Softbank Buys 70% Of Sprint

Softbank Buys 70% Of Sprint | cross pond high tech | Scoop.it
A $20 billion deal....expected to be announced Monday morning and while certain details are still being worked out, the boards of both companies have signed off on a transaction under which Softbank will buy $8 billion worth of shares directly from Sprint [S 5.73 -0.03 (-0.52%) ] and tender for another $12 billion worth of the shares from existing holders.

The price of the tender offer is $7.30 a share, a large premium to Sprint's current price. Given the deal's structure, it will not require a shareholder vote.

SAI chart of the day shows that Google's Chrome browser, which doesn't come pre-installed on any computer, has leapt past Internet Explorer, which is pre-installed in over 90% of all computers, to become the most popular web browser.

Firefox seems to be sliding too, while Safari, though still modest, is gaining share discreetly. The same chart limited to mobile browsing shall be interesting too !
