Report: Yahoo in talks with Excite@Home
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com

Yahoo is considering buying Excite@Home in a deal that could significantly extend its market leadership and enable it to offer new services, according to a published report.

The report, citing unnamed sources, said the two companies have held talks over the past six weeks about a possible deal in which Yahoo would buy Excite@Home "for some amount greater than its current market value of $17 billion." The talks are preliminary, according to Business Week Online.

Asked about the report, a spokeswoman for Excite@Home said it was the company's policy to not comment on rumors. Yahoo was not immediately available.

Excite@Home itself was only recently formed through the merger of the portal Excite and @Home, which provides high-speed Internet access. @Home paid $6.7 billion for Excite in a stock deal that was one of the highest-priced Internet mergers to date.

Although Yahoo maintains a comfortable lead over the Excite portal, the Business Week story said it could benefit from the @Home broadband strategy which would help it deliver more rich media services over the Internet.

Excite@Home's stock fell $2.75 to $42.94 and Yahoo was down $4.13 to $132.31.
