In May, Avebury, which was backed by the investment group Vision Capital, sold 253 pubs to Admiral Taverns for £69.75m. Giles Thorley, Punch's chief executive, said: "The deal was handed to us on a plate. They had recently sold the more eclectic properties leaving us the core. We did the deal in a week." Analysts said the deal was unlikely to preclude Punch from bidding for Spirit Group, its former sister company. Punch has declined to comment on its intentions but industry watchers believe it would be keen to buy at least part of Spirit if it opts not to pursue an initial public offering.Punch said it would fund the acquisition of Avebury, which includes £120m of debt, out of existing resources and the proceeds from a refinancing.

It is also getting £26m of net cash.The deal, which will be completed next month, expands Punch's estate to8,200 pubs.David Myers, Avebury's chief executive, will stay on to oversee the integration.Punch said the deal would boost earnings in the first full year. It is targeting £3m in savings over two years, including £2m through cheaper beer. James Ainley, an analyst at Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein, increased his pre-tax profit forecast by 4 per cent to £241.8m for 2006.. Rupert Murdoch unveiled the first step yesterday in his keenly awaited strategy to boost the internet content of his media empire, News Corporation, saying it would acquire a Los Angeles-based company offering online services ranging from video downloads to classified listings.

News Corporation will pay $580m (£330m) for Intermix Media, which hit the headlines this year when it agreed to pay $7.9m to settle charges brought by Eliot Spitzer, New York's attorney general, that it was using "spyware" technology, which delivers pop-up ads and directs customers to certain websites. Intermix has now stopped using the controversial programmes.

Intermix, formed six years ago, controls websites including MySpace , one of the fastest-growing internet sites, aimed at teenagers and people in their twenties. It allows them to talk online and download music.News Corp said the deal would almost double the number of people who look at its websites in the US to more than 45 million a month. It announced on Friday it was creating a separate internet division, Fox Interactive Media, to deliver output from its Fox TV channel online. The Intermix deal comes after Mr Murdoch warned a group of US newspaper editors in a speech in April they had been "remarkably complacent" about the negative impact of internet use on newspaper circulation and corporate advertising."I didn't do as much as I should have after the excitement of the late 1990s," Mr Murdoch said. He has called the current strategy of most newspapers, which is to regurgitate many of the same articles from print editions on their websites, "bland".He believes creating internet portals, bringing together a wide range of services, will capture younger customers who are used to gathering news and other information from the television and internet.Mr Murdoch's enthusiasm for online expansion comes despite the fact that BSkyB, the UK company he controls, lost millions on a string of hi-tech investments made at the height of the stock market's craze for internet companies whose values later imploded..
