Webuild sets max purchase amount in tender offer for 2024, 2025 notes

By Mary-Katherine Stinson

Lexington, Ky., Sept. 21 – Webuild SpA announced a maximum purchase amount of €450 million which will apply to its two separate tender offers for the €500 million outstanding 1Ύ% notes due Oct. 26, 2024 (ISIN: XS1707063589) and €750 million outstanding 5 7/8% notes due Dec. 15, 2025 (ISIN: XS2271356201), according to a notice.

As announced on Sept. 18, the company is inviting holders to tender their notes for cash, up to the maximum principal amount, which is equal to the total principal amount of new notes issued under a concurrent offering.

The 2024 notes have priority in acceptance over the 2025 notes.

First, the company will accept tendered first-priority 2024 notes up to the maximum purchase amount – the amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of new notes.

Then, the company will accept tendered second-priority 2025 notes up to the maximum purchase amount less the total nominal amount of first-priority notes accepted for purchase. As a result, fewer or none of the second-priority notes may be accepted for purchase.

The fixed purchase price is 98.1, or €981 per €1,000 nominal amount, for the first-priority 2024 notes and 101.1, or €1,011 per €1,000 nominal amount, for the second-priority 2025 notes.

Tendering noteholders who wish to subscribe for the new notes may receive priority in the allocation of the new notes.

The tender offers will expire at 11 a.m. ET on Sept. 27.

The offeror will announce its decision of whether it will accept the tendered notes, each series acceptance amount, the settlement date and any scaling factor as soon as reasonably practicable on Sept. 27.

Settlement is expected for Sept. 29, subject to the settlement of the new issue.
