Content Partners, a Los Angeles-based investment company focused on films, television programming and related royalties, has launched Content Partners Capital, a new division providing private capital for entertainment industry businesses and IP assets.
The new business division will be led by incoming Partner Alphonse Lordo, who joins from Truist Securities, where he was Managing Director and the sector head for entertainment. In his new role, Lordo will oversee the origination and portfolio management of private credit opportunities.
CPC has already provided debt financing to Media Capital Technologies to support a transaction with Lionsgate.
Content Partners was founded in 2006 by Steven Blume and Steven Kram, with ownership of box office titles including 13 Going on 30, Black Hawk Down, Black Swan, Hugo and xXx. The company also owns Revolution Studios and co-owns the CSI television franchise, purchasing such assets from investors, producers, writers, directors, actors and musicians.
Its target acquisitions include film, television and music assets that are generating cash flow and have long-term distribution deals with major studios, networks, publishers and other distribution channels.
