New Yelp Has Earned Its Extra Stars

Buying growth is rarely a cheap concept, especially for small tech companies that lack the pocketbooks of their much larger peers. Yelp knows this well. Founded 19 years ago as a pioneer in the field of online reviews for local businesses, Yelp has established an Internet advertising business now generating more than $1.2 billion a year in revenue. That is a 10-fold increase from when the company went public in 2012—and about what Google generates in ad revenue every two days. Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Discovery combining with Paramount Global is the latest pitch. The Wall Street Journal and other media outlets reported late Wednesday that Warner Chief Executive David Zaslav met with Paramount Chief Bob Bakish earlier this week to discuss a possible deal. No formal talks are yet under way, and the news comes just a couple of weeks after reports that Paramount’s controlling shareholder, Shari Redstone, was talking about a potential deal with an investor group led by Skydance Media. Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
