At 21 / 02 / 2016 we mentioned for first time that Yahoo is seriously considering the sale of the company. A publication of re / code reveals that Microsoft could be one of the companies that are planning to help with the Yahoo buyers interested in finding a worthwhile amount. We mention one of the companies because it has shown interest from a group of companies.
Αυτό που είναι πολύ σημαντικό να σημειωθεί, είναι ότι η Microsoft δεν ψάχνει να αγοράσει τη Yahoο, αλλά επιθυμεί περισσότερο να διασφαλίσει άσχετα με το ποιος θα το κάνει, ότι θα συνεχίσει την εταιρική σχέση με τις υπηρεσίες αναζήτησης του Redmond.
The agreement between Microsoft and Yahoo was one of the catalysts in the development of Bing, the searching machine of Redmond which has significantly improved its market share in recent years. Third-party data puts Bing at 20%, while Google still leads the wayletterthe with almost a 65%.
Although Redmond does not currently plan to buy Yahoo, it has been considering it theme in the past when former CEO Steve Ballmer tried to negotiate a deal in 2008.
Instead of acquiring the company, Microsoft and Yahoo signed a Bing search engine contract for 10 years.
There are currently no details of the amount that the group of companies is willing to pay for the acquisition of Yahoo, but rumors say that the company is valued at about $ 10 billion without all adjacent services and subsidiaries around the world. If they are included in the takeover, the price could reach $ 32 billions, as the publication says.
