Bain Capital-backed Kioxia filed for IPO on Friday and sources familiar with the matter said the Japanese chipmaker was targeting December for the offering.

Bain scrapped plans for an IPO in October after investors pushed the U.S. buyout firm to almost halve the 1.5 trillion yen ( $9.8 billion ) valuation it was seeking.
