How the best divest
Most corporations are not as skilled at selling off assets as they are at buying them, often divesting at the wrong time or in the wrong way. Either is a very expensive mistake. A Bain & Company study has found that over the last 20 years, corporations that took a disciplined approach to divestiture created nearly twice as much value for shareholders as the average firm. In this article, Bain partners Mankins, Harding, and Weddigen set out the four straightforward rules those effective divestors follow. First: Just as they have acquisition teams, smart divestors have full-time divestiture groups, which continually screen their companies' portfolios for likely businesses to sell off and think through the timing and implementation steps needed to maximize value in each particular case. Second: They choose their divestiture candidates objectively. Too many firms rush to sell in economic downturns, when prices are low. Thoughtful divestors will sell only those businesses that do not fit with the corporation's core and are not worth more to themselves than they are to any other company. Third: Successful divestors consider how to structure a deal and to whom they will sell as carefully as they consider what units to sell and when. And they are as meticulous about planning the implementation of a deal as savvy acquirers are about postmerger integration. Fourth: They make a compelling case for how, and how quickly, the deal will benefit the buyer, and they make sure the selling unit's employees will be motivated to stay on and realize that value. Using these four rules, companies as diverse as Textron, Weyerhaeuser, Ford, Groupe Danone, and Roche have become "divestiture ready": consistently able to sell at the right time and in the right way to create the most value for their shareholders..Printed journal
