[ATLANTA] Home Depot said on Monday it would buy industrial goods wholesaler HD Supply Holdings in a deal valued at about US$8 billion.
The home improvement chain said it would offer US$56 per share in cash to HD Supply shareholders, a near 25 per cent premium to the stock's last close.
Home Depot's smaller rival Lowe's Cos last week said it was not in talks to buy HD Supply, denying a previous media report.
