| The $1 million of common stock of the Company will be subject to a dollar-for-dollar forfeiture if Web Diversity does not earn an aggregate pre-tax income of at least $1 million during the first 8 quarters |
|
| The Company expects the pre-tax income of Web Diversity for the twelve months following the closing to approach $500,000 |
|
What do you think of the valuation? A SEO company is worth 2 years pre-tax profit? Also, in case of acquisitions like this, what does THP get? Clients, people and the SEO processes used by the company?

What can I say - couldn't happen to a nicer guy :) I particularly like the bit about getting paid large bundle of dosh to whizz off to Hong Kong and set up there. Well done, Jim.

Thanks for all your kind comments. All much appreciated. I am looking forward to Shanghai immensely and only wish it didn't clash with PubCon as it's hard to be in two places at once, and I wanted to be there as well, but as you can see from the press release Asia is a big deal for us, and timing is important. I am actually heading to Hong Kong for 4 days first 10th thru 14th and have some spare time over the weekend. If there are any WebmasterWorld members who are around and about that weekend (i.e. not going to PubCon) would love to hook up for a beer or three (on me) and to pick your brains. We actually turned 5 years old as a company yesterday, so the timing was great, and we looked at a lot of different scenarios before opting for this one. The opportunity is great, people are great and the ethos of what is trying to be achieved is 100% consistent with ours, so it made perfect sense. Once again thanks for your comments, means a lot coming from my extended family! It's partly for working on this that I have been slightly absent from posting etc.

Hey Joe, was glad to be able to buy you a guinness, after all you had been here for 24 hours without one!

So - I should have been reading WebmasterWorld instead of seeing you London on Wedenesday! Good man. The deal sounds complicated mate, but soooo well deserved. Dixon.
