Women's clothing retailer J.Jill taps banks for IPO: source
[NEW YORK] Women's apparel and footwear retailer J.Jill Group has tapped Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Jefferies Group LLC as underwriters for a possible initial public offering, a source familiar with the matter said.
Private equity firm TowerBrook Capital Partners LP, which bought the retailer last year, could raise about US$150 million in an offering that could value J.Jill at around US$750 million to US$800 million, the source said.
TowerBrook bought J.Jill from private equity firm Golden Gate Capital and global investment firm Arcapita last March.
TowerBrook declined to comment.
