KKR & Co Inc (KKR) has acquired a large stake in Henry Schein (HSIC) and plans to work with the medical- and dental-supply company to boost its operations, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday, citing unnamed people familiar with the matter.

The private equity firm plans to reveal an agreement that includes raising its stake in Henry Schein to 12% with an option to buy a further 2.9% in the future, the sources told WSJ.

Henry Schein has also agreed to give the KKR two board seats, with a representative from KKR joining a board committee that has been working on CEO succession planning, according to the report.

KKR and Henry Schein did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment on the matter.
