The last couple of weeks have been fraught with rumors regarding a Dell buyout. Word that Dell was looking to go private once more started doing the rounds in mid-January. More recent rumors pointed to sizable investments from Silver Like and Microsoft as well as Michael Dell himself. Bloomberg this morning reported that the Dell board met last night to vote on the deal, and it seems all went according to plan, as Dell has just announced a $24 billion deal to go private.
Over the last week or so there has been a lot of buzz surrounding a leveraged buyout of computer manufacturer Dell by a consortium led by company founder Michael Dell. Michael Dell has been working with Silver Lake Partners and Microsoft to take the company private.
Michael Dell has previously been tipped to be using his current 16% ownership in the computer company he founded and as much as $1 billion of his own money in a bid to become the majority owner if the buyout goes through. A source that claims to be familiar with the negotiations says that the Dell board voted last night on whether or not to take the buyout offer.
