From 2021 to 2024 Live Nation’s balance sheet shows a clear expansion of scale and a steady repair of its capital position. Total assets rose from $14,402M in 2021 to $19,639M in 2024 (a gain of ~36%), with the largest year-over-year increases occurring in 2022–2023 (+14–16% each year) and a much smaller rise in 2024 (+3%). Total liabilities followed a similar upward path, increasing from $14,985M to $19,466M over the same period, but liabilities grew slightly more slowly than assets in 2023–2024 which allowed equity to recover. Stockholders’ equity moved from a deficit of $‑583M in 2021 to a small positive $173M in 2024. As a ratio of assets, equity improved from about ‑4.0% in 2021 to +0.9% in 2024, reflecting reduced balance-sheet leverage and a return from the negative-equity position that persisted through 2023. The biggest improvements occurred in 2022–2023 when asset growth outpaced liabilities (consistent with recovery/expansion after the pandemic and/or retained earnings or capital actions), while 2024 shows consolidation—modest asset growth and only small additional liabilities—yielding a positive but still relatively thin equity buffer. Note: the 2025 row contains zeros and appears to be missing data.
