Siemens announces its intention to deconsolidate its remaining stake in Siemens Healthineers (currently circa 67 percent). The company plans to transfer 30 percent of Siemens Healthineers shares to Siemens AG shareholders by way of a direct spin-off as preferable option. Thus, Siemens shareholders will benefit directly and receive shares in Siemens Healthineers. At the same time, the deconsolidation will provide potential to unlock long-term value for Siemens shareholders as a more focused technology company with a highly synergistic Siemens portfolio.  Siemens plans to reduce its stake in Siemens Healthineers to a significant minority to allow greater capital allocation flexibility.
