Shares of Walgreens Boots Alliance moved higher in premarket trading Tuesday after The Wall Street Journal reported that the drugstore chain is closing in on a roughly $10 billion deal to be acquired by private-equity firm Sycamore Partners.
The planned deal would see Sycamore paying between $11.30 and $11.40 a share in cash for Walgreens, The Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
The sides are aiming to complete a deal as soon as Thursday, according to the report.
Walgreens shares were recently up 6% at $10.88 in premarket trading.
