Alrosa may hold an initial public offering next year that could value the company at between $7.3 billion to $9 billion, Vedomosti reported Monday, citing an unidentified company official.
Alrosa expects to sell between 20 percent and 25 percent of the company for $1.5 billion to $2.3 billion.
The company said it plans to sell $3.46 billion of diamonds in 2010, up slightly from last month’s forecast of $3.34 billion.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
