By adding captive, in-house animation production, this firm is expecting to drive significant cost synergies and drive increasing shareholder value, by producing and bringing new brands to market.
Genius Brands International, Inc. (Nasdaq: GNUS) today announced it has completed the acquisition of WOW! Unlimited Media Inc. (TSX-V: WOW), creating an end-to-end animation ecosystem, including highly profitable titles.
This acquisition is expected to provide immediate and continuing financial benefits with strong future revenue—a 31% increase over the same period last year is expected.
