TikTok Deal To Sell U.S. Business Could Be Announced As Soon As Tuesday

TikTok has chosen a bidder for its U.S., New Zealand and Australian businesses, and it could announce the deal as soon as Tuesday, according to people familiar with the situation.

Microsoft, in partnership with Walmart, and Oracle are the two top contenders. The sale price is expected to be in the range of $20 billion to $30 billion, CNBC reported last week.

However, even though TikTok has selected a bidder, the deal could be slowed or derailed by the Chinese government, which updated its technology export list on Friday to include artificial intelligence technology used by TikTok. TikTok's Chinese parent company, Bytedance, said over the weekend that it would need a license from the Chinese government before it can sell to a U.S. Company.

Walmart emerged as a surprise contender last week, saying the social media app would augment its e-commerce efforts.

Walmart originally sought to be the majority owner in the deal in a consortium including Alphabet and SoftBank. But the U.S. Government, which said it will ban TikTok in the U.S. If it doesn't sell to a U.S. Company by Sept. 20, wanted a tech company to lead the deal, according to sources familiar with the matter. Alphabet and SoftBank then dropped out, and Walmart partnered with Microsoft on the bid. In that scenario, Walmart would be a minority owner of TikTok.

TikTok's CEO Kevin Mayer resigned last week as the deal neared its close, after just a few months on the job. TikTok executive Vanessa Pappas was named interim boss. Pappas told CNBC in an interview on Friday that she saw synergies with Walmart thanks to new e-commerce tools inside the TikTok app.

Representatives for Microsoft, Walmart and TikTok declined to comment.

Married Father Now Paralyzed After A Business Trip To Memphis

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - A scrap metal dealer came to Memphis to buy car parts from a regular customer. It was while he waited on the customer that his life changed forever.

Tommy White, a 38-year-old married father of four and Ripley, Tenn. Resident, is now paralyzed from the chest down after being shot during a robbery in Memphis at the end of June.

“It’s not fair. It’s not fair for him. It’s not fair to any of us,” Rebecca, White’s wife, said.

Rebecca White says it’s not fair that her husband is paralyzed and now sits in a hospital bed in his living room.

Tommy White was parked at Lamar and Bellevue around 3 p.M. Near the Checkers waiting for a customer who had car parts to sell him. Then two men with the AK-47s approached his vehicle and threatened him. White says he gunned his truck, and that’s when the men shot him. He ended up crashing into the sign at the Lamplighter Inn sign across the street.

“Two guys came up to both sides of the truck with AK-47s and pointed the gun at me and told me to give them the money or they’re going to kill me,” he said.

White says he doesn’t know where the men came from.

“I can’t work. I can’t get out and do the things I want to do. I always wanted to do spend time with my kids outside,” White said.

He and his wife’s children range from seven to 16 years old. They have been helping out since the life-changing incident.

“They should be out here playing ball and they can’t do that. Dad needs help getting dressed. Dad needs help brushing his teeth. Dad can’t get up and cook his own meal anymore,” White said.

White says he was aware that Memphis can be dangerous and that he was careful. He even had a t-shirt saying ’I survived Memphis.’

Even though tragedy struck the Whites, the couple is very generous in their feelings about the suspects.

“I want justice, but I also want them to change their lives,” he said.

White doesn’t have much of a description of the suspects - just two guys in their early 20s, one with long dreads and the other with short hair.

Gogo Selling Part Of Its Business For $400 Million

Gogo is selling its business of providing in-flight internet access and entertainment to commercial airlines to satellite communications provider Intelsat for $400 million in cash.

Chicago-based Gogo, which went public in 2013, has struggled to earn enough money from airlines and travelers to cover the immense cost of delivering service to airplanes. But it has been particularly hard-hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has crushed commercial air travel. Gogo furloughed 600 workers in April and said July 30 it would permanently cut 143 jobs.

Gogo reported Aug. 10 that its second-quarter sales fell 55 percent. “It certainly was an extraordinary quarter, but for all the wrong reasons. I think I can sum it up by saying that if you sell internet on airplanes and no one's on the plane, it's tough,” CEO Oakleigh Thorne said before announcing Gogo had been shopping the business.

Intelsat, a satellite provider based in Luxembourg that filed for bankruptcy protection in May, received approval Monday to buy the commercial airline business from Gogo. Intelsat has a $1 billion debtor-in-possession credit facility.

Gogo says it will remain a public company. It plans to use some of the cash to pay down the company’s $1.1 billion in debt.

“This transaction creates a stronger and more focused Gogo, with the singular strategic imperative of serving the business aviation market with the best inflight connectivity and entertainment products in the world,” Thorne said in a statement.

The companies said Intelsat will operate the commercial aviation business as an independent business based in Chicago.

The deal takes Gogo back to its roots, when it was founded in 1991 as Air Cell, a provider of wireless service to business aircraft. Unlike commercial aviation, which is down about 80 percent, Gogo said its business aviation traffic is the reverse.

The business aviation unit has 30 percent higher revenue than commercial aviation. A year ago, commercial aviation was twice as large. More importantly, business aviation is profitable. Commercial aviation is losing money.
