Unleashing TPC's European Expansion: Making a Bold Move in the Global Content Marketplace
Investment Bank ACF in London enters collaboration with TPC, expanding their operations in the city.
Three Point Capital (TPC), the acclaimed Los Angeles-based financier behind hits like Longlegs, is making waves in the international media scene with its grand entrance into London. This strategic move positions TPC as a key player in Europe's ascension as a titan in global production.
CEO David Gendron: Charting a Course for European Growth
Established in 2009, TPC has consistently doled out roughly $100 million annually in the entertainment sector. Under the leadership of President and CEO David Gendron, this expansion comes in response to "legislative changes and the evolving global production landscape." The company is set to capitalize on benefits such as the UK's newly enacted Independent Film Tax Credit, as well as growing competition among global markets to attract film and TV projects.
Powerhouse Partnerships and Services
TPC falls under the umbrella of The Forest Road Company, which also includes ACF Investment Bank—a transatlantic M&A advisor. In addition to production and gap financing, TPC offers services including commercial production, tax credit administration, production advisory, and streaming licensing fee factoring. Recently, TPC financed The Monkey, a Stephen King adaptation slated for release by NEON in February.
Leading by Example in London
To spearhead operations in its new London office, TPC has enlisted industry heavyweights Dan Abrams from Pipe Entertainment and Keith Kehoe from Great Point Media. This move signifies TPC's commitment to solidifying its presence and delivering customized support tailored to European needs.
Riding the Wave of Evolving Payment Structures
As payment structures in both the U.S. and U.K. undergo change, TPC is well-positioned to assist scripted and unscripted producers as they master these shifts. Broadcasters are transitioning from tying payments to production milestones to models akin to independent film financing, where payments occur post-completion.
A Synergistic Alliance: TPC and ACF Investment Bank
With its roots in the U.K., TPC will work hand in hand with ACF Investment Bank, a specialist in securitization deals and fundraising. By bolstering TPC's operations and financing capabilities, ACF is poised to help TPC extend its reach and provide an integrated, seamless financing solution to clients across the media landscape.
Climbing the Ladder of European Expansion
Reflecting on the strategic expansion, David Gendron shared, "Recognizing the substantial shift in production moving to Europe, this expansion is a natural evolution of our strategic vision to better support our clients more directly, globally." Thomas Dey, President of ACF Investment Bank, added, "Together, TPC and ACF are poised to redefine media financing, offering clients greater flexibility and expanded resources in an era of dynamic global media production."
