The Financial Times newspaper has an interesting piece here discussing the possible sale of Anheuser-Busch’s theme parks. The story says that “Busch Entertainment, the group’s theme park business, which owns SeaWorld Orlando, is expected to be one of the first business units put up for sale with a possible price of up to $4 billion.” Possible buyers include Walt Disney and Universal Studios, according to the newspaper.

Anheuser-Busch InBev needs to sell “non-core” assets to pay back some of the debt it took on to form the combined company last year.
