GAMCO's Stake in Paramount: As of July 31, 2025, GAMCO Asset Management Inc. and its affiliates owned approximately 12.0% of Paramount Global's class A voting stock but are being forced to accept cash for these shares due to a pending combination with Skydance Media.
Regulatory Filing: GAMCO filed a 13D with the SEC on July 31, 2025, indicating it made a cash election for all class A shares held, as current holders will not have the opportunity to retain their voting stock in the new arrangement.
