@foxenflask I remember seeing this deal happening, and not understanding how it would be possible. VERY similar to the current situation. Well done.

The best M&A precedent for the $GME x $EBAY deal is InBev’s $52 billion hostile takeover of Anheuser‑Busch in 2008.
Mergers and acquisitions are studied similar to how legal precedent is studied, to get an idea of how something might go down or what will happen next, while knowing that each case is still unique to its set of specifics. A thread.
In 2007, InBev generated about €14.4 billion of revenue with an EBITDA margin in the mid 30s. It was a Belgian Brazilian brewing group that had been publicly listed on Euronext Brussels since 2000, when its predecessor Interbrew did an IPO there, but it was not a company that most U.S. investors followed closely. Anheuser-Busch, by contrast, was a 150 year old American institution with deep political connections and a board that treated itself as untouchable. InBev acquired it anyway.
