Market Chatter: Blackstone, CD&R Weigh Bids for Magnum Ice Cream

MT Newswires Live05-15 18:46

Blackstone (BX) and CD&R are in the preliminary stages of exploring offers to acquire Magnum Ice Cream (MICC), Reuters reported Friday, citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter.

The private equity firms are monitoring the company's share price and awaiting summer performance data before making a decision, the news outlet reported, citing the sources.

Magnum is also attracting interest from other buyout group, as prospective investors view the producer as a turnaround candidate that could increase profitability through cost reductions, the report said.

Blackstone, CD&R and Magnum Ice Cream did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
