Why Your Stock Is Worth Less After a Spin-Off

from The Compensation Podcast with Fexingo: Pay Transparency, Equity, Bonuses, and Total Comp · host Fexingo

When a company spins off a division, shareholders often see their existing stock drop — not because the business is failing, but because the market re-prices the remaining entity. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down the mechanics of a spin-off using the 2025 GE Vernova example: how the math works, why your equity compensation might take a hit, and what HR rarely tells you about adjusting your total comp expectations. Practical takeaways for anyone holding RSUs or options during a corporate separation. #StockSpinOff #EquityComp #RSUs #Restructuring #GEVernova #TotalCompensation #EmployeeEquity #Finance #PayTransparency #CorporateAction #SpinOffImpact #CompensationPodcast #Careers #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna #Divestiture #ShareholderValue Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
