Live Nation Entertainment has announced plans to offer $1.3 billion in convertible senior notes due 2031, subject to market conditions.
Live Nation Entertainment has priced its $1.3 billion offering of convertible senior notes due 2031, carrying an interest rate of 2.875%.
The company plans to use the net proceeds, together with additional borrowings, to fully redeem its senior notes due 2026 and repay outstanding balances under existing credit facilities. A portion of the funds will also cover fees and expenses related to the transaction, while remaining proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes, including potential venue investments or further debt repurchases.
The notes correspond to 44,459 shares of Live Nation’s common stock, with an initial conversion price of $1,000 per share. The company has also granted initial purchasers the option to buy up to an additional $100 million in notes within 13 days of the original issuance.
President and CEO Michael Rapino continues to steer Live Nation’s financial restructuring strategy aimed at strengthening the company’s balance sheet and supporting future growth.
