\nVenu Holding Corporation (\u201cVENU\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) (NYSE American: VENU), the visionary owner, operator, and builder of upscale live music venues and premium hospitality destinations, announced today that it has initiated an independent nationwide real estate portfolio review performed by third party appraisers. The review includes the completed appraisal of the properties comprising the Company\u2019s Colorado Springs, Colorado campus at $186 million, a $58 million (or 46%) increase above its cost basis as recorded on its balance sheet as of June 30, 2025. These appraisals used the cost basis, income, and comparable sales approaches to valuation and, after reconciliation, came to the appraised values of the properties. These approaches to valuation are commonly used approaches to value for appraisal of commercial properties, as opposed to assigning a valuation on the properties based solely on the cost basis of the properties.<\/p>\n
\nVENU\u2019s Colorado Springs Campus includes the Ford Amphitheater, the new Roth Sea & Steak Hospitality Center, the Bourbon Brothers Smokehouse & Tavern Restaurant, The Phil Long Music Hall and parking facilities, among other related assets. In the coming weeks, the Company expects to receive a completed set of appraisals to include its other operating property in Gainesville, Georgia and its projects currently under development in McKinney and El Paso, Texas and Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. VENU\u2019s proposed projects in Centennial, Colorado and Houston, Texas will also be independently valued. Final decisions on those projects are expected to come later this quarter.<\/p>\n
\nThe appraisals serve as critical evidence to support the potential intrinsic value VENU brings to the communities in which it operates and helps to substantiate the Company\u2019s disciplined approach to growth and portfolio management. Rooted in public-private partnerships, fractional ownership opportunities, and strategic sale leasebacks, VENU\u2019s business model strives to transform real estate assets into engines of economic growth, long-term shareholder value, and next-generation entertainment campuses.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur model is designed for longevity and scalability. Each venue we build is a premier real estate asset that drives recurring revenue from live entertainment and hospitality, creating a powerful foundation for sustained growth. The appraisal of the Colorado Springs Campus further validates the strength of our model, demonstrating how our assets, partnerships, and relentless fan-engagement strategy have the potential to translate into long-term financial performance,\u201d said J.W. Roth, Founder and CEO of VENU.<\/p>\n
\nIt is important to understand that the appraisal of the Colorado Springs Campus takes into account, among other factors, the valuation of the Company\u2019s real estate and developments at a specific point in time (in this case, as of October 8, 2025), and the appraised value is subject to (and likely to) change at any time, whether it increases or decreases, and such changes could be caused by macro and micro factors over which we have no control. The appraisal of the Colorado Springs Campus is only an estimate of its value as to the date of the appraisal and based only on the specific appraisal methodologies and should not be relied upon as a measure of its realized value or the value at which any property could be sold to a third party. Other appraisal methodologies may yield materially different appraised value. Furthermore, the appraised value of the Colorado Springs Campus differs from the values assigned to it under generally accepted accounting principles in the United Stated (\u201cGAAP\u201d), which require the values of the properties to be valued at their cost basis for financial presentation purposes, and therefore the appraised values represent an unaudited measure that may not represent fair value, as defined under GAAP, and such values and appraisals are not, and will not be, subject to audit or other review procedures by our outside independent accountants.<\/p>\n
\nThe opinions expressed in the appraisal are based on estimates and forecasts that are prospective in nature and subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Events may occur that could cause the performance of the Colorado Springs Campus to materially differ from the estimates utilized by the appraiser, such as changes in the economy, interest rates, capitalization rates, the financial strength of the live-music and entertainment industries, and the behavior of event attendees, investors, lenders, and municipalities. The Company reviews each appraisal of its properties to confirm that the information provided to the appraiser is accurately reflected in the appraisal, but it does not validate the methodologies, inputs, and professional judgment utilized by the certified appraiser.<\/p>\n
