You're assuming alot of things when you say it's 1/3 the value of what they actually got. You're assuming an IPO wouldn't tank (as many did this past year) after going out...and there are several items that I could point to...but it's all speculation at this point.

Fact is, at the time the deal was done, it was the right thing to do. In fact, they likely have wound up with more value in the end.
