On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD)is planning to reject Paramount Skydance Corp.’s hostile takeover bid due to concerns about financing and other terms, people familiar with the matter said. After deliberating and reviewing Paramount’s bid, Warner Bros.’ board will urge shareholders to reject the tender offer, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information. The board still views the company’s existing agreement with streaming leader Netflix Inc. as offering greater value, certainty and terms than what Paramount has proposed, they said. One major sticking point is Warner Bros.’ concern about the financing proposed by Paramount, which is led by David Ellison. News also broke that Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners is exiting from the takeover battle for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. Shares of all three companies involved bounced around in aftermarket trading.

- Affirm (AFRM) shares gained as much as 12% after the lending company’s chief financial officer said at an industry event that quarter to date trends were healthy, according to Evercore ISI.

- Estee Lauder (EL) gets a new street-high price target at Bank of America as the broker names the company its top pick in beauty for 2026. The bank raises its target to $130 from $120 and reiterates its buy recommendation, citing improving beauty demand in China and US, and margin rebuild. Shares of beauty brand rose during trading on Tuesday.
