Takeout Value

Finance allah shmoop what is control value dance on a

fifty shades thing Well there's a partnership a semi evil

one there was once a tv siri's It was exorbitantly

expensive to produce but everyone wanted to make it So

it ended up being made not by one studio but

by three viacom paramount disney and then news corp fox

Before it was disney news corp fox well each of

the three partners put in a third of the money

and split all the money distributions equally The problem on

the show ended up being hugely successful when it ran

for the first time on network tv so that was

great but now it's in reruns and because all three

competitors generally hate each other he's financially if their job

too none are willing to run the show a lot

on their cable network or broadcast network because then they

generate revenues for their hated competitors so they don't run

the tv series even though people want to see it

And this is a big fat bummer to the actors

writers and producers of the show who were banking on

rerun royalties to pay for their divorces if one of

the studios owned the siri's I'ii controlled it let's call

that siri's sunlight ing well then the siri's would heir

a ton more and presumably generate a ton more desperately

needed revenues What do you think divorce lawyers work for

free Well the control value of owning that asset then

is huge because if it were owned by one player

well then that player could run it again and again

and again and again on their network like think big

bang on tbs and then monetize that asset and massively

so there's Incremental control value with the well controlling a

property And yet it's not to be confused with remote

control value which is about a buck twenty five on 00:01:51.209 --> [endTime] ebay
