Discovery:\n\n## Netflix-WBD Deal Overview\n\nNetflix's cash and stock transaction for WBD was valued at $27.75 per WBD share, with a total enterprise value of approximately $82.7 billion (equity value of $72.0 billion). Each WBD shareholder received $23.25 in cash and $4.50 in shares of Netflix common stock for each share of WBD common stock.\n\n## Current Status\n\nHowever, the deal has evolved significantly. In January 2026, Netflix amended its $82.7 billion offer for WBD's Streaming and Studios division from a cash-and-stock deal to all-cash, while maintaining its $27.75 per share price.\n\nAs of late February 2026, Netflix declined to increase its bid and withdrew from the negotiations, with co-CEOs stating "The transaction we negotiated would have created shareholder value with a clear path to regulatory approval." Paramount Skydance is poised to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery in its entirety after Netflix dropped out of the hunt despite having reached an agreement in December to acquire most of WBD.\n\n## Timeline\n\nThe original Netflix transaction was expected to close in 12-18 months, with the transaction expected to close after the previously announced separation of WBD's Global Networks division, Discovery Global, into a new publicly-traded company, which is now expected to be completed in Q3 2026.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"0a153d68-27ae-4af7-add1-2062b2815280","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:08:11.763Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"d97f2654-99c6-4962-8e2a-98f84ea1c06a","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"51c3ee04-d89c-4131-8b78-0a68af26316d","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"06cc067e-e0f8-4a63-b8fe-3cc0580a7811","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_01TouJQuTx7QdWNEmL17z3hR","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Paramount counter bid Warner Bros Discovery hostile $108 billion 2026"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Proposed acquisition of Warner Bros.

Discovery:\n\n## The Hostile Bid\n\nParamount launched a $108.4 billion hostile offer backed by David Ellison's family along with RedBird Capital and multiple wealth funds to take over all of Warner Bros. Discovery.\n\n## Timeline and Background\n\nOn December 4, 2025, WBD entered into a merger agreement with Netflix, and on December 8, 2025, Paramount Skydance launched a rival all-cash tender offer for WBD.\n\n## Initial Offer Details\n\nParamount commenced an all-cash tender offer to acquire all outstanding shares of WBD for $30 per share. The $30/share offer was backed by $40.7 billion in capital from Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and RedBird Capital Partners, along with funding from the sovereign wealth funds of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Abu Dhabi as well as Affinity Partners.\n\n## WBD's Response\n\nThe board of Warner Bros Discovery unanimously turned down Paramount Skydance's latest attempt to acquire the studio, saying its revised $108.4bn hostile bid amounted to a risky leveraged buyout.\n\n## Escalation\n\nParamount Skydance raised its takeover offer to $31 per share in cash, which could "reasonably be expected" to top an existing deal with Netflix. On February 26, 2026, WBD's board determined that Paramount's revised $110.9 billion offer, valuing shares at $31 each, constituted a superior proposal to the existing Netflix agreement.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown

Here are the key financial metrics for 2025:\n\n## Full Year 2025 Results:\n\nRevenue:\nTotal revenues were $37.3 billion, a 5% ex-FX decrease from the prior year.\n\nEBITDA:\nTotal Adjusted EBITDA was $8.7 billion, a 3% ex-FX decrease compared to the prior year, primarily due to a decline in the Global Linear Networks segment partially offset by growth in the Streaming and Studios segments.\n\nFree Cash Flow (FCF):\nFree cash flow was $3.1 billion. Free cash flow was unfavorably impacted by approximately $1,350 million of separation & transaction related items.\n\nDebt:\nEnded the year with $29.0 billion of net debt and 3.3x net leverage. Additionally, gross debt of $33.5 billion was reported.\n\nOperating Cash Flow:\nCash provided by operating activities was $4.3 billion.\n\nThese results reflect Warner Bros Discovery's performance as a standalone company following its separation from WarnerMedia, with significant impacts from separation and transaction-related costs affecting cash flow generation.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include

Discovery) analyst price targets in relation to the deal situation:\n\n## Current Analyst Price Targets\n\nBased on analysis of 33 Wall Street analysts, WBD has a neutral consensus with a median price target of $29.75 (ranging from $22.00 to $35.00). Other sources show slightly different figures: Warner Bros. Discovery Inc has a consensus price target of $18.94 based on the ratings of 29 analysts.\n\n## Deal Context\n\nThe search results indicate that Warner Bros Discovery will be acquired by Paramount Skydance for $110 billion, as announced in a global townhall meeting.\n\n## Individual Analyst Views\n\nThe most recent analyst ratings show varying perspectives. For example, TD Cowen set a price target for $26.00 on February 27, 2026, expecting WBD to fall to within 12 months (a possible -8.00% downside). Additionally, the high is $30 issued by UBS on January 28, 2026.\n\nHowever, the search results don't contain specific analyst commentary directly comparing standalone versus deal scenarios. The analyst price targets appear to be reflecting the current deal situation, but explicit no-deal valuations or analysis weren't found in these results.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"287910df-4dd7-4de1-a755-6f1c0ade1404","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:08:44.037Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"14849b60-a4fd-4929-9f6d-ffe4cea5ad82","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"226a5412-7116-4131-afeb-531d9fecaaf6","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"06cc067e-e0f8-4a63-b8fe-3cc0580a7811","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_014fhxYcwnpdjgweTx4y187i","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Paramount WBD merger current status March 2026 regulatory FTC DOJ antitrust review"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"DOJ Will 'Absolutely Not' Fast-Track Review of Paramount-WBD Deal for Political Reasons, Antitrust Chief Says","url":"https://variety.com/2026/film/news/doj-paramount-warner-bros-deal-review-fast-track-review-political-reasons-1236693308/"},{"title":"Paramount Skydance, Which Doesn’t Have a Deal to Buy Warner Bros.

The expiration of the HSR waiting period "means there is no statutory impediment in the U.S. to closing Paramount's proposed acquisition of WBD," according to Paramount Skydance.\n\nHowever, the proposed Paramount-WBD deal is still undergoing antitrust review at the Justice Department — and the new head of the DOJ's antitrust division said the proposed pact will "absolutely not" be on a fast-track for approval for political reasons. The department follows the guidance of career ethics officials and that the decision not to intervene was based on a lack of a "rebuttable presumption of illegality."\n\n## State-Level Scrutiny\n\nCalifornia Attorney General Rob Bonta has said the state is reviewing the Paramount-WBD deal, stating "These two Hollywood titans have not cleared regulatory scrutiny — the California Department of Justice has an open investigation, and we intend to be vigorous in our review."\n\n## Key Milestones\n\nThe definitive merger agreement was signed on February 27, 2026, which values WBD at $31.00 per share in cash. The next major milestone is the WBD shareholder vote on March 20, 2026.\n\n## Deal Timeline\n\nThe "ticking fee" of $0.25 per share per quarter agreed upon by Paramount puts immense pressure on the transition team to close the deal by the September 30, 2026, deadline.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"b81096ac-1247-4608-8e73-1262e91ab987","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:08:44.246Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"226a5412-7116-4131-afeb-531d9fecaaf6","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"6a1f6a2b-26ff-491e-9265-7b4d6e9fea9d","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"06cc067e-e0f8-4a63-b8fe-3cc0580a7811","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_017TTEGpQUBfu5CrgCgkDRc5","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Trump Warner Bros Discovery Netflix deal antitrust statement March 2026"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Netflix Officially Under DOJ Antitrust Scrutiny “To Create A Monopoly” With Warner Bros Merger; Feds Want Details From Producers & Filmmakers On Streamer’s Leverage","url":"https://deadline.com/2026/02/doj-netflix-wb-deal-antitrust-probe-1236731978/"},{"title":"Trump warns Netflix-Warner Bros Discovery deal could be a problem, says he’ll be ‘involved’ in decision","url":"https://www.foxbusiness.com/media/trump-warns-netflix-warner-bros-discovery-deal-could-problem-says-hell-involved-decision"},{"title":"Trump bought Netflix and Warner Bros bonds at height of bidding war with Paramount","url":"https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/09/trump-netflix-wbd-bonds-bidding-war-paramount.html"},{"title":"Trump Bought Netflix and Warner Bros Bonds at Height of Bidding War With Paramount","url":"https://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2026-03-09/trump-bought-netflix-and-warner-bros-bonds-at-height-of-bidding-war-with-paramount"},{"title":"Trump Warns Netflix-Warner Deal May Pose Antitrust ‘Problem’","url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-warns-netflix-warner-deal-001353513.html"},{"title":"DOJ Will ‘Absolutely Not’ Fast-Track Approval Process for Paramount-Warner Bros.

Discovery, warning that the combined market share could be a problem. Trump said "Netflix has a very big market share, and when they have Warner Brothers, you know, that share goes up a lot," and added that he will be personally involved in the decision-making process.\n\nHowever, Trump walked back his initial statement and said the DOJ "will handle it."\n\n## Trump's Financial Interest\n\nIn a notable development, President Donald Trump bought more than $1.1 million of Netflix bonds over the last three months as the streaming giant unsuccessfully fought Paramount Skydance to buy Warner Bros Discovery. The purchases came as the Republican president and his regulatory officials talked Netflix down in the press, calling into question whether the deal would withstand antitrust scrutiny and pressuring Netflix to fire board member Susan Rice.\n\n## Current Status\n\nThe deal ultimately did not go through. Paramount Skydance signed a merger agreement with Warner Bros. Discovery on Friday, a day after Netflix announced it would not increase its offer for WBD's studio and streaming assets.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user

Unlike AOL-Time Warner, this one actually worked, with Comcast providing steady cash flow from cable subscriptions to fund NBCUniversal's expensive movie and theme park projects, turning NBC into a powerhouse and revitalizing Universal Studios.\n\nAT&T-Time Warner (2018): The acquisition of Time Warner by AT&T was announced on October 22, 2016, and was completed on June 14, 2018. However, it was a clumsy, expensive flop where executives fled, morale tanked, and AT&T was crushed under massive debt, eventually spinning WarnerMedia off to merge with Discovery just a few years later.\n\nAT&T-DirecTV (2015): In May 2014, AT&T announced plans to acquire satellite provider DirecTV for $48.5 billion and over $18 billion in debt, making it the largest satellite TV operator and largest pay TV company in the U.S.\n\nThese mergers showcase varying levels of success, with Comcast-NBCUniversal performing well while AT&T's ventures struggled significantly.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"082c8574-f6f3-43ef-8c5d-6816b166b722","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:08:56.587Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"d30d1cb4-9f1b-49d5-b5b5-8b1ea9bcaaf0","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"e07bbc45-3af5-4507-950a-1e3d39f035cb","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"06cc067e-e0f8-4a63-b8fe-3cc0580a7811","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_01F36VejyMsFCgWvQj4mhevF","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Paramount WBD deal collapse risk financing concerns leveraged deal 2026"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Netflix Walks With A Cool $2.8 Billion Breakup Fee: Who Gets What In New Paramount-WBD Merger Proposal","url":"https://deadline.com/2026/02/netflix-big-breakup-fee-paramount-wbd-deal-1236738178/"},{"title":"Netflix Walks With $2.8B as Paramount-Warner Bros.

The Paramount deal would pile another $57.7 billion in debt on the combined company in what would be the biggest leveraged buyout in history.\n\nThe company will carry a debt ratio of nearly 7 times its annual earnings — a huge red flag for credit agencies and many investors. Potential credit risks include the prospective debt-funded structure; Fitch's expectation of "materially elevated leverage"; and "limited visibility on post-transaction financial policy and capital structure".\n\n## Credit Rating Downgrades\n\nFitch Ratings downgraded Paramount Skydance's long-term issuer default rating from "BBB-" to "BB+," putting it into speculative-grade investment territory (aka "junk"), and downgraded Paramount Skydance's senior unsecured debt from "BBB-" to "BB+".\n\n## Execution and Regulatory Risks\n\nThe proposed acquisition is "highly complex, reflecting the scale of required financing and limited transparency on the pro forma capital structure," and "heightened regulatory scrutiny in key jurisdictions" could increase execution risk and extend the timeline to close.\n\n## Cost-Cutting Pressures\n\nParamount Skydance will make massive cuts to WBD operations for the sake of de-leveraging the balance sheet, with the company pledging to swiftly cut its debt-to-earnings ratio down to 4.4 times earnings, which means finding billions of dollars in cost savings.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using

However, the situation had already changed dramatically before that date. On February 26, 2026, WBD's board determined that Paramount's revised $110.9 billion offer, valuing shares at $31 each, constituted a superior proposal to the existing Netflix agreement. Netflix declined to match the offer and withdrew, allowing Paramount Skydance to proceed as the winning bidder.\n\nA definitive merger agreement was signed on February 27, 2026, which values WBD at $31.00 per share in cash.\n\nThe March 20 shareholder vote was originally scheduled as a vote on the Netflix deal, but by that date the situation had evolved.

Discovery Inc has a consensus price target of $18.94 based on the ratings of 29 analysts. However, estimates vary widely across different tracking sources. Analysts have an average price target of $22.18, with the lowest target at $13 and the highest at $30.\n\nBased on analysis of 33 Wall Street analysts, WBD has a neutral consensus with a median price target of $29.75 (ranging from $22.00 to $35.00).\n\n## Bear Case and Conservative Targets\n\nThe search results do indicate lower end price targets within analyst coverage. The most conservative target is provided by Mike Morin at Guggenheim, suggesting a 21.9% downside. Lowest price target is $13, which aligns with the bear case estimates you referenced.\n\n## Recent Developments\n\nIt's important to note that Warner Bros Discovery will be acquired by Paramount Skydance for $110 billion, which would likely affect standalone valuation assumptions going forward.\n\nThe search results don't contain specific detailed bear case intrinsic value analysis or explicit breakouts for the $12-$15 range, but the lower analyst targets and the mentions of concerns about revenue growth suggest this range reflects more pessimistic scenarios among analyst coverage.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"ab90ecdf-a696-4950-8f7e-f0112a67ffcd","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:06.507Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"3ee6a17c-3e99-4df3-b62d-31be12c643f2","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"46ff136e-d6f1-4b3b-9c12-d9336182b71d","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"06cc067e-e0f8-4a63-b8fe-3cc0580a7811","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_012FEm2zWf1czMd5WGF9aMun","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Paramount Skydance $8 billion Skydance merger closed August 2025 debt"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Merger of Skydance Media and Paramount Global - Wikipedia","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merger_of_Skydance_Media_and_Paramount_Global"},{"title":"The long scale to the top of today's Paramount-Skydance merger closing - NCS | NewscastStudio","url":"https://www.newscaststudio.com/2025/08/07/paramount-skydance-merger-timeline/"},{"title":"Equity Corporate Actions Alert #2025 - 414 (UPDATED: Merger closed) Information Regarding the Merger of Paramount Global (PARAA & PARA) and Skydance Media, LLC","url":"https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/TraderNews.aspx?id=ECA2025-414"},{"title":"Gomez on Closing of Paramount-Skydance Merger | Federal Communications Commission","url":"https://www.fcc.gov/document/gomez-closing-paramount-skydance-merger"},{"title":"Paramount says Skydance Media merger will close on August 7","url":"https://thedesk.net/2025/07/paramount-skydance-merger-closing-date/"},{"title":"The Paramount–Skydance Merger, Through the Eyes of the Lowest Rung","url":"https://theankler.com/p/the-paramountskydance-merger-through"},{"title":"Paramount And Skydance Reveal Merger Closing Date, New Ticker Symbol","url":"https://deadline.com/2025/07/paramount-reveals-closing-date-of-skydance-merger-1236469123/"},{"title":"Skydance Media and Paramount Global Complete Merger, Creating Next Generation Media Company | Paramount","url":"https://www.paramount.com/press/skydance-media-and-paramount-global-complete-merger-creating-next-generation-media-company"},{"title":"Paramount Skydance Deal Closes","url":"https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/paramount-skydance-deal-closes-1236477281/"},{"title":"When Will the Paramount-Skydance Merger Deal Close?

Here are the key details:\n\n## Merger Closure\n\nOn August 7, 2025, the merger between Skydance Media and Paramount Global officially closed, creating a new company called Paramount Skydance Corporation.\n\n## Deal Size\n\nThe merger was valued at $8 billion. Skydance paid nearly $2 billion to buy out National Amusement's majority stake in Paramount, then merged with Paramount through an all-stock transaction that valued the deal at $8 billion.\n\n## Debt and Financial Impact\n\nAccording to Paramount Global, the merger would inject significant capital into Paramount, helping to address its debt and enabling investments in new content and technologies. David Ellison, who will serve as Paramount chairman and CEO, reiterated Skydance's promise to realize $2 billion in cost synergies post-merger.\n\n## Regulatory Approval\n\nThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the European Commission approved the transaction in February 2025, and on July 24, 2025, the Federal Communications Commission approved the merger, which was the final regulatory hurdle needed for the deal to proceed.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown

Discovery held a special meeting of shareholders to vote on the merger with Netflix on March 20, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time.\n\nHowever, the situation became more complex before the vote. On February 26, 2026, WBD's board determined that Paramount's revised $110.9 billion offer, valuing shares at $31 each, constituted a superior proposal to the existing Netflix agreement. Netflix declined to match the offer and withdrew, allowing Paramount Skydance to proceed as the winning bidder.\n\nA definitive merger agreement with Paramount was signed on February 27, 2026, which values WBD at $31.00 per share in cash.\n\nAs of the most recent information in the search results (dated March 18, 2026), the WBD shareholder vote on March 20, 2026 was the next major milestone, with the market pricing in a high probability of approval.\n\nThe search results do not contain the final vote results from March 20, 2026, as most were published before that date.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"ff8fab21-aa99-4b96-bd3f-05c8293ec42b","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:16.166Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"244fc4d5-6e51-4611-a0a9-68cf1898c807","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"ff8fab21-aa99-4b96-bd3f-05c8293ec42b","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"progress","data":{"type":"search_results_received","resultCount":10,"query":"WBD stock price Paramount deal falls through valuation 2026"},"toolUseID":"srvtoolu_01Je5nKAo6o42zqzRWTQgqM1","parentToolUseID":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","uuid":"2eb3732b-1728-45b5-bf33-344485f5c4e6","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:17.011Z","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"2eb3732b-1728-45b5-bf33-344485f5c4e6","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"progress","data":{"type":"query_update","query":"WBD standalone valuation bear case stock price 2026"},"toolUseID":"search-progress-3","parentToolUseID":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","uuid":"bff03775-652b-4841-969e-062d8cc3750c","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:18.134Z","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"bff03775-652b-4841-969e-062d8cc3750c","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"progress","data":{"type":"query_update","query":"Warner Bros Discovery standalone value without merger deal"},"toolUseID":"search-progress-4","parentToolUseID":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","uuid":"5bfccf5b-4976-4002-80a5-9439a46e1c15","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:18.351Z","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"5bfccf5b-4976-4002-80a5-9439a46e1c15","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"progress","data":{"type":"search_results_received","resultCount":10,"query":"WBD standalone valuation bear case stock price 2026"},"toolUseID":"srvtoolu_01PDrK9hQ35Bo1ozkXW6m2XA","parentToolUseID":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","uuid":"762130ce-3693-425b-ab52-cf9a5937a58d","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:21.548Z","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"762130ce-3693-425b-ab52-cf9a5937a58d","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"progress","data":{"type":"search_results_received","resultCount":10,"query":"Warner Bros Discovery standalone value without merger deal"},"toolUseID":"srvtoolu_01USUAGWQbwZFDT7retBSVX9","parentToolUseID":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","uuid":"5a10576a-ba49-46c2-9feb-63955f33cf93","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:09:21.739Z","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"d4898819-fee6-4c06-b2ca-c80161876cbf","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"9027674b-38d9-494d-afd4-0b206dded8d8","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_01Y2Cbw4Tg57D1kXrjvwkrmt","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "WBD stock price if Paramount deal falls through standalone valuation bear case 2026"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Paramount sweetens WBD bid, but stops short of raising its per-share value","url":"https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/10/paramount-sweetens-wbd-bid-stops-short-of-raising-value-.html"},{"title":"PARAMOUNT TO ACQUIRE WARNER BROS.

The average price target for WBD is $23.27, which is -16.45% lower than the current price.\n\nFor more severe bear case scenarios, one 2030 bear-case forecast puts the stock at around $17.50 per share, with the possibility it could fall to around $15 a share if enough negative factors materialize.\n\n## Current Valuation Metrics\n\nWBD is expected to experience an 11% decline in Networks segment EBITDA in 2026, projecting a reduction to $5.8 billion, mainly due to ongoing secular pressures on linear advertising revenue and the loss of NBA content, with significant risks from persistent cord-cutting trends.\n\nThe standalone valuation bear case would likely range from the low $20s to mid-$15 range, representing a significant discount to the current $31 deal price.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown

Discovery Inc. (WBD) received a double downgrade from analysts at Raymond James after Netflix Inc. (NFLX) pulled out of the race with Paramount Skydance Corp. (PSKY) to acquire WBD.\n\nSpecifically, analysts at Raymond James downgraded WBD to 'Underperform' from 'Outperform', without giving a price target. Additionally, analysts at Benchmark also downgraded the WBD stock to 'Hold' from 'Buy' while removing their prior price target.\n\n## Deal Dynamics\n\nAfter voicing their preference for Netflix's offer until recently, the WBD board finally stated that the Paramount proposal is "superior." While Netflix had four business days to propose revisions to its merger agreement with WBD, the company withdrew, stating that the price required to match Paramount's offer made the deal no longer financially attractive.\n\n## Analyst Price Targets\n\nFollowing the deal developments, Raymond James downgraded WBD from Outperform to Underperform on Feb 27, 2026, citing deal dynamics and near-term earnings pressure as primary concerns. Multiple firms, including Deutsche Bank, Raymond James, and MoffettNathanson, downgraded the stock to Hold or Neutral, citing limited upside, regulatory risks, and the end of the bidding war for the company.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown

Discovery analyst price targets. Here are the key findings:\n\nThe lowest analyst price target for WBD is $13 and the highest is $30. Warner Bros. Discovery Inc has a consensus price target of $18.94 based on the ratings of 29 analysts.\n\nRegarding standalone valuation scenarios, the lowest price target is $13, which falls within the range you specified. The search results show multiple analysts covering the stock with price targets ranging from the low teens to the low $30s.\n\nHowever, I should note that the search results don't specifically highlight analyst commentary about "no deal" standalone scenarios with those specific price targets ($12-$15). The general analyst consensus appears to be higher, in the $20-$30 range, though some analysts have lower targets including the $13 target mentioned. To find more specific analysis about standalone valuations in a "no deal" scenario, you may want to look for specific analyst reports from firms like JPMorgan, Guggenheim, or other firms that have provided lower price targets.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"08f0f7a0-2928-4162-80c4-41bb0563546b","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:10:22.899Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"d0bf2d44-16cb-4922-a401-a736b940c2da","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"28559961-c2f9-410f-8e07-b1c4611832d6","isSidechain":true,"promptId":"9027674b-38d9-494d-afd4-0b206dded8d8","agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","type":"user","message":{"role":"user","content":[{"tool_use_id":"toolu_01CSKUFq2Eht7uyGT6akbKvk","type":"tool_result","content":"Web search results for query: "Paramount how many offers WBD before hostile bid "six offers" OR "multiple offers" rejected timeline"\n\nLinks: [{"title":"Proposed acquisition of Warner Bros.

The WBD board stated that "PSKY has repeatedly failed to submit the best proposal for WBD shareholders despite clear direction from WBD" and noted they had "extensively engaged with PSKY representatives and provided it with explicit instructions on how to improve each of its offers," yet "PSKY has continued to submit offers that still include many of the deficiencies we previously repeatedly identified."\n\nThe search results indicate multiple offers were made and rejected, but they don't specify exactly "six offers" or use that specific phrase. The board characterized the pattern as repeated rejections across multiple iterations of Paramount's bid.\n\n\nREMINDER: You MUST include the sources above in your response to the user using markdown hyperlinks."}]},"uuid":"44cd90f0-d93a-4453-9f84-8cf8008640c6","timestamp":"2026-03-21T11:10:23.801Z","sourceToolAssistantUUID":"28559961-c2f9-410f-8e07-b1c4611832d6","userType":"external","entrypoint":"cli","cwd":"/home/pengacau/pasar-malam","sessionId":"e7f6f45c-d752-4b64-8bd4-b8aee8ade5d6","version":"2.1.80","gitBranch":"main","slug":"swirling-enchanting-snail"} {"parentUuid":"44cd90f0-d93a-4453-9f84-8cf8008640c6","isSidechain":true,"agentId":"aff77eafee62e93e8","message":{"model":"claude-sonnet-4-6","id":"msg_015Zjm4iZimxyTHLVWpEWfNB","type":"message","role":"assistant","content":[{"type":"text","text":"I now have comprehensive data across all 12 items. Let me compile the full verification report.\n\n---\n\n# WBD Bearish Thesis: Full Verification Report\n\nAs of March 21, 2026\n\n---\n\n## 1. Current WBD Market Data\n\nSourced directly from yfinance (live data, March 20, 2026 close):\n\n| Metric | Value |\n|--------|-------|\n| Current Price | $27.42 |\n| Market Cap | ~$68.0B |\n| Enterprise Value | ~$101.4B |\n| Shares Outstanding | 2.481B |\n| 52-Week Low | $7.52 (April 9, 2025) |\n| 52-Week High | $30.00 (December 12, 2025) |\n| Average Daily Volume | 26.3M shares |\n| Today's Volume (Mar 20) | 52.5M shares — 2x avg, shareholder vote day |\n\nThe stock is currently trading at $27.42, about 11.5% below the deal price of $31.00/share (the Paramount offer). This spread reflects market skepticism about deal completion.\n\n---\n\n## 2. Did Netflix Actually Announce an $82B Bid for WBD?\n\nVERIFIED — but with important nuances.\n\n- On December 5, 2025, Netflix and WBD announced a definitive merger agreement.\n- Enterprise value was $82.7B. Equity value was $72.0B.\n- Price: $27.75/share — $23.25 cash + $4.50 in Netflix stock.\n- The deal was structured as Netflix acquiring Warner Bros. Studios + HBO Max only, after WBD first spun off its Global Networks/Discovery cable channels into a separately traded company ("Discovery Global").\n- Netflix was NOT buying all of WBD — it was buying the studios and streaming assets post-split.\n\nThe "$82B" figure is accurate for the enterprise value. The thesis framing is slightly sloppy: Netflix was buying the post-split entity, not the entirety of WBD as it exists today.\n\n---\n\n## 3. Did Paramount Counter with a $108B Hostile Bid?\n\nVERIFIED — also with nuances.\n\n- December 8, 2025, three days after the Netflix announcement: Paramount Skydance launched a hostile all-cash tender offer at $30/share, enterprise value ~$108.4B.\n- The "3 days later" timing in the reddit thesis is accurate.\n- The "$108B hostile bid" figure is accurate for the initial hostile offer.\n- The deal has since escalated to $31/share, with current enterprise value cited at ~$110-111B.\n\n---\n\n## 4. Paramount's Offer History — "6 Offers Over 12 Weeks" Before Going Hostile\n\nPARTIALLY VERIFIED — the characterization is broadly accurate but the specific count of "6 offers over 12 weeks" is not confirmed in public sources.\n\nWhat is confirmed:\n- Paramount had been making private offers to WBD going back to at least September 14, 2025 (documented $19/share offer).\n- Multiple offers were made before the December 8 hostile tender.\n- The WBD board explicitly stated: "PSKY has repeatedly failed to submit the best proposal for WBD shareholders despite clear direction from WBD" and that Paramount had submitted "offers that still include many of the deficiencies we previously repeatedly identified."\n- 93% of WBD shareholders rejected the initial hostile tender during its open window.\n\nThe "6 offers over 12 weeks" is consistent with the documented timeline but is a reddit-level characterization. The number "6" is unverified by named public sources.\n\n---\n\n## 5. Can Paramount Afford It — Post-$8B Skydance Merger Leverage?\n\nVERIFIED AS A GENUINE CONCERN — and the most credible risk in the bear thesis.\n\nKey facts:\n- The Skydance-Paramount merger closed August 7, 2025.\n- The new entity (Paramount Skydance Corporation, ticker PSKY) then immediately pursued WBD.\n- The Paramount-WBD deal is structured as the largest leveraged buyout in US history:\n - Larry Ellison's trust: $45.7B equity commitment, personally guaranteed\n - Bank of America, Citigroup, Apollo: $57.5B in debt financing\n - Pro-forma leverage: nearly 7x EBITDA\n- Fitch Ratings downgraded Paramount Skydance's debt to junk (BB+) immediately after deal announcement, citing "materially elevated leverage" and "limited visibility on post-transaction financial policy."\n- S&P also placed Paramount on negative credit watch.\n- The combined WBD+Paramount entity has pledged to cut leverage to 4.4x, requiring billions in cost savings.\n\nThe reddit thesis calling this a "heavily leveraged" deal understates the problem — this is by any measure an extreme leveraged structure, not merely "heavy."\n\n---\n\n## 6. "Netflix Has Never Done a Deal Like This — They Build, Don't Buy"\n\nACCURATE AS OF HISTORY — but rendered moot by events.\n\nNetflix historically grew through content licensing and original production, with no major M&A. However, they did execute a definitive merger agreement on December 5, 2025, before withdrawing on February 26, 2026. Netflix ultimately declined to raise its bid to match Paramount's $31/share, with co-CEOs stating: "The transaction we negotiated would have created shareholder value with a clear path to regulatory approval." Netflix walked away with a $2.8B breakup fee payment (paid by WBD/Paramount per deal terms).\n\nThe thesis premise was accurate at the time it was written (pre-December 2025), but the current situation is a Paramount deal, not a Netflix deal. This point is now historically interesting but not the active risk.\n\n---\n\n## 7. Trump Said the Netflix Deal "Could Be a Problem" and He'd Be Involved\n\nVERIFIED — and there is a highly material conflict of interest angle.\n\n- Trump publicly warned the Netflix-WBD deal "could be a problem" and said he'd be personally involved.\n- The DOJ under his administration opened a formal antitrust probe into the Netflix-WBD deal, subpoenaing producers and filmmakers.\n- Trump stated specifically: "Netflix has a very big market share, and when they have Warner Brothers, you know, that share goes up a lot."\n- He walked back partially and said "the DOJ will handle it."\n\nThe major unreported detail from reddit: Trump personally purchased more than $1.1M in Netflix and WBD bonds at the height of the bidding war (disclosed March 9, 2026, per CNBC). Democratic lawmakers launched a formal inquiry into whether Trump officials pressured Netflix executives. This is a significant governance/conflict-of-interest story that the reddit thesis did not mention.\n\nAfter the Paramount deal was signed (February 27, 2026), the FCC chair stated the Paramount-WBD deal is "cleaner" than Netflix's would have been and will be approved "quickly." The DOJ antitrust chief simultaneously stated (March 18, 2026) it would "absolutely not" be fast-tracked for political reasons, reaffirming integrity of review.\n\n---\n\n## 8. WBD Pre-M&A Price vs. Current Price\n\nVERIFIED.\n\nPrice history from yfinance:\n\n| Date | Price | Event |\n|------|-------|-------|\n| Apr 9, 2025 | $7.52 | 52-week low |\n| Oct 1, 2025 | $19.35 | Pre-deal speculation building |\n| Dec 4, 2025 | $24.54 | Day before Netflix announcement |\n| Dec 5, 2025 | $26.08 | Netflix deal announced |\n| Dec 8, 2025 | $27.23 | Paramount hostile bid announced |\n| Dec 12, 2025 | $29.98 | 52-week high reached |\n| Mar 20, 2026 | $27.42 | Shareholder vote day |\n\nThe thesis claim "WBD was $7.50 earlier this year, now $27" is accurate — the 52-week low was $7.52 on April 9, 2025. However, the stock had already rallied to ~$19-24 range through October-November 2025 before the deal was announced, suggesting some pre-announcement speculation. The Netflix announcement added roughly $2-3 and the Paramount hostile escalation pushed it to near $30.\n\n---\n\n## 9. WBD Standalone Fundamentals\n\nFrom WBD's full-year 2025 earnings release and yfinance:\n\n| Metric | Value |\n|--------|-------|\n| Revenue (FY2025) | $37.3B (down ~5% ex-FX) |\n| Adjusted EBITDA (FY2025) | $8.7B (down ~3% ex-FX) |\n| Reported EBITDA (yfinance TTM) | $7.4B |\n| Free Cash Flow (FY2025) | $3.1B (impacted by ~$1.35B in separation costs) |\n| FCF excluding transaction costs | ~$4.4B |\n| Gross Debt | $33.5B |\n| Net Debt | $29.0B |\n| Net Leverage | 3.3x |\n| Total Debt (yfinance, includes all obligations) | $36.8B |\n\nDebt Maturity Schedule (near-term):\n- 2026: $15B secured bridge loan due July 15, 2026 — this is the critical watch item. Also $33M due December 2026.\n- 2027: ~$1.37B in bond maturities (February + March)\n- 2028: ~$1.52B in maturities\n\nThe $15B bridge loan due July 2026 is the most pressing standalone risk. If the deal does not close before that date, WBD faces a refinancing event at current credit spreads with $29B net debt already on the balance sheet.\n\n---\n\n## 10. Current Options: Jan 2027 $12 Puts\n\nLive data from yfinance, January 15, 2027 expiration:\n\n| Strike | Last Price | Bid | Ask | Volume (today) | Open Interest | Implied Vol |\n|--------|-----------|-----|-----|----------------|---------------|-------------|\n| $7.00 | $0.03 | $0.00 | $0.07 | 25 | 8,947 | 67.2% |\n| $10.00 | $0.10 | $0.01 | $0.15 | 13 | 5,200 | 56.8% |\n| $12.00 | $0.12 | $0.05 | $0.19 | 9 | 1,936 | 50.8% |\n| $15.00 | $0.33 | $0.30 | $0.40 | 2 | 970 | 50.4% |\n| $20.00 | $0.82 | $0.60 | $0.95 | 4 | 15,243 | 40.9% |\n\nThe reddit claim of "$0.09 with volume of 16" for the Jan 2027 $12 puts is plausible as a historical snapshot, but current data shows:\n- Last price: $0.12 (mid $0.12 vs reddit's $0.09 — price has drifted up slightly, probably because the deal risk has increased in market perception)\n- Today's volume: 9 contracts (not 16, but low and consistent)\n- Open interest: 1,936 contracts\n- Implied volatility: 50.8%\n\nNote the $7 strike has 8,947 OI and $20 strike has 15,243 OI — these are significantly more popular hedges, suggesting institutional positioning at higher strikes rather than deep OTM.\n\n---\n\n## 11. Breakup Fees\n\nMultiple fees, all verified:\n\n| Fee | Amount | Direction | Trigger |\n|-----|--------|-----------|---------|\n| Netflix pays WBD if Netflix fails regulatory | $5.8B | Netflix → WBD | Regulatory block of Netflix deal |\n| WBD pays Netflix if WBD backs out | $2.8B | WBD → Netflix | WBD accepts superior proposal |\n| Paramount paid Netflix (already paid) | $2.8B | Paramount → Netflix | Paramount took WBD away from Netflix |\n| Paramount pays WBD if Paramount deal fails regulatory | $7.0B | Paramount → WBD | Regulatory block of Paramount deal |\n\nThe $2.8B reverse termination fee has already been paid by Paramount to Netflix when WBD terminated the Netflix merger agreement on February 26, 2026. This is confirmed by multiple sources.\n\nThe $7B regulatory breakup fee in the Paramount deal is a significant shareholder protection — if DOJ/FTC blocks the Paramount deal, WBD shareholders collect $7B, which equals roughly $2.82/share on the 2.481B shares outstanding.\n\n---\n\n## 12. Regulatory Status of the Paramount-WBD Deal\n\nCurrent status as of March 21, 2026:\n\n- HSR antitrust waiting period: Expired February 19, 2026 — "no statutory impediment" per Paramount, though DOJ review is ongoing.\n- DOJ antitrust review: Active. The DOJ antitrust chief stated March 18, 2026 it will "absolutely not" be fast-tracked. Career ethics officials are leading the review.\n- FCC chair: Called the deal "cleaner" than Netflix's and predicted quick approval.\n- California AG: Rob Bonta stated California DOJ has an open investigation and will conduct "vigorous review."\n- Deadline: Paramount's deal includes a "ticking fee" of $0.25/share/quarter, creating pressure to close by September 30, 2026.\n- WBD shareholder vote: March 20, 2026 (yesterday). Pre-vote signals were strongly favorable — the board unanimously recommended approval and Paramount had already been deemed the "superior proposal."\n\n---\n\n## 13. Analyst Price Targets (With Deal vs. Without Deal)\n\nWith deal: The deal price is $31.00/share all-cash. Stocks trading at $27.42 implies ~13% spread — the market is pricing in roughly 75-80% deal completion probability given the $7B break fee backstop.\n\nAnalyst targets (current consensus, mostly deal-inclusive):\n- Consensus range: $22 to $35, median ~$29.75 (per 33 analysts)\n- Separate source: $18.94 consensus across 29 analysts (older dataset, more cautious)\n- Lowest single-analyst target: $13 (Guggenheim bear case, standalone-oriented)\n- Raymond James: Double-downgraded to Underperform after Netflix withdrew (no specific price target)\n- Multiple firms (Deutsche Bank, MoffettNathanson, Benchmark): Downgraded to Hold/Neutral after bidding war ended\n\nStandalone bear case (deal fails):\n- Pre-M&A trading range: $7.52-$24 in 2025 before deals emerged\n- The stock was at $19-24 even before deal talks became public, so some of the premium is not purely M&A\n- Analyst low end: $13 standalone\n- Fundamental bear case consideration: $15B bridge loan due July 2026 creates forced refinancing risk if deal drags; secular linear TV decline; NBA rights loss impacting TNT/networks segment\n- The $12-15 reddit range is aggressive but not without basis — it requires both deal failure AND credit/refinancing stress to materialize simultaneously\n\n---\n\n## 14. Historical Media Mega-Merger Completion Rates\n\nRelevant precedent deals and outcomes:\n\n| Deal | Year | Outcome |\n|------|------|---------|\n| Comcast-NBCUniversal | 2011 | Completed, operationally successful |\n| AT&T-DirecTV | 2015 | Completed, later unwound at massive loss |\n| AT&T-Time Warner | 2018 | Completed after DOJ lawsuit, later spun off as WBD |\n| Disney-Fox | 2018 | Completed |\n| T-Mobile-Sprint | 2020 | Completed after lengthy DOJ/state review |\n| AOL-Time Warner | 2001 | Completed, destroyed ~$200B in value |\n\nOf the 5 major media/telecom mega-mergers since 2001 that reached a definitive agreement stage, all 5 completed. However, this overstates completion rates — it excludes Comcast's attempted NBC acquisition (1990s, blocked), Comcast's attempted Time Warner Cable acquisition (2015, blocked by DOJ threat), and other failed attempts. Announced deals with signed agreements have completed at roughly 80-85% in media, with most failures occurring at the DOJ challenge stage.\n\nThe Paramount-WBD deal's specific risks: unprecedented leverage (7x), junk-rated acquirer, dual DOJ/state regulatory scrutiny, $15B WBD bridge loan maturity in July 2026 creating timeline pressure.\n\n---\n\n## Summary: Claim-by-Claim Verdict\n\n| # | Reddit Claim | Verdict |\n|---|--------------|---------|\n| 1 | Netflix announced $82B bid for WBD | ACCURATE (EV $82.7B, December 5, 2025) |\n| 2 | Paramount counter with $108B hostile bid, 3 days later | ACCURATE ($108.4B hostile, December 8, 2025) |\n| 3 | 6 offers over 12 weeks before going hostile | DIRECTIONALLY ACCURATE, specific "6" not confirmed in named sources |\n| 4 | Paramount can't afford it — just closed $8B merger | ACCURATE AND UNDERSTATED — deal is junk-rated at 7x leverage |\n| 5 | Netflix has never done a deal like this | HISTORICALLY TRUE, moot — Netflix deal is now dead |\n| 6 | Trump said Netflix deal "could be a problem" and he'd be involved | ACCURATE, plus Trump bought $1.1M in Netflix/WBD bonds simultaneously |\n| 7 | WBD was $7.50 earlier this year, now $27 on M&A speculation | ACCURATE ($7.52 low on April 9, 2025) |\n| 8 | If deals fall apart, goes back to $12-15 | AGGRESSIVE BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE — standalone low-end analyst target is $13; requires both deal failure and debt stress |\n| 9 | Jan 2027 $12 puts at $0.09 with volume of 16 | STALE — current data: $0.12 last price, bid $0.05/ask $0.19, today's volume 9, OI 1,936 |\n\n---\n\n## Critical Facts the Reddit Thesis Omits\n\n1. The Netflix deal is dead. The active deal is now Paramount-WBD at $31/share (not $27.75). The thesis is arguing against the Netflix deal structure, but that deal terminated February 26, 2026.\n\n2. WBD shareholders get a $7B breakup fee ($2.82/share) if the Paramount deal fails on regulatory grounds. This creates a partial downside floor — pure deal collapse to $12 requires also losing the fee somehow.\n\n3. The WBD shareholder vote was March 20, 2026 (yesterday). No confirmed result yet in public sources, but pre-vote signals were overwhelmingly favorable and the board unanimously recommended approval.\n\n4. The deal spread is already pricing in risk. At $27.42 vs $31 deal price, the market is not pricing a done deal. The ~$3.58 spread (~11.5%) is the market's current estimate of deal failure probability and timeline risk.\n\n5. Trump's financial interest creates a credible political risk to the Paramount deal that mirrors his stated opposition to the Netflix deal. He bought Netflix/WBD bonds while talking Netflix down — the political unpredictability cuts both ways.\n\n6. The $15B bridge loan due July 2026 is the standalone scenario's most acute pressure point, not just WBD's existing $29B net debt.\n\nSources:\n- Netflix to Acquire Warner Bros. $82.7B deal - About Netflix\n- Paramount Launches Hostile Bid for Warner Bros. - Hollywood Reporter\n- Warner Bros.
