That is the multi-million dollar question. How do you put a price on a company that has laid the roadwork for a billion dollar company, but has not crossed the finish line?
It will have to be a price that respects the value of what has been done to get this far. A number that allows Mr. Rooney to walk away with his chin held high.
I think 11 cents a share for the bulk of his shares would do it. Allow him to keep 20% of his current position so that he can also benefit from the eventual share price 5 years from now.
Those are my thoughts on the matter. I'm a long regardless.
