Warner Bros. Discovery Inc.
WBD,
said it expected to incur as much as $4.3 billion in pretax restructuring charges through 2024, the result of a cost-cutting effort following the combination earlier this year of Discovery Inc. and AT&T Inc.’s
T,
WarnerMedia unit.
The majority of the charges — between $2 billion and $2.5 billion — are tied to restructuring the company’s content operations, including writing down the value of some content and killing off projects that were in development, Warner Bros. Discovery said in a securities filing Monday. The company is expected to report third-quarter earnings Nov. 3.
