Broadcom (US.AVGOF) in Talks to Pay About $60 Billion for VMware (US.VMW) - 24 mai 2022: Diferență între versiuni

Broadcom Inc. is in talks to pay around $60 billion for VMware Inc., people familiar with the matter said, in what would be one of the biggest takeover deals of the year. The deal discussions, which picked up pace in recent days, come roughly six months after computing pioneer Dell Technologies Inc. spun off its 81% equity stake in VMware. 

Dell founder Michael Dell remains chairman of VMware. He and private-equity firm Silver Lake, which helped take Dell private in 2013, together control a more-than-50% stake in VMware. That gives them significant influence over the VMware’s decisions and potentially puts them at odds with other shareholders, the company has warned in its securities filings.
