Notes de l'éditeur
- On a cold November day, little baby Groupon was born in Chicago, Il to the proud parents of thepoint.com. The points didn’t have much. They were in the business of getting people to collaborate on special projects and raise money for community service initiatives. It was a small family, but when they had Groupon, they had no idea what it would grow up to become.
- By the time Groupon was 1 years old, it had already sold over $14,000,000 (insert yippee) worth of daily deals in the restaurant, entertainment and service industry. They found their niche as the first website to feature daily deal on the best stuff to do, see, eat in major cities.
- Let’s talk about the New Kids on the Block (start song). No…not them, the other New Kids on The Block! Soon after Groupon started seeing a little success, other kids started showing up “on the playground.” Websites such as Scoutmob.com, livingsocial.com, and even social networking tycoon Facebook tried to get a piece of Groupon’s market. All to no avail. According to a Reuters report, Although livingsocial is now the second largest daily deal website with over 12 million subscribers, they still trail behind Groupon falling short by a whopping 100 million subscribers. When it comes to daily deals, the New Kids on the Block doesn’t have anything on Groupon!
- As Groupon got older, they made more money. If they continued at the pace they were growing, they could become a multi-million dollar business in just a few short months (insert Money song Ojays). So they began to grow into new markets, acquiring major cities every month, until the entire United States was saturated with Groupon deals. This had never been done before, so they decided to patent their idea in hopes to create barriers to entry in hopes of protecting their business model. Money by Ojays inserted

- When Groupon decided to go public –open the books- SEC uncovered some weird accounting practices Groupon's S-1 filing came under scrutiny from the Securities and Exchange commission for an unusual accounting metric called "Adjusted Consolidated Segment Operating Income," which calculates revenue without first debiting expenses like marketing and advertising.Groupon has a rocky history with its book keeping. An SEC review of Groupon's accounting procedures forced the daily deals provider to revise its IPO filing papers last year after the company reported that it generated $713.4 million in revenue in 2010, while the SEC said that the figure should be $312.9 million.

- Groupon has a rocky history with its book keeping. An SEC review of Groupon's accounting procedures forced the daily deals provider to revise its IPO filing papers last year after the company reported that it generated $713.4 million in revenue in 2010, while the SEC said that the figure should be $312.9 million. Groupon filed for its Initial Public Offering in February 2011. Before the company went public, they restated their revenue from $713 mil to $312 mil which should’ve been a red flag to investors that there was a weakness in their internal accounting controls. The IPO was approved anyway, and the company went public officially in November of 2011, only 3 years after it started.
