Spin offs

• Typically parent corporation distributes on pro rata basis, all the shares it owns in subsidiary to its own shareholders.

• No money generally changes hands• Non taxable event

– as long as it jumps through substantial hoops

Page 6: Equity Carve Out

A Spin-off

• In spin-off a company is distributing the subsidiary shares that it owns as a dividend to its shareholders who will, then, own shares in the subsidiary rather than through parent company.

Equity Carve-out Spin-off

In this the stock of the subsidiary is sold in the public

markets for cash which is received by the parent

company

In this distribution is made pro rata to the shareholders of the

parent firm as a dividend-a form of noncash payment to

the share holders.

Here the parent generally sells only a minority interest in the

subsidiary and maintains control over subsidiary assets

and operations.

Here the parent firm no longer has control over the subsidiary

assets.
