Summary
Hydrasight believes that the acquisition of BEA's customer base is the primary motive behind Oracle's January 2008 definitive agreement to purchase BEA. We expect that Oracle will (relatively) quickly integrate the BEA organisation (e.g., rationalising the sales, marketing, administration, support, and some development functions). As such, the BEA organisation is not expected to create major business integration challenges for Oracle. Nonetheless, and despite finally putting the question of BEA's future to rest, we believe that the acquisition will cause some challenges and confusion for existing clients as Oracle tries to integrate BEA's products into its portfolio.
