Comcast offers $35 a share for 21st Century Fox assets

Comcast Corp. offered 21st Century Fox Inc. $35 a share in cash for assets that it had agreed to sell Walt Disney Co. , Comcast said late Wednesday. The offer is a 19% premium over Disney's offer and values Fox at $65 billion. "In light of yesterday's decision in the AT&T/Time Warner case, the limited time prior to your shareholders' meeting, and our strong continued interest, we are pleased to present a new, all-cash proposal that fully addresses the Board's stated concerns with our prior proposal," Comcast Chief Executive Brian Roberts wrote in a letter to Fox executives. Comcast said it will host a call with investors at 4:45 p.m. Eastern time Wednesday. Comcast stock is down 1% after-hours trading and closed up 0.2% to $32.32 during the regular session. Fox class B shares are up more than 1% in after hours trading after closing up 7.5% to $43.41 during the regular session. Comcast stock is down 19% this year, as the S&P 500 index has gained 4.2%.

Fox the 'clear winner' in AT&T-Time Warner ruling, analysts say

Analysts are declaring 21st Century Fox a "clear winner" following Tuesday's court decision to allow AT&T to acquire Time Warner . The ruling paves the way for a potential bidding war between Walt Disney Co. and Comcast Corp. as the Marvel owner and cable giant look to buy up some of Fox's most highly prized entertainment assets, including the Twentieth Century Fox TV and film studios, cable networks like FX and National Geographic Channel, a 39% stake in Sky PLC and a controlling stake in Hulu. Although Comcast is reportedly planning a $60 billion all-cash offer to compete against Disney's existing all-stock $52.4 billion bid, analysts at Jefferies think bids could reach as high as $80 billion, or $42.50 a share, and still maintain investment-grade credit ratings. Fox shares shot up 7.4% to a record high during trading on Wednesday. AT&T shares fell 4.5% and Time Warner shares increased by 3.15%.

AT&T stock falls after Jefferies downgrades to hold

Shares of AT&T Inc. are down 0.4% in premarket trading Thursday after Jefferies analyst John Janedis lowered the firm's rating on the stock to hold from buy. "We think pressures in the entertainment segment will continue, as VMVPDs [virtual multichannel video programming distributors] gain share and video options pressure ARPU [average revenue per user] and margins," he wrote. "While we expect the Time Warner Inc. deal to close, we believe there is risk of incremental programming investment at HBO/Turner to drive growth, and the advanced advertising opportunity may take longer to materialize." The Time Warner ruling is expected to come on June 12. Janedis assumed coverage of AT&T, as well as Comcast Corp. , Charter Communications Inc. , and Verizon Communications Inc. . Of those, he has hold ratings on all but Comcast's stock. Shares of AT&T are down 14% over the past 12 months, while the S&P 500 has gained 14%.
