Nyrstar accepts tenders for €247.64 million of two note series

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Oct. 1 – Nyrstar NV wholly owned subsidiary Nyrstar Netherlands (Holdings) BV completed its public tender offer for up to €320 million of notes.

The offer, launched on Sept. 16, was for any and all of the company’s €220 million principal amount of outstanding 5½% bonds due April 9, 2015 and up to €100 million of its outstanding €515 million 5 3/8% bonds due May 11, 2016.

As of 10 a.m. ET on Sept. 29, the expiration of the offer, €147.7 million of 5½% bonds were tendered and accepted and €270,277,000 of 5 3/8% bonds were tendered. Because the amount of 5 3/8% bonds tendered exceeded the offer cap, the amount of 5 3/8% bonds accepted under the offer was reduced on a pro rata basis; the company accepted a total of €99,936,000 of the 5 3/8% bonds.

The offer price is €1,022.50 for each €1,000 of 5½% bonds and €1,027.50 for each €1,000 of 5 3/8% bonds.

In addition, the company will pay accrued interest up to the payment date, expected to be Oct. 6.

The tender offer was initially conditioned on completion of a €251,633,365 rights offering, which was completed on Tuesday. As a result, the tender offer is no longer conditioned on the rights offering.

The tender offer is a part of a comprehensive strategic financing, the company previously said. In addition to the tender offer, the financing consists of the rights offering and an offering of €350 million of 8½% senior notes due 2019, which priced on Sept. 12.

Goldman Sachs International acted as global coordinator and Goldman Sachs International, KBC Bank NV and BNP Paribas Fortis SA/NV as dealer managers of the tender offer.

The Balen, Belgium, mining and metals business issued the 5½% bonds on April 9, 2010 and the 5 3/8% bonds on May 11, 2011.
