CRH and Heidelberg Materials Reportedly Among Suitors for A Business Being Sold by NCC CRH plc (NYSE:CRH) and Heidelberg Materials AG (XTRA:HEI) are among suitors for a business being sold by NCC AB (publ) (OM:NCC B), according to people familiar with the matter.

The unit, which accounts for about 20% of NCC's sales, could fetch as much as $1 billion (EUR 850 million) in a transaction, some of the people said, asking not to be identified because talks are private. Deliberations are ongoing and the suitors could decide against proceeding with their bids, the people said. NCC could also opt to keep the business for longer, they added. A representative for NCC said the company is still hoping to reach a conclusion of the strategic review before the end of the year, declining to comment on the bidders.
