Amazon.com Inc. Research Reports
On August 25, 2014, Amazon.com Inc. (Amazon) announced that it has completed an agreement to acquire Twitch Interactive, Inc. (Twitch), a live video platform for gamers. The shareholders of Twitch have agreed to the acquisition, which is expected to close in second half of 2014, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company will acquire all the outstanding shares of Twitch for c.$970 million, payable in cash, as adjusted for the assumption of options and other items. Jeff Bezos, Founder and CEO of Amazon, said "Broadcasting and watching gameplay is a global phenomenon and Twitch has built a platform that brings together tens of millions of people who watch billions of minutes of games each month - from The International, to breaking the world record for Mario, to gaming conferences like E3. And, amazingly, Twitch is only three years old. Like Twitch, we obsess over customers and like to think differently, and we look forward to learning from them and helping them move even faster to build new services for the gaming community."
