Premark International Inc. said yesterday that it would spin off its Tupperware subsidiary to shareholders. Tupperware, which makes plastic storage containers, is the company's largest and most profitable business, with earnings of $200 million on sales of $1.3 billion last year. The spinoff of Tupperware, based in Orlando, Fla., will leave Premark with the PMI Food Equipment Group and Wilsonart International, among other businesses. The remaining Premark units earned $156 million last year on revenue of $2.1 billion. The company, based in Deerfield, Ill., said it decided to spin off the unit because the nature of direct-selling businesses like Tupperware differed from its other businesses.

The Cordis Corporation rejected Johnson & Johnson's $1.6 billion hostile takeover bid yesterday, calling the $100-a-share cash offer inadequate. Cordis, a Miami-based maker of medical devices to treat heart disease, also rejected Johnson & Johnson's offer to negotiate a stock swap valued at $1.7 billion, or $105 a share. Johnson & Johnson, based in New Brunswick, N.J., said it would press ahead with plans to remove the Cordis board through a consent solicitation and called its $105-a- share offer "full and fair." Johnson & Johnson, the nation's largest maker of health care products and drugs, made the bids on Oct. 19 after Cordis refused to meet to discuss a merger. Shares of Cordis rose $1.75 yesterday, to $112.25, a 52-week high on the New York Stock Exchange.
