AppLovin CEO Adam Foroughi has underscored their robust bid for TikTok, presenting it as a partnership allowing the Chinese-run app to utilize AppLovin's advanced advertising strategies. This initiative aims to significantly enhance TikTok's monetization potential. The proposal comes amidst regulatory pressures on TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, to divest its U.S. operations by June. AppLovin's approach, which suggests a merger allowing U.S. market access, positions them against a competitive landscape of other potential buyers, while also noting the need for Chinese government approval.
Foroughi said the company is proposing a merger between AppLovin and the entire global business of TikTok, characterizing the deal as a 'partnership'.
If you pair our algorithm with the TikTok audience, the expansion on that platform for dollars spent will be through the roof.
The President's a great dealmaker we're proposing, essentially an enhancement to the deal that they've been working on, but a bigger version of all the deals contemplated.
AppLovin's interest in purchasing TikTok in 'all markets outside of China' is 'preliminary,' according to an April 3 SEC filing.
