Pearson to Explore Sale of Financial Times - Bloomberg Business

Pearson to Explore Sale of Financial Times - Bloomberg Business:



"Pearson Plc is exploring a sale of the Financial Times after receiving interest from potential buyers, according to people familiar with the matter.



London-based Pearson is sounding out possible bidders for the salmon-colored newspaper, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the deliberations are confidential. A sale may value the business at as much as 1 billion pounds ($1.6 billion), two of the people said.



While there is no formal process under way, the Financial Times may draw interest from media companies such as Axel Springer SE as well as investors in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, the people said."
