Speculation Edita would launch an IPO first emerged in May.
UK-based private-equity firm Actis owns a 30% stake in Edita, which it acquired in June last year for US$102m.
It is unclear how much of Edita will be floated in Cairo.
Officials at Edita and Actis could not be reached for immediate comment.
