Square deal for C-Cube digital TV
Source: Electronics Times
Publication date: Jan 01, 1999

[C-Cube Microsystems] is to sell its DiviCom digital TV business to broadcast technology group [Harmonic] and is to spin-off or sell its semiconductor business.The $1.47bn all-stock deal will see DiviCom's expertise in AV encoding, MPEG2 compression and network management added to Harmonic's skills in interactive TV, video-on-demand and high-speed Internet access.Alexandre Balkanski, C-Cube's CEO, said: "The combination creates a powerful broadband networking company that is the premier provider of open solutions for voice, video and data infrastructure."The semiconductor spin-off is regarded as a potential win-win option for C-Cube's shareholders, who are also set to gain a substantial stake in Harmonic.With a chip range stretching across DVD players, set-top boxes and codecs, C-Cube is thought likely to attract either a solid market valuation or a healthy price in a trade sale. Harmonic and C-Cube expect to close the deal during the first quarter of 2000.
