SoftBank is in early talks to acquire Allied Universal, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal's US Business desk.
If the deal is completed, it could value the business at around $18 billion, placing it among the notable transactions in the current market.
The discussions are at an early stage, and no agreement has been announced. Terms could change or the talks could fail before any deal is reached.
Any transaction of this scale would draw close attention from investors and industry observers, given the size of the potential valuation and the companies involved.
