Paramount Skydance Announces Departure of Jeff Shell as President Paramount Skydance Corporation announced that Jeff Shell is officially departing his role as president of Paramount Skydance. His ouster follows a public dispute and messy legal battle with R.J. Cipriani, a professional gambler who asserts that Shell owes him $150 million for crisis communications services and alleges the exec shared confidential information about Paramount Skydance. This is Shell’s second high-profile exit in three years from a major media company. Shell was hired by Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison in July 2024, less than two years after he was fired as CEO of NBCUniversal. In April 2023, he was let go by Comcast, the studio’s parent company, after an internal investigation found he had engaged in an “inappropriate” relationship with an employee; the person had filed a complaint against Shell for sexual harassment and sex discrimination.

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings. The company is paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Dividend yield: 2.3% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. However, this risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by cash flows. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.6x net interest cover). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (68% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risk Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Upcoming Dividend • Mar 09

Comcast, Paramount, Netflix Reportedly Near Bids for Warner Bros. Discovery Comcast Corporation (NasdaqGS:CMCSA), Paramount Skydance Corporation (NasdaqGS:PSKY) and Netflix, Inc. (NasdaqGS:NFLX) are all preparing their own bids for some or all of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NasdaqGS:WBD), according to people familiar with the matter. First-round bids are due in the coming weeks, according to one person familiar with the situation. Semafor could not confirm an exact date, but sources told The Wall Street Journal, which first reported the news, that the deadline is Nov. 20. WBD is composed of two distinct units: one covering its streaming service and studios, and one housing its cable businesses, including CNN and TNT. Comcast and Netflix are only interested in a narrower bid for just the streaming-and-studios half, while David Ellison’s Paramount still wants to buy the whole thing, the people said. Paramount offered $23.50 per share, biased heavily towards cash, in its most recent of multiple repeated offers, Semafor can confirm. CNBC earlier reported the value of Paramount’s bid. The price that Netflix or Comcast would be willing to pay for their narrower pursuits couldn’t be learned. Spokespeople for WBD, Comcast and Paramount declined to comment. A spokesperson for Netflix didn’t immediately return requests for comment. Comcast’s Mike Cavanagh, who will assume the role of co-CEO in the new year, indicated on the company’s most recent earnings call that the conglomerate would only be interested in acquiring theme park or streaming assets. Combining Peacock’s content library with that of HBO and Discovery+ would instantly vault Comcast’s streaming ambitions into the big leagues. People close to the company told Semafor that Comcast executives believe they would not suffer from significant antitrust concerns in the US or in Europe if they were to tailor their pursuit to just HBO and studio assets. Comcast chairman and CEO Brian Roberts met with WBD’s David Zaslav several weeks ago, Semafor previously reported, a prelude to Comcast’s formal expression of interest in the company.

Paramount Skydance Reportedly Talking to Apollo, Buyout Firms to Join Possible $60 Billion Warner Bros. Discovery Bid Paramount Skydance Corporation (NasdaqGS:PSKY) chief David Ellison is in talks with major private equity firms to join his possible bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NasdaqGS:WBD) – a megadeal that could cost upwards of $60 billion, The Post has learned. Potential investors weighing the WBD deal include Apollo Global Management (Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE:APO)) – the buyout giant that in spring 2024 had made a $26 billion, debt-fueled offer for Paramount before ultimately losing that race to Skydance, people with direct knowledge of the situation said. Led by billionaire CEO Marc Rowan, Apollo already owns more than a dozen TV stations through its Cox Media Group as well as a major stake in Legendary Entertainment, a movie and TV production company. Apollo appears closest to helping Ellison with the bid, sources said. Billionaire Stephen Schwarzman’s Blackstone, which owns stakes in Hollywood firms including Candle Media – the outfit founded by ex-Disney bigwigs Kevin Mayer and Tom Staggs – has investigated a possible financing role but as of now not interested in participating, sources tell The Post. A Skydance spokeswoman had no comment; reps for Apollo and Blackstone had no comment. Paramount Skydance chief David Ellison is looking for fresh sources of capital as his dad Larry Ellison – who recently became the world’s second-richest person behind Elon Musk as stock of his software giant Oracle soared on forecasts of massive AI profits – appears nevertheless to have a limited appetite for media deals, insiders said. The leak of David’s intentions for an all-cash bid for WBD came on the heels of his $8 billion purchase of Paramount – a 13-month saga between him, Shari Redstone and the Trump administration that finally closed in August after 13 months. Then, only a month later, news leaked that David Ellison was exploring an all cash-bid for WBD, which in addition to the Warner Bros. studio owns HBO and CNN. But since then there has been eerie silence – and it’s because of the funding questions, insiders said. Meanwhile, the chatter about David Ellison leaning on his father’s checkbook is growing.

Paramount Skydance Reportedly Preparing Bid for Warner Bros Discovery Paramount Skydance Corporation (NasdaqGS:PSKY) is preparing a bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NasdaqGS:WBD), a source familiar with the matter told Reuters on September 11, 2025, potentially bringing together two storied Hollywood studios and reshaping the entertainment industry. A bid for Warner Bros Discovery would be backed by the Ellison family, which includes Skydance head David Ellison and his father, billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, according to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the news, citing unnamed sources. The audacious bid, coming just weeks after Skydance bought Paramount Global for $8.4 billion, would unite some of the best-known entertainment brands under a single corporate shingle, bringing together DC Comics superheroes like Superman and Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants, science-fiction franchises like "The Matrix" and "Star Trek" and two major news networks, CBS News and CNN. "This deal is the Hollywood equivalent of a sequel no one expected but everyone sort of saw coming," said eMarketer analyst Jeremy Goldman. No offer has been submitted and the plans could still fall apart, the WSJ reported. Still, shares of Warner Bros Discovery surged as much as 30% after the news while Paramount's jumped 15%. Paramount and Warner Bros declined to comment on the report. Warner Bros Discovery has been reorganizing its media business to split its declining cable television business from its studio and streaming units. Skydance, however, is seeking to acquire all of Warner Bros Discovery's media assets, including its Warner Bros film studio, HBO, and CNN, in a mostly cash deal, the WSJ reported. Annonce • Sep 11
