Gerard Leider, Partner, and Ron Rosenthal, Lead Consultant, share expertise and best practices on compensation design for spin-offs on this episode of The Executive Compensation Podcast. Gerard has over 25 years of experience providing guidance on total compensation strategy, analysis, design, and valuation. Ron has extensive experience advising companies undergoing corporate transactions including mergers, acquisitions, and spinoffs. When a company spins off a division into a standalone publicly-traded company, there are many factors to consider. Ron and Gerard offer a three-phase approach to preparing for the transition. They outline what issues to focus on during each phase and what roles the various stakeholder groups should play in the process. You’ll also learn why peer group evaluation and benchmarking are so important for designing competitive compensation plans, key issues to address when designing new annual and long-term incentive plans for spin-off companies, and steps to take when preparing for the new company’s first proxy statement.
