New Issue: Key Plastics sells $115 million six-year notes to yield 11.868%

By Michelle Anderson

Rochester, N.H., Feb. 22 - Key Plastics Finance Corp. priced a $115 million issue of 11¾% six-year senior secured notes (B2/B) at 99.50 to yield 11.868% on Thursday, according to an informed source.

The deal had been talked with an 11¾% coupon with an issue price range of 99.00 to 99.50. Hence it came tight to talk with respect to the issue price.

Proceeds together with an equity contribution from an affiliate of Ewing Management Group, will be used to refinance debt and for general corporate purposes.
