Delayed Subsidiary Rights Payments
Definition
Standard contracts demand 30-60 day pass-through for sub-rights over AUD 1,000 threshold; delays tie up cash and risk disputes.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: 30-60 days delayed cash per sub-rights payment (e.g., AUD 2,000-5,000 held per deal)
- Frequency: Per sub-licence deal, quarterly for active rights desks
- Root Cause: Manual reconciliation of irregular sub-licence receipts vs. semi-annual royalty cycles
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Book publishing houses in Australia lose AUD 10,000+ annually per title on delayed sub-rights cash. Automation of pass-through accelerates time-to-cash.
