Would like to know if anyone here has considerable experience investing in spinoffs? I see an investment opportunity on the horizon but work in PE and am worried I understand too little about the actual mechanics although I do know a thing or two about the sector. Would appreciate if anyone PM'd me and we can discuss privately instead.

What's there to know? If it's a spin and you own the stock, you'll get a piece of the new company. If it's a split-off, you'll have the option to exchange your shares of the old company for the new company (i.e. Pfizer and Zoetis). You can search for spin-offs directly on the SEC EDGAR site somewhere, spinoff-s are labeled as 12B's or 10-12B

Just review Greenblatt's book, or watch some of his special situation lectures. PM me, I think I still have links.
