Vivint Solar appears to be setting up for an IPO. Interesting that Blackstone sees the value to split solar off from the home security business. A move I understand but not sure I agree with. Short term, maybe, but long term there are too many interconnectivity potentials in the home to separate a combined force. Just look at the utility boards across the Country, home security is everywhere. Congrats to the Vivint team however, though I have yet to meet one of you.
