Discovery is anti-competitive, will lay off thousands of workers, raise prices and create a debt-laden behemoth forced to slash costs aggressively to have any hope of servicing that debt. In short, the math doesn\u2019t work \u2014 for anybody.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=458\">\u2018Spider-Noir\u2019 Review: Nicolas Cage\u2019s Eccentricities Boost By-the-Numbers Storytelling in Amazon\u2019s Spider-Man-Adjacent Drama<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe combined company would begin life carrying roughly $79 billion in debt while generating only $3 billion in annual free cash flow. The deal is being sold by David Ellison and David Zaslav as a necessary answer to the modern streaming era: more scale, larger libraries, broader distribution and stronger franchises as <em>Star Trek<\/em> and <em>Top Gun<\/em> meets <em>Game of Thrones<\/em>, <em>Superman<\/em> and <em>Harry Potter<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBut scale only works when it is built on a solid financial footing. Scale in this deal will devastate both studios.\u00a0Here, rather than economies of scale, the opposite would arguably happen. The merger risks producing a company so burdened by debt that it becomes less able to invest in films, television, streaming, sports, output deals and creative talent than either company is on its own. The sole mission of the new company will be to service its debt.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHollywood has already spent the last decade chasing consolidation. The results haven\u2019t been stellar.\u00a0When The Walt Disney Company acquired 21st Century Fox in 2019, Disney\u2019s leverage rose to roughly 2.8 times EBITDA (lower is better). When Discovery, Inc. merged with WarnerMedia in 2021, leverage climbed to about 4.3 times EBITDA. Both deals were heavily criticized as over-leveraged at the time. This proposed Paramount\u2013Warner Bros. combination would begin at approximately <em>6.5 times<\/em> EBITDA. That is an entirely different level of financial strain. Paramount recently said it plans to lower this to 3 times EBITDA by fiscal 2029, but that seems doubtful given the level of debt and lack of free cashflow.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe timing makes the situation even more concerning. Disney struck its deal when interest rates were low and capital was abundant. Discovery completed its transaction during an era of near-zero Treasury yields. Today\u2019s environment is markedly different. Borrowing costs are materially higher, credit markets are tighter and Paramount\u2019s debt has already been downgraded by two of the three major rating agencies. The company has an enormous short-term bridge loan \u2014 approximately $49 billion \u2014 that will need to be refinanced in approximately 10 months. That creates a dangerous dependency. If financing conditions worsen, the company could have few options.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe cash demands are enormous. Annual interest expense alone could reach $5 billion\u2013$6 billion on the $79 billion of debt. That\u2019s nearly half of the company\u2019s projected $12 billion EBITDA. Add another $3 billion\u2013$5 billion annually for film and television production, $3 billion\u2013$4 billion for streaming content and technology, and roughly $2 billion\u2013$3 billion in merger integration expenses. I\u2019m not even counting here the massive chunk that the NFL will take when it renegotiates its lucrative sports rights deal with Paramount.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAnd that is all before meaningful debt repayment, which will become a matter of life-and-death for the company.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAs a result, before realizing savings and paying down principal, the company might not be able to service existing debt and might need to go the other way and keep borrowing more and more simply to maintain operations and make interest payments. A plausible path is debt rising from roughly $79 billion at closing to $83 billion \u2013 $85 billion within the first year, potentially approaching or exceeding $90 billion within three years, because they cannot pay down principal, and even higher if cost savings arrive slowly or operating conditions weaken.\u00a0This is the media leverage trap: a company merges to gain scale, but the cost of carrying the debt absorbs the cash flow that scale was supposed to create. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe impact on the industry will be damaging. In a leveraged buy out like this, the first two steps are to fire\u00a0people and raise\u00a0prices.\u00a0With the indebted companies combining, the immediate ramifications will be greater job losses\u00a0across both studios.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen Disney closed its $71.3 billion acquisition of Fox, there were about $2 billion in synergies. From that, based on the financial models I\u2019ve run, total job losses I\u2019d estimate to be around 14,000. Of those, 4,000 were direct employees and another 10,000-plus we\u2019ll call indirect workers. Those are the people who support\u00a0or work making films and television. Productions\u00a0rely on these outside contractors and vendors, gig workers, security, caterers, VFX houses, soundstage owners, below-the-line workers and more.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen Ellison\u2019s Skydance closed on a deal for Shari Redstone\u2019s Paramount Global last August, the companies projected $2 billion in synergies, including 2,000 to 3,500\u00a0direct job cuts. That number will increase as Skydance keeps downsizing due to the next merger with Warner Bros.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tParamount\u2019s potential acquisition of\u00a0Warner Bros. Discovery is projected\u00a0in public filings to have around $6 billion in synergies. The financial models that I\u2019ve run are projecting 10,000-plus direct\u00a0employees of the companies and tens of thousands more in indirect workers hit by the fallout of consolidation.\u00a0And if it turns out that Ellison\u2019s 30-movie-a-year pledge doesn\u2019t work out and the movie theater chains lose product, the job reductions will only increase.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=456\">The \u201cCanceled\u201d Man in Charge: Mike Richards Takes the Wheel at The Daily Wire<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tThat projected $6 billion in synergies over three years from the Paramount acquisition of WBD is arguably unrealistic.\u00a0 In most leveraged buyouts, the acquirer doesn\u2019t even reach half of the projected numbers.\u00a0Savings of $6 billion are roughly equivalent to firing 10,000 low and mid-level workers.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tEven if they somehow reached the $6 billion in synergies, it would not make a dent in their newly created debt problem.\u00a0Again, the combined company would carry $79 billion in debt. To state the obvious, for a company the size of Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery, potentially cutting 10,000 employees itself is a massive number. That\u2019s not \u201ctrimming.\u201d That\u2019s cutting deep into operating capacity,\u00a0nor is it standard and customary cuts and job reduction. At that level, you\u2019re not just lowering costs \u2014 you\u2019re inevitably reshaping output, slate size and how the company functions day to day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNot only is this deal bad for the merging companies, but it creates broader problems for the industry as a whole.\u00a0The traditional studio model already faces immense pressure from fragmented audiences, rising production costs, declining television economics and an increasingly brutal streaming market. In that environment, balance-sheet flexibility matters more than ever. Companies need room to invest, experiment, absorb failures, and support long-term creative development.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThis merger moves in the opposite direction. It would create a company where preserving the capital structure could become more important than investing in the product itself. Fewer films will be greenlit. Fewer creative risks will be taken. Mid-budget productions will disappear. Creative decisions will be replaced with financial calculations designed to maximize short-term cash generation rather than long-term franchise-building or artistic quality.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe result is worse for the consumer and worse for the economy.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen Disney acquired Fox we went from six major studios to five. If the Paramount WBD transaction isn\u2019t blocked, we would go to effectively to four majors, because two of them would be controlled by a single owner. Do we realistically think they will compete with each other? Does going from six to four major studios foster competition, or is it blatantly anticompetitive? The answers are obvious.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSupporters of the deal describe it as a bold attempt to build scale for the streaming era. But scale financed by extreme leverage is not strength. It is fragility disguised as ambition.\u00a0 And when two heavily indebted media companies combine into one even more indebted company, we know how this movie ends: years of massive layoffs, restructuring, reduced production, increased prices for the consumer, and financial retrenchment.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tGulf sovereign wealth funds recently pushed for significantly more attractive economics in exchange for providing needed capital, $24 billion.\u00a0Now, with preferred pricing, caps on the price they pay, plus warrants provided as a sweetener, foreign sovereign wealth funds could end up owning approximately 50 percent of the two combined premier major studios and be the largest equity stakeholder.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhat we\u2019ll see if this deal goes through is fewer buyers for scripts.\u00a0Fewer films greenlit.\u00a0Less competition for talent (actors, directors, people).\u00a0On the back end, a single company controlling a deeper library and two major streaming services \u2014 Paramount+ and HBO Max \u2014 can decide where titles go, how long they stay in theaters, and who else gets access.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThere is an uncomfortable truth in this business that rarely gets said out loud: The company that controls distribution ultimately controls the market. I\u2019ve watched more films succeed or fail in the margins of distribution strategy than in development rooms.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tGreenlights matter. Budgets matter. But distribution \u2014 the ability to reach audiences at scale, on fair and open terms \u2014 is the oxygen of this industry. When a single company gains excessive leverage over theatrical booking, cable carriage, or streaming visibility, the system tilts. And once it tilts, it rarely tilts back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<em>Joseph M. Singer is a former investment banker.
