What 2,425 means on a settlement sheet

Illustrative face-value gross at three ticket prices and three sell-through levels. Real nets land lower: comps consume capacity without revenue, and per-ticket fees sit between face value and what the show keeps.

Sell-through$30 ticket$45 ticket$65 ticket
100% (2,425 tickets)$72,750$109,125$157,625
85% (2,061 tickets)$61,838$92,756$133,981
70% (1,698 tickets)$50,925$76,388$110,338

Whether a show pencils at these numbers depends on the guarantee and cost base, not the gross — break-even is the number that decides.
