I think what’s happening is normal business stuff. What do IAC dividends have to do with anything? Of course shareholders and executives get the cake, you think us lowly shareholders are going to get a piece of the action in a down market?

I talk to investment bankers all the time, believe me they are paying attention to the public companies. Not sure I would short Meetic at this point.

What is happening at Match? A massive purge? a downsizing? a reengineering process?

Former CEOs were Tim Sullivan & Jim Safka, they lasted less than 3 years each one. Outgoing CEO Thomas Enraght-Moony lasted less than 2 years.

IAC (NASDAQ-NMS:IACI) rarely pays dividends to its shareholders and shares had been falling down since years.
Meetic (Paris: MEET.PA / ISIN FR0004063097) is also a public company. Its shares has been oscillating since IPO and falling down since Oct2007.

Directors, CEO’s, Chiefs Officers and Preferred Shareholders receive the cake and Common Shareholders receive portions of a biscuit.

I should have been clearer about the 2.5X, which applies to the overall business growth not revenue. Fernando, you really have absolutely no idea what goes on at Match.

“Outgoing CEO Thomas Enraght-Moony grew Match 2.5X during his tenure, which began in April of 2007.”

2.5X ???

Q1 2007 1,338,900 worldwide Paid Subscribers
Q4 2008 1,347,300 worldwide Paid Subscribers

Suppose now a 22% increase in worldwide Paid Subscribers to 1,643,706 thanks to recession boost.

Outgoing CEO Thomas Enraght-Moony had been flying in automatic pilot.
