Sinclair Broadcast Group confirmed on Monday that it has agreed to buy Tribune Media for about $3.9 billion.
Tribune operates 42 TV stations including several CBS, ABC, and Fox affiliates, and the cable network WGN America. Sinclair is one of the largest operators of local TV news stations. By buying Tribune, Sinclair hopes to “create a leading nationwide platform that includes our country’s largest markets,” according to Sinclair CEO Chris Ripley, in a statement.
Sinclair is buying 100% of Tribune’s outstanding shares for $43.50 per share for an aggregate price of about $3.9 billion. That includes about $2.7 billion in net debt.
Reuters had reported on Sunday that the deal was pending. It comes just weeks after the Federal Communications Commission reversed a 2016 decision that limited how many TV stations some broadcasters can buy, Reuters noted. Sinclair said it may sell some stations in markets where it currently operates to comply with FCC antitrust regulations.
The companies expect the deal to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.
JP Morgan was Sinclair’s financial advisor, while Moelis & Company and Guggenheim Securities worked with Tribune.

Apple remains “among the most underappreciated stocks in the world,” Drexel Hamilton analyst Brian White wrote in a note distributed to clients on Monday.
He’s one of the most bullish analysts watching Apple. On Monday, Drexel raised its Apple price target to $202 a share from $185. The stock was trading at just over $149 in pre-market trading on Monday morning.
Apple has 5.213 billion shares outstanding, according to Bloomberg. If Apple were to hit $202 per share, the company’s market capitalization would be valued at $1.053 trillion.
“Apple has proven its resilience through its unique ability to develop hardware, software and services that work seamlessly together,” White wrote. “We believe this positions Apple very well to capitalize on the trend toward more ‘things’ becoming a computer.”
Apple’s stock is on a tear. It’s up 29% so far this year.

Straight Path Communications, an owner of spectrum rights for fifth generation (5G) networks, has been the subject of a heated bidding war between two wireless giants.
AT&T originally targeted Straight Path in April for a takeover bid, offering $1.6 billion.
A round of counter-offers from what Straight Path has called a “multi-national telecommunications company” has pushed the latest price tag to $3.1 billion in a bid announced on Monday.
An unnamed counter-bidder also entered offers against AT&T of $1.8 and $2.3 billion. According to reports, the counter-bidder is in fact Verizon.
AT&T will have three days to offer a revised bid for the firm.
Straight Path’s ownership of 5G networks is key for both AT&T and Verizon in their push to move to faster and faster networks. The firm is the third-largest owner of spectrum licenses that could be used for 5G, according to Bloomberg.
Following the announcement of the newest bid, Straight Path shares soared by 27% in pre-market trading on Monday, a jump of roughly $43 a share to $205.12 at 8:47 a.m. ET. As recently as April 7, Straight Path was trading for around $36 a share, over the last three months shares have gained 515%.
