雅虎CEO梅爾上任一周年
過去這一年，雅虎確實變得很不一樣，首先從最具體的股價來看，根據《金融時報》報導，雅虎股價已經大幅成長超過70％。另一個最明顯的改變是，持續購併有潛力的新創事業。《財星》雜誌指出，梅爾接任執行長至今，已經購併了16家創業公司，其中包括今年5月以11億美元的價格收購Tumblr。被購併的16家創業公司都與雅虎4大產品類別有關：核心業務（內容、應用程式、搜尋）、社群、遊戲、影音（視訊聊天與會議）。當然，更重要的是，透過購併，直接取得雅虎極缺的行動服務人才。
梅爾也確實花費心思改變企業文化，讓雅虎有了一番新氣象，吸引老鳥回巢。今年第一季新雇用的員工當中，有14％是舊員工回流。
然而，除了股價之外，梅爾上任一年並未對雅虎的財務表現有顯著的幫助。而股價上漲的最主要原因其實是阿里巴巴以及雅虎日本公司（雅虎握有這兩家公司的股權）的快速成長。
至 於雅虎本業的經營，並不樂觀。薩司奎哈納（Susquehanna）證券公司分析師布萊恩．挪威克（Brian Nowak）預估，2013年雅虎的營收成長將不到1％，原因即在於雅虎多項核心業務持續呈現衰退，包括最大營收來源的展示型廣告業務，以及主題頻道市佔 率下滑（包括運動、新聞、金融、娛樂）。此外，使用人口老化，網站成長有80％來自45歲以上的網友。上述的問題，都有待梅爾一一解決。（吳凱琳編譯）
