Larry Ellison provides personal guarantee for Paramount takeover of Warner Bros

Remember the lawnmower and the acronym.
toomanyrichies•1mo ago
For those who don't get the references:

"Lawnmower" refers to this. [1] And I'm guessing "acronym" refers to the joke that "Oracle" is an acronym for "One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison".

Some context from Matt Levine [0] as to what was different prior to this change.

(TL;DR, but please correct me if I'm wrong: it was previously backstopped by Ellison's revocable trust. Ellison could theoretically clear out the revocable trust at any time, and leave WBD high and dry. Now that it is backstopped by Ellison himself, there is no such worry.)

> In an effort to address these concerns, Paramount said on Monday morning that Larry Ellison, the co-founder of tech giant Oracle, had agreed to personally backstop $40.4bn in equity financing for the proposed deal.

The deal is for $108.4bn though.

IIUC, Ellison's trust is on the hook for 40.7bn so where's the missing 0.3bn? Levine didn't really talk much about how the remainder is secured so there could be issues there as well.

Netflix diabolically threw in a $5.8 billion reverse termination fee for their offer, which I believe is rich enough that even if their deal doesn't go through, Warner Bros has enough money to give Ellison the bird and still keep their investors happy.
bgwalter•1mo ago
He already uses $82 billion in stock as collateral for his borrowing:

This is another $40 billion guarantee. Imagine he gets a margin call if ORCL drops another 30%.

bigbuppo•1mo ago
Good thing that AI is definitely not a bubble, and if it was, that Oracle was smart enough to not be involved in any of that mess.
robocat•1mo ago
The negative publicity obviously motivated him. Who does he care about impressing these days?
Canada•1mo ago
He's buying as much media as possible to propagandize Americans on behalf of Israel. It's why he has TikTok and why he's installed Bari Weiss at CBS.
lotsoweiners•1mo ago
Just curious. How does that benefit someone like Ellison?
djohnston•1mo ago
He's a staunch Zionist
bfkwlfkjf•1mo ago
It benefits him because that's the thing he wants.

I find it hilarious that hn is so money focused that a lot of people here will straight up deny that people some times do things for reasons other than money. But it's true, money is just an end.

bfkwlfkjf•1mo ago
Lol edit I meant "money is just a means, not the end".
bfkwlfkjf•1mo ago
I find it encouraging that people are starting more and more to openly criticise Israel without fear of being called aNtIsEmItIc. They've used it so much it lost its effectiveness.
Canada•1mo ago
Yes, we need to openly discuss this. It's beyond ridiculous, and they are openly talking about their plans to censor us, which is exactly what Larry is doing. Fuck him.

And look at what they're talking about in Australia right now. This just isn't right, it makes me sick.

We, the majority, are being taken advantage of in the most disgusting and cynical way by this small group of terrible people and our traitor leaders who they bribe and blackmail, and I'm sick and tired of it, and it's long past time we stand up for our own interests.

djohnston•1mo ago
All the media ownership in the world won't put the genie back in the bottle larry - zionism is dying and Americans are sick of footing the bill to their own detriment.
