McGraw-Hill could reap just $1 from a sale of Business Week, according to people familiar with the 80-year-old financial magazine's losses.
据了解《商业周刊》(Business Week)亏损情况的人士透露,麦格劳-希尔(McGraw-Hill)出售这家有80年历史的杂志,可能只能得到1美元。
The publisher has appointed Evercore, the boutique investment bank, to sell the business after concluding it was non-core, two people familiar with the decision said.
据两位知情人士介绍,在确定《商业周刊》为非核心业务后,出版商麦格劳-希尔已指定精品投资银行Evercore负责出售这块业务。
McGraw-Hill, which owns the Standard & Poor's rating agency and a large educational publisher, would only say it was “exploring strategic options” for Business Week. Evercore did not return calls.
麦格劳-希尔仅表示,正在为《商业周刊》“探索各种战略选择”,Evercore没有回复记者致电。麦格劳-希尔旗下还拥有评级机构标准普尔(Standard & Poor's)以及一家大型教育出版公司。
