Paramount Skydance secured overwhelming trader consensus at 99.1% to close the Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition after winning shareholder approval in April 2026, obtaining DOJ antitrust clearance in June, and reaching an out-of-court settlement in September with state attorneys general and the Writers Guild that resolved antitrust litigation. The agreement followed a bidding contest where Netflix withdrew, and it includes consent decree commitments on film output, news editorial independence, and distribution practices. With the June 30, 2027 resolution window still open, the implied probability reflects completed milestones and the absence of active blockers. Remaining risks include any unforeseen final regulatory conditions or financing delays that could push timing beyond the deadline.
