Offer by Softbank

I would like to point out some factual errors on the company-related page for ARM Holdings, concerning "Offer by Softbank."

Please note that I am an employee of ARM Holdings, and have responsibilities to monitor company-related articles online for accurate information.

I appeal to the editor to make the following changes, which are factually correct and will be helpful. Some of the citations previously published on the company-related page are incorrect in their information.

1) EDIT REQUESTED for: "Japanese IT company Softbank, owned by Masayoshi Son, made an agreed offer for ARM on 18 July 2016 at a price of £23.4 billion."

Correction needed: £24.3 billion, not 23.4 Citations: https://next.ft.com/content/235b1af4-4c7f-11e6-8172-e39ecd3b86fc http://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/arm-agrees-24-3bn-takeover-by-japans-softbank-lhwmfrbnl


2) REMOVAL REQUESTED OF: "Brexit resulted in a fall in the value of the pound, creating an opportunity for Softbank to acquire ARM at a reliatvely low price in Japanese Yen."

Why: The statement that ARM is cheaper in Yen after Brexit is incorrect. The opposite is true.

Citation for its removal: http://bigstory.ap.org/article/1af06a9c746341169af8209e0291f657/japans-softbank-acquire-arm-uk-31-billion

3) REMOVAL REQUESTED OF: ZDNET Citation http://www.zdnet.com/article/softbank-to-acquire-arm-holdings-for-23-4bn-report/]ZDNet's newes about acquisition

Why: The citation is factually incorrect, as should it not be used as reference for information.

Any questions, please contact me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jfryer2000 (talk • contribs) 17:57, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
