TDGI
Target Development Group Inc. (TDGI) TDGI is the parent company of Hannover House, which is a full service Media Distribution company specializing in the distribution of films for Theatrical, DVD, and VOD release as well as literary titles. TDGI’s CEO, Eric Parkinson, is the former CEO of Hemdale Communications, the very same company responsible for the 1st Terminator Movie, Platoon, Hoosiers, The Last Emporer, and The Highlander. During Eric Parkinson’s five-year contract with Hemdale, he created Hemdale Home Video and managed the business to achieve more than $150-million in revenues through the release of 90 feature films to home video. Parkinson has over twenty-four years of experience as a President or C.E.O. in the Motion Picture, Television, Video and International Film Distribution industries, handling all aspects of acquisition, production, campaign design, publicity, advertising and marketing implementation, as well as the administration and management of support staff of over 100 employees. As a motion picture marketing executive, Parkinson distributed more #1 best selling titles than any other independent distributor in North America, and has more R.I.A.A. Gold or Platinum certified hits than any other marketer. Parkinson has also produced 20 feature films, over 30 made-for-video programs, and released over 800 titles to the U.S. video marketplace. Former # 1 best-selling titles for Parkinson include "Terminator", "Little Nemo" (both BILLBOARD # 1 titles), "Savage Land", "Magic Voyage" and "Highlander: The Gathering" (all Video Business Magazine # 1 titles). Very impressive resume, if I do say so myself.
So what is Parkinson doing for Hannover House? Well, I don’t know if you have ever heard of a little movie star named Emma Roberts, who just happens to be the niece of Julia Roberts, but I know I just saw one of her movies, Valentine’s Day, and I love her! She and Chace Crawford (of Gossip Girl fame) star in a Joel Schumacher film, with one of my favorite 80’s stars, Kiefer Sutherland, as the narrator. That’s just one movie called TWELVE, which was released in theaters late last summer. Hannover House Website.
Additionally TWELVE was listed as the #1 BlueRay the week after Christmas 2010 according to Movieweb.
Numerous items of interest and Press Releases have revealed some interesting aspects to this growing company in the past year. Some include the recent discovery of a new higher profile film currently set for distribution in 2011, and a film currently licensed to Showtime, a distribution pact with Twentieth Century Fox, as well as other films currently in negotiation. In 2010 Hannover House (TDGI) announced that they had plans to produce the 5th Terminator Film in the Franchise, with approval from Pacificor, LLC the current rights holder to the Terminator franchise (Article).
Hannover House additionally announced on January 6th, an additional film project for Wild Oats, which is set to star Shirley McClain, Christina Ricci, Maria Bello, Bill Pullman and John Corbett. (Yes, that’s an impressive list of movie stars!!)
“Wild Oats” has been described as a road-trip comedy and a multi-generational “Thelma & Louise.” Eva, a widow and retired history teacher, enjoys a quiet life in the tiny town of Liberty, Ohio. Everything changes when Eva receives a Social Security check accidentally made out for $900,000 instead of her usual $900. At the not-so-gentle urging of her granddaughter Maddie, Eva deposits the money and takes the chance it offers them to escape from small town life. Their destination is Las Vegas and they have every intention of living it up. But their fantasy is short-lived when they awake to discover that they have become media sensations overnight and fugitives from justice, forced to outwit a trio of conmen, outmaneuver a dogged social security agent Vespucci who has teamed up with Eva’s daughter, Crystal, and outrun the law. What they don’t expect is to be so good at it!

The company (TDGI) has scheduled its Annual Shareholder Meeting for January 15th, at a University of Arkansas Meeting Venue.
(More Information)
Date and Time: Saturday, January 15, 2011, 10:00 am CST
Location: The “Classroom” at the Inn AtCarnall Hall
The University of Arkansas Campus
465 N. Arkansas Ave.
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Agenda items for discussion at the Annual Shareholders meeting include items that would meet requirements foran up-listing to a higher exchange. Here is the Agenda:
1.Management Review of Activities of 2010;
2.Management Presentation on New Releases and New Ventures for 2011;
3.Major Titles Report (new acquisitions & new productions for 2011 and 2012);
4.Accountant’s Review of Results for 2010;
5.Accountant’s Review of P/E 12-31-2008 and P/E 12-31-2009;
6.Election of Board of Directors.
7.Open House and reception after meeting at company’s Offices.
TDGI has been undergoing an accounting audit that would also include a business/property library valuation. The belief is that the current library valuation will show an audited value of more the $23 Million. That value would mean TDGI is currently trading at an even value to the library value. If this holds true, it does not include any forward looking revenue or earnings multiples.
Perform some due diligence of your own and you will see that TDGI from this level could see additional gains based solely on existing and future business possibilities.
Could we be looking at the building blocks of the next Lionsgate or Summit Entertainment? One well performing film could catapult Hannover House to the levels of these Independent Distributors, much like the Twilight Franchise did for Summit Entertainment. With a list of stars that look like Who’s Who in Hollywood and an upcoming Shareholder’s Meeting this weekend, get in while you can, because there is nowhere to go but up, from here!
