Univision sells majority stake to private investors

Univision announced it has agreed to sell a 64% stake to two investment firms, Searchlight Capital Partners and ForgeLight LLC. Grupo Televisa, which grants Univision the rights to its content library, will hold the remaining 36% stake. Wade Davis, founder of ForgeLight, will take over as CEO of Univision. In 2007, Saban Capital Group led private equity investors to purchase the company in a leveraged buyout worth $13.7 billion. Today, analysts predict the deal likely values Univision at less than $10 billion – meaning Saban Capital Group will walk away with a far lower payout than envisioned when purchasing the company. Univision’s plunging value over the last decade speaks to the turbulent nature of the media landscape today.

In an interview with Bloomberg, Wade Davis comments on the future of Spanish-language programming.

Supporting African Americans believe Bloomberg’s ad buy acknowledges the importance of African American journalism and supports many black-owned family businesses. However, others are hesitant to jump on board due to decisions Bloomberg made as the former mayor of New York, such as the stop-and-frisk policing that targeted black and Hispanic men and had a lasting negative impact on the quality of life for so many.
