Most of Yahoo’s $36.4 billion market value is derived from its 15% stake in Chinese online commerce company Alibaba Group Holdings and its 35.5% stake in joint venture Yahoo Japan. These are not included in Yahoo’s deal with Verizon.
Investors will be hoping for a quick sale of these stakes, but Yahoo has been looking for years without success for a way to make money from the investments without incurring a huge tax bill. Yahoo declined to comment on potential scenarios on Monday.
