华纳兄弟探索公司在多重收购提议中考虑出售
摘要
华纳兄弟探索公司正在评估战略选择，包括潜在出售，此前收到多项收购提议，尤其是来自派拉蒙全球的报价。
华纳兄弟探索公司在收到多项收购提议后，正在评估战略选择，包括潜在出售。派拉蒙全球在过去一个月内提出了三次报价，但均被拒绝。最新的报价于10月13日提出，建议以每股23.50美元的现金和股票支付，较华纳兄弟探索公司初次报价前的股价溢价52%。针对这些未经请求的报价，华纳兄弟探索公司于周二宣布启动战略选择审查，考虑部分或全部公司出售。公司表示，此决定是由“多方的未经请求的兴趣”促成的。派拉蒙首席执行官大卫·埃里森强调合并的潜在好处，表示：“我们有信心成为华纳兄弟探索公司的最佳合作伙伴，两家公司的结合将打造一个规模化的好莱坞巨头，惠及双方股东、消费者及整个娱乐产业。”拟议的收购将合并两大好莱坞制片厂华纳兄弟和派拉蒙，并整合流媒体服务HBO Max和Paramount+，对媒体格局产生重大影响。华纳兄弟探索公司继续探索各种选项，包括此前宣布的计划，即在2026年中之前将公司拆分为两个独立实体。
