Blackstone (BX) and Carlyle-owned (CG) Medline Industries seeks to raise more than $5 billion in a US-listed initial public offering expected as early as Q2 next year, Reuters reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
The offering could value the medical supplies provider at about $50 billion, Reuters reported Thursday.
Medline private equity owners, that also includes Hellman & Friedman, have already solicited investment bank proposals to underwrite the IPO, the report said.
Medline was acquired for $34 billion in 2021, the report said.
Medline, Blackstone, and Carlyle did not immediately reply to MT Newswires' request for comment.
