One poster said Genius Networks which is made up of the other cartoon series haven't really brought in much revenue and they don't see that increasing. OKay, lets look at that.

Genius Networks
2017

The Genius Brands Network generates revenue in the form of either flat rate promotions, advertising impressions served, or our share of subscriptions to our channels. Revenues from the Genius Brands Network increased 15% over the prior year as the Network’s household reach grew thus increasing the number of impressions served as well as the introduction of the SVOD platform on Amazon Prime.

2018

Advertising sales are generated on the Kid Genius Cartoon Channel in the form of either flat rate promotions or advertising impressions served. Advertising sales increased by $179,220, or 462%, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 primarily due to the addition of new distribution partners, increased advertising impressions served and additional ad campaigns in 2018. This was a result of our efforts to continue to grow this area of the business through new distribution channels and with new partners.

2019 ? We shall see.


And then July 30, 2019 "DISH Joins a Network Distribution Roster Reaching 80 Million U.S. Households Via Sling TV, Amazon, Comcast, Apple TV, Roku, Cox, Tubi, Noggin, Philo, Fubo and Xumo"

One can safely say that will boost it in further in Q4 and 2019 total and more importantly it can keep growing. No, not a serious amount $ wise as of end of 2018 but its growing, let just see what it is in 2019 before we make blanket statements that it isn't worth a toss and isn't an increasing revenue stream.

This stock/company isn't about any one revenue stream it is about what they estimate and if the past 4 months is any indication will be a reality a 350+ Sku licensing revenue stream, and increasing $$ amounts Genius will get for their cartoon series 3rd 4th 5th seasons as popularity grows so does the price they get paid to produce it (sell it for).

That goes into another area will they/are they going to get more for their series going forward, that goes without saying especially in the total beast that Llama Llama is becoming.

Llama Llama/Rainbow Rangers gets revenue from

Television & Home Entertainment revenue is generated from distribution of our properties for broadcast on television, VOD, or SVOD in domestic and international markets and the sale of DVDs for home entertainment through our partners.

VOD (Video on Demand) I don't give this category huge revenue numbers like a DVD but it is still a revenue stream and that is what tis game is all about getting hundred's of revenues streams then 1000's for the company in years to come. There are kids born every day and kids turning the age where they watch tv everyday.

Llama Llama/Rainbow Rangers are as of August available on

YouTube which I don't count as a significant amount of cash just another revenue stream, have no clue what YouTube pays per view etc. but its another stream.

Now this says Member since 2017 but this is a misnomer as views prior to August 2019 were pretty much nonexistent. Where I counted views from was this page Where they started in earnest August 9, 2019.

Now these channels are above and beyond the episode VOD's for YouTube.

Again I haven't a clue what Youtube pays for views they have almost 4 million between them from August which is good and is only going to grow, so another revenues stream thrown in the sack that was not there prior to August 2019.

Whomever did not read this article, needs to in its entirety.

I have no idea what the "impressions pay like YouTube is it 1/2 a penny a penny a 1/4 a penny who knows but it and all the other new revenue streams add up to a shit ton I can tell you that.
