DHX Media Ltd., the producer of popular children’s television shows like Teletubbies and Caillou, is considering a sale after poor quarterly results contributed to a 30 percent drop in the share price in less than two weeks.

The Halifax, Nova Scotia-based company’s board has initiated a strategic review focused on maximizing shareholder value, DHX said Monday in a statement. Possible outcomes could include the sale of some or all of the company, or a merger with another party.
