it all depends on meaning of \"riconosciute\". If it means \"admissible\", then it makes no sense translating \"licenzianti\" as \"licensors\"; if it means \"paid\", then the \"licenzianti\" certainly are the \"licensors\". The phrase is ambiguous, but in the latter case the translation could be: due to our paying our share of the advertising costs to the licensors.
