TOKYO -- U.S. private equity group Carlyle said Monday it will seek to take the operator of KFC fried chicken restaurants in Japan private in a roughly 130 billion yen ($835 million) acquisition.
Carlyle will launch a tender offer for Tokyo-listed KFC Holdings Japan at 6,500 yen per share, about a 20% premium versus the company's 5,400 yen closing price on Monday.
