4Kids Entertainment (Pink Sheets: KIDE) (commonly known as 4Kids) is an American film and television production company. It is known for English-dubbing Japanese anime and specializing in the acquisition, production and licensing of children's entertainment around the United States. The first anime that 4Kids dubbed was the first eight seasons of Pokémon that aired on Kids' WB! in the United States. The company is most well-known for its range of television licenses, which has included the multi-billion dollar Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! Japanese anime franchises. They also ran two program blocks: The CW4Kids on The CW and 4Kids TV stations, both aimed at children.[2] As of December 27, 2008, the 4KidsTV block ended on Fox Network, leaving 4Kids to only broadcast The CW4Kids.
4Kids Entertainment has its world headquarters on Sixth Avenue in New York City, its subsidiary, 4Kids Productions, has its headquarters in a separate building in Manhattan.[3] The New York Stock Exchange delisted 4Kids (NYSE: KDE) on June 1, 2010.[4]
On October 2, 2007, Warner Bros. and CBS announced that the Kids' WB programming block on their co-owned network, The CW, would be ending in 2008, and no longer be marketed and produced in-house, due to factors including building children's advertising and marketing restrictions, and cable competition. Rights for the five hour Saturday morning block were bought by 4Kids, and they began to program the time with their own programming (mixed in with three former Kids' WB originals) in September 2008.[14] Because of this additional deal, 4Kids provided programming for both The CW and Fox in the 2008–09 season giving 4Kids nine hours of combined children's programming on two broadcast networks, as 4KidsTV ran until December 27, 2008. The new block, The CW4Kids, started May 24, 2008. The CW4Kids was renamed to Toonzai starting on August 14, 2010, featuring Magical Do-Re-Mi!, Cubix: Robots for Everyone, Dinosaur King, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, Sonic X and Dragon Ball Z Kai.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 15, 2004
4Kids Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: KDE), today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2003.
For fiscal year 2003, 4Kids Entertainment net revenues increased 92% to $102.1 million from $53.1 million in 2002. Net income for the year was $14.8 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, versus $7.0 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, reported in the prior fiscal year.
The diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2003 were 14,156,291 shares compared with 13,726,642 shares for the prior year.
Net revenues in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2003, were $32.4 million compared to $25.9 million in the year-earlier period. Fourth quarter net income was $5.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to $2.2 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the same period from the previous year.
Commenting on the results, Al Kahn, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "our annual revenues grew to over $100 million for the first time in the company's history enabling us to more than double net income and earnings per share for the year".
The Company noted that revenues were driven by strong consumer demand for Yu-Gi-Oh!(TM) and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(TM) licensed merchandise which grew steadily throughout the year and into the holiday season. Additionally, business initiatives recently launched in 2002, such as the Fox Box which generated ad sales, and 4Kids Home Video, were contributors to higher revenues.
"FoxBox(TM), 4Kids' four hours of programming on Saturday mornings on the Fox Network, continues to be an important component of our content distribution strategy," Kahn added. "The new 2003-2004 FoxBox(TM) line-up, launched in September, has given our properties greater overall exposure to our primary target audience of boys age 6-11. We anticipate that ad sales and FoxBox(TM) related merchandise licensing revenues will increase from 2003 levels."
Looking ahead, we are excited about our prospects for the upcoming year. The first Yu-Gi-Oh! (TM) feature film is set to premiere in August and we are seeing sustained retail demand for Yu-Gi-Oh! (TM) and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(TM) licensed merchandise thus far in 2004. We are planning the introduction of new licensed merchandise for these properties as well as the launch of a new licensing program for Shaman King(TM). In addition, we are planning the mid-year launch of Winx Club(TM), our first property targeting the girls market, on the FoxBox(TM).
Over the last several years, we have diversified our revenue streams through the acquisition of new children's properties and by entering complimentary business lines. Going forward, we will remain focused on identifying new and innovative kids content and bringing it broad exposure. Given our strong balance sheet and track record, we believe we are well positioned to grow our portfolio of kids properties," concluded Kahn.
