What is a Spin-Off? Meaning.
A Spin-Off is a form of corporate
divestiture, whereby a subsidiary,
division or strategic business
unit becomes an independent company. Normally, shares in the new organizational
entity are distributed in the form of a special
stock dividend to the shareholders
of the parent company on a pro rata basis. However see
Leveraged Buy-Out.
A frequent reason for considering a Spin-Off is that a product
developed by the R&D department that does not fit in the
Core Competence of the corporation,
or to streamline the parent organization. A Spin-Off can also be advantageous
from a strategic point of view in that two new companies can each focus
on their core business. Also, from a financial point of view, the two
firms may be worth more than the sum of them.
