HP looking to sell photo-sharing service Snapfish: Source

HP has held discussions with multiple private equity and industry buyers to sell Snapfish, a person with knowledge of the situation said.

NEW YORK: Hewlett-Packard (HP) is exploring the sale of its web-based photo-sharing service Snapfish, and has held discussions with multiple private equity and industry buyers, a person with knowledge of the situation said. 

Snapfish, which HP bought for more than $300 million in 2005 and currently sits within its printing and personal systems group, is considered non-core unit for the company, the person said, asking not to be named because the matter is not public. 

A spokesman for HP declined to comment. 

Last year, HP replaced the printing and personal business' long-time head Todd Bradley with former Lenovo executive Dion Weisler. Bradley has since left the technology company, to join Tibco Software as its president. 

Some of the parties that have been eyeing Snapfish have also expressed interest in buying another online photo-sharing services provider, Shutterfly, the person said. 

Shutterfly hired Frank Quattrone's Qatalyst Partners over the summer to find a buyer, and is expected wrap up its process in the next several weeks, people familiar with the matter have said previously
