Adultfriendfinder sold $500 million

More on the acquisition rumor from yesterday - another source now says they were acquired by Penthouse Media Group, and the price was closer to $500 million. While the buyer and size of the transaction are still somewhat vague, it seems clear from multiple sources now that Various, Inc., the parent company to Adult FriendFinder and other sites, has been acquired.

so it wasnt safeway and it was for only 500 million now?


Hate rumors and the thought of safeway owning it with their evil little cards was just to wonderful to pass up.

I hope when all the rumors are done flying around and the smoke clears, I hope it turns out that adultfriendfinder has been aquired by Dunkin Donuts.

Zango, the torrent sites, and such are a really nice way to puff up traffic and make the sites look even more popular.

Exactly..

And its already been well documented at the Shareholder and VIP gathering who actually bought them. You guys are fucking idiots to beleive rumors over fact.

There was a shareholder meeting, and people have already reported what went on. Cant you guys read?

Let me spell it out for you..

Am I missing something here? How does a non public company have a shareholder meeting?

As far as I know, Various is a privately help corp. with no shareholders....

Please shed some light on this...

Presumably sale was cash and stock.... this would mean that the shareholders of various are now shareholders of a public company (safeway).

Wonder if theyll get a discount on their groceries too?

a lot of sudden buys:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/it?s=PRVT

for almost a double of price, they could get, if they were few days faster:
http://finance.yahoo.com/charts#char...urce=undefined

interesting...and if they acquired something public doesnt know about, its a good way to get to the prison.
