Paramount Threw a Wrench in Netflix’s Bid to Acquire Warner Bros.
Reported by Leo Miller. Article Published: 12/16/2025.
Article Highlights
- Netflix has agreed to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming and studio production assets in a cash-and-stock deal worth up to $27.75 per share, excluding the spin-off of TV channel assets.
- Paramount Skydance is countering with a hostile all-cash $30-per-share offer to acquire WBD’s entire business, including both streaming and TV assets.
- Antitrust considerations and shareholder votes remain key hurdles, with the Paramount offer seen as more regulator-friendly due to reduced market dominance concerns.
The drama surrounding Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ: WBD) continues to heat up. After the entertainment giant announced that Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) would acquire it, Paramount Skydance (NASDAQ: PSKY) threw a wrench into the situation. Here are the latest developments in the streaming war saga and what they could mean for WBD stock.
Breaking Down the NFLX-WBD Deal Structure
Netflix has agreed to purchase WBD’s streaming and studio production assets in a cash-and-stock transaction. For each WBD share, the deal includes $23.25 in cash and $4.50 in Netflix stock.
Historic change coming to America in 2026 (Ad)
A new generation of AI is expected to come online in early 2026, and some analysts believe its impact could extend far beyond technology or markets.
In a recent broadcast, one researcher explains why this shift could accelerate innovation across healthcare, productivity, and the economy — and outlines a small group of companies he believes may benefit most as the transition unfolds.Watch the full broadcast here
The stock portion’s value is subject to change based on Netflix’s 15-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) before the transaction closes. The $4.50 stock value applies if NFLX trades between $97.91 and $119.67 during that VWAP window; if the VWAP falls below or rises above this range, the amount of Netflix stock delivered per WBD share will decrease or increase accordingly. For reference, here’s a detailed guide on how VWAP is calculated.
WBD’s linear TV channel assets, such as CNN and TNT Sports, are not part of Netflix’s acquisition. Instead, WBD will spin off those assets into a new publicly traded company called Discovery Global, and WBD shareholders will receive shares in that entity. The market will determine Discovery Global’s value; some have suggested it could be between $1 and $5 per share.
Putting the pieces together, WBD shareholders could receive per WBD share:
- $23.25 in cash
- $4.50 in Netflix stock (variable based on NFLX’s 15-day VWAP)
- $1–$5 in Discovery Global shares
That implies an estimated total value per WBD share of roughly $28 to $33, depending on market conditions and Discovery Global’s eventual valuation.
Paramount Skydance Launches a $30 All-Cash Bid
While the NFLX deal is pending shareholder and regulatory approval, Paramount Skydance has launched an unsolicited all-cash bid to acquire all of WBD for $30 per share. Paramount’s offer would purchase WBD’s streaming, studio, and TV channel assets.
Key advantages of the PSKY offer include:
- No variability from stock-based payments — shareholders receive a fixed cash payout
- No spin-off structure; shareholders get one clean transaction
- A potentially simpler regulatory path with lower antitrust risk
Regulatory Hurdles Could Favor PSKY
Nothing is final until antitrust regulators sign off. Currently, it appears regulators might be more inclined to approve a PSKY-WBD combination than an NFLX-WBD one. Netflix has over 300 million subscribers, and WBD’s HBO Max has over 100 million. Combining them would give Netflix well over 400 million subscribers, further extending its lead in the streaming market.
By contrast, PSKY’s Paramount+ has around 79 million subscribers. Merging Paramount+ with HBO Max would leave a combined entity with under 200 million subscribers — still far below Netflix on its own. Because promoting competition is the central goal of antitrust review, a PSKY-WBD deal would be seen as counterbalancing Netflix’s dominance, whereas an NFLX-WBD deal would significantly increase that dominance.
The WBD Saga Continues
The fight to acquire WBD is far from over. Paramount’s move could spark a bidding war, and if both suitors raise their offers, WBD shareholders may see upward pressure on the stock in the short term.
Paramount’s $30-per-share all-cash offer provides certainty and simplicity, but it may undercut the potential upper bound of the NFLX proposal (about $33 per share), assuming favorable market pricing and Discovery Global’s valuation. Ultimately, shareholder votes and regulatory approval will decide the outcome.
Investors should monitor updates closely and be prepared for potential revisions to the bids as the situation evolves.
