The management of Yahoo continues to negotiate the sale of its company's assets. Now the negotiations are still at an early stage; nevertheless, some moments of the transaction have become clear. Most likely, the core of the company will remain untouched, and only non-core assets will be sold. True, there remains a small chance that Yahoo will be sold all without a trace. At least some potential buyers show a great interest in acquiring 100% of the corporation’s assets.
According to the Financial Times, some Yahoo shareholders are extremely dissatisfied with the behavior of the board of directors, and oppose the sale of the company. However, there are also such shareholders (and most of them) who believe that the sale of the entire company or its part is the best way out of this situation.

As previously reported, the most likely buyers are such groups as the Alibaba Group and Softbank. The desire to participate in the purchase of Yahoo's assets is also shown by Microsoft with Google, but the most active participants in the potential transaction are Alibaba Group and Softbank. As for the software giant and the Corporation of Good, these two corporations are no longer actively involved in the negotiations than before.
In addition, some other companies work with these major players, mainly investment funds, which provide part of the funds for the purchase of Yahoo assets.
In any case, the current management of the company will remain "at the helm." This also applies to the founder and former CEO of Yahoo, Jerry Yang.
