The deregistration is a routine post-merger step with no trading implications for common stock, which is already delisted and held by a single holder. Monitor for any future Skydance-related filings if the debt securities trade over-the-counter.

Executive Summary
Warner Bros. Discovery filed a Form 15-15D to suspend SEC reporting obligations for its Series A Common Stock and various debt securities, following its acquisition by Skydance Corporation on October 6, 2026. The Series A Common Stock now has only one holder of record, and each debt security class has fewer than 300 holders, making the deregistration a routine post-merger administrative step. The prior Nasdaq delisting (Form 25-NSE) confirms the company's complete exit from public markets.
Key Facts
- Warner Bros. Discovery was acquired by Skydance Corporation via merger on October 6, 2026, and now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary.
- Series A Common Stock has only one holder of record as of the filing date.
- All covered debt securities have fewer than 300 holders of record, triggering suspension of Section 15(d) reporting.

- The deregistration is a standard post-merger action, not a going-private or bankruptcy event.
