Bodhi Tree Multimedia Limited has acquired a 20% stake in Lehren Networks Private Limited (LNPL) for ₹1.20 crore in a share swap deal. Bodhi Tree Multimedia issued 12,00,000 equity shares to complete the transaction.
Lehren Networks Private Limited reported a standalone turnover of ₹309.06 lakh, equivalent to approximately ₹3.09 crore, for the fiscal year 2024-25.
This strategic move is intended to broaden Bodhi Tree Multimedia's presence and strengthen its position within the competitive media and entertainment industry. The acquisition gives Bodhi Tree Multimedia a 20% minority stake in LNPL.
Bodhi Tree Multimedia, engaged in content creation, broadcasting, digital media, and film production, enhances its portfolio within the digital and traditional media landscape. The issuance of new shares will slightly dilute existing shareholder equity. The deal also creates potential for future collaboration and content synergy between the two companies.
While the company's filing did not detail specific risks associated with this acquisition, investors are encouraged to monitor Lehren Networks' performance post-deal. Key areas to track include the financial contribution of LNPL to Bodhi Tree Multimedia's consolidated results, the realization of synergy and integration plans, and the impact of the new share issuance on Bodhi Tree Multimedia's earnings per share (EPS).
