Description
This offering features rising royalties generated by a 16-year old Swedish pop collection. What’s particularly exciting about this catalog is that three of the top-earning tracks have release years ranging from 1999 to 2001… and the income grew year-over-year!
Streaming is the largest source of earnings with 48% of the last 12 months' revenue, and these royalties increased by 26% compared to the previous year. And while digital download activity is in decline throughout the industry, downloads for this catalog are also up 5%.
Live performance income is the second highest-earning source with 36% of revenue last year. All 15 included tracks have generated consistent live performance revenue over the last six calendar years, averaging $1,550/annually. For a catalog with more mature releases, this is rather impressive.
The catalog’s top-earning song is “Kom Hem” performed by the Swedish dance band Barbados. Released in 2000, “Kom Hem” was a commercial hit and peaked at No. 19 on the Swedish singles chart. The song is the group’s most popular song on Spotify to date and earnings grew 3% year-over-year.
Other notable titles include another Barbados track “Pojkarna I Poolen,” the 2001 release “I Kväll Ska Allting Hända” from Swedish group Sannex, and “Blue Blue Moon” performed by The Boppers.
Key Drivers
Dollar Age This catalog has a Dollar Age of approximately 16 years. This means the majority of royalties earned in the last 12 months came from songs that have collected royalties for 16 years.
Even more impressive, the top-three earning songs have release dates from 1999 to 2001, and royalties for these tracks grew impressively year-over-year. A high Dollar Age like this suggests stability and longevity and is worth noting as an investor. This can help sustain the asset’s earnings moving forward.
Streaming Growth Worldwide. According to IFPI’S Global Music Report 2019, streaming revenues were up 34% in 2018, accounting for nearly half (47%) of total recorded music revenues. By the end of 2018, there were 255 million users of paid subscription accounts globally. This is good news for you as the investor, as 48% of last year's income (both and streaming ) came from streaming.
