Barnes & Noble (NYSE:BKS) is still in active discussions with Liberty Media, though constraints on financing may prohibit a whole company deal and instead lead to an investment, a source familiar with the situation told dealReporter.
On 17 May Barnes & Noble announced it had received a proposal from Liberty Media to acquire the New York-based book retailer at a price of USD 17 per share in cash. A spokesperson for Barnes & Nobel said it was company policy not to comment on market speculation. Liberty Media was not immediately available for comment.
Two sources familiar with the situation and an industry banker following the situation said financing constraints had quieted deal talk. One of the sources said that a preferred share investment was one avenue being actively discussed between Liberty and Barnes & Noble. While the purchase of Barnes & Noble was not completely off the table, one of the sources said, an investment may be more likely. |
