Postcom

Postcom is an American multinational media conglomerate based in Geal Vlado, Twin Cities. The company has interests primarily in entertainment and digital media through its subsidiaries Postcom Entertainment (the owner of the ASC television network) and Postcom Digital. Postcom was founded as Post Communications Inc. in 1992, and was shortened to its current name Postcom in 1999. The company trades its common stock on the TPOTC Stock Exchange under the symbol "PTC".

History
Post Communications Inc. was formed from the ashes of the bankrupt AFC Corporation in 1991. Roybert Thompson, who was the then-chief executive of Atlink (now SpongeDirect), acquired the assets of the former company and established Post Communications to hold the assets. The company was incorporated on January 1, 1992.

During this period, Postcom was a producer of made-for-TV movies for National TV. The first one was the 1992 film, Paraphraser. The company also has co-produced several theatrical films with National TV Pictures.

On December 16, 1993, Post Communications established a subsidiary known as the Tyler Entertainment Group, which included Tyler Entertainment Channel, Tyler Films, and Tyler Studios.

On April 21, 1995, Post Communications acquired television station owner, Geral Vlado-based GV Global, the owner of KROW-TV in Geral Vlado and KCAB-TV in Adelaide, both of which are National TV affiliates.

On September 9, 1999, Post Communications was renamed Postcom after becoming a public company and the divestiture of several companies.

On August 21, 2002, the company issued a successful initial public offering on the TPOTC Stock Exchange.

On July 19, 2004, Postcom's corporate structure was overhauled. Its headquarters were moved from Robine, TC to Geral Vlado, TC. The new CEO for the company was Mark Leon.

On June 21, 2009, Postcom acquired Paracel Television for $100 billion. Paracel was then renamed Array Entertainment. At the same time, Paracel Television's television assets were carried over to Postcom to focus solely on entertainment and media, primarily the OCY 8PUH Entertainment film unit (now Postcom Studio).

On March 13, 2010, Postcom sold the Tyler Entertainment Group division to ASC Entertainment.

Harvey Bridges, already a director on the board since 2011, was hired as Postcom president in 2015, although the division operational heads continued to report directly to chairman and CEO Mark Leon.

On January 11, 2020, Postcom announced that it would buy ASC Entertainment. The deal was completed on February 17, and ASC Entertainment merged with Postcom subsidiary Array Entertainment to form Postcom Entertainment Group. This has resulted in Postcom's ASC affiliated stations to transfer to Postcom Entertainment to become ASC O&Os.

On September 28, 2020, Craig Norton replaced Mark Leon as the CEO of Postcom.
