Term Sheet — Tuesday, July 12

• WeWork To Own: There have long been rumors that WeWork co-founder and CEO Adam Neumann has personal stakes in some of his company's New York buildings, so yesterday I asked him about it. Neumann responded that he has sold off most of those positions to other building owners (his positions were always small), and currently has just two remaining. If he is unable to divest them before WeWork chooses to go public, Neumann says the arrangements would all be disclosed in SEC filings.

• Fight time: Yesterday we discussed the private equity-backed deal to buy mixed martial arts league UFC, for around $4 billion. Two things I neglected to mention, in terms of why the buyers were so interested: (1) It is the only U.S. pro sports league in which men's and women's events are on equal footing in terms of both timing and promotion. (2) UFC fights only go 25 minutes max (15 if it's not a title fight), and most are far shorter. Moreover, these are broken up into mobile-digestible 5-minute rounds. When catering to millennials, consider this the anti-baseball.

• That's So Mavens: I asked TPG's David Trujillo on stage about his firm's continuing interest in buying Yahoo, which of course he didn't answer. That said, my understanding is that the final three suitors (TPG, Dan Gilbert and Verizon) are in the midst of preparing for a final round of bidding.

• Comeback: Yesterday on stage I asked Dropbox CEO Drew Houston about a comment from rival Aaron Levie (of Box), who once said: "Any time you ever want to see what Dropbox will do next, look for what we did 3-5 years ago."

So what, I asked, has Dropbox done before Box?

"How about generating cash?" asked Houston, whose company reports being cash-flow positive in Q1 2016.

• Transport talk: Lyft president John Zimmer confirmed on stage that his ride-hailing company is losing $50 million per month, but said he prefers to view it as "investing" $50 million per month. He also suggested that his company would consider expanding internationally (despite its global partnership with Didi, etc.) and declined to comment on reports that Lyft has hired investment bank Qatalyst to possibly find a buyer.

Speaking of no comments on Lyft, I asked General Motors president Dan Ammann if the automaker had a right of first refusal on a Lyft sale, given its $500 million investment last year. Suffice to say, he didn't answer.

• Today from Aspen: In addition to the VC breakfast, my roles today are to interview Dave Brandon, CEO of Toys R Us and former CEO of Domino's, and then moderate a session on the intersection of sports and technology with Kevin Tsujihara (CEO of Warner Brothers), Maverick Carter (CEO of SpringHill) and Draymond Green (yes, we'll talk about it).

We've also got other great mainstage interviews, with such folks as Intel CEO Brian Krzanich, Magic Leap's Rony Abovitz and Brian Wallace, Girls Who Code CEO Reshma Saujani, Box CEO Aaron Levie with GE vice chair Beth Comstock, Amazon Alexa head David Limp, Airbnb's Brian Chesky and Belinda Johnson and uber-investor Yuri Milner. Catch the livestream by going here.
