Naples, FL, Dec. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Music Licensing, Inc. (OTC: SONG) (“the Company”) is pleased to announce the receipt of another royalty payment from its intellectual property stake in Listerine® Antiseptic Mouthwash. This payment highlights the strength of the Company’s royalty-generating assets and supports its ambitious plans for strategic growth in 2025.

The Company has set acquisition targets ranging from $36 million to $250 million for 2025, focusing on high-quality intellectual property assets with strong and consistent revenue potential. Jake P. Noch Family Office, LLC, an entity affiliated with Jake P. Noch, Chairman and CEO of Music Licensing, Inc., will fund these acquisitions by paying directly for the underlying assets. Due to regulatory requirements under the court-approved 3(a)(10) exemption, Jake P. Noch Family Office, LLC cannot provide direct cash payments to Music Licensing, Inc., ensuring compliance with all applicable rules.

The acquisitions will occur in tranches ranging from $25,000 to several million USD. This structured approach is designed to create a highly diversified portfolio, mitigating liquidity risks commonly associated with alternative assets and supporting long-term stability and growth for the Company.

“Our ongoing royalty payments from the Listerine® stake demonstrate the reliability of our intellectual property investment strategy,” said Jake P. Noch, CEO of Music Licensing, Inc. “Through a compliant funding structure and a disciplined acquisition strategy, we are focused on building a robust and diversified portfolio to enhance shareholder value.”

Jake P. Noch Family Office, LLC plans to commence funding for these acquisitions once it realizes approximately $24 million USD in reimbursements and salary owed under the court-approved 3(a)(10) arrangement. These funds are expected to be secured through block trades executed via an institutional execution firm capable of sourcing block liquidity. This approach minimizes market impact and ensures orderly deployment of capital to facilitate Music Licensing, Inc.’s acquisition goals.

In addition to its acquisition and funding strategies, Music Licensing, Inc. is taking steps to enhance its investor relations outreach in the coming months. These initiatives include:

• Engaging in sponsored research reports and sponsored analyst coverage to increase visibility among investors.
• Participating in investor conferences to showcase the Company’s strategy and performance to institutional and retail investors.
• Conducting additional regulatory-permitted investor targeting outreach to improve engagement and communication with the investment community.

“As we grow, we recognize the importance of keeping our investors informed and engaged,” added Noch. “By stepping up our investor relations efforts, we aim to ensure that the market has a clear understanding of our strategy, performance, and potential. These initiatives are a vital part of our commitment to transparency and shareholder value creation.”

The Company is also actively reviewing the business model of its wholly owned subsidiary, Pro Music Rights. In 2025, Music Licensing, Inc. may consider restructuring Pro Music Rights to improve operational efficiency and align with evolving market dynamics, further strengthening its position in the intellectual property sector.

“Pro Music Rights has been a cornerstone of our portfolio, and we are committed to ensuring its continued success,” said Noch. “By evaluating its current business model, we aim to identify opportunities to optimize its operations and maximize its contribution to our overall growth.”

Music Licensing, Inc. remains dedicated to providing regular updates on its acquisition strategy, investor relations efforts, and strategic initiatives as part of its ongoing commitment to transparency and shareholder engagement.
