After the close: Managing the hidden risks in divestitures
April 22 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT
Key takeaways
Divestitures often prioritize speed to close, but that urgency has a cost. Deloitte’s 2026 Global Divestiture Survey shows that many sellers experience margin erosion after close, driven by stranded costs, prolonged TSAs, interim operating models, and unresolved tax and legal entity complexity. Once a transaction closes, management focus often shifts, making it harder to unwind complexity and stabilize the remaining organization. Join our session to explore how post-close value erosion takes hold and what leading sellers do differently. We’ll discuss:
How sellers design post-close outcomes before signing
The trade-offs between closing quickly and separating cleanly
