2000: Valued at $125B 2008: Microsoft's $44.6B offer rejected 2016: Verizon buys for $4.8B
Daily reminder that she's getting an additional $57 million from Verizon in the yahoo buyout, bringing her total compensation to about $225 million for thoroughly running the company into the ground.
Intel has been diversified too HP has already been fucked I think
Nathaniel Clark
I wanted to post underage b& but just realised even 18 year olds have no reason to know Yahoo anymore.
Carter Myers
Your graph doesn't prove shit. "Happened after" doesn't mean "caused by." Obviously Yahoo would be up more with a man as evidenced by all the male billionaires. Men make more money for their businesses.
Matthew Diaz
still would tho
Camden Miller
Did she fuck it up due to incompetence or was it random chance the company went to shit? could be some internal drama we don't know about
Austin Brooks
this. Yahoo was done for when they rejected the Microsoft bid. Their shareholders booted the CEO after that.
Samuel Hughes
she fucked up.
>Yahoo even bought Tumblr.
Carson Richardson

Hahaha fuck me that's great

What the fuck do you know, Turk? Didn't think Muslims would be so cucked. Women can't run businesses.

>not understanding share deflation
They literally just decreased the amount of shares, that chart is elusive.
Josiah Barnes
Well, they can. It's just the ones that are appointed because they are a woman usually fuck things up.
Alexander Lewis
Its not an issue of running it into the ground. It could have been managed better but...
Google and Microsoft presented extremely tough competition.
Elijah Clark

Camden Hall
lol, Microsoft was nothing compared to Yahoo on the web. Yahoo fucked up
Nolan Foster
They correct for this by expressing everything as [past market cap]/[current shares]. Otherwise you would see stock prices randomly get cut in half and it would be retarded. Market cap is the same graph.
Holy shit, did they beat Australia in shitposting?
Thomas James
the worst part is, and you know this is true
this is going to end up on her CV and it will secure her future positions
James James
Buybacks for 200?
Ryan Thompson
What you don't understand is yahoo is huge in Japan and Asia
Nathan Gutierrez
She did good, doe. Yahoo is shit and everyone knew it was on its way out since 2002.
Alexander Smith
doing good is considered waiting 120.4B dollars before selling? sure, thats fantastic
Jason Richardson
You misunderstand the words OP wrote to form an even less informed narrative. What a moron you are.
Hudson Reyes
>Yahoo is shit only after she was done with it. It used to be just behind Google, and way ahead of microsoft.
Owen Thompson
Daily reminder that Yahoo is being ruined by jews so Google can have its monopol on everything information related.
This is not a good thing.
Jason Nelson
You are rewriting history. It was firmly established as utter shit long before 2012. And marginal gains were then made under Mayer.
Aaron Sullivan
Yahoo is such crap
I have an old Yahoo email that I use to sign up for things where I don't want to use my real email.
Do you know what Yahoo does when you clear out the trash folder or spam folder in your email?
It goes "you dont have any spam, so check out these cool videos" and starts autoplaying video ads that are hosted on Yahoo so adblock doesn't block them by default
Who the fuck thought that was a good idea
Easton Davis
yup, and a FUCKING LEAF is defending it:
Elijah Green
? yahoo was fucking dead like 15 years ago
The value of the company was all extrapolation & stock bullshit It didn't have any actual assets
Jaxon Morales
>2008: Microsoft's $44.6B offer rejected >2016: Verizon buys for $4.8B What the literally fuck is wrong with women? It's worth only 10% of when we were in recession? Fucking disgusting
Adam Reyes
Jesus Christ I just went to my trash folder and it actually does that.
Still the best email provider; the disposable addresses feature is unparalleled, I can have like 250 different addresses all going to one inbox that I can send from if need be. Outlook lets you have like 5 and as far as I know Gmail doesn't even offer an option like that. I don't utilize it as well as I used to but it's still great to keep all of my shit compartmentalized in case of database leaks.
Don't fuck up my email Verizon.
Nathaniel Turner
>What the literally fuck is wrong with women? everything
Grayson Foster
(((Mayer))) I thought merchants are supposed to be good at making money.
Austin Gray

i know Sup Forums hates women but come on

When your website is shit and has no more glamour, the image of the site can't be repaired. Why would people give you a second chance? Anyone can make a new site that doesn't have all your ugly legacy bullshit that annoyed them. But you still have some residual users stuck using it, so you don't do anything with it, you don't innovate, you just keep the servers up and put ads in places to milk the last bits out of it. It then becomes a relatively predictable asset like a bond or annuity, only with declining revenue.
You can calculate roughly how much money you expect to milk from it before it becomes unprofitable to keep the servers up. Adjusting for inflation, you can give the website an expected value. And it really is worth that money to someone who has the money to purchase it assuming the analysis is done correct. Since there's risk and they have a minimum % profit they want to make in an investment, they lower the price they're willing to offer. But at this point it really doesn't matter if they provide anything of value, make their customers happy, fix anything, or show any respect or dignity. It's just an instrument, a concept, an ability or right to take advantage of the fact that there's traffic in some corner of the web.
Carter Howard
she didnt save the yahoo brand, but she did save the investor's money with his investments on asian social platforms and alibaba
>bringing her total compensation to about $225 million for thoroughly running the company into the ground. can someone explain to me why bad CEOs get so much compensation for running companies into the ground?
Luke Sanchez
because she didnt run it into the ground. OP is flat out lying:
what they are selling to verizon is only the yahoo (american) brand. which is beyond saving anyway. thats only 15% of the total value of their holdings
she maintained value and potentially increased it, just couldnt save the brand
Anthony Williams
because they're their own boss. plus, she gets extra money for selling the company for vorizon
Ian Edwards
The stock price has doubled since she was appointed 4 years ago. When a target is reached and/or exceeded, they can objectively see it gains the company X dollars and sometimes compensation is tied to that. Taking money out of the bonus for failed projects is a bad strategy if you need to take on more audacious risks. Even if a company has a marginal decline, the CEO might get bonuses if it was expected to be absolutely obliterated (which explains a lot of the banker's bonuses everyone bitched about during the recession). CEOs of massive companies get a shitload of money regardless.

Xavier Moore
Try going to Yahoo India. Its worst than streets of poo. Everywhere there is sex, degeneracy, rape stories for hungry poo brothers. I am not them i am Jewish in India.
Leo Morales
I get your point but you cannot (sadly) use this as an argument since its one case.
If you could produce a statistic that says that women, on average, lead businesses worse than men you can go on a feminist destroying spree.
Jason Thomas
High valued shares doesnt always mean they're doing good
Easton James
Guys remember the 4bn does not include Yahoo stake in Asian companies like Alibaba. That part alone is worth around 30bn. She just sold the relatively worthless online business.
She Still sucks. Bought tumblr for a billion, wrote most of it off. Big fucking surprise: whiny sjws posting porn don't make a site profitable!
