21st Century Fox, NBCUniversal and The Walt Disney Company announced that they will maintain their respective ownership positions in Hulu and together provide a cash infusion of $750 million in order to propel future growth.<\/p>\n

It is the second time that Hulu has called off its sale. \u00a0In May there were several rumors about Yahoo! buying the company.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe the best path forward for Hulu is a meaningful recapitalization that will further accelerate its growth under the current ownership structure,\u201d said Chase Carey, President and Chief Operating Officer of 21st Century Fox. \u201cWe had meaningful conversations with a number of potential partners and buyers, each with impressive plans and offers to match, but with 21st Century Fox and Disney fully aligned in our collective vision and goals for the business, we decided to continue to empower the Hulu team, in this fashion, to continue the incredible momentum they\u2019ve built over the last few years.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Hulu\u00b4s evolution continues, Disney and its partners are committing resources to enable Hulu to achieve its maximum potential,\u201d said Robert A. Iger, Chairman and CEO, The Walt Disney Company.<\/p>\n

Launched in 2008, Hulu is now an aggregator of premium online television content from over 400 content partners, and has achieved more than 30 million monthly unique visitors.\u00a0Hulu launched its premium subscription service, Hulu Plus, in 2010, which has now surpassed four million subscribers after more than doubling in 2012. Hulu achieved revenues of $690 million that same year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
