For this special podcast episode, we break down the deal numbers behind Netflix's plan to acquire Warner Bros. film and television studios. We focus on the facts rather than on many varying opinions about the deal, most of which are speculation, given the many unknowns. We detail the impact of the proposed agreement on Netflix's balance sheet, highlight the potential regulatory hurdles, and point out what some people are getting wrong about the news. Finally, we call out uncertainties not yet known, including the possible impact on content bundling, pricing, layoffs, and theatrical releases.
