CCC Intelligent Solutions is trading 5.2% up in after-hours trading at $6.23 following a 10% climb during the regular session to close at $5.92. The surge is attributed to reports that the company is exploring a potential sale and has engaged Morgan Stanley to oversee the process, contacting potential buyers including private equity firms. This development follows a period where CCC's market value has declined significantly, prompting the company to seek strategic options.
