<br>Dec 12 (Reuters) [- Warner](https://pittsburghpenguinsclub.com/read-blog/11611_how-much-are-americans-spending-on-sports-betting.html) Bros Discovery on Thursday [decided](https://cheere.org/read-blog/36246_how-are-betting-odds-calculated.html) to separate its decreasing cable [companies](https://www.vancouverrowingclub.wiki/index.php/User:FlorianLampe7) such as CNN from streaming and studio operations such as Max, laying the [groundwork](http://wiki-tb-service.com/index.php?title=Benutzer:DirkT6397127) for a possible sale or spinoff of its TV organization as more cable television subscribers cut the cord.<br> |
|||
<br>Shares of [Warner leapt](https://galgbtqhistoryproject.org/wiki/index.php/User:MeaganMorford14) after the company stated the [brand-new structure](https://rca.co.id/read-blog/319_sweepstakes-casino-controversy-and-celebrities-039-all-important-role.html) would be more deal friendly and it expected to finish the split by the middle of 2025. Warner shares closed at $12.49, up more than 15%.<br> |
|||
<br>Media business are thinking about [choices](https://wooshbit.com/read-blog/18735_compare-amp-review-oddsjet-de.html) for fading cable TV businesses, a longtime golden goose where incomes are eroding as millions of customers welcome streaming video.<br> |
|||
<br>Comcast last month unveiled plans to divide most of its NBCUniversal [cable networks](http://woorichat.com/read-blog/10307_things-you-need-to-understand-about-rafting-adventures.html) into a brand-new public company. The new company would be well capitalized and placed to obtain other cable television networks if the industry combines, one source informed Reuters.<br> |
|||
<br>Bank of America research study analyst [Jessica Reif](https://taar.me/read-blog/8442_best-u-s-sports-betting-sites-amp-sportsbooks-for-2024.html) Ehrlich composed that Warner Bros Discovery's cable tv properties are a "extremely sensible partner" for [Comcast's brand-new](https://www.hb9lc.org/wiki/index.php/User:LudieDanis2836) spin-off company.<br> |
|||
<br>"We highly think there is potential for fairly substantial synergies if WBD's linear networks were integrated with Comcast SpinCo," wrote Ehrlich, using the [industry term](https://uptoscreen.com/read-blog/74256_how-much-are-americans-investing-in-sports-betting.html) for standard tv.<br> |
|||
<br>"Further, we think WBD's standalone streaming and studio assets would be an attractive takeover target."<br> |
|||
<br>Under the new structure for Warner Bros Discovery, the cable organization consisting of TNT, Animal Planet and CNN will be housed in a system called Global Linear Networks.<br> |
|||
<br>Streaming platforms Max and Discovery+ will be under a different division together with film studios, consisting of Warner Bros [Pictures](https://twixxor.com/read-blog/8907_sport-betting-industry-wants-to-protect-itself.html) and New Line Cinema.<br> |
|||
<br>The restructuring shows an inflection point for the media industry, as [investments](https://origintraffic.com/read-blog/1677_the-history-of-the-nfl-and-how-to-bet-on-it.html) in streaming services such as Warner [Bros Discovery's](https://superappsocial.com/read-blog/1393_sport-betting-industry-looks-to-protect-itself.html) Max are lastly paying off.<br> |
|||
<br>"Streaming won as a behavior," stated Jonathan Miller, president of digital media investment firm Integrated Media. "Now, it's winning as a business."<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig) |
|||
<br>Brightcove CEO Marc DeBevoise said [Warner Bros](https://genzkenya.co.ke/read-blog/89_online-betting-firms-gamble-on-soccer-mad-nigeria.html) Discovery's brand-new corporate structure will differentiate growing studio and streaming properties from lucrative but diminishing cable television service, providing a clearer investment picture and most likely [setting](https://energypowerworld.co.uk/read-blog/144831_uk-betting-firms-gamble-on-us-after-sports-wager-ruling.html) the phase for a sale or spin-off of the cable unit.<br> |
|||
<br>The media veteran and advisor predicted Paramount and others might take a similar path.<br> |
|||
<br>CEO David Zaslav, a veteran deal-maker who led Discovery through its acquisition of Scripps Networks Interactive before getting the even larger target, AT&T's WarnerMedia, is placing the business for its next chess relocation, wrote MoffettNathanson expert Robert Fishman.<br>[bit.ly](https://bit.ly/Bet9jaPromotionCodeYOHAIG) |
|||
<br>"The question is not whether more pieces will be moved or knocked off the board, or if additional combination will happen-- it is a matter of who is the buyer and who is the seller," composed Fishman.<br> |
|||
<br>Zaslav [signified](https://app.galaxiesunion.com/read-blog/13130_the-ins-and-outs-of-betting-on-the-nfl-draft.html) that circumstance during Warner Bros [Discovery's](https://namesdev.com/read-blog/15224_the-history-of-the-nfl-and-how-to-bank-on-it.html) financier call last month. He said he anticipated President-elect Donald Trump's administration would be friendlier to deal-making, opening the door to [media industry](https://www.hb9lc.org/wiki/index.php/User:CrystalHuddart6) debt consolidation.<br> |
|||
<br>Zaslav had actually engaged in merger talks with Paramount late in 2015, though a deal never ever materialized, according to a regulative filing last month.<br> |
|||
<br>Others injected a note of care, keeping in [mind Warner](https://zapzclubhouse.com/read-blog/2745_best-u-s-sports-betting-sites-amp-sportsbooks-for-2024.html) Bros Discovery carries $40.4 billion in debt.<br> |
|||
<br>"The structure modification would make it easier for WBD to sell its direct TV networks," [eMarketer analyst](http://www.larsaluarna.se/index.php/User:MalloryPeak4233) Ross Benes said, referring to the cable TV service. "However, discovering a purchaser will be tough. The networks owe money and have no indications of growth."<br> |
|||
<br>In August, Warner Bros Discovery documented the worth of its TV possessions by over $9 billion due to uncertainty around charges from cable and satellite distributors and [sports betting](http://social.redemaxxi.com.br/read-blog/1459_the-ins-and-outs-of-betting-on-the-nfl-draft.html) rights .<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig) |
|||
<br>This week, the media company announced a multi-year offer increasing the general charges Comcast will pay to distribute Warner Bros Discovery's networks.<br> |
|||
<br>[Warner Bros](https://bdstarter.com/tennessee-sports-betting-top-4-legal-betting-sites-in-2024/) Discovery is wagering the Comcast agreement, together with a deal reached this year with cable television and broadband company Charter, will be a [design template](https://woodsrunners.com/index.php/User:FranciscaJauncey) for future negotiations with distributors. That could help support pricing for the domestic pay TV market.
