The TradeDoubler-AOL deal likely to fall through
We’ve been covering the AOL offer on the European affiliate network TradeDoubler previously here on 901am. The latest in this affair is that the deal is likely to fall through as more shareholding funds are backing out. This according to a Reuters report.
That same report states that it expects AOL to raise its bid and extend the deadline for the deal.
I personally think this deal will fall through. AOL isn’t prepared to pay enough for TradeDoubler, and since the company is doing more than fine on its own it can afford to wait. But we’ll see.
