Verizon to acquire Yahoo for bout $5 bil

[Why-Fi]

Verizon agrees to buy Yahoo for $4.83 billion

Yahoo has agreed to sell its core business to Verizon for $4.83 billion, signaling an end to one of the internet's most pioneering companies as a standalone entity.

Under the deal, Verizon will acquire Yahoo's search, mail and instant messaging services, along with its ad platform and a few real estate holdings. Yahoo's ad business and digital content services — including Yahoo Finance and Yahoo Sports — will be of significant value to Verizon as it looks to expand its offerings in this space following the acquisition of AOL last year for $4.4 billion. The move puts Verizon behind Google and Facebook in the U.S. digital ad segment, with a total share of 4.5%.
