TMO has an unstated policy of buying the stock in subsidiaries that fall far under the spin-out price. Obviously, things got out of hand this year. The reorganization makes a lot of sense: put like business together to cross sell and make things easier to understand. The reason things got out of hand is they spin out companies that grow from technology in the parent company. But that technology may belong better in an existing Thermo: now they are fixing it up. The shareholders of the subsidiaries getting repurchased or traded should do ok (it probably won't be much less than the issuing price) and the holders of TMO should do very well with the simplified structure and new management.
