TKO Hotels announces proposed $2B acquisition of Service Properties hotels

TKO LLC offered to buy Service Properties Trust's (SVC) hotel portfolio for $2B in cash. TKO claims this provides SVC liquidity, reduces debt, and lets it focus on its net lease retail business. SVC shares have fallen over 50% in a year, and the offer exceeds SVC's current market cap.
