- Thursday, December 22, 2011, 12:52 PM Another stab at Yahoo's worth (previous): Henry Blodget attempts to clear up some of what he calls "misinformation" floating around about Yahoo (YHOO +1.5%), saying that the firm is actually only selling assets worth about $12B - not the widely reported $17B figure - with only a maximum of 2/3 of that total in cash. Pulling out his calculator, he adds this cash figure back along with estimates for other non-core Yahoo assets to derive a total of $15/share. If he's right, the market is only pricing in a slim premium for Yahoo's core assets - primarily due to the risk of the deal backfiring. 1 Comment [Tech, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, December 21, 2011, 4:44 PM How much are Yahoo's (YHOO +5.8%) U.S. operations worth? If today's rumor of a $17B price tag being placed on its Asian assets is accurate, they're worth close to nothing, based on Yahoo's current stock price. Even after today's jump, Yahoo's market cap only stands at $19.8B. Back out the roughly $2.7B in net cash and investments Yahoo holds (per its latest 10-Q), and you're left with a value for its core business that's in the range of $100M. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, December 21, 2011, 3:42 PM Yahoo (YHOO +3.6%) soars as the NYT reports it is considering a deal to sell its holdings of Alibaba and its Japanese affiliate back to their owners - a tricky tax-free deal valued at $17B (Yahoo's total market cap is about $20B). Yahoo's board is expected to meet Thursday to discuss the proposal. (previous) 2 Comments [M&A, Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, December 21, 2011, 8:56 AM All Things Digital's Kara Swisher reports that Yahoo's (YHOO) board is refocusing its collective energy on finding a new CEO, with Hulu's Jason Kilar still on the radar. Though his hiring is still considered a "long shot," Kilar might fall in line with Swisher's faux YHOO CEO help wanted ad: "Wanted, one unicorn to work magic against increasingly troublesome dragons. Ability to sparkle a plus." Shares -0.3% premarket. Comment! [Tech]
- Friday, December 16, 2011, 9:05 AM Microsoft's (MSFT) Online Services division posted a $2.56B operating loss in FY11, thanks to its investments in Bing. However, as market share data shows, Microsoft doesn't have much to show for it. According to comScore, the combined U.S. search share of Bing and partner Yahoo (YHOO) was just 30.1% in November, a figure largely unchanged from April's 30%. NetMarketShare's global data tells a similar story. Comment! [Tech]
- Friday, December 16, 2011, 8:22 AM Two days after Goldman declared Yahoo (YHOO) a Sell, Evercore's Ken Sena is downgrading the company, arguing the potential rewards from the "strategic alternatives" being weighed by Yahoo are matched by the risk of no deal occurring. Should the latter scenario unfold, Sena sees Yahoo shares heading to $12. (yesterday) Comment! [Tech, Quick Ideas, M&A]
- Thursday, December 15, 2011, 10:13 AM A number of lenders are considering contributing to a $4B loan to Alibaba (ALBIY.PK) that will help it buy back part of the 40% stake that Yahoo (YHOO) owns in the company, Basis Point reports. A term sheet could be finalised this week, although a source says, "the deal has a lot of hurdles to overcome." (see also) Comment! [Tech, Consumer]
- Wednesday, December 14, 2011, 3:56 PM In addition to starting Yahoo (YHOO) with a Sell, Goldman's Heath Terry is launching coverage on many other Internet names. GRPN, PCLN, ACOM, and EBAY receive Buy ratings; Terry likes Ancestry.com's business model, and is a fan of Priceline's international exposure. However he's bearish on comScore (SCOR), arguing technology changes will make it hard for the research firm to maintain data quality. 3 Comments [Tech, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, December 14, 2011, 12:05 PM Google (GOOG) Chief Business Officer Nikesh Arora is on a short list of Yahoo (YHOO) CEO candidates, according to a BI source. Also reportedly on the list is board member/former Akamai President David Kenny. Hiring Arora, considered Google's "top salesman," would mesh with Yahoo's interest in improving its sales execution. Mark Andreessen recently shot down speculation he might be in line for the job. Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, December 14, 2011, 9:29 AM Goldman pulls no punches in a bearish report on Yahoo (YHOO), arguing its deteriorating core business outweighs any value that can be unlocked by asset sales. The firm notes Yahoo's global minutes/user are down 5% Y/Y, contrasting starkly with a 5% gain for the Internet overall (Facebook is a likely culprit), and warns its search profits could see further declines. YHOO -1.6%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, December 13, 2011, 3:54 PM Third Point's Dan Loeb is going after Yahoo's (YHOO) board once again, blasting its reported attempts to sell a minority stake to P-E firms, and use the proceeds to buy back stock. Loeb asserts such a deal "will serve only to entrench Mr. Yang and the current board while massively disenfranchising public shareholders," and demands Yahoo make public the proposal letters it sent to third parties. (previously) Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Friday, December 9, 2011, 2:23 PM Marc Andreessen ends the speculation (I, II) that he or partner Jeff Jordan might end up with the head job at Yahoo (YHOO +1.1%) in a blog post: "To be crystal clear, neither Jeff, nor I, nor any of our partners at Andreessen Horowitz, are in the running for, or would accept, any operating role at Yahoo, including CEO, acting CEO, chairman, or executive chairman." 1 Comment [Tech]
- Thursday, December 8, 2011, 5:07 PM Google (GOOG), which reportedly tried to buy mobile reader app developer Flipboard last year, is launching a rival product it calls Currents. The product differs from Flipboard in its focus on news sources rather than Facebook/Twitter links, and features tight Google+ integration. However, Currents faces competition not only from Flipboard, but from many other reader apps, including Taptu, Pulse, and Yahoo's (YHOO) Livestand. (previously) Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, December 8, 2011, 7:05 AM Alibaba is reportedly looking for up to $4B in debt financing for a deal to buy back the 40% of the company owned by Yahoo (YHOO). Analysts say Yahoo's stake is worth at least $9B. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, December 6, 2011, 5:06 PM Yahoo (YHOO) has requested more information and better terms from potential buyers of a minority stake in the company as the board weighs various proposals at hand, Deal Journal reports. Yahoo also reportedly is assessing a possible two-step process in which it would strike a deal for a minority investment, then sell its Asian assets afterward. 1 Comment [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, December 6, 2011, 9:58 AM Newspaper publishers have already talked up the positive impact of Facebook's latest social sharing features, and now Yahoo (YHOO) is doing the same. Yahoo News exec Mike Kerns claims his company's adoption of Facebook's "frictionless sharing" has led to a 600% increase in traffic from Facebook to Yahoo, and a marked increase in younger visitors.
