Brazilian conglomerate Cosan SA is working with American banks on a potential US initial public offering of its Moove lubricant business, according to people familiar with the matter.

Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. are the banks working with the firm, said the people, who asked not to be named because the information isn’t public. A US listing could come as early as the second half of the year depending on market conditions, they said.
