Yea, what the TV show worth.They capitalized cost for 52 shows. Its on about 185 stations. How much revenue do they get from them? How much of that goes back to japan? The co doesn't say so I assume its quite low but I don't really know.

I used a 30% after-tax estimate because KIDE's revenue jump would come from royalties. So, given that their fixed costs are expected to be stable, the after-tax margin should increase quite a bit. I was actually tempted to use a number even higher than 30%, but stuck with 30% because some KIDE management bonuses are linked to pre-tax income. By the way, has anyone else heard news that KIDE will do the merchandise licensing for Nintendo's "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time."
