eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) has turned down a proposed $56 billion takeover offer from GameStop (NYSE:GME), citing concerns over the credibility and financing structure of the proposed transaction. The bid would have seen GameStop — a company valued at roughly one-quarter of eBay’s size — attempt one of the most ambitious acquisitions in the retail and e-commerce sector in recent years.

GameStop, valued at about $12 billion, proposed to acquire a corporation nearly four times its size in a half-cash, half-stock deal valued at $125 each eBay share. The offer was neither credible nor attractive, eBay Chairman Paul Pressler said, arguing the company's present management team can keep it on the path of sustainable growth. The big question for investors is whether GameStop can actually finance the transaction without taking on a tonne of debt or diluting shareholders.
