Paramount has been a source of redemption rumors for ten years, and that might finally come to an end.

Global Paramount (PARA) has been a focal point in media merger discussions for several years, with significant developments expected as a crucial negotiation window closes on Friday. National Amusements, the holding company led by Shari Redstone, is reportedly engaged in exclusive talks with Skydance Media’s David Ellison concerning the sale of her controlling stake in the media organization. Skydance has previously partnered with Paramount on successful franchises such as “Mission Impossible,” “Top Gun: Maverick,” and “Transformers.”

The exclusivity period between Paramount and Skydance ends on Friday, though extensions may be possible. Non-voting shareholders of Paramount have raised concerns about the terms of the Skydance agreement, alleging that it unfairly favors Redstone at the expense of other investors.

Beyond Skydance, other interested parties include Sony Pictures Entertainment and Apollo Global Management, which have shown interest in acquiring the media company for approximately $26 billion. Paramount’s future ultimately rests in the hands of Shari Redstone, the daughter of the late media mogul Sumner Redstone.

Analysts, such as Morningstar’s Matthew Dolgin, predict that Paramount is unlikely to operate independently for much longer in its current configuration. Amid these developments, Paramount recently announced the departure of its CEO Bob Bakish, who reportedly had disagreements with Redstone regarding the Skydance deal. Many observers are surprised by Bakish’s dismissal during a period of crucial negotiations, suggesting that it indicates the company’s intent to either merge with Skydance or entertain better acquisition offers.

Paramount has long been viewed as a potential acquisition target due to its relatively smaller market capitalization of around $10 billion compared to rivals like Disney and Netflix. The company has faced a history of governance issues, stirring speculation about a sale, especially following public disputes involving its leadership.

The latest surge in acquisition interest saw discussions between Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav and Bakish regarding a possible merger. Amid these dynamics, an offer to purchase all outstanding shares of Paramount for a reported $30 billion has been tabled. Paramount has also considered selling parts of its business, including BET and Showtime, but ultimately decided against it, seeking to keep operations integrated under Redstone’s leadership.
