Private equity firms Sun Capital Partners and TDR Capital are closing in on a 拢400m deal to takeover social housing firm Keepmoat
According to Sky 好色先生TV, negotiations over a deal are in advanced stages and could see a deal be signed this week.
As 好色先生TV revealed in June, at least four separate firms have been interested in tabling bids for the Doncaster-based contractor and housebuilder.
Keepmoat confirmed in June it was in 鈥渆arly stage鈥� discussions with potential investors following a report linking it to UK investor Apollo Global Management and Canadian firm Onex.
Both are understood to have tabled bids valuing the business in the region of 拢500m.
Keepmoat was formed in March 2012 following the merger of Apollo and the Keepmoat Group of companies.
It has 22 regional offices and employs around 3,000 people across the UK.
Sun Capital Partners is an investment firm headed by Hugh Osmond, the prominent City financier and co-founder of PizzaExpress.
