Paramount Raises $7.5B Debt for Warner Bros. Merger
Paramount Global has launched a syndication for a proposed $7.4 billion senior secured incremental term loan, part of a larger plan to raise approximately $44.4 billion in additional secured debt. This financing is intended to fund the $110 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. The company will use the proceeds, along with cash on hand and previously announced equity financing, to pay the purchase price and repay existing debt. The deal was previously paused in July due to antitrust concerns but cleared after Paramount settled with California Attorney General Rob Bonta and 11 other states. CEO David Ellison expects the deal to finalize within two weeks. Morgan Stanley analysts estimate the combined company's net debt at $77.2 billion.
Uber's Delivery Hero Acquisition Faces EU Antitrust Scrutiny
The European Commission's Directorate-General for Competition (DG COMP) is examining Uber's planned acquisition of Delivery Hero, a deal valued at around €13 billion. The scrutiny focuses on whether to assess the main acquisition and the parallel sale of Delivery Hero's operations in 14 countries to SSW Partners jointly or separately. Uber is financing a large portion of SSW's €1.4 billion purchase of those markets. Industry players are lobbying regulators, and MEP Andreas Schwab has called for careful assessment. The deal involves Uber offering €41.50 per share for Delivery Hero, with an equity value of approximately $14.8 billion, and is expected to close in the second half of 2027. Regulatory approvals are required in several jurisdictions, including South Korea, the Middle East, and Latin America, with concerns remaining in Spain.
