Notes to Editors:
The Group, founded in 1994, has extensive experience in producing content in a variety of genres, including youth programming, music, entertainment, children's programming, extreme sports and drama
The Group has good revenue visibility as a high proportion of its budgeted revenue is contracted with broadcasters
The market for independent television production companies in the Nations and Regions has grown following quotas from the regulator Ofcom, which require that, depending on the broadcaster, between 10 per cent. and 50 per cent. of qualifying programming hours must be sourced from outside the M25 boundary
Boomerang is ranked in the top five independent television production companies, by revenue, in the Nations and Regions according to the Broadcast Survey (Nations and Regions) 2007.
The Board's strategy is both to achieve strong organic growth by leveraging the Group's existing customer base coupled with strategic acquisitions, with a view to becoming a major supplier to UK networks looking to satisfy their Nations and Regions quotas
Boomerang is well placed to lead the consolidation of regional independent production companies across the UK. Target companies which meet the acquisition criteria will have a strong track record, which will assist the Group to grow further, outside Wales
