Siemens Healthineers Spinoff: Siemens is planning to offload a significant portion of its Siemens Healthineers business through a direct spinoff, a rare move for a major German company, potentially reducing its ownership to below 40%.
Dividend in Kind: The spinoff will involve distributing a sizable stake in Healthineers to shareholders as a dividend in kind, with plans to be disclosed as early as next week.
Tax Implications: Early discussions with tax authorities suggest that the transaction is unlikely to impose a significant tax burden on investors, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Investor Day Announcement: Siemens is expected to outline its business strategy during its investor day on November 13, with several options still under consideration regarding the spinoff.
