There must be something about the circumstances that you cant share.
I thought we were going to be aligned and get a deal put together...and >without going into great detail...it would >seem your parent doesn't want to >transact.
I feel like there is an education >opportunity with your parent in that if >they put the gateway up for sale with >the merchant accounts...it's going to >get at least 40x...maybe 50x.
That's a hell of a good return on an \$8mm of investment.
If they pull the gateway and go to market without the merchant accounts...they should expect 5-7x.
That's \$150-\$250 million swing.
Your parent should spend a day with me and then tell their kids how they want them to proceed.
I have to pull a team off a competing initiative that I know will generate >revenue...
In order to stay committed to this. Is this something you feel you can get your parent to do? Spend a few hours with me.
Unknown: (Added by me to label for clarity of communication. This label does not appear.)
