Top Upcoming Spinoffs to Watch in 2024 and Beyond

The list of upcoming spinoffs provides investors with valuable information about companies that are planning to spin off business units in the near future. By keeping track of these upcoming spinoffs, investors can identify potential investment opportunities. The list of upcoming spinoffs typically includes information about the planned spinoff, such as the business unit being spun off, the expected timing of the spin off, and the ownership structure of the new entity.

Investors can use this information to evaluate the potential investment opportunity and determine if it fits their investment objectives and risk profile. It's important to note that not all spinoffs are created equal, and careful due diligence is required before making any investment decisions, especially since some parent load their spinoffs with a lot of debt or undesirable assets. The list of upcoming spinoffs can serve as a starting point for investors looking for potential investment opportunities in the stock market.

Land Holdings03/14/2024N/ALennar CorporationLENSpinoff
Lennar Corporation, spinoff details:

 

Lennar (LEN) one of the biggest US homebuilders, says it is considering a $4 billion spinoff of land it holds.
The proposal would be a way to have a consistent source of funding as the company moves to a “land light” construction model, Executive Chairman Stuart Miller said on a call with analysts. It also would help Lennar shift from relying on private equity to fund lot production.
The transaction would represent more than 85% of Lennar’s current land pipeline, which totals about $4.7 billion, according to the builder’s quarterly earnings statement. By having a separate company own the land, Lennar could purchase lots as they’re needed.
“Such a transaction would distribute capital to shareholders, it would reduce inventory on Lennar’s books, and it would provide permanent, dependable capital for future land options,” Miller said.

Western Digital, spinoff details:

Western Digital (WDC) would spin off its flash business and merge it with Kioxia, creating a publicly traded company in the US, the people said

Previously on May 2022, Elliott Investment Management L.P. which manages funds that have an approximately $1 billion investment in Western Digital Corporation (WDC) sent a letter to the Board of Directors of Western Digital calling the Board to conduct a full strategic review of the value that could be created by separating its two vastly different businesses, hard disk drives and NAND flash memory.

By executing on a separation, Elliott believes Western Digital's stock price could reach $100+ per share by the end of 2023, representing uniquely attractive upside of approximately 100%.

Update(s):

May 15, 2023: Reuters reported, Kioxia Holdings Corp and Western Digital Corp are speeding up merger talks and nailing down a deal structure.

Japan's Kioxia and U.S. chipmaker Western Digital have been hit hard by plunging market demand and oversupply. Combining their flash memory businesses could boost competitiveness against rivals like South Korea's Samsung Electronics.

The planned merger is also likely to draw anti-trust scrutiny in several countries, including the United States and China.

The proposed merger is expected to consist of a new entity which is 43% owned by Kioxia and 37% owned by Western Digital.

South Korea's SK Hynix (000660.KS), itself a major memory chip maker and rival to both companies said it did not back the deal, citing the potential impact on the value of its investment in Kioxia.

The proposal would be a way to have a consistent source of funding as the company moves to a “land light” construction model, Executive Chairman Stuart Miller said on a call with analysts. It also would help Lennar shift from relying on private equity to fund lot production.
The transaction would represent more than 85% of Lennar’s current land pipeline, which totals about $4.7 billion, according to the builder’s quarterly earnings statement. By having a separate company own the land, Lennar could purchase lots as they’re needed.
“Such a transaction would distribute capital to shareholders, it would reduce inventory on Lennar’s books, and it would provide permanent, dependable capital for future land options,” Miller said.

Types of Spin-offs

A. Spin-offs

Corporate spinoffs are the most common type of spin off and involve a parent company spinning off a subsidiary or business unit as a separate entity. The new entity operates independently of the parent company and may have its own management team and board of directors. The parent company typically distributes the shares of the new company to its shareholders and may retain a portion of ownership in the new entity.

B. Equity Carve-outs

Equity carve-outs involve a parent company selling a portion of its ownership in a subsidiary or business unit to the public through an IPO while retaining a controlling stake in the company. This type of spinoff allows the parent company to raise capital and unlock the value of the subsidiary or business unit while maintaining control over the operations.

C. Split-offs

Split-offs are a type of spinoff where the parent company distributes shares of the new entity to its shareholders in exchange for a portion of their shares in the parent company. In contrast to corporate spinoffs, split-offs involve a simultaneous exchange of shares, which can provide tax benefits for both the parent company and its shareholders.

D. Tracking Stocks

Tracking stocks are a type of spinoff that allow the parent company to create a separate stock for a particular business unit without creating a separate entity. This type of spinoff is rare and allows investors to buy into a particular business unit without having to invest in the parent company as a whole. Tracking stocks do not represent ownership in a separate legal entity, but rather a portion of the parent company's business.

R. Reverse Morris Trust Transactions

This is a tax efficient type of spinoff where a parent company spins off a subsidiary and at the same time merges it with another company. When the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) wanted to separate its generic drugs business called Upjohn, it used a Reverse Morris Trust transaction by merging Upjohn with the publicly traded generic drugs company Mylan (the maker of EpiPen) in 2020. The combined company was called Viatris (VTRS).

Investing in Spin Off Companies

A. Reasons to invest in spin off companies

Investing in spin off companies can provide several benefits, including:

  • Focused business strategy: Spin off companies are typically more focused on their core business, which can lead to improved financial performance and growth potential.
  • Undervalued assets: Spin off companies may be undervalued by the market, providing investors with the opportunity to buy in at a lower price and benefit from potential upside.
  • Diversification: Investing in spin off companies can provide diversification benefits, as the new entity may operate in a different industry or market than the parent company.
  • Catalyst for change: Spin off companies may undergo significant changes after the spin off, such as mergers, acquisitions, or other strategic initiatives, which can create value for investors.

B. Risks of investing in spin off companies

Investing in spin off companies also comes with risks, including:

  • Limited information: Spin off companies may not have a long track record or may be less transparent than established companies, which can make it difficult to evaluate the investment opportunity.
  • Market uncertainty: The market may not fully understand the value or potential of the new entity, which can lead to increased volatility and risk.
  • Increased competition: Spin off companies may face increased competition from established players or other spin off companies, which can impact their financial performance.

C. Tips for investing in spin off companies

When investing in spin off companies, it's important to consider the following:

  • Conduct thorough due diligence: Research the business fundamentals, market conditions, and management team of the spin off company before making any investment decisions.
  • Evaluate the parent company: Consider the impact of the spin off on the parent company and any potential risks or benefits for its existing operations and financial performance. Sometimes it might be better to buy the parent instead of the spinoff.
  • Be patient: Spin offs often drop after they become independent companies. This is because of forced selling by funds that may not want to own a business that does not fit with the rest of their portfolio or is too small for their fund. Spin off companies may take time to establish themselves in the market, so investors should have a long-term investment horizon and be prepared for potential volatility in the short term.
  • Diversify your portfolio: As with any investment, it's important to diversify your portfolio and not put all your eggs in one basket by investing solely in spin off companies.

In conclusion, upcoming spinoffs represent a potential investment opportunity for investors looking to diversify their portfolios and capitalize on focused business strategies. As companies look to unlock value and improve financial performance, spin off companies have become an increasingly popular strategy for separating out specific business segments. Examples of spin off companies include the stock spin off of Ferrari from Fiat Chrysler, PayPal from eBay, Chipotle Mexical Grill from McDonald’s and the corporate spinoff of Alcon from Novartis.

Investors should evaluate the impact on both the parent company and the SpinCo before making any investment decisions. While SpinCos can provide several benefits, including diversification and potential upside, there are also risks associated with investing in these entities, such as limited information and market uncertainty.
