The owners of Dematic Corp. are considering an exit that could value the closely held U.S. logistics company at about $2 billion, people familiar with the matter said.

AEA Investors and Teachers Private Capital, the private equity arm of Ontario Teachers Pension Plan, have held early stage talks with banks about a possible sale or initial public offering of Dematic this year, said the people who asked not to be identified because the information is private. The buyout firms bought Dematic for an undisclosed sum from Triton Advisers in 2012. No final decision has been made, and the owners may choose not to proceed with an exit, the people said.
