Penelope Keith's Coastal Villages16 Dec 2017 11:23
Was a new production which began on More 4 on thursday night, I had not known about this being in the pipeline, so was surpised, but at the same time thought great - More revenue for Reef & ultimately more revenue for Zinc, There are still more productions in the pipeline that are due to be aired at some point. If that was not known about are there others that are not known about !! Its the Broadcaster who ultimately decide when to air the productions, They commission the production company to produce a production & the production company get paid in stages. ( like any product that is ordered, it is paid for on passing to the buyer) Ultimately its the Broadcaster who buys the production - how popular the production is, is another matter like a Brand, the Penelope Keith brand seems to be working, similar to the Michael portillo Brand for his Railway shows, & this must be good news for Reef. (together with there other brands, that are still being produced, that looks good for growth in revenue & brand value) Its also worth noting that revenue is also gained from repeats & from sales to other networks, although the boadcaster commissions the show, the producer still retains some rights over future revenue especially when sold after a certain time to other networks, globally, (netflix etc) so in effect the productions can be sold again to other broadcasters in other countries producing more revenue from something that has allready been produced & sold, & paid for, Zinc have a department dealing with this. How many products can you produce & sell more than once ?
So if there are productions being commissioned that we do not know about, then that's got to be good news as the revenue is going to be much higher than we anticipated, Note though - ( " Be careful, its probably best to be safe & wait for the end of year figures to come out, & then mull it over & take that chance that zincs SP will be the same as it is today, if its not & its gone up then its got to be a good thing, so then will be a good time to fill your boots ! )
I read an interesting article on investment the other day " Individual investors make bad market-timing decisions, they buy high & sell low , sometimes they miss out due to impatience" . "Loss aversion, means most investors hate losing money, more than they love making gains of the same value. As a consequence they missed the subsequent recovery in share prices" Fear & Greed are the emotions that drive markets down & up, as much as economic facts, because the participants are humans & subject to herd mentality.
Good luck all DYOR
