Twenty-First Century Fox (NASDAQ:FOXA)
Twenty-First Century Fox has been in the news recently due to the bidding war between Disney and Comcast. The merger that was eventually approved by shareholders, between Disney and Twenty-First Century Fox, will give Twenty-First Century Fox shareholders $38 a share or stock consideration. The collar on the stock consideration gives Twenty-First Century Fox shareholders an exchange ratio of 0.3324 if Disney stock is above $114.32. At the current price of $115.62 a share, the value on the consideration is about $38.50 a share. In addition to the deal with Disney, Twenty-First Century Fox will spin-off their news, sports, and broadcast businesses to create a new "Fox". The new "Fox" will include Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, Fox Broadcasting Company, Fox Sports, Fox Television Stations Group, and sports cable networks. The deal has already been approved by the DOJ4 but still awaits approval in foreign markets.
