Rangemore partner now approved to issue tax credits under HMRC Enterprise Investment Scheme
MIAMI BEACH, FL, March 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Auctions International Inc. ("Auctions") (OTCPINK: AUCI) announces that Rangemore Productions Corp's. ("Rangemore") new joint venture partner Flick Me Productions Limited ("Flick Me") has been approved by the Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) to issue tax credits under the HMRC Enterprise Investment Scheme.
This approval will allow Flick Me to issue a 30% tax credit for any cash investment made into one its independent films for up to £16 million annually and traditionally there is a very strong demand for these types of investments. Public companies cannot apply for this tax credit scheme, so the intent is to raise funds for the film productions under Flick Me using the Enterprise Investment Scheme and then allow Rangemore to purchase royalties in each of the films by issuing preferred stock to Flick Me once the initial funding has been completed.
"Flick Me's ability to now issue tax credits is a huge plus for us" stated Andrew McLaughlin, President & CEO of Rangemore Productions. "Flick Me will be able to raise up to £16 million per year without having to rely on Rangemore issuing large blocks of stock at a very low price to fund the film productions. The combination of the tax credits along with the preferred stock issuances for the royalties was the only feasible solution we could see whereby Rangemore could participate in the profit sharing of the Flick Me films without experiencing massive dilution." finished Mr. McLaughlin.
