TCAT Update

One Media iP Group Plc (AIM: OMIP), the digital music rights acquirer, publisher and distributor, announces that the Company's subsidiary TCAT Limited has received advance assurance in relation to Enterprise Investment Scheme ("EIS") from HM Revenues & Customs ("HMRC").

TCAT (Technical Copyright Analysis Tool) is a 'Software as a Service' (SaaS) platform, which was developed in-house at One Media to detect copyright infringement within legitimate digital music stores.

As previously announced the Company is seeking to separate TCAT from the core business.  The EIS advance assurance received from HMRC in relation to TCAT facilitates the Company to seek new sources of funding to invest in TCAT.

TCAT's next phase of development is to become a leading anti-piracy service for the music industry.  Piracy costs the UK economy £9 billion a year, according to a 2019 report by the government's Intellectual Property Office.

TCAT currently provides a range of services to two major record labels and the world's largest media distributor on a retained basis, and its services are also used by organisations that represent the interests of the recording industry worldwide.

TCAT Limited is based in Belfast, a leading technology hub with a large pool of highly qualified employees. TCAT is eligible for financial government support from the regional development agency, Invest Northern Ireland.

Notes to editors on TCAT

TCAT, the Technical Copyright Analysis Tool, is a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform developed as a means of automating the difficult and time consuming task of monitoring digital music releases, for instances of unauthorised exploitation. The bespoke TCAT software is quick and powerful, capable of scanning legitimate global digital music stores for unauthorised and duplicated releases, and chart information.

TCAT is the new tool for music labels, especially those with expansive libraries that would prove difficult  to manually monitor. TCAT will aide that content owners are making the most of all their  music assets.

For music publishers, content ownership is often unlawfully exploited, in re-recordings by other artists, or for different languages, without the correct royalties being returned. TCAT can help find these instances.

For Artists, not only can TCAT discover if their track is being unlawfully exploited, it can also produce instantaneous reports, on a global scale. This includes chart information, and global sales, for targeted marketing, release scheduling on a territorial basis and ensuring that the owners' content reaches the 167 global territories currently available.
