GE closed trading on Tuesday at $70.71 at close: 03:59 PM EDT

The industrial conglomerate General Electric (NYSE:GE) was rumored to be reducing its office space in Boston and other corporate sites as it prepares to split into three divisions.

For the shares of its GE Healthcare spinoff, which will trade as a separate company in 2019, the company this week submitted registration paperwork. In 2024, GE intends to integrate its renewable energy and power businesses into a new entity called Vernova. The remainder of GE will focus on aviation.

Even while the business is looking for a new, smaller office location, GE’s global headquarters will remain in Boston, a spokesperson told Reuters. It informed staff members of its decision to vacate the 100,000 square feet it currently possesses in two restored brick buildings at 5 Necco Street in Boston and move into a smaller office location elsewhere in the city on Tuesday. Originally, it had planned an 800-person corporate campus, but today, fewer than 200 individuals work there. According to the Boston Globe, a large number of them work part-time.

Additionally, GE intends to move out of a location on Madison Avenue in New York and combine its Norwalk, Connecticut, office space in December. Additionally, the Crotonville Learning Campus in Ossining, New York, will be up for sale. GE has lost 27% of its value this year, compared to the S&P 500 Stock Index’s 23% loss (SP500).

General Electric (NYSE:GE) is a deep-value bet among the spinoffs, according to Seeking Alpha contributor Daniel Jones, who rates it as a Strong Buy. On the basis of the prospective growth for the individual companies, columnist Micahel Coppola rates GE as a buy.
