DENVER, Jan. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBCP) (the "Company”) announced today that Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping Holdings Inc. (the "Issuer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has successfully upsized and priced its private offering of $425.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured second lien notes due 2032 (the "Notes”), which was upsized by $25.0 million from the previously announced $400.0 million. The Notes will bear interest at an annual rate of 7.500%. The offering is expected to close on January 31, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Notes to pay the redemption price for all of the Company's outstanding 6.000% senior secured second lien notes due 2026 (the "Existing 2026 Notes”) and pay related fees and expenses thereto. In addition, the remainder of the net proceeds of the Notes, together with cash on hand, will be used to pay a special one-time dividend of $1.00 per share of the common stock of the Company (approximately $53 million in the aggregate). Both of the redemption of the Existing 2026 Notes and the payment of the dividend will be subject to consummation of the offering.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. Any offer of the securities will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.
The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any U.S. persons absent registration under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered and sold only to "qualified institutional buyers” in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act or, outside the United States, to persons other than "U.S. persons” in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.
