In Reel Time

Dear Readers,

We are pleased to provide you with our Spring 2012 “NAB” issue of In Reel Time, an original publication by Hadley Partners, Incorporated (HPi) for business owners, senior managers and institutional investors. As we head into our sixth year of publication, our mission remains the same – to provide analysis, relevant financial information and insightful commentary on the media services marketplace.

Loyal readers know that we have distilled the media services landscape into seven sub-sectors: (i) systems (hardware & software); (ii) services; (iii) wireless services & applications; (iv) production, post-production and visual effects; (v) measurement & auditing; (vi) publishing libraries; and (vii) consumer-facing businesses. We consider these sub-sectors to be “first derivative” plays on the media business at large.

The U.S. economy continues its sluggish recovery from the “Great Recession” of 2008-2009. Major stock market indices have reached multi-year highs. Investors are once again “risk on.” And yet, the stock market performance of the core systems and services companies in the media services marketplace illustrate the forces pressuring the 1 industry. Consider the performance of these three equity indices from January 3, 2011 through March 26, 2012:

This underperformance is particularly striking as few investors group these companies together as HPi has done, so this is not simply “the herd” moving out of a sector. It is a universe of companies grappling with the impact of the digital revolution washing through the media business, combined with the impact of a severe financial cycle.

Of course, this underperformance of public stocks does not include other developments such as Eastman ’s bankruptcy filing.

As we prepare to celebrate 13 years as an independent investment banking firm, HPi is a leading financial advisor to middle market companies. We bring a unique voice to In Reel Time – not merely the perspective of a consultant or analyst, but one with extensive M&A and capital raise transactional experience in the sector. We are highly experienced investment bankers, and truly relationship oriented. Please contact us at any time.
