Microsoft: We Offered Deal Worth More Than $33, Nutbag Yahoos Still in Dreamland
Microsoft (MSFT) issues its own statement about the Yahoo (YHOO) talks breaking down. Key points:
- We were prepared to do a search-only deal worth more than $33. This is presumably the byzantine three-part transaction described a month or so back, in which Microsoft would take Yahoo's search business, Yahoo would recapitalize its display business, and Yahoo's Asian assets would be sold off. This deal never made any sense, in our opinion, so we don't blame Yahoo for rejecting it.
- We're still prepared to do this deal--unless/until Yahoo does a search deal with Google, in which case all bets are permanently off.
People close to Microsoft say that, during this final round of negotiations, Yahoo eventually offered to sell itself for $33, the same price as the offer it turned down a month ago. But Microsoft no longer has any interest in buying the company at this price, sources say--in part because Yahoo's business continues to deteriorate.
We strongly believe that Jerry Yang and Yahoo could have reached a deal with Microsoft at $34-$35 in mid-Febrary if they had not been so dead-set against the idea. Even with a Google search deal all but confirmed, the stock closed this evening at $23.50.

Have IQ's dropped or don't people understand "We're not interested in buying all of Yahoo."
How many times does Microsoft have to say it?
Has anyone else wanted to buy Yahoo at any price?
This whole deal is like a bad car accident.
Now move along...
Let the countdown begin on Ballmer!
psst.
this is all a ploy to get icahn to dump before the meeting. no google deal announcement.
These guys are all clowns. The only one who comes out of this without a massive cartoon of eggs on his face is Eric Schmidt.
Very good observation. As Yang said earlier, MSFT didn't specify clearly what they mean by $33 offer. I'm sure YHOO BOD offered to agree to $33 last weekend, with the valuation guarantees. MSFT must have balked at those and walked. This would be very useful for YHOO BOD, when they defend their actions in court. They can just say, "Ballmer Balked and Walked"!!
As a bonus mistake: Yahoo should never have hired Terry Semel. They guy didn't even know how to use email!
http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/06/12/yahoo-losing-two-more/
Tech crunch is reporting that things are falling apart at Yahoo. They broke the story about a goog-yhoo deal at 1:30.
Where is it Henry?
Remember Terry Semel tried to buy facebook for 1B$ and then changed the price to 800M$ at the last moment. MSFT is trying to do the same with YHOO. But they fail to realize that Yang is not desperate and the GOOG boys are his buddies. So he won't stab them in the back, unless the MSFT offer is really really good...
That being said, I don't thing MSFT execs did themselves any favor by taking a bullying tone right from the beginning - If they thought YHOO was strategically important they should have been a little more savvy in their dealings earlier on.
Nevertheless, the whole process has hopefully lit a fire under YHOO's a$$ and if they can stop the bleeding with all the execs jumping ship, YHOO shareholder might see a better day!
As for MSFT, if Ballmer can stop thinking about building an empire - I think he can get this deal done. Like Henry as mentioned several times here - the best possible deal would be to merge the MSFT's online business with Yahoo with MSFT as a majority shareholder. But alas, the ego maniacs could not see a 'good deal' if it hit them on their face!
I did not expect this. I thought some sort of deal will happen between msft and yahoo. Any one has a guess for the stock price once the goog deal is announced?
"As stated on May 3rd and reiterated on May 18th Microsoft was not interested in rebidding for all of Yahoo!. Our alternative transaction remains available for discussion."
Isn't that a cue to Icahn to pursue his plan to remove YHOO leadership?
6:30pm est
Were Icahn to right about now decide to hire a hit man... it'd take him a while just to figure out what address to give him.
You are right, NOW, after all of this maneuvering, GOOG strangely enough are his buddies.
If Jerry plays it right, he can use the newly arriving cash flow to innovate/compete in earnest. Of course that's going to require kicking everyone at Yahoo in their collective behinds and restructuring/flattening for more HUNGER.
Nothing is guaranteed, but in the meantime, MSFT has got nothing to work with. Then again, maybe they never did. As I said in another comment here today:
"You see, entrepreneurship is fundamentally concerned with arbitrage, that is, putting resources towards their highest and best uses. And combining MSFT’s money and inferior technology together with Yahoo’s inferior technology and user eyeballs does NOT a winning combination make. Period.
If you combine money with eye-balls, what have you got? A waste of $ and a combinatory nightmare."
Cheers!
But this whole story has played out almost exactly as if MSFT had wanted to mess w/ YHOO, possibly damaging it so badly in the process that they could pick up the pieces for nothing. ... Or to not HAVE to pick up the pieces, merely welcome all the ex-Yahoo users to MSN.
So Google gets a few more ad links? Really, Microsoft knows that there was no stopping that juggernaut anyway. And their lobbyists can ensure that the Senate does their bidding, keeping a direct deal from being done. (That's one of the problems with the do-nothing administration we have -- it encourages politicians to pretend that they understand the administration of good government.)
