KKR To Buy Internet Brands for $1.1 Billion
by Reuters Jun 3rd 2014 9:40AM

Private-equity firm KKR & Co. said it would buy Internet Brands, which operates CarsDirect and other websites, from private-equity firms Hellman & Friedman and JMI Equity.
A source familiar with the matter said the deal was worth about $1.1 billion.
KKR (KKR), which owns the popular Internet domain registration firm GoDaddy.com, is looking to expand Internet Brands' services while focusing on business categories such as automobiles, health, legal, and home and travel.

Internet Brands, which was taken private for $640 million in 2010, also operates websites such as Lawyers.com and ApartmentRatings.com. The company also provides automobile-related software and services to Toyota Motor (TM), Ford Motor (F) and Chrysler Group.

The company's websites receive more than 100 million visitors a month and most of its revenue comes from online advertising.

"Internet Brands is at an exciting inflection point of growth as the company transitions from a portfolio of web assets to a vertically integrated provider of media and client software solutions," the co-head of KKR's technology investing team, Herald Chen, said in a statement.
KKR said it was making the investment through its North America XI private equity fund.
The New York Times had earlier reported the deal.

KKR has no plans to break up the business, two people familiar with the matter told the New York Times.

Internet Brands' chief executive, Bob Brisco, and its management team will hold a minority stake and continue to run the company, the report said.
The El Segundo, California-based company has about 1,600 employees.

KKR acquired a majority stake in Norway-based accounting and payroll software maker Visma in 2010. The company recently cut its stake in Visma to 31.3 percent from 76 percent.

Shares of KKR closed at $22.90 on the New York Stock Exchange on Monday.

Buenos días

Hace pocos días (tal y como indiqué en este foro) solicité a SelfBank los certificados de los RONs que me corresponden como antoguo propietario de WAHUQs/PIERS
Hoy les acabó de solicitar el dividendo correspondiente (ver Link adjunto)

Alguien en situación similar??

Atentamente

Igual el te puede informar al respecto, por supuesto el gran Besugo tambien dice que las lleva pero me gustaría saber lo que te puede informar semejante pieza de museo :)

Suerte

Gracias Mr Simpson!! (supongo que ya leerá el hilo y nos pondrá al día)

Yo estoy en la misma situación que tu. Tenia unas pocas Wahuq también en Selfbank y no me han enviado nada de ellas. Si que tengo los certificados de los scrows de la wampk y las wamuq que también llevaba.

Voy a ver si saco un poco de tiempo y empiezo a moverlo como tu has hecho.

Satinfotec,
Gracias por la info
Por cierto, parece que hay 2 pagos: el pago trimestral (la cuarta parte del 13% del nominal de las RONs) y el dividendo anunciado hoy (http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=62437065) aunque no estoy del todo seguro

Parece que el cupón trimestral ya se ha abonado en USA y que el dividendo sólo se ha anunciado ( y aún no se ha pagado)

Selfbank me ha comunicado ésta misma mañana que tendré el abono del dividendo en mi cuenta esta misma semana, que bien, seguro que lo harán con todos los que estemos en la misma situación.

Antonio: Me alegro mucho... la constancia tiene su premio.
