Risks of KRI Entertainment IPO
- No Own Registered Office
The registered office from where KRI Entertainment operates is not owned by it. The company cannot assure that it will be able to continue the above arrangement on commercially acceptable / favorable terms in future. If it’s required to vacate the current premises, the company would be required to make alternative arrangements for new office and other infrastructure, and it cannot be assured that the new arrangements will be on commercially acceptable/favourable terms.
- No Firm Commitment with Customers
The company typically does not have firm commitment with its customers. If its customers choose not to source their requirements from it, there may be a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
- Dependence on the Performance of End-Use Customers and the M&E Industry
The company is significantly dependent on its celebrities/rosters engaged in M&E industries who approach it and engage with its services for managing them. The demand of the company’s services is directly proportional to the demand of the services of its customers and the success in M&E industries. Therefore, the commercial success of its business is highly dependent on the commercial viability and success of its customers.
- Shift in Customer Taste and Preference
The entertainment industry is prone to unforeseen shifts in tastes and preferences of audiences, which can significantly impact the company’s operations. If the company is unable to produce the content that appeals to audiences or to accurately judge audience acceptance of content, the commercial success of such serials will be in doubt.
This could result in costs exceeding revenues generated or anticipated profits not being realised, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
