Thunderbird earned its spot with three-year
revenue growth of 158%
Robust production slate including new and
returning series drives momentum
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, is pleased to announce that the
Company has been included on The Globe and Mail’s fifth-annual
ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies, placing No. 263 of 425
companies. Thunderbird’s impressive three-year revenue growth of
158% secured its position on the list. This recognition is further
testament to the trusted reputation that Thunderbird has
established through its high-quality, premium content.
“This year’s Report on Business magazine’s list of Top Growing
Companies shows how innovative ideas always rise to the top,
perhaps even more so in times of uncertainty,” says Andrew
Saunders, CEO of The Globe and Mail. “The Globe and Mail
congratulates this year’s winners for meeting and surpassing those
economic challenges.”
Canada’s Top Growing Companies is a report that ranks Canadian
companies on three-year revenue growth. Launched in 2019, it aims
to bring the accomplishments of innovative businesses in Canada to
the forefront. The full list of 2023 winners along with editorial
coverage is published in the October issue of Report on Business
magazine and is available online here.
“With solid industry relationships and award winning content,
Thunderbird Entertainment is growing steadily,” says Jennifer
Twiner McCarron, CEO of Thunderbird Entertainment. “This
recognition affirms the success of our strategies to push our
company further and Thunderbird continues to make solid progress on
our path to becoming the next major global studio.”
Thunderbird’s robust production slate is among the factors
contributing to the Company’s growth. Recently, Thunderbird
celebrated the premieres of several series produced by Atomic
Cartoons (“Atomic”), including a new season of Marvel's Spidey and
His Amazing Friends on Disney Channel and Disney Junior (US); Young
Love on Max (US); Chapter 5 of My Little Pony: Make Your Mark on
Netflix; and The Mindful Adventures of Unicorn Island for Headspace
on Headspace’s YouTube channel. In addition, more episodes of
Atomic’s hit show Princess Power are coming to Netflix on October
23, and upcoming premieres include LEGO Jurassic Park: The
Unofficial Retelling on Peacock and LEGO Marvel Avengers: Code Red,
which is set to debut October 27 on Disney+. New TV special Rocket
Saves the Day, which is Atomic’s intellectual property (“IP”), will
also drop on PBS Kids on December 26, 2023.
Thunderbird’s Unscripted team, Great Pacific Media (“GPM”), has
also been busy with several series at various stages of production.
GPM recently debuted Season 12 of Highway Thru Hell on Discovery
Canada – this series is one of the longest-running, unscripted
series in Canada, and also celebrated the premiere of Styled Season
2 on Hulu in the US. GPM also has an array of shows scheduled to
premiere in 2024. These include Season 2 of Deadman’s Curse on The
History Channel; Season 2 of Reginald the Vampire on SYFY; and
Season 2 of Styled on HGTV in Canada, among others. All unscripted
productions are original content and owned IP that is created in
house.
Thunderbird's distribution label has also sold Season 1 of the
CBC Kids/Sky Kids preschool series Mittens & Pants to
international buyers including France TV and Warner Bros.
Discovery.
“From animated to scripted and unscripted, we are proud to
further Thunderbird’s industry-leading position through our new and
returning series across a range of top media platforms,” adds
Twiner McCarron. “We’re excited to build on the momentum we have
achieved with a portfolio that meets the demand for high-quality,
diverse content.”
Thunderbird Entertainment employs 1,300-plus team members across
four locations in Vancouver, Ottawa, Toronto and Los Angeles.
