DHX Media Licenses Kids’ Series Caillou, Inspector Gadget and Strawberry Shortcake to Amazon Prime Video for India

Deal highlights DHX Media as a ‘go-to’ content provider for global SVOD market

DHX Media (or the "Company") (TSX: DHX.A, DHX.B, NASDAQ: DHXM), the world’s leading independent, pure-play children’s content company, has licensed more than three-dozen kids’ series to Amazon Prime Video’s new subscription-video-on-demand (SVOD) service in India.

Thom Chapman, Territory Manager at DHX Media, said “This volume deal highlights the scale of our library, and our ability to deliver a wide-ranging slate of great kids’ shows to leading streaming platforms as they expand globally. With Amazon Prime Video taking up our programming for the emerging SVOD market in India, we are boosting our international presence and underscoring our reputation as a trusted ‘go-to’ distributor of quality kids’ content.”

DHX Media titles licensed by Amazon for the region include such evergreen shows as Caillou, Inspector Gadget and Strawberry Shortcake, as well as hits such as Johnny Test, Kid vs Kat, and many more.

This latest content pact follows a vast offering of DHX Media shows already available through Amazon Prime Video in other key territories globally. Last year, Amazon licensed the DHX Media original series Looped, exclusively for its members in the U.S., as well as adding library content to the U.S. Prime Video catalogue. In the U.K and Germany, Prime members can enjoy more than three-dozen DHX Media kids’ shows including Teletubbies, Messy Goes to Okido and Hank Zipzer.
