 |  Facebook Is Buying WhatsApp for $16B Who decided this was worth $16 billion? Oh wait, I guess Facebook just did. Facebook today announced that it has reached a definitive agreement to acquire WhatsApp, a rapidly growing cross-platform mobile messaging company, for a total of approximately $16 billion, including $4 billion in cash and approximately $12 billion worth of Facebook shares. The agreement also provides for an additional $3 billion in restricted stock units to be granted to WhatsApp's founders and employees that will vest over four years subsequent to closing. http://www.hardocp.com/news/2014/02/...tsapp_for_16b/ |
