Sometimes the value of purchasing the ASSETS of a
company, both hard assets and soft assets like customer
lists, can be much higher than purchasing the company.

A case in point - a few years ago we purchased the
ASSETS of a regional paging company.  We got their
transmitters, paging terminal, customer base, NKX,
basically everything we needed to keep operations including licenses.

If we purchased the company - we would have gotten
their debts also - and as they were almost in bankruptcy,
that would not have been acceptable.

Subject: [WISPA] Purchasing wireless part of a company


I don't want to get into how much because that has been debated time and time again. However, should one expect to pay less if purchasing the wireless operations of an existing company doing many services (Internet and not) than if they purchased the whole company?
