er der ikke en historie om at et tysk firma vil opkøbe dem?

18080 Axel Springer har øget deres andel fra lidt over 30 til lidt over 50% og skal derfor afgive købstilbud på resten. Deres købspris må så åbenbart have været højere end gårsdagens urs.

3/9 2009 17:18 TheNobleKing 018082 Jvf. Nordea-notat i dag: Søndagsavisen kan komme i fokus i torsdagens aktiehandel, fordi den tyske mediekoncern Axel Springer sent onsdag afgav et overtagelsesbud på den norske jobportal Stepstone. Søndagsavisen har også aktiviteter inden for online-jobformidling - blandt andet Ofir.
Spændende at følge SOEN og OFIR, hvis noget lignende skulle overgå dem?

3/9 2009 17:25 kulsgaard 018086 Det tror jeg ikke , fordi det er ikke 3 år siden at richart bunck oprettede et nyt selskab hvor han placerede hele sin aktiepost i soen, antagelig for at kunne sælge dem skattefrit efte 3 års ejerskab.
det kan være at ofir sælges fra, men den har aldrig været den store succes , så værdien må være begrænset

Det er rigtigt at Ofir vist nok kun har givet overskud i boom året 2007. Men de har et spændende marked på gratisaviser nu hvor Islændingene gik konkurs.
3/9 2009 18:13 TheNobleKing 018093 Jeg kunne sagtens forestille mig Søndagsavisen (SOEN) i spil ... der er vist ikke mange mediehuse, der i disse tider ikke har antennerne ude efter mulige alliancer, opkøb, frasalg m.v.
