New Issue: Morgan Automotive prices $500 million 8¼% eight-year notes at par

By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., July 19 – Morgan Automotive priced a $500 million issue of LCM Investments Holdings II, LLC eight-year senior notes (B2/B+) at par to yield 8¼% in a Wednesday drive-by, according to market sources.

The yield printed 12.5 basis points inside of the 8 3/8% to 8 5/8% yield talks. Initial guidance was in the high-8% area.

The issue came to market on the back of reverse inquiry amounting to the full deal size.

BofA Securities Inc. was the sole bookrunner.
