Discovery shareholders are set to vote on the company's pending, $110 billion merger with Paramount Skydance during a special meeting on April 23 at 10 a.m. ET. The media giant has also started mailing the definitive proxy statement to shareholders in connection with the special meeting. Shareholders of record as of March 20 at 5 p.m. ET will be entitled to vote. Under the terms of the deal, WBD shareholders will receive $31 per share in cash for each share of WBD common stock they own, which represents a 147% premium to the company's unaffected stock price of $12.54 per share. The transaction is funded by $47 billion in equity, which backstopped by the Ellison family and RedBird Capital Partners, though it may include other strategic and financial partners at closing. It also includes $54 billion of debt commitments from Bank of America,
