🎬 Paramount’s new offer for Warner Bros is not sufficient, major investor says

Paramount Skydance's latest offer to buy Warner Bros Discovery still is not good enough for prominent shareholder Harris Oakmark, the investor told Reuters on Friday.

Warner Bros' fifth largest shareholder, owning 96 million shares or about 4% of shares as of the end of September, said it would hold out for more from the Ellison family-controlled Paramount.

"The changes in Paramount's new offer were necessary, but not sufficient," Harris Oakmark portfolio manager and Director of U.S. Research Alex Fitch said in an email to Reuters.

"We see the two deals as a toss-up, and there is a cost to changing paths. If Paramount is serious about winning, they're going to need to provide a greater incentive." MarketScreener reports.
