Follow on Google News | Brian Levin from Dolphin Acquisitions Discuss Moving Forward into 2017Brian Levin, CEO of Dolphin Acquisitions discussed the challenges of 2016 and the opportunities that 2017 has to offer at the Company's recent AGM (Annual General Meeting) in New York.
By: Dolphin Acquisitions "Due to the unique nature of our business and more specifically the way that we go about things inherently we lead the way on behalf of our clients and as a company. Having offices in both the United States and Singapore gives us a very distinctive competitive edge." "We are looking to expand our Asia Pacific operations through our Singapore offices during the second quarter of 2017, as it stands it is there to facilitate our core clients which are in the region. Moving forward we intend to aggressively branch out to take advantage of the glut of Chinese IPO's and private equity deals that have been on hold for the past couple of years." He added, "This in itself has highlighted several hurdles, recruiting the correct staff being the most critical. We have taken this aspect extremely seriously and have secured numerous staff from competitors worldwide whom are currently on their respective sabbaticals. This is not just a commitment to our company and staff, it is also a commitment to our clients." "In regards to my opinion on the big plays next year it is as follows. Fueled by the low interest rates, the M&A boom of 2016 last quarter will keep on rolling forward and maintain momentum. Our information tells us that it is likely that Comcast will buy T-Mobile. T-Mobile has been by far the quickest growing U.S. wireless carrier since 2012 when John Legere took over the helm at the end of 2012. This will not be the first time that there has been a move against the company, in 2014 Sprint made a play however this was knocked back due to the fact their owner Deutsche Telekom led the antitrust regulators to deem consolidation as harmful to T-Mobiles customers." "The next conclusion that I feel is likely is that a major player will make a move on Netflix with rumors rife regarding the likes of Disney, Google and even Apple being in the mix. The reason is simple, any company that is the entertainment arena relishes the opportunity to access the Company's millions of subscribers and it growing book of successful TV shows and movies. Even though Netflix's CEO Reed hasting has stated that he does not want to sell, even with a price tag of north of $50 billion if the company does not rein in its spending then it is inevitable." "On a different facet of our arena our analysts believe that private equity will absorb Hewlett Packard Enterprise. The fact is that it has sold off the lion's share of its enterprise and software service businesses, to refocus the business on storage and converged data centers and high-end servers. This has piqued the interest of several private equity firms, and to be frank there is a precedent for this type of deal with the like of Vista Equity Partners purchasing both Ping Identity and Marketo earlier this year." "I could go on however time does not permit. All in all, as a company we are in a very solid positions and are looking forward to continuing to provide our services to a growing base of clients for years to come. Have a great Christmas and a solid start to 2017." https://www.dolphinacquisitions.com End
