deferred revenue, less accrued expenses due to artists and cash collected on behalf of others for ticket sales, plus event-related prepaids. The company uses free cash as a proxy for how much cash it has available to, among other things, optionally repay debt balances, make acquisitions and fund revenue generating capital expenditures. Free cash is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of free cash as a performance measure is that it does not necessarily represent funds available from operations and it is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. Accordingly, free cash should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, cash and cash equivalents and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, free cash as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Quelle: PR Newswire
