Robertson Stevens finds SEEK unattractive.
December 18, 1999

We continue to find the Infoseek stock unattractive for public
shareholders. The stock is trading near the price of $50, where Disney
can exercise warrants to own 50.1% of Infoseek. If it were to make a
bid for the rest, we doubt it would face any competition, suggesting no need to pay much of a premium. Thus, if GO works, it seems unlikely to us that public shareholders will see much stock upside. In the
meantime, Infoseek owes Disney $139 million as part of Disney's purchase of a 43% stake in Infoseek.
