English term or phrase: they establish them as independent companies and they move on

“I think it is probably true to say that the world of large, conglomerating businesses – where a third product line is added to two other, unrelated, businesses – is over. CEOs are going to rationalise and run efficient businesses in discrete product lines or markets they understand. Those they don’t, they sell; they establish them as independent companies and they move on,” he says.
另，then指谁？

根据上下文，我想THEM是指 THOSE BUSINESSES THEY DONT UNDERSTAND。

那些他们不了解的生意，他们就出售掉。他们将这些生意作为独立公司出售，而他们自己就在他们熟悉的行业继续发展。
