Member Avatar TMFDeej (99.21) Submitted: 7/30/2010 4:58:14 PM : Outperform Start Price: $9.50 ALOY Score: -17.82

Recently agreed to be bought out by ZelnickMedia for $9.80/share in cash. As a straight Merger Arb play, that represents a 3.26% gain from this level in what I expect to be a fairly flat market...not bad.

However, there might be something more than that going on here. Whitney Tilson and Glenn Tongue's hedge fund T2 Partners recently filed an activist 13D after acquiring 669,946 shares of the company, 5.2%, mostly in the $9.50/share range.

It's possible that T2 is just playing the merger arb game here, but there might be more than that going on. It sounds as though many of Alloy's shareholders feel as though the buyout offer that management accepted is way too low. Several law firms, including Goldfarb Branham and Faruqi & Faruqi, have even filed suit against Alloy on behalf of shareholders in an attempt to block the deal.

I have a feeling that there's more upside left in this one, but I'm going to have to do some more investigating first. No time for that now...it's almost Happy Hour on a Friday. Is anyone out there familiar with this situation?

A great stock that does ad marketing to people aged 14-24. It is a niche market and they are one of the big dogs in the market. Huge potential to dominate this market, especially since 200 Fortune 500 companies are doing business with them.
