Wall Street banks boost Warner Bros loan to over $10 billion ahead of Paramount merger

Wall Street banks led by JPMorgan have raised the size of a loan package for Warner Bros. Discovery to more than $10 billion as the company works to refinance debt ahead of its planned merger with Paramount Skydance. The larger financing underscores active lender support and the scale of WBD's refinancing needs, though the headline itself is largely financing-related rather than an operating update. The news is most relevant to WBD's credit profile, merger execution, and media-sector deal activity.
