Summary
- BHC’s stake in BLCO that is set to be distributed to shareholders is worth more than the current market capitalization of the entirety of BHC, giving investors a compelling return.
- The BLCO spinoff and Solta Medical IPO proceeds are sufficient for BHC to shoulder its approximately $20 billion debt load.
- BHC's intrinsic value is more than its current market capitalization, even if a distribution of BLCO and an IPO of Solta Medical do not materialize.
