Genius Brands International, Inc. Issues Sharehold

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Oct. 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Brands International (NASDAQ: GNUS ) recently released a letter to shareholders from Chairman & CEO Andy Heyward. The complete letter follows:

Dear Friends and Shareholders,   This coming week is the hugely important MIPCOM television market in Cannes. It is a global supermarket of TV shows, where we introduce our children’s animated programs to the international broadcast and digital community.  We are very excited about introducing both  RAINBOW RANGERS  and  LLAMA LLAMA ,  both of which have been highly anticipated .     Rainbow Rangers  is, of course, sold to NICKELODEON in the U.S., and with Mattel Toys as a global toy licensee.   Llama Llama,  based on the best selling kids books, is being produced for NETFLIX, and features Jennifer Garner as the voice of “Mama Llama”.   I’m very excited to share with you a sneak peek of these two tiffany programs!!!

On a related note of excitement, I began buying stock in our company this week on the open market, as you may have noticed from the SEC Form 4 filings over the past several days.  I believe the company is undervalued.   Enjoy the trailers below, and I think when seeing them you will agree!!

­­Sincerely,

Andy Heyward   Chairman & CEO Genius Brands International, Inc.
