据报道，埃德加·布朗夫曼已筹集55亿美元竞购派拉蒙

Edgar Bronfman has raised $5.5B to bid for Paramount Global's (NASDAQ:PARA) parent, National Amusements Inc. (NAI), Axios reported on Tuesday, citing a source.

Earlier, Bronfman had submitted a $4.3B bid on Monday night, two days before the "go-shop" period deadline, for Paramount to review his offer. He believes his bid could win out because it doesn't include a $4.5B valuation for Skydance Media, which dilutes Paramount shareholders, the source told Axios.

The report said that Bronfman raised the money from several high-net-worth individuals and family offices shortly after reports of his initial bid. He expects the 45-day "go shop" window to be extended as he increases his bid value.

Bronfman's initial bid was $2.4B for NAI—made up of $1.75B in equity and $650M in debt—and $1.5B to add to Paramount Global's balance sheet to pay down debt.
