M&A in the Media Sector The media sector has witnessed significant M&A activity in recent years, driven by the rapid evolution of technology, shifting consumer preferences, and the need for media companies to adapt to the digital age. Key trends include consolidation among traditional media companies, acquisitions of digital media assets, and strategic partnerships to expand reach and capabilities. Notable transactions in 2022-2024 include: Warner Bros. Discovery: The merger of WarnerMedia and Discovery in 2022 created a global media conglomerate with a diverse portfolio of content across film, television, and streaming. Walmart's Acquisition of Vizio: In 2024, Walmart acquired Vizio, a leading smart TV manufacturer, aiming to strengthen its position in the advertising and streaming market. Smaller-scale acquisitions: Numerous smaller deals focused on acquiring niche digital media companies, ad tech firms, and content creators to enhance specific capabilities or expand into new markets. These transactions highlight the ongoing transformation of the media industry, as companies seek to capitalize on emerging opportunities and secure their future in a rapidly changing landscape.

We're distributing our May report ahead of schedule, as one of our Canadian holdings – Nuvei Corp. – recently received a takeover offer, and we wanted to comment directly on it. The proposed transaction highlights a couple of shortcomings within the Canadian market, while at the same time reaffirming our proactive approach to engaging with the companies in which we invest. Hopefully, this report will provide insight into another part of our investment philosophy and the current state of the Canadian equity market. #canadianmarket #markets #equitymarket #nuvei #finance #investing #wealthmanagement #dixonmitchellinsights

It will be fascinating to see how companies adapt to the new requirements and what this means for future listings – - Will we see fewer potential listings but stronger companies? - Will we see companies adapt to meet the new $10 million threshold? - Will selling shareholders continue to play a large role? Let’s discuss! Lucosky Brookman LLP – Relationship Focused. Results Driven.
