Paris, France—Reuters has reported that Tarkett is planning an initial public stock offering. The flooring firm is 50% owned by U.S. private-equity firm KKR and the Deconinck family. KKR will reportedly float part of its stake and the Deconincks will buy more shares to keep their ownership stake above 50%.
A listing on the Paris stock exchange could value Tarkett at as much as 2.5 billion euros ($3.41 billion), according to the Financial Times.
