Halper Sadeh LLP, a global investor rights law firm, is investigating Discovery, Inc. (NASDAQ: DISCA, DISCB, DISCK) and its board of directors for potential violations of law in connection with its agreement with AT&T Inc. to combine WarnerMedia’s entertainment, sports and news assets with Discovery’s nonfiction and international entertainment and sports businesses to create a standalone company. Under the terms of the agreement, which is structured as an all-stock, Reverse Morris Trust transaction, AT&T would receive $43 billion (subject to adjustment) in a combination of cash, debt securities and WarnerMedia’s retention of certain debt. AT&T’s shareholders would receive stock representing 71% of the new company with Discovery shareholders expected to own 29% of the new company.
