Watch this webinar with Andrew Walker, Founder of Yet Another Value Podcast, is joined by Michelle Brophy, Director of TMT Research at AlphaSense, as they examine one of the most transformative moves in streaming: Paramount’s proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. What does Netflix see in its core business and competitive landscape that makes this deal not just attractive, but necessary? And how might the competitive landscape respond?

Together, they explored:

• How Paramount might leverage WBD’s “world class IP” to draw new subscribers and engagement
• What Warner Bros. Discovery uniquely brings to Paramount’s strategy — from content depth to IP leverage
• Why Netflix felt compelled to chase WBD and what is next for them after losing a hostile tender offer
• What the merged PSKY/WBD looks like and how the consolidation could reshape the streaming ecosystem
• The key strategic and regulatory risks and execution challenges investors may be underestimating

This is a candid, analytical conversation for investors trying to understand this deal, the future of media, and the evolving economics of global streaming.
