February 16, 2008

Microsoft (Microsoft Corp. ) be aimed at Yahoo (Yahoo Inc. ) its buy decline offer to make a response, say it did not change a view accordingly, it still thinks its bade is ” sufficient and just ” .

Microsoft this makes known this position to mean those who be aimed at Yahoo to buy battle to appear inevitable. Yahoo ever said in press release before this, microsoft put forward on January 31 buy a condition ” underestimated apparently ” its value. Microsoft opens the condition that give before this is add stock means to buy Yahoo with cash. With Microsoft Zhou Yi captures the market in Na Sida the computation of closing quotation price of 28.21 dollars, the total offer a price of Microsoft is equivalent to 41.6 billion dollar, add up to every 28.91 dollars.

Bade hind is bought in what make known his position to reject Microsoft, yahoo stock rises 2.3% to 29.87 dollars, if be bought,investor believes Yahoo it seems that, buy valence to answer the price with prep above current Microsoft. Still put forward to buy Yahoo without other company at present, but disclose according to personage of know the inside story, yahoo board of directors already discussed to help a company maintain likely ” free body ” plan, for instance with Gu Ge (Google) reachs agreement of the bag outside searching advertisement to wait.

A lot of analysis personages think, although do not have other company to participate in contest to buy Yahoo at present, but to win the fragrant heart of Yahoo company staff and administrative layer, microsoft should be met raise offer a price. Say according to personage of know the inside story, yahoo can ask at least not the bade under every 40 dollars.

And Microsoft respect may await an opportunity, in order to inspect Yahoo whether draw contest to buy square. It still can ask Yahoo proves him probably ” tall ” value, open an entrance door to buy a negotiation thereby. Say according to personage of know the inside story, at present level Microsoft raises offer a price innocently.

Yahoo says in press release, to its ” global brand, worldwide user group, cash of freedom of the growth foreground of a large number of near future investment on advertisement platform and future, creation flows and the latent capacity of gain and many and inattentive investment ” , the bade of Microsoft did not realize their value adequately. Yahoo CEO Yang Zhiyuan (those who develop its to locate to oneself ─ ─ becomes consumer to enter network world namely reiterate Yahoo is dedicated in the mail that Jerry Yang) is signing up for superintendency branch to put on record to employee ” start ” , the established guiding principle of the has surely ─ choosing ─ that becomes advertiser.

Microsoft says in the response in press release, “Very regretful Yahoo fails to accept us to incorporate the sufficient and just program that two companies offer ” , although Yahoo rejected this one plan, but it follows same before, the plan that still believes oneself ” go up in the strategy no matter or is desirable place very much on finance affairs ” . Microsoft expresses, the issue that buys Yahoo is discussing with investor all the time before it. Press release says: According to the result that chats with the partner of two companies, we believe, advance this matter until quickly to manage the profit that makes Yi Fu add up to each.

Microsoft reiterates it ” the right that reservation takes all and necessary step to ensure Yahoo partner gets realizing opportunity of company intrinsic value ” . Such expression can be unscrambled to be normally, buy potentially just may adopt the ill will that buys to partner bade directly to buy way.

A few buy the market to observe the personage is right the language that Yahoo chooses in press release feels indissoluble. The offer that the statement of Yahoo did not say Microsoft ” insufficient ” , and this is the end that ill will buys just seek the version of mild and indirect that buy square drive up to bid and introduces via regular meeting for extruding. The offer a price that statement mentions Microsoft really ” underestimate apparently ” Yahoo. Buy clerical lawyer to say, this makes clear, yahoo board of directors undertook assessment to company value, and this one pace is target company normally the step that just can take in negotiation later period.

Use ” underestimate apparently ” after such stating, if final Yahoo accepts the offer with current Microsoft, yahoo directorate member will be in embarrassed condition. In those days, bellicose model the ill will that partner may oppugn a board of directors to have remainder company.

Current, two companies support his position in agitate Yahoo partner.
