the possible purchase of Warner Bros Discovery, according to a regulatory filing on Monday. The corporation got a $5 billion revolving credit line and two $10 billion delayed draw term loans. This cut its bridge exposure down to roughly $34 billion.Bridge loans provide you money for big deals for a brief time before you have to pay it back with longer-term debt. Netflix may cut its finance expenses and become more flexible as it gets closer to completing the Warner Bros Discovery transaction thanks to the refinancing.It is said that Netflix beat out many other companies, including Paramount Skydance, which made an unsolicited all-cash offer of $108.4 billion, or $30 per share.The refinancing shows that Netflix's purchase funding is still on schedule and that lenders trust the firm to finish the transaction. As the purchase process moves into 2026, investors will probably next look to how Netflix handles the remaining $34 billion in debt.
