On November 1, 2011 interclick and Yahoo! announced plans for an acquisition and execution of a definitive merger agreement.  Under the terms of the agreement, Yahoo! will commence an all cash tender offer for all outstanding shares of common stock of interclick at $9.00 per share. The transaction has an estimated total equity value of approximately $270 million. The transaction was unanimously approved by the interclick Board of Directors and all interclick directors and executive officers have entered into agreements with Yahoo! to support the transaction and to tender their shares in the offer. The companies expect the tender offer to close by early 2012. The closing of the tender offer is subject to customary terms and conditions, including the tender of a number of shares which is at least a majority of the total number of outstanding interclick common shares (determined on a fully diluted basis), the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and other conditions set forth in the agreement. The agreement also provides for a merger to be completed following the tender offer which would result in all shares not tendered being converted into the right to receive $9.00 in cash.
