A consortium led by the chief executive officer of the Chinese online search giant abandoned its bid to buy out its video-streaming operation iQiyi.com Inc after failing to reach an agreement "on the transaction structure and purchase price".
由中国在线搜索引擎巨头百度公司的首席执行官领头的买方财团,宣布撤回之前收购视频流媒体平台爱奇艺的计划,其原因是双方在“交易结构和购买价格”等方面未达成一致。
An investor 1 group led by Baidu CEO Robin 2 Li and iQiyi CEO Gong Yu offered in February to acquire Baidu's 80.5 percent stake in a deal that valued at $2.8 billion.
今年2月,百度CEO李彦宏和爱奇艺CEO龚宇领导的投资集团计划收购百度持有的爱奇艺80.5%的股份,估值为28亿美元。
The pair informed the board that they had withdrawn 3 the offer after failing to strike a deal despite several rounds of discussions, Baidu said last Monday.
百度公司上周一表示,双方在几轮讨论之后仍未达成协议,之后致信百度董事会撤回私有化要约。
多轮谈判未果 李彦宏龚宇撤回爱奇艺私有化要约The withdrawal 4 came days after New York hedge fund Acacia Partners criticized the online search giant for considering selling iQiyi at a price that is "far too low". The hedge fund, which has 2.6 million Baidu shares, cited an independent research report that said the video-streaming business was worth $5.8 billion.
百度股东、纽约对冲基金Acacia Partners批评爱奇艺的出售价格“过低”。Acacia Partner持有260万股百度股票,他引用一家独立研究机构的报告称,流媒体视频平台爱奇艺的估值为58亿美元。
Wu Tianhua, an industry observer specialized 5 in US-list Chinese stocks, said it is quite rare to see the withdrawal of a management buyout proposal.
专注研究美国上市的中国公司股票的业界观察者巫天华表示,管理层撤回收购方案的情况实属少见。
Wu said that changes in regulations in China had made it difficult for loss-making companies, such as iQiyi to go public. "And it would be very pricey to list iQiyi in China through a backdoor listing," he said.
巫天华表示,中国市场规则的变动使爱奇艺这样的亏损公司很难上市。他说道:“爱奇艺要想在中国借壳上市非常昂贵。”
Gong Yu, CEO of iQiyi, said earlier that the company had 20 million paying subscribers in June. The number is small given that the iQiyi app had around 299 million active users in May, said iResearch.
爱奇艺CEO龚宇今年6月曾表示,爱奇艺付费用户已突破2000万。据艾瑞咨询表示,如果爱奇艺APP5月份的活跃用户已经达到大约2.99亿,那么2000万的付费用户并不算多。
