INVESTOR INFO
Entertainment Rights (ER) Plc was founded in 1999, when the company owned the rights to 50 hours of programming. The company has since grown into a successful global children’s and family entertainment specialist and is a fully listed company on the London Stock Exchange with offices in London, New York and Nashville.
In January 2007, ER acquired Classic Media and Big Idea and the acquisition has transformed the company making it a leading force in the global children’s and family entertainment market. It has also enabled the group to further diversify its portfolio of world famous characters and the library now stands at over 3,600 hours of content.
ER is focused on strategically developing its internationally renowned brands across both traditional and digital media platforms. Annual revenues for the group have increased from £1.9 million in 1999 to £68.1 million in 2007, the last reported financial year.
ER is ideally placed to extend and exploit its portfolio of high quality programming with its own global television distribution division, licensing and digital division, and an established home entertainment label, Right Entertainment. The company has successful established relationships with some of the world’s leading broadcasters and consumers products companies including BBC, Five, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, Qubo, Hasbro and Mattel.
