Private equity firm Lantern Capital is the winning bidder for substantially all the assets of the Weinstein Company, the TV and film studio that filed for bankruptcy after co-founder Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexual assault, the Weinstein Company said on Tuesday.
“Lantern’s bid clearly achieves the highest and best value for the estate and its creditors,” Ivona Smith, a member of The Weinstein Company board of representatives, said in a statement.
