WP Fast Dash Review - Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is about to go public in what is most likely to become the biggest internet IPO ever, and Yahoo is going to reap a massive cash windfall. The company is required to sell half of its roughly remaining 23% of Alibaba. For more information, one can view the Weebly.com - WP Fast Dash Review webpage.
Yahoo had bought about a 40% stake in Alibaba back in 2005. The company was worth $2.5 billion back then, but today Alibaba is valued at more than $200 billion! (Ultimately depending on the IPO of course). Therefore, Yahoo stands up to make about $12 billion (before taxes) when Alibaba's shares start to trade publicly. More information may be read on the Facebook.com - WP Fast Dash Review Fanpage.
When Yahoo had sold its first batch of Alibaba shares, about half of its interest, Yahoo had roughly made $7 billion, which works out to be about $4.3 billion after taxes; most of which was returned back to shareholders. Institutional investors will push for something similar to be done by Yahoo this time as well. One may also watch the YouTube.com - WP Fast Dash Review video as well for more insights.
Many people today disagree with Yahoo's market capitalization and growth of its share price, but they are essentially about its Asian assets, which includes Alibaba. It's not really about Yahoo's core businesses, which has flatlined. So after the IPO, there will be increasing pressure on Marissa Mayer who is CEO at Yahoo, to continue growing the company's advertising business.
Mobile and video platforms, but particularly mobile are areas where Yahoo is likely to look for revenue and usage. We will probably see smaller ad-tech acquisitions too.
Within Yahoo's investments possibilities, Pinterest could be an immediate and logical candidate. Although, Pinterest has a valuation of about $4 Billion and is unlikely to go ahead with public offering.
Snapchat could be another possibility. However, Snapchat has a value of several billion dollar and has reportedly turned down offers from Google and Facebook several months ago. In addition to that, Snapchat seems to have an unstable and uncertain foreseeable longer-term future ahead of it, so no promises there.
