21 Century FOX
Comcast announced on Wednesday, June 13th, an offer of US$65 billion for 21st Century Fox that establishes a struggle with Walt Disney, which had already offered US$52.4 billion for those assets.
The sum offered by Comcast is 19% higher than that proposed by Disney.
Comcast’s cash offer occurs only 24 hours after a federal judge approved the merger of AT&T and Time Warner. The executives of Comcast were waiting for the decision on the case.
Comcast’s bid also includes a 30% stake in Hulu. Just like the Disney deal, Comcast would become a majority owner of the streaming service if its proposed acquisition is approved.
