US EditionNetflix taps bank to explore bid for Warner Bros Discovery
- Netflix has retained Moelis & Co to evaluate a bid for Warner Bros Discovery's studio and streaming assets, gaining access to its data room, according to sources.
- Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos said last week the company is "more builders than buyers" and evaluates deals by size and fit, adding 'We've been very clear in the past that we have no interest in owning legacy media networks'.
- Warner Bros Discovery announced last week it received unsolicited offers from Paramount and Skydance, and its board will consider splitting the studios and HBO Max from its television business.
- Warner Bros Discovery spokespeople and Moelis declined to comment, Netflix could not be reached for comment, and Comcast President Mike Cavanagh said on Thursday the company is evaluating complementary media assets.
- Advisory pedigree and content overlap shape the deal's strategic appeal as Moelis & Co advised Skydance Media on a successful Paramount Global bid, and Warner Bros' studio produces Netflix hits like "Running Point".
