Now talk is circulating that some kind of deal has been reached, although it is not known if that is a purchase or some arrangement that would bring them together more closely in another fashion. Meanwhile, an explanation has also surfaced about the recent departure of marketing VP Dan Druker. The explanation is that Druker had reached the point that his options had vested and that he is a startup guy who is on to another venture, although the name of the new employer has not been reflected in his Linkedin page. The thought occurred to me that these things could be related. Intacct has been on an IPO path, but if someone could offer the company enough money to satisfy investors and management it is hard to believe that such an offer would not be accepted. In any case, it would be time for a start-up guy to leave.
