FAQs for Leadership Council

Deal Announcement: April 29, 2016

Integration Planning Process

What does the integration planning process look like?

 

    Integration is the process of combining two companies into one organization and involves bringing together elements such as systems, processes, policies, tools, resources, people and culture.

 

    Integration planning spans the period between the announcement of the deal and when the deal is completed.

 

    Actual integration activities begin once the transaction is completed and we are one company.

Who is on the integration team? Who will be making decisions?

 

    The integration team will include leaders from both Rovi and TiVo representing their respective businesses and functions.

 

    We will announce key integration team members and details in the coming weeks. The integration team will work on a defined set of activities with the goal of understanding how we’ll work together effectively as one organization.

 

    To guide combined efforts, the team will have a defined governance process that will help drive fact-based decision making by appointed team leads.

How soon can Rovi employees interact with TiVo employees?

 

    Until the deal is completed, discussions with TiVo team members will be directed through the Integration Planning team.

 

    No customer proposals or pricing information can be shared with TiVo until the transaction closes.

 

    We will continue to share updates and will communicate when the deal closes.

Teams and Organizational Structure

Do you anticipate layoffs as a result of this acquisition?    

 

    We anticipate there will be some overlap in roles so there will be some reductions.

 

    As part of the integration planning process, this is one area that the teams will be reviewing. More broadly, the teams will look at things like systems and tools to see where we might consolidate.

 

    We still need to work through the process so we don’t have specifics.

 

    Our overall goal is to accelerate solutions we offer customers so that will be a consideration as we evaluate resourcing needs to maximize capabilities for various team.

 

    As always, we’ll continue to review all aspects of our business on an ongoing basis to ensure that what we’re doing is consistent with our goals.

 

    Our goal is to share updates with you as soon as possible.

Brand

What is the rationale for taking the TiVo name?

 

    Tivo and the TiVo logo are widely recognized. As an example, the silhouette shape of the TiVo logo alone is recognized by over 90% of respondents who see it.

 

    The name change reflects the company’s broader IP and Product portfolio and the combined expertise in driving the innovations of today and tomorrow in entertainment technology.

 

    The new name – TiVo – allows us to build on a rich history, name recognition and an exciting future.

When will the Rovi name change? Will Rovi be a brand we retain for any marketing or products?

 

    As part of the integration planning process, we’ll review our overall branding and marketing approach and will implement changes across the new company’s combined product and services in a planned fashion. Exact timing is to be determined.

 

    During that time, the integration team will work through a phased approach for rolling out the TiVo brand.

TiVo’s set-top boxes have a strong group of loyal fans and supporters. What does the acquisition mean to them? Will Rovi become a consumer-facing company?

 

    We know that TiVo has a dedicated base of loyal customers and a highly recognized brand.

 

    We are committed for the foreseeable future to making sure they continue receiving core services with as little disruption as possible.

 

    Rovi and TiVo have come together to define the next generation of entertainment discovery.

Locations

Will TiVo employees move to Rovi offices? Or vice versa?

 

    For now, TiVo employees will remain in their current workspaces in San Jose and their regional sales offices

 

    As a company, we continually review our real estate needs and leases to ensure we are being efficient in our operations while meeting the needs of our business.

Can Rovi employees move to TiVo offices – especially if it helps with the commute?

 

    We can certainly understand the desire for people with longer commutes to work in a closer location.

 

    We’ll be looking at this as part of the integration planning process, reviewing leases, heat maps and space limitations to ensure we’re being productive.

 

    Until the transaction closes, it’s business as usual as both companies are separate.

 

    Our general philosophy is to keep teams together.
