Nielsen jumps 6.2% on word P-E sale is close
Apr. 3, 2019 12:35 PM ET|About: Nielsen Holdings plc (NLSN)|By: Jason Aycock, SA News Editor

After hanging on steady 1% gains most of today, Nielsen Holdings (NYSE: NLSN) has spiked 6.2% amid chatter that it's close to a deal to sell to private equity.

That would come via a final-round bid said to be in the low-$30 range for shares, which are currently up to $25.59.

Previously: Nielsen -9.5% amid weaker case for sale (Mar. 28 2019)

Previously: Nielsen -10% on report Blackstone's out of auction for company(Mar. 27 2019)

Had this as a value play last time they missed on earnings(7/2018). Picked up a few shares at $21/share and sold in a few weeks at/near $26/share. The GN valuation was high $20's so at the time seemed low risk.

Now this report w/ Private Equity company is interested. Still think it is a dying business unless they can change their business model towards online (what AMZN & Google do now).
