How do you think Mobileye investors would feel about an acquisition of AI21 by another player?
We're grateful for the time here at CES Las Vegas.
Now, coming up, we have a whole lot more.
We speak with the Quick Play CEO, Paul Pasta, as Warner Bros.
says Paramount's amended offer remains, quote, inadequate.
Warner Bros has rejected Paramount Skydance's latest amended offer, calling the company's revised bid, quote, inadequate and urging shareholders to stay the course with Netflix.
Here to discuss the state of media and streaming is Paul Pasta, Quick Play chief business officer.
Paul also previously held senior executive positions at Discovery Communications and the Walt Disney Company.
There's a lot in the sort of structure of the deal that the Warner Brothers Discovery Board points out.
A lot of it has to do with the debt load of the Paramount deal.
There's something interesting in it that I wanted to pick out, which is we don't agree how valuable cable networks are.
So the street and the investors would say, actually, they're much more valuable than you're giving them credit for.
Paramount Skydance would say, in our $30 a share offer, we don't think they're valuable.
Therefore, the $30 a share offer is a great premium because we want the whole thing.
