🎥 Paramount Global, heavily shorted with 10% of its float in shorts, faces potential squeeze risk post-earnings tomorrow. A positive surprise could trigger a squeeze as the squeeze score has climbed to previous highs. Historically though, PARA’s price often drops after recent upticks and short-interest declines. PARA’s trend of short-driven momentum suggests a post-earnings sell-off could be likely. 🍿 👉 Get our in-depth analysis for a closer look at PARA’s unique positioning and the potential market movements post-earnings.

Paramount Global: Too Much Pessimism? I've recently conducted an in-depth #valuation of #Paramount Global, and it’s clear that the company has faced significant challenges over the past few years. Since early 2021, Paramount's #stock price has plummeted nearly 90% from its all-time high, reaching a trading price of $10 per share. While the #market sentiment is overwhelmingly pessimistic, it might be an overreaction. Given the strategic shifts and potential for recovery, it’s crucial to monitor the company’s progress closely. Keep in mind that this is not a financial advice.🙂 For further in-depth analysis, I suggest the following article: The Future of Streaming (According to the Moguls Figuring It Out) https://lnkd.in/dmwst6KQ

Can metrics collected from call option trading provide a useful indicator of the proportion of bullish versus bearish sentiment in stock markets and even individual stocks? I think so. The Paramount Global call option with a strike price of $12, expiring May 17, 2024 has declined in value by 49.9% as of this time (I confess to having a bet on the table based on this call option ). Extrapolating from the selloff in Paramount Global stock (underlying the algorithm producing the price of this call option ) to a notion about investor and trader sentiment about the news the ownership of Paramount Global is in play, and Skydance Media (CEO is David Ellison, son of Larry Ellison, CTO of Oracle Corporation) might acquire it leads to a very bearish conclusion. This bearish conclusion is further supported by Martin Peers' story "With Paramount, Ellison Should Be Careful What He Wishes For" (https://lnkd.in/eVBEZZVp) published on The Information website today. #optionstrading #paramountglobal #davidellison #manda

A quick thought on Skydance Merger: It could lead to an upscale in content production/ownership, which might be advantageous for PARA. An all-stock merger combined with equity issuance for cash could improve Paramount's leverage ratio. However, this arrangement would dilute the holdings of non-National Amusements, Inc. (NAI) shareholders, and would also lose out on another cash offer at premium. The benefits for these shareholders might not be immediately evident but more so depend on the longer-term success of the new Skydance leadership.
Paramount Bid: While Paramount is in an exclusive 30-day negotiation period with Skydance, Sony has announced its potential joint venture with Apollo to make a bid for Paramount. Previously, Apollo said they would take over Paramount for at least $26B, including debt. After adding the current market cap of Paramount of $7.5B to $15.9B outstanding debt and subtracting its $2.46B cash , we have Paramount EV value at $20.9B. Apollo is bidding Paramount for no less than $26B, so if the deal is successful, Paramount’s market value is $10.1B. With 652 million outstanding shares, the price per share would be $19.3, a potential 68% upside from its current price of $11.5/share (it has increased by 12% to 12.38$ this morning). Do you expect Apollo to submit a higher bid with the joint of Sony? Or Do you want Apollo or Skydance to take over Paramount?

Interesting that some of the scenarios from these analysts are the possibility of another merger with a broadcaster or to dump all linear assets in a separate holding company riddled with debt.
For months, Hollywood has been guessing how Shari Redstone would play her cards to sell control of her once-sprawling Paramount Global empire. The potential breaking apart of a historic studio, the procession of suitors, the thousands of employees on edge and eventual inking of a multibillion-dollar agreement to merge Paramount with the relatively upstart Skydance Media founded by a deep-pocketed heir, David Ellison, has kept executives and producers wondering what’s next (a “go-shop” window ending Aug. 21 is the next deadline).
