Zinc Media Group

("Zinc" or
the "Group")
Contract Wins and Notice of
Interim Results
Zinc Media Group plc (AIM: ZIN), the
award-winning television, brand and audio production group,
is pleased to announce it
has won major new production contracts worth a combined £4m of
revenue to the Group. The specifics of these commissions will
remain confidential until the broadcasters release details at a
later date. These new contract wins keep
the Group on track to deliver results for FY24 in line with market
expectations.*
One commission is a new
multi-million pound series for a major global streaming platform,
produced by the Group's newest label, Atomic Television. Atomic's
first series, 'Defending
Europe' was commissioned last year by the National
Geographic Channel and is available on Disney+ and Hulu. The
series, which explores 1,000 years of European military history,
launched in the UK on 16 September 2024.
In addtion, Zinc has been
commissioned by a global music label to produce a major new biopic
on one of the biggest pop bands of the 20th century.
This seven-figure revenue production, which comes from a new
customer, is due to be filmed towards the end of FY24 and early
FY25. This commission further expands Zinc's client base and builds
on the Group's reputation for high profile music based series. It
comes off the back of 'Paid in
Full - The Battle for Black Music', which is executive
produced by Idris and Sabrina Elba and will air on the BBC on 21
September.
Both commissions will do all post
production within Zinc's wholly owned post production house,
Bumblebee.
