| Tiivistelmä: | Prior research on divestiture has found that spin-offs and sell-offs were associated with significant positive abnormal returns. However, these studies have not identified whether these benefits were expected to accrue to the divesting firm, the divested unit, or both. A recent study examined the performance as autonomous firms a sample of 51 voluntary spin-offs across a 6-year period. No change in pre- and post-spin-off performances were observed except for the decline in profitability return on assets (ROA). The effect of relatedness between the parent company and the spin-off was also examined. Previously unrelated divested units reported deterioration in performance. Implication for divestiture and restructuring programs are developed. |
