I read your post this morning about the Think/Together Deal and have several questions that maybe you can answer or post about.
- Where does this currently leave Vinticom? Are they still owned by Think?
- Is Vinticom still trying to sell themselves? What’s Vinticom’s status?
- Any information about Vinticom’s financials would be interesting.
- What’s the status of Together/Right One? Where they bought by the ‘Chicago Group’? If yes, what was the purchase price and details on the acquisition including but not limited to multiples, etc.
- Is this ‘Chicago Group’ looking to purchase another dating company now that the deal with Think did not go through?
- It would make sense for the Chicago Group to just purchase Vinticom and not involve itself with the Adult sites. Why would they bother with purchasing the Adult sites? Why is Think not willing to separate these 2 transactions.
- How does Together plan to merge the online/offline dating world now that their deal with Vinticom did not happen?
Besides spelling Vintacom incorrectly, these are good questions. If Terry or Paul could chime in publicly that would be great.
