Oracle is Watch Passenger 69 XXXjoining the race to acquire TikTok's U.S. operations, the Financial Timesand Bloomberg reported Monday.
It's a bit of an odd fit, given Oracle is primarily a B2B company that sells database software, and TikTok is a cheery video app aimed at the younger generation. However, Oracle certainly has the financial clout to pull it off; the company had more than $37 billion in cash and cash equivalents at the end of fiscal Q4 in 2020.
TikTok's parent company ByteDance hasn't advertised a price for the social app, but Bloomberg says analysts have placed it somewhere between $20 and $50 billion.
According to the reports, Oracle has approached VC firm Sequoia Capital for partnership in a bid to purchase TikTok's operations in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Whoever ends up being the best bidder will have their work cut out for them; separating TikTok's U.S. business with the rest of the company will likely be a complex and expensive process.
