Viewers today have a strong affinity for movies and TV shows, but the traditional linear TV experience, with its fixed schedules and cumbersome remote controls, no longer resonates. The rise of streaming entertainment has fundamentally transformed how we consume media, offering on-demand, personalized content accessible on any screen.
Such transformative shifts are rare. Radio held sway as the dominant home entertainment medium for nearly five decades until the emergence of linear TV in the 1950s and 1960s. The advent of linear video was a monumental leap forward from radio, leading to the rise of major corporations catering to consumer demands over the past six decades. The current era of streaming entertainment, which began in the mid-2000s, is poised to be similarly significant and enduring, owing to the widespread availability and adaptability of the internet across the globe. We aspire to be at the forefront of this streaming entertainment revolution.
The world's leading linear TV networks now offer their programming on-demand through apps that run on phones and smart TVs. These apps, such as Disney+, HBO Max, Paramount+, and BBC iPlayer enable binge viewing and catch-up viewing. Existing linear networks that offer compelling internet apps will generate more viewing and become more valuable. Those networks that fail to develop first-class apps will lose viewing and revenue.
Streaming entertainment is expanding rapidly because of:
Animation holds a timeless allure, captivating audiences with its boundless creativity, imaginative storytelling, and emotional resonance. At Animation MnMtv, we understand why people love to watch animation and cartoons, and why we believe we have a significant advantage over our linear competitors when it comes to launching an animated series or a animated film.

With streaming entertainment, we have the freedom to release content on-demand, allowing viewers to watch at their convenience across a variety of devices. This flexibility enables us to nurture shows that may take time to find their audience, rather than prematurely canceling them due to low ratings.
♦ Commitment to Creative Freedom: Our platform provides a home for more creative storytelling, empowering creators to explore diverse narratives, unconventional formats, and varying run times per episode based on storyline needs. Unlike linear TV, where shows are constrained by rigid time slots and the need for week-to-week recaps, Animation MnMtv offers creators the freedom to push boundaries and innovate without the limitations of traditional broadcasting.
♦ Prudent Investment in Content: By eschewing the traditional pilot model and committing to entire seasons upfront, we demonstrate our confidence in the creative vision of our storytellers.

Animation MnMtv competes for a share of viewers' time and engagement for relaxation and stimulation, amidst various forms of entertainment such as traditional television channels, on-demand content, physical media consumption, alternative streaming platforms, gaming, online browsing, reading, and more. Over time, the landscape of entertainment options continues to evolve and improve.
Our goal is to capture more of our audience's "moments of truth," those instances when they seek relaxation, shared experiences with loved ones, or simply seek entertainment. At these decision points, viewers may opt for Animation MnMtv or explore other alternatives.
Given the expansive nature of the entertainment market, multiple platforms can thrive simultaneously. Just as traditional networks like ABC and NBC have coexisted and competed for decades, Animation MnMtv can flourish alongside other streaming services. In fact, similar to the coexistence of HBO and Netflix, viewers may subscribe to multiple platforms for their unique content offerings.
In some international markets, video piracy poses a significant challenge to legitimate streaming services like Animation MnMtv. Piracy provides free access to a wide range of content and, if it were to become more accessible and socially acceptable, could pose a substantial threat. However, accessible and affordable services like Animation MnMtv aim to mitigate piracy by offering high-quality content and a satisfying viewing experience for little or no cost.
At Animation MnMtv, our operating margin structure is primarily determined from the top down. When planning for any upcoming period, we forecast our revenue and make decisions regarding our expenditure and desired margin for that timeframe. In the face of competitive pressures, particularly in content acquisition, we prioritize prudent spending to maintain a healthy balance between content acquisition and financial sustainability. This approach ensures that we maintain a robust content library without overspending.
Similarly, our marketing budget is carefully managed to optimize our efforts in attracting and retaining members. The ultimate metric of success is membership growth, which is directly influenced by our spending decisions.
As we continue to invest heavily in content expansion, particularly in our original productions, our initial cash outflows exceed content amortization, which impacts our near-term free cash flow compared to profitability. However, we aim to balance this by amortizing content at a pace that aligns with industry standards and viewing patterns, ensuring efficient utilization of our resources while meeting the expectations of our audience.
In the North American market comprising the US, Canada, and Mexico, Animation MnMtv will be establishing a prominent presence, catering to a diverse audience across the region. While Animation MnMtv is not available in Europe yet, its nationwide footprint will span extensively, with a focus on continual service enhancement.
We acknowledge the varying levels of awareness of Animation MnMtv in these new territories, along with cultural nuances and content preferences unique to each region of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Challenges persist in broadband access and advertising infrastructures in certain areas. However, we remain steadfast in our belief in the internet's increasing ubiquity and technological advancements, alongside the universal appeal of compelling storytelling.
To bridge cultural gaps and cater to diverse tastes, Animation MnMtv is actively licensing and producing content worldwide. This enables viewers across the globe, including North America, to enjoy a rich library of animated movies and TV series simultaneously, unbound by traditional business models or outdated restrictions. Moreover, our commitment to creating non-English language originals from Mexico, and other countries like France, Italy, Japan and Brazil ensures a truly global content offering.
As Animation MnMtv continues its global expansion in the coming years, we recognize the rising expectations of consumers and governments alike. We are committed to meeting these expectations and collaborating with policymakers to ensure that regulations evolve to suit the dynamic landscape of streaming entertainment, free from the constraints of outdated linear TV paradigms.
