Thunderbird Entertainment Group Inc. (TSXV:TBRD) (OTCQX:THBRF)
(“Thunderbird” or the “Company”), a global award-winning,
full-service multiplatform production, distribution and rights
management company, today announced an update from its strategic
review process.
Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement between Thunderbird and
Voss Capital, LLC (“Voss”), which is detailed in the Company’s
January 19, 2023 news release, Thunderbird formed an advisory
committee, composed of three directors (including two of the
independent directors put forward by Voss) and a Voss-appointed
non-voting observer (the “Strategic Advisory Committee”), to assess
the Company’s capital allocation strategy and evaluate all
opportunities to maximize value creation for ultimate
recommendation to the Board. As disclosed in its May 15, 2023, news
release, Thunderbird engaged ACF Investment Bank (“ACF”), among
other things, to aid its ongoing strategic review process.
Findings from the Company’s strategic review confirm Thunderbird
is a premium asset within the industry with a solid reputation and
trusted relationships that generate ongoing, repeat, and new
content production opportunities. With no debt and a healthy
balance sheet, Thunderbird’s mix of service and intellectual
property (“IP”) productions put the Company in a strong position,
providing extensive opportunities in animation and unscripted
genres. The Company’s newly launched scripted group, alongside its
established consumer products and distribution teams, further
support the Company’s continued growth.
To maximize shareholder value, the Company’s key focus is on
several exciting IP and service productions on the horizon.
Thunderbird is committed to enhancing shareholder value and is
looking at a variety of opportunities, including potentially
initiating a share buyback program. Thunderbird remains open to
pursuing a liquidity event and the Company’s Board and Management
team remain dedicated to capitalizing on opportunities for all
stakeholders.
“Pursuing a liquidity event at the right time is an important
consideration to be true to everyone who is invested in
Thunderbird. Our Company has excellent financial projections,
several exciting projects to announce, and, at year end, was
working on 10 owned IP productions. We are well positioned for
growth and look forward to all opportunities presented to us,” said
Jennifer Twiner McCarron, Thunderbird CEO and Chair.
