1005 ET - Paramount says that while it will find significant savings following its merger with Warner, those savings won't include cutting production capacity. The combined company will release at least 30 films annually and the majority of cost-savings will be from non-labor sources. Chief Executive David Ellison says that the company will keep investing in content production to gain subscribers for its streaming services. "We have all of the economic incentives to make sure that we grow this business and are going to invest in content to basically achieve those goals," he says. (nicholas.miller@wsj.com)
