Diller Bids $48.30 Per Share for MGM. The Board Thinks He's Lowballing.
Barry Diller's People Inc. is offering $12.4 billion for the 74% of MGM Resorts it doesn't already own, valuing the entire company at roughly $18 billion including debt. The per-share price looks generous until you decompose what MGM actually owns and what the buyer is really pricing in.
