variety.com/2016/biz/news/endemol-shine-paramount-anonymous-content-1201725376/ Endemol Shine, Paramount Among Suitors for Anonymous Content Stake Endemol Shine North America and Paramount Pictures are among the suitors to buy a stake in Anonymous Content, the red-hot management-production entity behind “Spotlight,” “The Revenant,” “Mr. Robot” and other hits. Anonymous hired Guggenheim Partners last fall to help it field offers for a minority interest in the Culver City-based company. The process has moved into the second phase with a handful of contenders now doing due diligence and a deeper dive into the company’s books. Anonymous is said to be seeking a high multiple for an investment, given the strength of its growing TV and film business. A rep for Anonymous Content declined to comment, as did a rep for Endemol Shine. Endemol Shine, the joint venture of 21st Century Fox and Apollo Global Management, is pursuing the deal to help expand its U.S. scripted production operations. Paramount is already in business with Anonymous Content through a first-look deal. More to come
