Industry Reshaping...
* Source: Billboard Magazine
Touring Segment: • The concert industry, which has reached a
worldwide size of above $4 bn*, has been witnessing historically record-high growth rates (10-15%*) due to increasing number of concerts and increasing ticket prices.
• Concert-ticket sales have become an increasingly significant source of revenue for musicians, as recorded music sales continue to plummet all around the world.
• Concert listeners, having payed the high ticket price, expect to hear the best-quality music nearly identical to what’s on the artist’s CD.
Musical Instruments: • Musical instrument purchases depend greatly on
consumer confidence, therefore this segment of the audio market has historically been more sensitive to economic trends. With the expected upturn in the economy, this segment is expected to grow parallel to the world economy in the following years.
Musical Instruments...… constitute 77% of the professional audio market, with a size of c. €138 mn. Portable musical instruments market is estimated to be as big as c. €118 mn, whereas the guitar market is estimated to have a c.€20 mn size.
B&C Speakers, in both of these two segments, is among the top 5 players.
Musical Instruments is a very fragmented section of the market, 1/3 of which is dominated by ‘low quality-low price’ product manufacturers.
