TICKETMASTER ONLINE-CITYSEARCH - TMCS announced it is realigning its
operating units into two groups and also an acquisition. We believe the
realignment allows TMCS to more effectively deliver its leading brand of
local content with its quickly growing online ticket business,
capitalizing on the benefits of the combined companies while recognizing
the differences in each business. TMCS also announced the intended
acquisition of Match.com, an online dating service, which we believe
fits well with the CitySearch story given the concept's local nature.
We believe dating services are a category that can be made larger on the
Web than offline. We look for TMCS to make additional strategic
partnerships and/or acquisitions to enhance local content and commerce.
We also maintain our opinion that TMCS could be an attractive takeover
candidate. We believe TMCS' strategy continually improves and gathers
momentum. We can see multiple catalysts for the stock and believe that
it will return to and move past previous highs.
