Inevitable (BusinessWeek Online) 09/17/2004 04:01 PM
BusinessWeek Online - For more than a year, PeopleSoft Inc. CEO Craig Conway has battled to prevent Oracle Corp.'s Larry Ellison from grabbing his company in a hostile takeover. Now, Conway's spirited quest has absorbed a potentially fatal blow: On Sept. 9, U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn R. Walker ruled that the Justice Dept. had no grounds to block the acquisition. While the European Community could still stop it, the legal case for halting this shotgun wedding is looking weaker by the day.

Oracle lowers PeopleSoft bid to $7.7 billion: After raising the bid twice, (the last time just two months ago — and that just four months after saying they weren't going any higher), they're now lowering it. I can't even speculate on the implications of this.

Business software maker Oracle reduced its hostile takeover bid for rival PeopleSoft to $7.7 billion Friday, shaving nearly 20%, or $1.7 billion, from its previous offer to reflect its prey's wilting market value.

Monday morning's newsthat Oracle will buy PeopleSoft for a small premium over Oracle's most recent offer was almost the ultimate in anticlimaxes. It was a given, once the U.S. antitrust lawsuit against the deal failed in early fall, that a buyout would happen unless an unexpected white knight showed up to buy PeopleSoft. This deal should have been done a long time ago. More...
