Und auch der Traffic kommt aus verschiedenen Quellen:
- Regional Media
- Local Search Engines
- 3rd Party Domains
- Flagship Site
- Owned Domains
Nun könnte man das auch als Verzettelung interpretieren, was ich allerdings nicht so sehe. So wie es im Local-Bereich im Offline-Bereich eine millionenfache Vielfalt gibt, wird es auch im Online-Bereich sein - es wird also in diesem Bereich auf keinen Fall eine The-Winner-Takes-It-All-Szenerie geben, denn die Strukturen sind nicht so einfach wie in den Bereichen, wo sich The-Winner-Takes-It-All-Strukturen durchgesetzt haben.

Das vorige Agreement wurde gecancelt. Der sofort zu zahlende Betrag ist mit 2,3 Mio jetzt etwas höher als vorher (1,5 Mio), dafür ist keine Rede mehr von den 7 Mio. Buyout-Summe in den Folgejahren. So hat es auch ein User im Y-Board verstanden. Wenn diese Interpretation stimmt, wird Rovion deutlich günstiger übernommen.
Was Rovion angeht, wird man hoffentlich bald durch Aktivitäten zeigen, dass dieser Laden zu Local.com passt. Leichte Zweifel habe ich da durchaus noch, da das ja was ganz neues im Portfolio ist und zudem an der Ostküste liegt.
"Under the terms of the agreement, Local.com will acquire the assets of Rovion for $1.5 million in cash with an earnout of up to $7 million in cash and/or stock if certain performance criteria are met in the three-year period following the closing."

Local.com kommt damit wieder ein Stück dabei voran, den Erlös pro User zu erhöhen.

dann ist das wirklich ein Mega-Schnäppchen!
Aber es kommt drauf an, was man draus macht. Gannett hat ja bei seinem Kauf von Pointroll auch auf Synergien gesetzt. Siehe Artikel in diesem Posting:

Aufgrund der Beziehungen zwischen dem Local.com Management und DGLP gehe ich mal davon aus, dass Heath Clarke genau weiß, was er hier tut. Er ist ja schließlich Insider:
Aus dem SEC-Filing:
"The Registrant has also previously had contractual relationships with DGLP and Rovion for the provision of certain development services. Additionally, the Registrant loaned DGLP $375,000, which amounts will be repaid by DGLP, per the Agreement, from the purchase price. Our chairman and chief executive officer, Heath Clarke, has served on the Advisory Board of DGLP since August 2006. Norman K. Farra, Jr., a member of our Board of Directors, served on the Advisory Board of DGLP from September 2007 to February 2010 and has previously provided financial advisory services to DGLP, as recently as February 2010. Mr. Clarke owns 175,395 shares of common stock of DGLP, has options to purchase 169,194 shares of DGLP common stock at an exercise price of $0.133 per share and 225,592 shares of DGLP common stock at an exercise price of $0.089 per share. Mr. Farra owns 181,000 shares of common stock of DGLP, has warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock of DGLP at a strike price of $0.05 per share and warrants to purchase 181,000 shares of common stock of DGLP at a strike price of $0.055 per share. Mr. Sawtell previously served as the president and chief operations officer of the Registrant from March 2000 to March 2005."
Exakt das gleiche Schema liegt auch bei der anderen Internet-Aktie vor, zu der ich sei ca. acht Jahren poste, Internet Capital vor. Auch dort ist der Chef noch der gleich wie in 1999/2000 - und das bietet immer Ansatzpunkte für Shortseller, die aber nicht den Hauch einer Chance haben, wenn die Fundamentals gut sind und keine Schulden mehr existieren. Und genau das ist bei beiden Unternehmen der Fall.

Wenn die allerdings erst jetzt gestartet sind, können die logischerweise im ersten Quartal noch nichts zum Umsatz beitragen, wie das die von PONZI-The-Street-Sweeper-Gambino-Nackten-Shortselling-Banditen bezahlten Basher auf den US-Boards verlangen.

Die würden gut zu Local.com passen, sind aber privat ("Deep pocket investor pool").
"Focused ONLY on Publishers and Broadcasters - Analog does not compete with its clients"
Die Abgrenzung ist mir allerdings nicht ganz klar, denn das Geschäft scheint sich mit dem zu überschneiden, was Local.com machen will.
