Petty to re-sign Labonte, announce merger deal
2008-06-10 15:06:00 Petty Enterprises on Wednesday will announce the re-signing of driver Bobby Labonte and that a Massachusetts-based private equity firm has purchased controlling interest in the organization during a press conference at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, sources have told NASCAR.COM. Labonte Labonte, 44, has been the driver of the team’s flagship No. 43 car since 2006. The Petty team also needs a sponsor for Labonte’s vehicle, given that current backer General Mills is leaving to sponsor a fourth Sprint Cup entry at Richard Childress Racing for next season. It was unclear whether a sponsor announcement is part of Wednesday’s program. That may hinge on the forthcoming agreement with Boston Ventures, a private equity firm that has been negotiating to buy part of the Petty organization. In 2003 NASCAR team owner Richard Childress used a similar agreement with another equity firm, New York-based Chartwell Investments, to raise capital that helped him turn his team...

2008-04-15 06:35:00 On March 17 I purchased more shares of Allscripts (MDRX).Little did I know, the next day they would announce a merger with Misys, a british company that offers a similar service. If the merger goes through Allscripts will triple the number of physicians that use them (150,000 physicians or 1/3 of all U.S. physicians). As a result of the deal Allscripts shareholders will retain their shares and receive a special cash dividend (part of the $330 million that Misys is paying for a 54.5% stake in the company). You can read the SEC paperwork here and a TIME article here. I’m excited about this opportunity for Allscripts to grow. I’m considering purchasing more shares now as I feel that they are still undervalued.
