AOL advertising buyout
06/29/2004 03:20 PMAOL has purchased Advertising.com in an all cash deal to help them to
increase their online advertising revenue. Early figures indicate that
industry wide website advertising revenue could rise to 6.78 billion
by the end of the year. It appears that AOL is becoming less focused
on just advertising on their own websites and will be moving on to
making their mark on the rest of the internet. It will also be
interesting to see how this affects the volume of advertising that
already exists on their own portals and websites.

IAC announces Ask Jeeves buyout
03/22/2005 03:32 PMInterActiveCorp on Monday announced it has agreed to buy the fourth
largest search engine in the United States, Ask Jeeves, for $1.85
billion.
According to the deal, InterActiveCorp will issue 1.2668 shares of its
common stock for each share of Ask Jeeves stock in a tax-free
transaction. InterActiveCorp intends to buy back at least 60 percent
of the shares it plans to issue for acquisition through previously
authorized share repurchase programs to offset a substantial portion
of the dilution from the transaction with cash.
“Joining IAC will enable us to play on a much larger field," Ask
Jeeves CEO Steve Berkowitz said. "We are excited about the
opportunity to serve as the connection between IAC’s constellation of
leading online properties to share users and content. Ask Jeeves will
now be in an even stronger position to aggressively grow market
share.”

03/29/2005 08:00 PMMCI announced Tuesday that its board had
decided to accept an updated offer from Verizon rather than
Qwest, which should end a month and a half standoff between
the three companies as well as shareholders. The new offer is for $7.6
billion in cash and stock - about $1 billion above Verizon's previous
offer. The accepted offer is still lower than the 8.45 billion
offered by Qwest. Why not go with the highest bidder? MCI has
expressed concerns over Qwest's financial strength, including the fact
that it would need to finance the takeover. One finds it hard to see
how any of these mergers will benefit the consumer.
