Vivendi hasn’t reopened Lagardère Canal+ talks
French telco Vivendi has not reopened talks to buy rival Lagardère’s 20 per cent stake in pay-TV unit Canal Plus, Vivendi chief Jean-Bernard Levy has told French newspaper Le Figaro.
Vivendi, which owns 80 per cent of Canal Plus, failed in a previous attempt to buy the stake from Lagardère, which opted instead for a stock-market listing. The IPO has been delayed since the Japan earthquake disaster hit markets in March.
“We have not reopened negotiations with Lagardère,” Levy told Le Figaro.
Vivendi’s CEO is moving to take full control of some units in a bid to reduce the group’s conglomerate share-price discount. The recent acquisition of Vodafone’s stake in telecoms brand SFR will give Vivendi €2 billion in extra profits over four years.
“With 100 per cent of SFR, we have better access to its cash, and moreover a strong increase in Vivendi’s profit,” he said

EchoStar: ‘Win some, lose some’
By Chris Forrester
EchoStar and sister company Dish Network on April 20 lost the latest round of its long-running litigation with DVR-technology company TiVo. The US Court of Appeals said that EchoStar continued to infringe TiVo’s patents, and found the company in contempt. TiVo’s stock price rocketed by more than 32 per cent, and most analysts agree that the end of the legal battle – which started in 2004 – could now be in sight.
The consensus is that EchoStar’s Dish Network will end up paying damages to TiVo and licensing their technology. “Faced with an imminent shut-down of millions of DVRs, we believe Dish will be faced with a gun-to-the-head settlement,” said Bernstein Research analyst Craig Moffett in a research note. Moffett suggested that shutting down and replacing older EchoStar set-top boxes could cost the broadcaster $3 billion.

DISH seeks review on latest TiVo decision
Published: 11.30 Europe/London, April 21, 2011
DISH Network says it will seek a review of a US Appeal Court decision ordering it to disable part of the functionality on its DVR products. The appeal court upheld a ruling against former parent EchoStar that it had infringed patents held by digital recording specialist TiVo.
In a statement DISH said its customers would not be immediately impacted by the developments in the eight-year old legal battle. The company is seeking a stay of execution ahead of its review of the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals’ 7-5 split decision.
