A Needham analyst said today that an Apple purchase of Disney would result in a juggernaut unlike anything ever seen before.
Needham analyst recommends that Apple purchase Disney in a deal that could be worth $200 billion
, Martin says that Apple and Disney"are worth more together than separately." She cites the 1.25 billion"unique consumers" that use Apple's products and services, and the 570 million consumers that Disney connects with every year.She also writes that the strengths of each company complement the other. Apple, she notes, is skilled at distributing content to its"unique and wealthy users" through the 2 billion iPhone and iPad units that Apple customers own.
. Apple's market capitalization is $2.6 trillion while Disney's market value is $178 billion. Throw in a 25% premium and Apple will pay $222 billion to buy Disney. Financially, it is doable but Apple might have to take on some additional debt to make this purchase. There are some connections between Apple and Disney. The late Steve Jobs was not only a member of the Disney board, he also was Disney's largest stockholder at one time. Jobs was one of Pixar's three founders and was CEO of the computer animation studio when it was sold to Disney in 2006 for $7.4 billion in an all-stock deal.
