Breaking: Apollo Global, Sixth Street Weren’t Part Of Financing Twitter Deal, Elon Musk Agrees
After Tesla CEO Elon Musk agreed to proceed with the $44 billion buyout of Twitter at $54.20 per share, some noises surrounding third-party equity investors pulling out of the deal raised concerns among investors. In fact, Apollo Global Management and Sixth Street Partners were not part of either third-party equity financing in May or debt financing.
Apollo Global, Sixth Street Non-Interest Is Irrelevant In Twitter Deal
The drama surrounding Apollo Global Management and Sixth Street Partners backing out of financing Elon Musk’s bid for the $44 billion buyout of Twitter raised investor concerns over the deal. However, Elon Musk has agreed that both firms weren’t part of either third-party equity financing in May or debt financing.
Gary Black, the managing partner at investment advisor The Future Fund LLC, in a tweet on October 6 claims the non-interest of Apollo Global Management and Sixth Street Partners in financing the Twitter deal is irrelevant. He asserts both firms weren’t part of the $7.1 billion in third-party equity financing in May. Also, Apollo Global and Sixth Street weren’t part of Elon Musk’s debt financing.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk replied “Correct” to the tweets claiming the irrelevance of Apollo Global and Sixth Street in the Twitter buyout deal.
Furthermore, many believe Elon Musk’s agreeing with the Twitter acquisition deal could change the outcome of future elections.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk and Twitter have agreed to postpone the deposition scheduled for Thursday as both parties prepare to end their litigation and close Musk’s $44 billion Twitter buyout.
