Siemens Healthineers Stock Falters Amid Siemens' Potential Share Sale
Siemens Healthineers' stock price has hit a snag due to the looming prospect of Siemens AG selling its shares. Despite Siemens' stock being among the top gainers in the current strong market, the potential sale is causing hesitation among investors.
Siemens currently holds a significant 71 percent stake in Siemens Healthineers, valued at around €52 billion. The company is scheduled to present its future strategy and plans for Siemens Healthineers at its capital market day on November 13. However, a spin-off of Siemens Healthineers is unlikely before 2026, as it would require shareholder approval.
One option Siemens is considering is paying out its shares in Siemens Healthineers as a dividend to its own shareholders. This could potentially unlock new opportunities for Siemens and its shareholders. However, a direct spin-off could have tax implications for investors. To mitigate this, Siemens could retain a minority stake and sell it later.
Investors are advised to hold off on entering Siemens Healthineers at the moment due to the uncertainty surrounding Siemens' stake. However, a solution for the stake could change this, potentially opening up new opportunities for both Siemens and its shareholders.
