NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma adjustments give effect to the disposition as if it had occurred as of September 30, 2007 for the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and as of January 1, 2006 for the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations.
(A)
Adjustment reflects the elimination of the assets and liabilities included in the balance sheet of Live Nation for its interests in the Theatrical Business as of September 30, 2007. The cash and cash equivalents adjustment primarily represents cash received for ticket sales in advance of the event. The adjustment to goodwill includes a write-off of goodwill allocated to the Company’s Global Theater segment. The goodwill write-off was determined using the purchase price as the fair value of the Theatrical Business relative to the estimated fair value of the Global Theater segment.
(B)
Adjustment represents the estimated gain on the disposition as if the transaction occurred as of September 30, 2007.
(C)
Adjustment reflects the elimination of the results of operations of the Theatrical Business for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
(D)
Adjustment reflects the proceeds, net of certain adjustments and estimated transaction fees and expenses, from the disposition that were retained to meet operating and investing cash requirements.
(E)
Adjustment represents the tax effects related to the reversal of tax on certain profitable Canadian operations. The pro forma adjustments have no effect on Live Nation’s current or deferred United States income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the nine months ended September 30, 2007. For both periods presented, the pro forma adjustments increase Live Nation’s United States tax losses for which no current tax benefit may be recognized. The pro forma adjustments also increase Live Nation’s net deferred tax assets and corresponding valuation allowances by equal amounts, resulting in no net effect on deferred tax expense.
