Hexagon rises as it considers ALI biz spin-off
** Shares in Hexagon HEXAb.ST rise 6%, pairing gains after rising as much as 13.3%, after the Swedish industrial technology group said it mulls a spin-off of its Asset Lifecycle Intelligence (ALI) business
** The group said it was evaluating listing options for the new company in the U.S. and Sweden
** Stifel says this spin-off would simplify the strategy of both Hexagon and the new company and remove some complexity from the investment case
** Citi says that Hexagon has often been cited as collection of large set of assets which not necessarily bring synergies to all set. "In that context separation plan could be seen favourably," it adds
** Also on Friday Hexagon posted its quarterly results with Q3earnings below estimates
** The stock is on track for its best day since Dec 2023, if gains hold
