Going through Yahoo’s 10-Q for the first two quarters of this year, some interesting figures emerge:
– Yahoo closed one acquisition in Q1 of this year: a software development company was bought for approximately $58 million and consisted of $54 million in cash consideration, $3 million related to stock options exchanged and $1 million of direct transaction costs. SiliconBeat recently wrote about Yahoo’s buyout of Verdisoft, a mobile syncing software development company, so this has to be the one.
– In Q2, Yahoo bought three companies: the total estimated purchase price for all three was about $37 million and consisted of $32 million in cash consideration, $3 million related to stock options exchanged, and $2 million of incurred liabilities and direct transaction costs. That price includes the three publicly announced buyouts I could find: Flickr, DialPad, and Stadeon.
