Revenue Round Up: It's Not All Negative with Revenue Increases for Some in Q3
@Alexanz1: fiscally they are in the whole year over year, but the net value of their brand is significant. i don't like it either but this is how brands work these days, Telsa has yet to make a true profit, but their net worth is staggering....

Revenue Round Up: It's Not All Negative with Revenue Increases for Some in Q3
@TwoNGlenn: its pretty obvious that my statement clearly shows i'm pushing for innovation and differentiation in new brands. which is the ONLY way to compete against the big four. i want the little guys to succeed, but if they don't innovate, differentiate or add massive value, they'll die 9 times out of 10. i've been at this for 30 years and run a portfolio of small innovative brands. i've also made the mistake in the past of the generalists, they almost never last....

GCN+ to Close as Warner Bros. Discovery Looks to Consolidate Streaming Services [Updated with Information from WBD]
@sino428: I don't want to get into this too much but the truth is simple, redbull beverage made $9.68 billion last year, redbull media made $2.52 billion last year. Media House is extremely profitable, as is the drink portion of the company. But just like i stated in my original comment i don't expect anything but to be down voted because most pinkbike kids are in it for the 2 second rush of down voting, not actually understanding the business side. i don't post here to get votes, i post to tell the truth. I've been in this industry for 30 years.

i know i'll get down voted but this is what the industry needed, there are/were far too many brands and entities living off of 0% loans and lines of credit and playing with "Free Money" now that the Chicken has come home to Roost its time to lean things down a bit. There must have been 20 "start up" MTB bike brands in the past 36 months (another 10-20 gravel/all road brands).
I love MTB to death but the market simply isn't that large or growing that fast to support this influx.
This thinning of the heard will allow the brands that truly innovate and bring differentiation to the marketplace to thrive.

GCN was propped up from the start and as cool as it was, the revenue stream was always in question? how were they truly going to make money? a few sponsors, placed ads? its just not enough when you consider the HUGE costs associated with broadcasting .
as already stated REDBULL is licking their lips, they truly understand media coverage and broadcasting and how to create revenue
