Updated October 4, 2026 · through Special Situations Digest #35 (Oct 4, 2026) · 102 this week
A running index of corporate divestitures and asset sales covered in the Special Situations Digest: recent divisional sales, subsidiary divestitures, and non-core asset disposals across global markets, with each item linked to the underlying filing. Below: the 100 most recent situations spanning 20 countries. Earlier coverage includes 1197+ additional situations from prior issues.
Divestitures are the quieter counterpart to spin-offs: instead of distributing a unit to shareholders, the parent sells it to a strategic or financial buyer. The catalysts are similar — portfolio rationalization, debt reduction, capital reallocation — but the value-unlock paths differ. Divesting parents often see a re-rating once non-core operations are gone, while strategic buyers occasionally overpay for synergy assumptions. Both ends of the trade can be investable.
