January 2013 Industry Overview
January 2013
Industry Overview
To Our Colleagues and Friends attending NAMM 2013
We look forward to meeting with you in Anaheim this week at the 2013 NAMM Show, and sharing our
views on the industry and hearing your valuable perspectives.
From a financial perspective 2013 is off to strong start. In 2012 we saw building momentum in the M&A
and capital finance arenas, in general and within our business. We announced the sale of our client
Radiant Grid to Wohler, and in December the $7m private growth equity financing of our media
networking client Sohonet by investor FF&P Partners, both London based firms. At present we are actively
engaged in a range of transactions involving M&A, capital formation, and “dual track” processes where our
client seeks to choose from the most favorable option from either a sale or capital raise. Our current
clients include leaders in broadcast, advanced audio solutions, video transport and advanced asset
management, and are located in the US (on both coasts) and in Europe.
Our NAMM presentation which follows provides up to date information on M&A and growth capital
transactions in the audio and digital media markets. We highlight the performance of the major publicly
held players in the media content lifecycle. We also discuss important current trends in the audio
segment.
Feel free to contact us during NAMM Show or afterwards to discuss your growth capital or strategic
planning questions.
Best,
Ethan E. Jacks

Trends to Watch
Music and Audio 2012-2013
1.
Emerging Mobile Tools: Mobile devices, including the iPad, are being increasingly utilized as replacements for, or
extensions of, traditional user interfaces. Companies are also creating surprisingly powerful DAW and other music
and sound-related apps for these platforms, competing with desktop solutions, if only at the entry level at this stage.
As mobile platforms and software develop, many companies will place increasing emphasis on the very large hobbyist
customer population.
2.
Beyond Tablets and Desktop Studios: Larger format touchscreen products and other virtual work surface innovations
will likely revolutionize the UI, while growing computational power, software innovations and AI will provide
unprecedented processing power and ease-of-use. Meanwhile, some leaders in today’s DAW market are showing
signs of vulnerability to attack from innovative competitors.
3.
Music and Sound Creation Tools: Advances in sampling continue to narrow the gap between real and sampled
instruments, while breakthroughs in synthesis and hybrid sampling technologies are facilitating the creation of an
entirely new palette of instrumental sounds, and providing remarkable new tools for sound designers.
4.
Consumer Audio: Following a period of apparent declining interest in sound quality in an age dominated by mobile
music consumption, the dynamic growth of high-quality premium-priced headphones has pushed sound quality back
to greater prominence, especially with young music listeners. Led by artist-endorsed brands like Beats by Dr. Dre and
Soul by Ludacris, US headphone sales are approaching $1B/year. Other directional indicators include improved music
encoding on the Amazon MP3 and the iTunes Stores (made practical by cheaper/larger storage).
5.
Social Media: VC funding increasingly requires a social media story; companies are creating products as a means to
build a social network, especially for the consumer music industry. Social media has also become a core music
promotion and distribution channel, putting go-to-market tools in the hands of musicians themselves.
