Playboy going Private? - GoFuckYourself.com

Forest · 07-12-2010, 06:39 AM

CNBC just had a segment saying Hef wants to take the company private

DamianJ · 07-12-2010, 06:46 AM

Yes

Then he can spunk as much money as he wants on whores and viagra without those pesky shareholders suggesting he shouldn't.

I know a bunch of guys who were in talks about buying the company about a year ago but I don't believe they did in the end. Point being Hef was trying to sell the company back then so it does surprise me unless he's doing it to sell.

There is big money to be made taking a public company private for a few years and then taking it public again.

Hank_Heartland · 07-12-2010, 07:23 AM

Damn Forest...you beat me...What were you doing staying up all night with the news scanner

Phoenix · 07-12-2010, 07:24 AM

hmm interesting...i would think it would be too expensive to take private once its public

Heff has said for years that his biggest mistake was going Public, so I think he wants complete control again

Forest · 07-12-2010, 07:39 AM

seeandsee · 07-12-2010, 08:45 AM

he really don't have to do anything

candyflip · 07-12-2010, 08:51 AM

What does Hef do besides OK some photos and parade around the Mansion with young chicks?

I don't believe for a second that he's making any major company decisions these days.

Paul Markham · 07-12-2010, 10:21 AM

He created it and good luck to him getting back full control.

RyuLion · 07-12-2010, 10:23 AM

Smart move...2cents.

DatingGold · 07-12-2010, 10:29 AM

He'll be dead before its private again.

A bidding war for the bunny may be about to break out.

Playboy Enterprises looks likely to be in play, with opposing bids from founder Hugh Hefner and the company that owns long-time rival Penthouse magazine. Shares of Playboy [PLA 5.5096 1.5696 (+39.84%) ] shot up 42 percent in New York Stock Exchange mid-day trade.

he owns like 69% of the A stock and 20+% of the B

so he does have the power to make desicions there

Tasty1 · 07-12-2010, 02:46 PM

Maybe he wants the sell all his stocks Playboy and uses this strategy to get the stocks up again.

pornguy · 07-12-2010, 03:04 PM

I have 10 shares.
