Selling Motorola, Google "Loss" 9 Billion Dollars ?

Motorola by Google's sales figures look much smaller than when the first purchase. The selling price of U.S. $ 2.91 billion versus the purchase price of 12.5 billion U.S. dollars. That is, there is a difference of about 9.59 billion U.S. dollars. Did Google nombok for it?

Apparently, Google arguably is not harmed by the transaction.

After buying Motorola, Google sells a set-top division of the company was worth 2.05 billion U.S. dollars to Arris Group. Then, I re- gained nearly 3 billion dollars from Lenovo.

Google itself still holds around 17,000 patents acquired from Motorola. You could say the patents are worth 7 billion dollars after Google's purchase of Motorola is reduced by the introduction of two transactions as mentioned above.

This figure, according to Dan Rowinski on Read Write Web, fairly reasonable considering the Rockstar group buy 4,000 patents from Nortel for $ 4.5 billion dollars.

" We 've got what they want from Motorola, namely patents, a team of engineers, and information about the market / the paper, " said mobile analyst Jack Gold of J Gold & Associates, in an e - mail to Read Write Web.

Gold added that Motorola actually never had a strategic value for Google that does not need to plunge as handset manufacturers. The acquisition of Motorola also put Google in a position contrary to the OEM partners.

Moto Moto X and G sold at a very low price tag for the class because I was not looking for profit, but Android users by offering attractive handsets as cheap as possible. Google's revenue is obtained when the Android users wear its services.

By selling Motorola, Google no longer in conflict with the partner. " They're out of business that does not generate a profit and can concentrate without having to worry about a hardware manufacturer, " said Gold.
