Coty should be taken quite seriously from Avon and I think that if they raise the price to the high 20’s it’s possible a deal can get done.  They bring stronger management and an excellent track record in marketing and acquisitions.  I also wouldn’t be surprised to see another company enter the fray as Avon is certainly undervalued even at these prices.
