合并消息于2021年5月16日首次传出，当时彭博新聞社报道称， AT&T正在就合并其旗下的華納媒體和探索公司谈判。^[5]^[6]

2021年5月17日，AT&T宣布同意出售其在华纳媒体的股权，并将其与探索公司合并以组建一家新公司，该公司需获得监管部门的批准，预计在2022年年中完成。AT&T股东持有新公司股票71%的股权并任命七名董事会成员，探索公司股东持有新公司29%的股权并任命六名董事会成员。此外，AT&T将从分拆中获得430亿美元的现金和债务。^[7]^[8]^[9]

新公司将由探索公司的时任CEO大卫·扎斯拉夫（David Zaslav）领导^[7]。2021年6月1日，新的公司名“华纳兄弟探索”公布^[10]^[11]。

2021年12月22日，该交易获得欧洲联盟委员会批准^[12]^[13]，2022年2月9日获得美国司法部的批准^[14]，2022年3月11日，合并获得探索公司股东的批准。由于合并后的结构以AT&T为主导，它不需要AT&T股东的单独批准^[15]^[16]。

合并于2022年4月8日正式完成，4月11日新公司开始在纳斯达克交易。^[1]
