NEW YORK, ‌July 9 (Reuters) - ​CCC ​Intelligent Solutions, a provider of software and AI-powered workflow tools, is exploring a sale of the company, ‌according to three people familiar with the matter.

The Chicago-based ⁠company has hired Morgan Stanley to advise on a sale process and ‌has reached out to prospective ‌buyers, including private equity firms, the sources said.

CCC and Morgan Stanley did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Shares rose ​13% to $6.09 in after-hours trading following the Reuters report on it exploring a sale.

CCC provides software used by auto ⁠insurers, collision repair shops, automakers and parts suppliers to manage accident claims, vehicle repairs ​and related workflows. The company says its platform connects more than 35,000 businesses across the property-and-casualty insurance ​ecosystem.

The company's market value has fallen ‌to roughly $3.3 billion from about $6.4 billion a year ago as investors grew concerned about slowing growth, ⁠weaker industry claims volumes and slower-than-expected adoption of some of its newer software products. The company's shares have declined about 44% over the ⁠past 12 months.

CCC has explored a sale previously. Reuters reported in 2023 ​that the company was considering strategic options including a potential sale after attracting takeover interest, though no transaction materialized.

Advent International, which acquired CCC in ‌2017 and took it public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company in 2021, ‌fully exited its investment in 2025 through a series of ⁠secondary share offerings, including the ‌sale of its ​remaining stake in November.
