The Las Vegas Raiders have officially approved the sale of a 25 percent stake in the team, significantly altering the ownership landscape. This deal enhances the stakes of existing owners, billionaire Egon Durban and businessman Michael Meldman, while introducing several prominent new minority owners. Among them are Michael Dell, founder of Dell Technologies, who has acquired a 5.3 percent stake, and Joseph Baratta, founder of Blackstone, who holds 1.7 percent. Other new owners include Ari Emanuel, CEO of TKO, with a 1.4 percent stake, and Mark Shapiro, TKO's president, who holds 0.6 percent. Following this transaction, Durban's ownership interest in the Raiders has increased to 22 percent, after he added 11 percent to his previous stake. Meldman’s stake also grew to 12.9 percent after he purchased an additional 5.4 percent. The sale was part of a larger strategy, as Raiders majority owner Mark Davis retains a 36 percent stake and has a succession plan allowing Durban the right of first refusal to buy the controlling stake if Davis decides to sell in the future.
