Here is a short trading week of the investment philosophy of Thanksgiving. To purchase shares in the company, you can see a huge impact from the family to the movies this week. Although some young people will go to see "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" and adults will see a "Skyfall" families with children will want to see the rise of the Guardian, "the latest movie from DreamWorks Animation (DWA).
The rise of the "guardian" is a children's book based on William Joyce. Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, Jack Frost and the tooth fairy story revolves around the fight against evil, and away from children. DreamWorks hopes in their hands, it can be turned into many sequels and by-products, it has a potential sleeper.
"Guardian of the rise of two new movies open this week also. The Rise will open on November 21, 2002 (Wednesday), "Red Dawn" and "Young Pi". "Red Dawn" will be displayed on the 2600 screen, not competition rise on the same target audience as it is for adults. "Young Pi," which will be displayed on the 2700 screen, is rated PG and can fight for some families at the box office. A preview of the film does not look very weird and theme elements oriented, for me, the kids. The rise will open the 3500 screen's interests, but also faces competition from existing large "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" and "Skyfall." (Screen count from the Box Office Mojo website).
I think that the rise could be the dark horse of the festival. Movie to see some of marketable characters together in the same movie. To the childhood hero Avenger a style combination can create DreamWorks hit. If you look at the next Christmas, there is not much animation or Home Edition in the remainder of 2012. Strong reviews or word of mouth, so that the film in theaters for a long period of time, has brought a lot of box office revenue, additional benefits, as well as 3-D sales.
Thanksgiving home movies, movie studios usually gold extended by one week, to see the kids have no school, many adults have more time to work. Last year, the family film "Arthur Christmas" released around the same time at the box office in North America, $ 46 million flop holiday. All time top three Thanksgiving opening of the movie "Toy Story", "tangled" and "Enchanted."
"Rise of the Guardians" has been set up in China, it is $ 3.1 million this past weekend. The Movie expand to eight countries, including the United States and Russia, this week. In the choice of domestic and international IMAX (IMAX) theater, the film will also be released. The film will be in the 14 states and two provinces a total of 20 North American IMAX screens.
Throughout 2012, I also pointed out that the other major reason for DreamWorks Animation shares may rise:
1. The theme park plans - in the new indoor theme park, shopping mall in New Jersey, the American Dream. This park is a sign of things to as DreamWorks may expand to other theme parks, the use of the character of its film library.
2. Classic Media - the acquisition of Dreamworks (Dreamworks) for about $ 150 million to buy a classic media library. The acquisition will allow DreamWorks licensed merchandise alone, also can be used to film more than 100 characters. Previously, the company announced that they shoot a movie, based on classic media characters Mr. Peabody and Sherman.
3. The move to TV - CEO of Jeffrey creating a the DreamWorks TV show character implied. The Company in the Nickelodeon show "Kung Fu Panda" and "Madagascar". The company also created a program called "Dragoon Shi Boke" on Cartoon Network.
DreamWorks began to accumulate shares another reason for a potential acquisition. For its part, DreamWorks stock looks attractive. However, in the film industry, including the merger of the Disney purchase Lucasfilm, DreamWorks looks attractive, U.S. $ 1.66 billion market capitalization. Important characters and brands of the studio, suitable for the needs of a studio, a family or child department.
The analysts believe that the company's report, in the fourth quarter of last year, earnings per share of $ 0.38. Analysts were pleasantly surprised when the $ 0.29 in the September quarter, the forecast of $ 0.11. The company has won the first three quarters of $ 0.57. Analysts saw earlier, the company this fiscal year earnings of $ 0.93, before jumping in the next year 1.06 yuan.
DreamWorks shares trading at $ 19.64, or toward the middle of their 52-week range. Fifty-two weeks $ 16.34 $ 22.98 The shares rose 17% in 2012, but in the past two years, is still down 38%. End of the year to reach $ 25 or $ 30, is not out of the question. Diversification from the movie studio, should be recognized by investors, and should improve future earnings per share targets. The company has also shifted to the more active of the three or four movies in 2013, an annual pattern.
