As a result of the acquisition, the Company now produces feature animation films under both the Disney and Pixar banners. Prior to the acquisition, the Company co-financed and distributed animated motion pictures developed in conjunction with Pixar. Both parties co-financed and co-branded the films and shared equally in the profits of each picture and any related merchandise or ancillary products, after the Company recovered all marketing costs and received a distribution fee.
