Network President Curtis White stated: "Profitability this quarter was driven by the re-licensing of a slate of library titles in the U.S. and the production and pre-production of six feature documentaries. This re-licensing drove record distribution revenues for the quarter and triggered an additional slate order of three new feature documentaries, to be produced in 2024. Most importantly, this sale validates our business model and the increasing value of our evergreen IP library."
