Business Summary
StubHub is the fan's ticket marketplace, enabling customers to buy and sell tickets at fair market value to a vast selection of sporting, concert, theater and other live entertainment events, even those that are "sold out." The company's unique open marketplace, dedicated solely to tickets, provides all fans the choice to buy or sell their tickets in a safe, convenient, and highly reliable environment. All transactions are processed and delivered via StubHub's patent-pending FanNetworkSM ticket delivery service, supported by seven-day toll free customer service, and backed by the industry-first FanProtectSM Guarantee. Company partners include sports teams in the NFL, NBA, NHL, leading NCAA athletic programs and media companies including AOL. StubHub is headquartered in San Francisco. StubHub was privately held until 2007, when it was acquired by publicly traded Internet e-commerce company eBay (see PrivCo M&A Table: StubHub for details). StubHub's revenue growth has been fueled by an increasing volume of ticket sales, despite a decreasing average ticket price between 2008 and 2011.
