Avex Inc. ( (JP:7860) ) has shared an announcement.

Avex Inc. has approved the creation of two U.S.-based special purpose companies, Avex Catalog Fund 1 LLC and Avex Song Fund 1 LLC, both in Delaware and led by Avex Music Group CEO Brandon Silverstein, to manage and operate music-related rights as part of its strategy to build a global music business. The structure will allow Avex to acquire large-scale music catalogs using non-recourse financing from a specialized local lender, aiming to leverage its entertainment network, enhance returns from music-rights management, and open additional opportunities for future acquisitions and divestitures while seeking to maximize corporate value.

The first SPC, Avex Catalog Fund 1 LLC, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Avex Music Group LLC with planned capital of USD 6 million, and it will in turn own Avex Song Fund 1 LLC. The second SPC, Avex Song Fund 1 LLC, will also be capitalized at USD 6 million and function as a consolidated subsidiary focused on music-rights management, reinforcing Avex’s positioning as an active participant in the growing secondary market for music catalogs and providing a dedicated platform for overseas expansion in this asset class.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:7860) stock is a Hold with a Yen1215.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Avex Inc. stock, see the JP:7860 Stock Forecast page.
