北京时间4月25日消息,美国私人股权投资公司Hellman & Friedman LLC今天以11亿美元收购著名网络广告服务商DoubleClick,这一交易将于今年第三季度完成。

  根据协议,Hellman & Friedman LLC将向DoubleClick股东支付每股8.5美元,这一价格比DoubleClick普通股过去30天的平均收盘价高出10.6%。按照这一价格,Hellman & Friedman LLC收购DoubleClick共需支付11亿美元。DoubleClick将于2023年到期的总本金为1.35亿美元的零息次级债券将继续流通,但股东有权要求DoubleClick在收购交易完成之后等值回购债券。风险投资公司JMI Equity也将同Hellman & Friedman一起进行投资,在此之前,两家公司已经在一些软件相关的投资中建立了合作伙伴关系,包括投资于Blackbaud、Mitchell国际以及Vertafore。

  在交易完成之后,DoubleClick公司CEO凯文-瑞恩(Kevin Ryan)将辞去CEO职务。新的董事会成员和董事会主席将于交易完成后指定。目前,这一交易已经获得了DoubleClick董事会的批准,不过还需要等待公司股东的审批。DoubleClick将在交易材料提交给美国证券交易委员会后尽快召开特别股东大会。

Dear Valued Partner,

As you may be aware, several months ago Performics' parent company, DoubleClick, began exploring strategic options to maximize shareholder value. Today we are pleased to announce that the Company has entered into a definitive agreement in which Hellman & Friedman LLC will acquire DoubleClick in an all cash merger. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter.

Based in San Francisco, Hellman & Friedman is a leading private equity firm that has raised and managed over $8 billion and invested in approximately 50 companies during its 20+ year history. Hellman & Friedman shares DoubleClick's vision and understands our industry. Hellman & Friedman has a significant focus on the marketing services and software industries, and has previously invested in companies such as Digitas, Inc. (DTAS), and Young & Rubicam.

The new ownership structure will be a very positive development for partners and employees. In essence, the new structure will separate DoubleClick into two units, online marketing and catalog data. Performics is a part of the online marketing unit. Hellman & Friedman appreciates the potential of our industry and is committed to ensuring that each business unit has the necessary tools and resources to be successful.

It has been an exciting year. Everyone at Performics appreciates your continued support during our recent corporate transitions. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your Performics representative.

Sincerely,

Stuart Frankel
