EBay rejects GameStop’s $56 billion takeover bid, calling it ‘neither credible nor attractive’


EBay on Tuesday rejected GameStop’s $56 billion takeover proposal, calling the unsolicited bid “neither credible nor attractive.”

GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen last week unveiled an audacious bid for eBay, offering to acquire the online marketplace for $125 per share in a cash-and-stock deal. EBay is much larger than the video game retailer, with a market cap of just over $48 billion, while GameStop’s is roughly $10.3 billion.
