Forward Guidance
Vivid Seats anticipates Marketplace GOV, Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA for the year ending December 31, 2024 to be:
Positive Outlook
- Marketplace GOV in the range of $4.2 billion to $4.5 billion
- Revenues in the range of $810.0 million to $840.0 million
- Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $160.0 million to $170.0 million*
- Additional detail around the 2024 outlook will be available on the fourth quarter 2023 earnings call.
- Reflects a revision from our initial Adjusted EBITDA outlook provided in November 2023.
Challenges Ahead
- We calculate forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA based on internal forecasts that omit certain information that would be included in forward-looking net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
- We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to forward-looking net income because the timing and/or probable significance of certain excluded items that have not yet occurred and are outside of our control is inherently uncertain and unavailable without unreasonable efforts.
- Such items could have a significant and unpredictable impact on our future GAAP financial results.
- Chief Technology Officer Appointment
- Today, Vivid Seats announced the appointment of Stefano Langenbacher as Chief Technology Officer.
