🇺🇸 LARRY ELLISON’S SON GOES ALL-IN: $30-A-SHARE HOSTILE BID FOR WARNER BROS. DISCOVERY David Ellison just detonated Hollywood’s biggest power play of the decade. Skydance and Paramount CEO went live on CNBC to announce a $30-per-share all-cash hostile tender offer for Warner Bros. Discovery — a $41 billion equity deal valued at $54 billion enterprise-wide. He told CNBC’s Squawk Box: “We’re really here to finish what we started… Our offer is $30 a share, all cash, backed by the Ellison family, Redbird Capital, Citibank, Bank of America, and Apollo. Cash is still king.” Ellison’s move comes just three days after Netflix’s $82.7 billion cash-and-stock bid for WBD’s studios, HBO, and streaming platforms. His pitch: simplicity and certainty. He’s offering $17.6 billion more in cash than Netflix, faster regulatory clearance, and what he calls a “pro-consumer, pro-creative, pro-competition” deal. The Netflix offer, partly stock-based and excluding WBD’s global networks like CNN and HBO International, raised antitrust red flags by creating a 400-million-subscriber superstreamer. Ellison argued that combining Skydance, Paramount, and WBD would instead balance the market,“strong but not monopolistic.” Hollywood talent is reportedly cheering Ellison’s move, calling it a stand for theaters and creativity after Netflix chief Ted Sarandos’ comment that “theatrical releases aren’t essential.” Bottom line: Ellison’s “cash is king” strategy is a masterclass in corporate brinkmanship. If successful, it could mark the rebirth of studio-driven Hollywood... one where storytellers, not algorithms, take the lead. Sources: CNBC, Reuters; Bloomberg, Variety, Hollywood Reporter

🚨🇺🇸 NETFLIX’S $72 BILLION TAKEOVER OF WARNER BROS SHAKES HOLLYWOOD TO ITS CORE Netflix just rewrote Hollywood’s future. The streamer announced a $72 billion cash-and-stock deal to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery’s film and TV studios, HBO, HBO Max, and gaming business... its largest acquisition ever and one of the biggest in media history. The offer values Warner Bros. at $27.75 per share ($23.25 in cash and $4.50 in Netflix stock), totaling $82.7 billion when factoring in debt. It beats rival bids from Paramount Skydance and Comcast and comes with a hefty $5.8 billion breakup fee if regulators block it. Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said it’s all about growth and storytelling: “We can’t stand still. We need to keep innovating and investing in stories that matter most to audiences, and that’s what this deal is all about. The combination of Netflix and Warner Brothers creates a better Netflix for the long term. It sets us up for success for decades to come. Warner Brothers has some of the best entertainment in the world, period.” The merger would unite franchises like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and DC under one streaming roof, while preserving theatrical releases with shorter windows.

This weekend several parties are gearing up to bid on Warner Brothers Discovery in a heated auction. This comes a full quarter century since I advised Aol in their $183 billion merger with Time Warner in the largest deal in history in 2000, a deal way ahead of its time and massively financially lopsided (in my client’s favor). Who will win the bidding for Warner Bros. – Comcast, Netflix, Skydance Paramount or a dark horse candidate? My bet is on Paramount because Comcast’s Brian Roberts is economically rational and Netflix doesn’t need it. Plus, Skydance’s David Ellison has both his dad’s cash and connections (Saudi money?) and the right political connections (Trump) to get the deal greenlit. Whoever wins the auction, one thing’s certain: the real winner is David Zaslav who bet big on a high-risk leveraged play when he convinced AT&T to merge Warner Bros. with Discovery in deal at one point had $48 billion of debt – a deal that panned out after all at a time when legacy media is in decline. Very Disco!

Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery reportedly signed an agreement Friday on a $110 billion deal, a merger that will make Paramount one of the largest media empires in the world. It happened after a dramatic turn of events and after Netflix walked away from its proposal to buy out Warner Bros. Paramount could now control two key movie studios, multiple streaming platforms, major intellectual property brands, along with television and cable channels, and two of the biggest news operations on television, CBS and CNN. But this isn't a done deal yet, as it is now under investigation and awaiting regulatory approval. Geoff Bennett sat down with Roben Farzad, host of public radio's "Full Disclosure," for more.
