Divestitures and Spin-offs

Divestitures and Spin-offs

Minimize risk, maximize value, and leave separated businesses better than when they started.

Divestitures and Spin-offs

Our research finds that 50% of companies pursuing a separation fail to create any new shareholder value two years down the road, and 25% destroy a significant amount of shareholder value in the process. 

Our divestiture consultants take you well beyond a successful Day One. We tailor our approach based on a detailed understanding of your business and key value drivers. By helping you craft a strong separation thesis that clearly defines your equity story, target financials, asset perimeter, and program design, we create a strategic, sustainable roadmap to value creation.

We work closely with your leadership to embed new M&A capabilities—helping you sustain the value you achieve. From preparing assets for sale and minimizing the risk of complex carve-outs to shaping the remaining business to succeed, our customized program creates 20% more combined equity value two years post-spin-off than the average. Beyond achieving the highest possible value, we ensure a longer-term reward: thriving standalone businesses.
