Paramount Skydance launches hostile bid for WBD ‘to finish what we started,’ CEO Ellison tells CNBC
Paramount Skydance is launching a hostile bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery after it lost out to Netflix in a monthslong bidding war for the legacy assets, the company said Monday.
The offer is backstopped with equity financing from the
Ellison family and the private equity firm
RedBird Capital as well as $54 billion in debt commitments from Bank of America, Citi and
Apollo Global Management, Paramount said in a news release.
A portion of the equity financing comes from outside Middle Eastern financing partners including
Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund,
Abu Dhabi’s L’imad Holding Company PJSC, and the
Qatar Investment Authority. Another portion derives from
Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners. Kushner is U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law.
