Paramount Skydance stock rose 0.5% in premarket trading on Wednesday, after reports said it has offered commitments that might help it win the approval from European regulators for its $110-billion Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition.<\/p>\n
The European Commission announced on Wednesday that it had received Paramount\u2019s proposal, but provided no details of the offer. The EU authority said it set a new deadline of July 22 to decide whether to clear the deal or open an in-depth probe.<\/p>\n
Still, Paramount’s offer is expected to secure approval from EU regulators, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.<\/p>\n

Paramount and Warner Bros. finalized their merger on Feb. 27. The deal has been cleared by the United States, China, Australia, Germany, France and Saudi Arabia, according to Reuters.<\/p>\n
UK Could Stall PSKY-WBD Deal<\/p>\n

If she decides to step in, the country\u2019s media regulator and antitrust watchdog will report to her on the deal\u2019s impact on competition, according to reports.<\/p>\n
