Dollar General, Rue21 today. Toys 'R' Us next?

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 21:45:01 GMT

Toys "R" Us Inc. may be one of the next private equity-backed retailers to sport an initial public offering, says retail consultant Howard Davidowitz, founder of Davidowitz & Associates. The toy store chain would follow on the heels of successful public debuts Friday of discount retailer Dollar General Corp. (NYSE:DG), backed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., and teen apparel retailer Rue21 Inc. (NASDAQ:RUE), backed by Apax Partners Worldwide LLP. Last month, Vitamin Shoppe Inc. (NYSE:VSI), backed by Irvingplace Capital Management LP and Blackstone Group LP (NYSE:BX), became the first U.S. retailer to go public in two years. Also in October, Dollarama Inc., backed by Bain Capital LLC, debuted on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Private equity firms in general and KKR in particular are expected to take more of their portfolio companies public soon. The Deal spoke with Davidowitz Friday on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as part of our ongoing video series about IPOs. See the video below or download it at iTunes. - Mary Kathleen Flynn

Financial services tech firms attract investors

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 21:35:01 GMT

Banks have spent nearly two years downsizing through workforce reductions and other cost-cutting measures. Now many are turning to technology to further drive efficiency and to help maintain service levels. That in turn is attracting a variety of investors to financial services technology, or fintech, firms with the tools to address those needs. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams & Co., says Xerox Corp's (NYSE:XRX) acquisition of Affiliated Computer Systems Inc. (NYSE:ACS) and Dell Inc.'s (NASDAQ:DELL) of Perot Services Corp. (NYSE:PER) qualify as examples with both targets offering some fintech services. But Bistrong says middle market firms and private equity investors are also driving fintech transactions. See the video below or download it at iTunes.- Suzanne Stevens

So says Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams & Co. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Bistrong says the result is an increase in stock deals and transformational acquisitions. - Suzanne Stevens
