You Don't Have To Be A Genius To See The Value In This Potentially Marvelous Opportunity
Dec. 6, 2018 11:26 AM ET
Summary
GNUS undiscovered low float microcap that could be ready to break out after not one but two recent hits.
One of my most successful investments was building a position in Marvel Enterprises when they first came out of bankruptcy and I see a similar setup with GNUS.
I anticipate 2019 to be a transformational year leading to significant revenue gains and stocks price appreciation regardless of what the NASDAQ or SPY do for the year.
GNUS has a couple of properties to reveal that could provide even more value in the near future.
Every year I put out a speculative stock to watch for the members over at Alpha Wolf Trading and sometimes more than one. They have included names like EKSO, RMBL, TUSK, HEAR, all of which provided us with some pretty nice returns and a couple of them are still in play. I have decided on this years pick to share with everyone and it is GNUS.
Genius Brands is a global media company that develops, produces, markets, licenses and distributes children's entertainment properties.
What makes them different and compelling from the rest is their mission to deliver "content with a purpose". They have had a few relatively mild successes with titles like award-winning toddler brand Baby Genius; adventure comedy children's series Thomas Edison's Secret Lab, and Warren Buffett's Secret Millionaires Club, created with and starring iconic investor Warren Buffett. However, none of these properties have hit blockbuster status and for that reason they have not made any money. This could all be about to change as they have not one but two properties that could be on the cusp of providing significant revenues and royalties.
Before I go into the details on GNUS I wanted to share with you my experience in Marvel Enterprises. I grew up on Marvel comic books and I loved them. When I saw that Marvel had just come out of bankruptcy many years ago and there were rumors of a Spiderman movie and I started buying the stock at a buck. I built my position over a period of time buying more at 3 and 5 and 10. All the while Marvel kept producing one box office hit after another.
The famous Jim Cramer would get calls on Marvel for his lightning round and he would consistently hit the sell, sell, sell, button with it being his contention that Marvel was going to run out of blockbuster characters to do films with.
Just after that they came out with Iron Man one of their lesser known characters and they smashed the estimates with a huge hit. I knew I was onto a winner early with Marvel when the first Spiderman movie came out and I walked into a Walmart and all I could see down the cereal isle was Spidermans face.. there were lunchboxes and clothes, toys and all this Spiderman stuff everywhere throughout Walmart and it hit me. Marvel was going to be raking in a ton of what I like to call "mailbox money"! They just sat back and let the royalty checks come rolling in, then took them out of the mail box and cashed them in. It was a pretty sweet business model. It was such a good model that Disney wound up buying them for 55 dollars a share. Jim Cramer thought it was a brilliant move by Disney. What was funny to me was that he didn't like the stock when it was 3 5 or 15 but loved it when Disney bought it for 55.
I am not suggesting that GNUS will have the same type of success as Marvel but what I can say is they have two compelling properties Llama Llama on Netflix which was just picked up for its second season and Rainbow Rangers which just launched on Nick Jr. in November.
Andy Heyward the CEO of GNUS has been creating cartoon hits for most of his life and is an Emmy ward winning creator of children's entertainment. He has been involved in and created some huge hits over the years with titles like "Scooby Doo, Flintstones, Jetsons, Smurfs, Yogi Bear 1982, he co-created Inspector Gadget and during the following years he has produced over 5,000 episodes of award-winning children’s programs, most of which shows and brands are household names, including Inspector Gadget, The Real Ghostbusters, Alvin and the Chipmunks, G.I. Joe, Hello Kitty, Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, Captain Planet, Teddy Ruxpin, Sailor Moon, Madeline, Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego, Liberty's Kids"
That is a pretty astounding resume of some significant hits that I am sure everyone recognizes.
Fast Forward June 2020 and Kartoon Channel is just about to go Live

Read it again,get a Manifying Glass so you will se the semicolon and coma.
We have $9.75 million of debt; in excess of $45 million of cash,
Better Focus of what's coming!!!
Our balance sheet is strong – We have $9.75 million of debt; in excess of $45 million of cash, significant receivables from a diverse array of companies across our industry with strong credit profiles, and low overhead.
Today, Genius Brands has enough cash on our balance sheet to meet our existing obligations and execute on our business plan for at least 60 months, and still fund continuing new production and content acquisitions each year.
Conveniently, last week when one of the short sellers stated we weren’t at the same revenue point as one of our Canadian-based competitors, he neglected to mention that the other company has more than 60 times ($600 million) as much debt as Genius Brands.
We think identifying this omission is important to understanding the whole story.
Finally, to clear up market confusion that we believe has been generated as a result of one short seller’s report, the shelf registration on form S-3 filed on June 4th was related to our capital raise in March 2020. We registered the resale of shares underlying the warrants we issued in March, and the S-3 filing does not in any way represent a new capital raise, nor is it related to recent changes in our stock price.
This is My New Netflix...I Shall Call KidFlix.
The Truth shall Set GNUS PPS Rise!!!
Peace!!!
GNUS Genius Brands International Responds to Misleading Short Seller Criticisms
https://www.gnusbrands.com/news-media/press-releases/detail/1067/genius-brands-international-responds-to-misleading-short
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Genius Brands International, Inc. “Genius Brands” (NASDAQ:GNUS) today released the following statement from CEO and Chairman Andy Heyward, in response to recent short seller criticisms published online and on certain social media platforms:
“Genius Brands has carefully reviewed the report and social media comments published by two short seller funds last week. These materials contain numerous misleading statements, omissions of key facts, and red herrings. More importantly, the short sellers themselves demonstrate a fundamental misunderstanding of the unique potential of Genius Brands and our position of strength given the current dynamics of our industry.
It is also important to keep in mind how these short sellers make money and what they are trying to do. Make no mistake, their intention – and indeed how they make their money – is to manipulate the stock price of companies like ours in order to profit at the expense of other shareholders. Their interests are directly opposed to shareholders’ interests. In contrast, as one of the largest investors in the Company myself, my interests are fully aligned with those of my fellow shareholders – and will remain so.
With that in mind, I submit the following:
We are well positioned to create substantial value – With Kartoon Channel! launching on June 15 and to be available in more than 100 million U.S. TV households and 200 million mobile devices, we are positioned to be one of the preeminent ad-supported kids’ digital networks. The service referred to as a ‘Netflix for kids’ is made even stronger by the distinct fact that it is a free service. There are no subscriptions fees, it is ad-supported. Further, we do not anticipate being impacted by COVID-19. The business of cartoons has historically had an appeal that is timeless, and is a rare asset class which has historically been resistant to typical market forces (e.g., the price of gold, oil, interest rates, elections, etc.). While the rest of Hollywood is grinding to a stop during the COVID-19 crisis, we're creating new products for an audience that is growing now out of the new technologies and streaming services. This is especially true at a time when there are more kids at home and in front of their devices during the pandemic. We believe we will see robust and accelerated revenue growth coming forth in this arena for the foreseeable future.
Our balance sheet is strong – We have $9.75 million of debt; in excess of $45 million of cash, significant receivables from a diverse array of companies across our industry with strong credit profiles, and low overhead. Today, Genius Brands has enough cash on our balance sheet to meet our existing obligations and execute on our business plan for at least 60 months, and still fund continuing new production and content acquisitions each year. Conveniently, last week when one of the short sellers stated we weren’t at the same revenue point as one of our Canadian-based competitors, he neglected to mention that the other company has more than 60 times ($600 million) as much debt as Genius Brands. We think identifying this omission is important to understanding the whole story. Finally, to clear up market confusion that we believe has been generated as a result of one short seller’s report, the shelf registration on form S-3 filed on June 4th was related to our capital raise in March 2020. We registered the resale of shares underlying the warrants we issued in March, and the S-3 filing does not in any way represent a new capital raise, nor is it related to recent changes in our stock price.
The short sellers’ criticisms of our Programs highlight their own industry ignorance – Llama Llama is an industry-recognized tremendous asset that we have on great terms, which are mutually beneficial with the IP’s author/book publisher and ourselves. We are also confident in the appeal of the soon to be launched Stan Lee’s Superhero Kindergarten, one of the last creations of Stan Lee, creator of Spider-Man, X-Men, Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, Thor, Fantastic Four, Black Panther, and the Avengers, among others. Similarly, we are happy with the outlook for Rainbow Rangers. The fact is that the show’s airings on Nick Jr. have been scaled back while we are currently producing new episodes, which is a standard industry practice known as “resting.” We expect the airings to ramp back up in August when the new episodes are completed and this will be timed with the launch of toys from Mattel hitting the shelves of Walmart in August. We are confident Nick Jr.’s interests are aligned with ours – after all, they have a stake in the consumer products merchandising royalties related to this asset.
The track record of our leadership team speaks volumes – Our senior management comes largely from the Walt Disney Company, DreamWorks Animation, and Hasbro Toys, and has been responsible for many of the biggest and most profitable hits in children's television history, as well as toy and consumer product programs generating Billions of dollars of program sales and royalty income. The management team and board have had creative, licensing, production, broadcasting, and sales roles in some of the biggest animated hits in children’s history, including Lion King, Toy Story, Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, Power Rangers, My Little Pony, Spider-Man, Batman, X-Men, Transformers, Muppet Babies, Fraggle Rock, Real Ghostbusters, and Inspector Gadget. Collectively, we have more than 150 years of experience in children’s media, and have helped generate literally tens of billions of dollars of content and consumer products sales.
Further, last Friday, we announced the addition of two of our industry’s most accomplished executives overseeing the new channel: Margaret Loesch as Executive Chairman of Kartoon Channel! (former President of Marvel Entertainment, FOX Kids, and Henson Television), and David Neuman as Chief Content Officer of Kartoon Channel! (former President of Walt Disney Television). Margaret was founding CEO of FOX Kids, and built it from zero to the most successful and profitable kids program service, and what was eventually sold to the Walt Disney Company for $5.5 billion dollars. None of us claim to be experts at ‘short selling’. But we also think it’s a stretch for short sellers to claim to know more about this industry than those of us who have been industry leaders and spent decades making money for investors while building some of the sector’s most successful brands and companies.
Genius Brands is a long-term growth story – We have a number of hit brands and shows today – but we are even more excited about what is coming, and the synergies with the newly announced Kartoon Channel!. We have over 450 licensed products contracted (with advances and guarantees) to come into the marketplace in the coming months. Our pipeline of new animated products, soon to be announced, is robust and pre-sold with significant brand equity. Our partners, licensees, and retail customers include Alibaba, Amazon, Mattel, Netflix, Target and Walmart, among others. Rainbow Rangers toys from Mattel, based on our hit series on Nick Jr., will hit Walmart stores in August beginning with a multipack of Rainbow Rangers figures. Over 350 other licensed consumer product SKUs are due as well, including publishing, room décor, bedding, footwear, apparel, health and beauty, bicycles, toothpaste, touring shows, among others, some of which are now already on Amazon.com, Walmart.com, and Target.com.
Above all else, we are focused on long-term value. After working with Warren Buffett for 25 years and producing the children’s animated series with Warren to teach financial literacy (Warren Buffett’s Secret Millionaires Club), I've learned to focus on the importance of the basics: asset creation and value-building for our shareholders.
On a personal note, I have not sold a single share, and in fact, have materially increased my holdings in the Company in the last two years. We take the views of all our investors seriously, and we and our board are committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance and transparency.
The Company is not suggesting that any particular trading price for the Company’s securities is appropriate, whether in the short- or long-term. However, we would like to seek to clarify certain facts as it relates to the short seller information that has been put into the marketplace.
Finally, the Company reserves the right to take appropriate legal action against Hindenburg Research and Citron Research, as we will always do what we can to protect our shareholders’ interests.
