<div dir="ltr">Yes, it happened. Vocus buys M2.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In a script for script deal... the Vocus name survived the merger - M2 name disappeared.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The new CEO of Vocus will be Geoff Horth</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>James Spenceley remains as an Executive Director, but active daily in the business doing what he does best, running the telco side.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Notes:</div>
<div>- Combined Revenue of $1.8bn</div>
<div>- Market Cap $3bn</div>
<div>- Both boards support merger</div>
<div>- David Spence to chair combined group</div>
<div>- 4000 combined staff</div>
<div>- ASX Announcements - <a href="http://www.asx.com.au/asx/research/company.do#!/VOC">http://www.asx.com.au/asx/research/company.do#!/VOC</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, this is battle of the titans and likely to upset Teoh who would eventually come after M2... or may try to hit the combined group, but he is busy off trying to buy Vodafone at the moment.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Great to see James still involved and doing what he does best without the headache of managing that many staff... </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Exciting days.</div>
