Final Deadline Alert and Update for Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. Stockholders: Investors with Losses in Excess of $100,000 are Encouraged to Immediately Contact Kaskela Law LLC


RADNOR, Pa., June 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaskela Law LLC announces the following update for Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:LYV) investors:

A shareholder class action complaint has been filed against Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (“Live Nation” or the “Company”) on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities between February 23, 2017 and March 30, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

FINAL DEADLINE ALERT:  Investors who purchased Live Nation’s securities during the Class Period may, no later than June 18, 2018, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the investor class.  Live Nation investors are encouraged to contact Kaskela Law LLC (David Seamus Kaskela, Esq.) at (484) 258–1585 or (888) 715–1740 to discuss their important legal rights and options with respect to this action before Monday, June 18, 2018.  Live Nation investors may also visit http://kaskelalaw.com/case/live-nation-entertainment-inc/ for additional information about this action or to submit their information to the firm.

In 2010, Live Nation acquired Ticketmaster Entertainment (“Ticketmaster”).  In connection with that acquisition, Live Nation agreed to an antitrust consent decree with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Consent Decree”) which was designed to prevent the Company from monopolizing live music promotion and ticketing.

On April 1, 2018, The New York Times published an article alleging that the Company had failed to abide by the terms of the Consent Decree aimed to prevent Live Nation from monopolizing the market for live musical performances.  Following this news, shares of the Company’s stock fell $3.97 per share, or 9.4%, to close on April 2, 2018 at $38.17.

The shareholder class action complaint alleges that Live Nation and other defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose to investors: (i) that the Company failed to abide by the terms of the Consent Decree; and (ii) the Company lacked adequate internal controls to prevent a violation of the Consent Decree.  The complaint further alleges that, as a result of the foregoing, investors purchased Live Nation’s securities at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period and sustained significant investment losses.

Live Nation investors are encouraged to contact Kaskela Law LLC (David Seamus Kaskela, Esq.) at (484) 258–1585 or (888) 715–1740 to discuss their important legal rights and options with respect to this action before June 18, 2018.  Live Nation investors may also visit http://kaskelalaw.com/case/live-nation-entertainment-inc/ for additional information about this action or to submit their information to the firm.  Kaskela Law LLC exclusively prosecutes shareholder actions in state and federal courts throughout the country on behalf of investors.  For additional information about Kaskela Law LLC please visit www.kaskelalaw.com.
