Apple and RealNetworks -- the 'Real'
story (MacCentral)
04/16/2004 06:35 PMMacCentral - Recent technology news has been punctuated by published
reports of an e-mail sent by RealNetworks Inc. Chairman and CEO Rob
Glaser to Apple CEO Steve Jobs. Glaser's memo purportedly urged Jobs
to make Apple open the iPod to work with Real's own RealPlayer Music
Store. While Apple enjoys an early lead in the market, industry
analysts feel that Apple will need partners to extend its reach.

The Story Behind The Story Of The Google
IPO?
The Story Behind The Story Of The Google
IPO?
07/26/2004 12:14 PMThis morning, it seems like the big Wall Street tech story is the
official release from Google about what they think they'll raise from
their IPO. Looking over all the different coverage, it appears that
many (especially in the financial press) seem to be getting the story
a little mixed up. The basic facts seem to be that approximately
24.6 million shares
will be put on the market with a range of $108 to $135 per share.
As noted in the story, some seem to think that breaking $100 may prove
to be a psychological barrier for many retail investors, even if the
actual price per share is meaningless. Still, if the price is a
psychological barrier, rather than a calculated decision, the investor
probably shouldn't be buying anyway. A minimum bid from anyone must
be for five shares, so anyone who wants in is spending over $500. The
range is higher than expected, and could lead to a valuation pushing
$40 billion. One analyst makes the bizarre statement that:
"The question is not what the company is
worth, but instead what people will pay for it," which misses the
fairly simple, but important, point that the price people are willing
to pay for the stock
is what the company is worth. Meanwhile,
many news articles are claiming that
Google will raise
$3.3 billion in the offering, which is not true at all (or at
least, extremely unlikely). The details show that Google is likely to
bring
in about $1.66 billion (and possibly as high as $1.9 billion at
the top of the range). That's because only 14.1 million of the 24.6
million shares are actually being sold by the company. The other 10.5
million are being sold by insiders. Now, that's a curious point that
no one seems to be focusing on. While insiders do sometimes sell
during an IPO, it generally doesn't look too good. While there are
plenty of reasons (liquidity, liquidity, liquidity) that people might
want to sell, usually insiders get locked up for a bit. It does
happen, but in this case, an awful lot of that $3.3 billion (or
whatever the amount actually is) isn't going to the company, but to
others. The initial IPO filing tried to spin all this insider selling
as a good thing, but that's pretty questionable. If people really
believe in the stock, why are so many selling it at the
very
first chance they get? Doesn't inspire the most confidence in the
world.
