Bonds of Viacom and Paramount rallied by over 2-4 points across the curve yesterday. This comes after Paramount Global and movie studio Skydance Media reached a merger deal. In June, negotiations had broken after National Amusements left the table. Skydance’s deal to acquire theater operator National Amusements, which has a 77% controlling interest in Paramount Global could be finalized by Monday, they sources added. Skydance has offered to pay $1.75bn for National Amusements, and this will be reviewed by a special committee of Paramount’s board. Other reports indicate a total deal price potentially touching $2.2bn.
