Paramount pushes back WBD acquisition timeline to June 2027

Reported · Written up by our desk · M&A & Deals

CNBC Markets reports that Paramount has agreed to delay its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, with the closing timeline extending as late as June 2027.

The deal had previously been targeted for completion by the end of September, but Paramount said the updated agreement represents a significant win amid an ongoing legal challenge.

The company’s statement also frames the delay as tied to the need to resolve the dispute before the acquisition can move forward.
