Putney founder gifts nearly $1M to employees Jean Hoff man, who sold Putney Inc. to Dechra Pharmaceuticals for $200 million, gifted $14,000 to Putney employees who were there at least six months, Maine Startups Insider reported. Overall, she gifted $840,000 to roughly 60 of Putney's employees. "I felt the contributions of Putney's team were so important and so inte- gral to our success," Hoff man told the Startups Insider. "And I really felt that my return in the transaction was in considerable part because of — and would not have been possible without — the contributions of the team and people staying through to the end. And I didn't feel that the investors were rewarding the team as fully or as generously as I wanted them to be — as they had earned." e $14,000 gift was based on the maximum allowed under by IRS rules. Hoff man founded Putney in 2006 and departed the company after the sale.
