Montag, 03. Dez. 2007 12:11 - [jp]

Activision und die Spieleabteilung von Vivendi, zu der auch Blizzard gehört, fusionieren.

Das neue Unternehmen trägt den Namen "Activision Blizzard", leiten soll dies der bisherige Activision Chef Robert Kotick, welcher mit folgenden Worten zitiert wird:

"This is an outstanding transaction for Activision and our stockholders, as well as a pivotal event in the continuing transformation of the interactive entertainment industry. By combining leaders in mass-market entertainment and subscription-based online games, Activision Blizzard will be the only publisher with leading market positions across all categories of the rapidly growing interactive entertainment software industry and reach the broadest possible audiences. By joining forces with Vivendi Games, we will become the immediate leader in the highly profitable online games business and gain a large footprint in the rapidly growing Asian markets, including China and Korea, while maintaining our leading operating performance across North America and Europe. Activision stockholders will benefit from significantly increased earnings power and the recurring nature and predictability of subscription-based revenues, while also having the opportunity, if they choose, to receive .50 per share for a portion of their shares in the post-closing tender offer."
