The bio-tech industry recently witnessed a major event with 3M's health division spinoff, resulting in the creation of Solventum Corporation (SOLV). The split was planned to be tax-free to shareholders. SOLV now trades as one of Minnesota's newest Fortune 500 companies on the New York Stock Exchange, after getting approved by 3M's board of directors. Solventum's security rating, however, has been deemed neutral by analysts at Bank of America.
Despite a shaky start on its NYSE debut, SOLV managed to exceed Wall Street estimates in Q1, with modest revenue growth and the appointment of Shirley Edwards to their board of directors. Furthermore, SOLV's addition to the S&P 500 Index, solicited varied projections from finance giants Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley, starting SOLV stock at Equal Weight considering growth and debt considerations.
