Strong growth is expected in the global LED lighting market and with dozens of brokers covering the $88bn industrial conglomerate, Siemens (SIE), little to no detailed work has been done by the sell-side brokers to fully evaluate the fundamental valuations and opportunities post break-up for Siemens' world leading lights business, Osram (OSR) that will be listed via a Spinoff next Monday (July 8).
"Technically, by knowing the break-up valuations, there's a significant potential upside play for investors post Osram separating from its parent Siemens. Our pre-event anaylsis reveals precisely why and importantly when [what price] it's worth buying"comments Ryan Mendy, COO of TSR (The Spinoff Report®), the UK based, top global independent research advisor on Corporate Spinoffs and Special Situations.

Mendy continued: "Siemens' spinning off Osram is a positive step in the direction of reviving the lighting business, which is going through the transformation phase
"The global lighting market is currently undergoing major fundamental changes wherein the technological change, with respect to products based on light emitting diodes (LED) are expected to witness strong growth against traditional products experiencing a decline. Osram is represented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements of Siemens AG. Siemens (ex-Spinoff), on the other hand, is focused on strengthening core activities and cost reduction strategy through its productivity improvement programs, a benefit which is to start flowing from FY14", added Mendy.
