IRVINE, Calif., April 28, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- "Companies with established distribution models are looking to broaden the scope of content streamed through their existing channels," said SmallCap Sentinel analyst D.R. Clark. "By adding more titles and intellectual property to their offerings, even smaller independent film and television companies can compete. In fact, their independent nature and perhaps even their corporate agility may allow them to profit in ways larger, more entrenched competitors cannot."
"Just this week, Peace Arch Entertainment Group Inc. (AMEX:PAE), a fast growing independent film and television company announced an agreement in which they increased their library of licensed films by 500 titles," Clark noted. "Not only does this diversification help to bolster their revenue streams directly, but it also creates cross-pollination to their existing titles."
Peace Arch Entertainment produces and acquires feature film and television programs for distribution to worldwide markets. Its Peace Arch Films division markets and licenses theatrical films oriented towards the major international film festivals such as Cannes, Venice and Toronto. The company's Archetype Film label focuses on projects in the horror, thriller and action genres. Peace Arch Television specializes in the licensing of the Company's own productions and third-party projects to Canadian and international broadcasters, cable and satellite companies. Peace Arch Home Entertainment, under the KaBOOM! Entertainment Inc. banner is one of the leading distributors of DVDs and related products in Canada.
