Entertainment One - Takes full ownership of MGC

eOne has announced the proposed acquisition of the remaining 49% of the Mark Gordon Company (MGC) for $209m, financed with a mixture of new equity and debt. We estimate that the deal will be slightly earnings accretive in its first year before an anticipated $7-10m of cost synergies. In our view it is a logical extension of the group’s strategy to build a diversified content business.
