AOL, the onetime darling of the late 1990s Internet boom, is considering going private, according to the New York Post.
Early discussions have focused on finding a price that might convince AOL’s management to consider investing in taking the company private, the story notes.
As previously reported, AOL has hired a top M&A team, although the company has denied it is contemplating a merger.
The appeal of going private is that the company would be allowed to restructure without shareholder scrutiny, the story says.
