Alibaba just want to avoid becoming a subsidiary of Yahoo Holdings all the possibilities. In 2005, Yahoo to $ 1,000,000,000 and total assets of Yahoo China, Alibaba in exchange for 39% stake, has become one of the largest shareholder of Alibaba. At that time the two sides signed an agreement, agreed in October 2010, Yahoo may appoint not less than the total number of directors will be appointed group managing director of the number of shareholders, Yahoo will be in October this year, Alibaba second board seat . The same effect since October, Yahoo will be 35% of voting rights to 39%, Ma and other management fell 31.7% from 35.7%, the third largest shareholder Softbank 29.3% remained unchanged. This means that, once these agreements are implemented, and that Yahoo's board may be more than Ma and other forces management to grasp the initiative group, and Ma may lose control of Alibaba. Is perfectly justified by the performance of this Agreement, Alibaba Group, is unwilling to fulfill the agreement. But they do not have many reasons for the refusal, but the man in the Yahoo CEO Bartz do not fly, Yahoo, Alibaba has nothing to help companies such as Yahoo are dying to make a fuss argument moot. Alibaba is the real intention of repurchase of shares, and its purpose is very clear, by paying a huge sum of money to Yahoo to avoid losing management control over the company to avoid Yahoo, Alibaba Group, a subsidiary of situation. Unfortunately, Yahoo rejected the proposal.
Yahoo doomed to not accept the repurchase offer Alibaba, because the money for it is not the first one, it is more like the Yahoo's future. Yahoo's search of the road have been using Microsoft bing with the signing of the agreement fell into decline, but also in the display advertising is facing a sharp downturn. Yahoo proud of the wings have been unable to support its stock price has. Market research firm Stifel Nicolaus, said 85% of Yahoo stock, thanks to Yahoo Japan and Alibaba, Yahoo is even said that Asian companies with U.S. operations. In this case, on the one hand continue to look for their business growth, on the other hand, as Sohu and Sina, as the country's companies have packaged the listing to become a maintenance of benefits, simple and easy way to support the stock price. The latter is in its own business growth Yahoo has not yet before them, the most important way to profitability, even as Yahoo's future business model for some time. Therefore, the future of Yahoo, which apparently prefer to maintain its stake in Alibaba Group, and is eager to get a piece of Alibaba's Alipay and Taobao's market schedule. There are indications that the board increase in seats for Alibaba's request, Yahoo is in recognition of Ma, while the soul of Ali Baba, more like a defensive measure taken to ensure that Yahoo's future financial benefits of life and death of its plan in accordance with the step by step be protected, not there are many uncertainties.
The third largest shareholder Softbank will become the spoiler? Perhaps in the future decision-making on the management side of Alibaba will stand together to contain a substantial shareholder of Yahoo. However, equity issues, it will look like this fun Bale. Yahoo Japan, Yahoo, Alibaba, and Alibaba has just started in Japan, in so many disputes in the course it chose to sit on the sidelines is the best choice. Alibaba to buy back shares it is more like an unrealistic dream. Look Alibaba Disclosure of Listed Companies 2009 Annual Report of the Director of Softbank posted Gang Tian Congliang legislator, secretly increased his holdings in Softbank to know the attitude.
Yaba contradiction is only just two poor communication, both refused to bluff, which makes the inevitable end of the game turned into a zero-sum game. Alibaba management may be strong words for their pay. The face of the established protocol implementation is about to expire, Alibaba requires not only buy back shares, but also claimed that talking tough, its business will not be short listed. This is equivalent to disrupt the largest shareholder in Yahoo is expected in the hearts of its shareholders a direct impact on Yahoo's future. But for now, Yahoo is no longer 2009, when Yahoo, and require companies to instant success, rapidly enhance the price of the Wall Street giant Yahoo, Icahn's left to the slow recovery time, the new CEO Bartz, executive power is also a strong boost the confidence of shareholders. Controlling interest in the competition for this Board Alibaba, Yahoo has broad leeway, and now forced into the Alibaba board seems to have been the most appropriate choice. Although the most likely situation is that Alibaba and Softbank, Yahoo join forces on containment, but has not ruled out the possibility of modest appearance of the most serious consequences - Yahoo Alibaba take over directly to e-business as its core business.
