- Active M&A and artist deals are driving portfolio expansion — recent moves include the Miles Davis centennial launch, acquisition of Bertie Higgins, new agreements with Gladys Knight and T.I., and strategic JVs in India and Jamaica — and management expects M&A to continue at a similar pace with favorable multiples.
- Leverage and earnings pressure: total debt rose to $452.3M (net debt $431.7M), interest expense increased to $6.6M, and net income fell to ~$2.2M (EPS $0.03) largely due to a loss on swaps and higher financing costs.
- Management emphasized long-term tailwinds from streaming price increases and faster growth in emerging markets, which they say offer attractive acquisition multiples and support future revenue growth.
