Carestream Dental, Atlanta, might be up for sale.
According to Bloomberg News, New York-based buyout firm Clayton Dubilier & Rice is in talks to buy the digital dental-equipment arm of Carestream Health Inc.
Clayton Dubilier & Rice may pay up to $1 billion to acquire Carestream Dental from Onex Corp, a private equity investment firm. In 2007, Onex Corp purchased Carestream from Eastman Kodak Co for a reported $2.4 billion.
All parties have declined to comment, according to the Bloomberg report.
No final decision has been made, and Onex may still opt to see to another party, according to sources who asked not to be identified because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly.
