?? F1000 Media: Warner Bros. Entertainment Makes an $8.5 Billion Move into Las Vegas! By Alex Long ?? Warner Bros. Discovery has announced plans to invest a massive $8.5 billion in a new studio complex in Las Vegas, aiming to boost its production capabilities while cementing Nevada as a hub for film and television production. This 17-year project, contingent on the approval of enhanced state film tax credits, involves a strategic partnership with the University of Nevada-Las Vegas (UNLV) and Birtcher Development LLC to develop the studio at the Harry Reid Research & Technology Park. ?? The proposed Warner Bros. Studios Nevada will offer state-of-the-art facilities, including sound stages, production spaces, and a Media and Technology Lab to foster talent development. With the potential to generate $1.2 billion annually for Nevada’s economy and support 16,500 jobs, this expansion emphasizes Warner Bros.’ commitment to building long-term infrastructure that benefits both the media industry and local communities. ?? While the deal offers significant opportunities, the outcome hinges on the approval of new tax incentives. Current state tax credits, capped at $10 million annually, may increase to $95 million per year to attract major film productions. This potential legislative change will be essential to overcoming rising production costs and enhancing Nevada’s competitive edge over other locations. ?? The timing of this investment reflects Warner Bros.’ strategy to diversify as the entertainment landscape shifts due to declining traditional media revenues. The studio’s plans also align with industry trends of decentralizing production hubs, bringing Hollywood-style infrastructure to new locations. The move will allow Warner Bros. to streamline operations and reduce production costs while expanding its media footprint beyond California. ?? If approved, the project could begin by the end of 2025, with Warner Bros. using temporary warehouse space for initial productions while construction proceeds. This investment reflects a clear message: Warner Bros. is betting big on Las Vegas as a new frontier for global entertainment. #WarnerBros #FilmProduction #LasVegas #EntertainmentIndustry #EconomicExpansion #F1000Media #MediaInnovation

???????????? ???????? ?????????????????? ?????????????? ???? ?????????? Its streaming and studio businesses from its linear networks Warner Bros Discovery?wants to break off its streaming and studio businesses from its linear networks. WBD CEO?David Zaslav?is weighing myriad options, from selling assets to separating the movie studio and Max streaming service into a new company, free from the group’s current near-$40 billion debt. The notion of a WBD split could see debt stay with linear networks, while the growing OTT service could hit a higher valuation multiple and be given the potential to invest in its growth. WBD is among the major motion picture studios who’ve committed to launching expensive streaming services, with all the attendant technology headaches, content costs,?talent issues?and?brand repositioning?that entails. Compounding problems are a declining ad market as well as the aftermath of Covid and last year’s double Hollywood strikes. Warners has had a sour summer at the box office with a string of flops including?Furiosa, Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter One?and?The Watchers.?That said, they had a rich spring with Legendary’s?Dune: Part Two?and?Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

Discount and (negative) growth rates are discussed in the analysis referenced below. Next week we will show you another case with similar results.

Warner Bros. Discovery experienced a sharp decline in its share price, dropping more than 10 percent in after-hours trading on Wednesday. This occurred after the company reported a significant quarterly loss of nearly $10 billion. The majority of this loss, $9.1 billion, was due to a write-down in the value of its cable network, highlighting the ongoing challenges in the traditional television industry. The write-down was attributed to the difference between the company's market capitalization and its book value, according to a company statement. Warner Bros. Discovery's total revenue for the three months ending June 30th was $9.7 billion, a decrease from almost $10.4 billion during the same period the previous year. The net losses for the quarter were significantly higher than those in the second quarter of 2023. #bizzspark #bizznews #warnerbros #warnerbrosdiscovery #sharemarket

This is a slide defining New York's Media & Entertainment sector in 2012. At that time, M&E in New York employed ~275k people and generated more than $80bn in revenues. One big media sector is missing and not even mentioned as a bullet point - games! At that time, it was not even, as they say, an "out-of-scope sub-sector". Now a +$200BN market. This is mainly a reminder to myself that even if the opportunity might look small(ish) in the here and now, the world is changing (hello electrical cars) cc Doug Shapiro #gamedev #gameindustry #entertainment #media

A lack of economic diversity has long been a thorn in our side with out of state lenders, but things are changing and other industries are starting to take notice. Sony Pictures and Warner Bros. are both vying to establish major studio operations in Las Vegas, positioning the city as a potential hub for film production. Sony's plan involves a $1.8 billion mixed-use project, "Summerlin Production Studios," designed to include a 500,000-square-foot facility with accompanying commercial spaces. Warner Bros., in collaboration with UNLV, has proposed a competing venture at the Harry Reid Research & Technology Park, with long-term production spending commitments of up to $8.5 billion. With the landscape evolving, how are you positioning yourself to take advantage of these changes? #cre #crelending #commcap #lasvegas #nevada https://lnkd.in/gWcuyRdz
