Thomson Reuters to sell 51% stake in global print business to KKR for $500 million

Thomson Reuters will sell a 51% stake in its Global Print business to private equity firm KKR for $500 million, retaining intellectual property rights, editorial control, and a 49% stake in the venture. The Global Print unit, which generated $490 million in revenue last year, supplies legal and tax information in print and digital book formats. The deal, expected to close in Q4 2026, allows Thomson Reuters to sharpen focus on its Big 3 segments of legal, corporates, and tax/accounting, while providing the print unit focused investment as a standalone business.
