New Issue: Savers sells upsized $550 million 9¾% secured notes due April 2027 to yield 10¼%

By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., Jan. 26 – Savers Value Village, Inc. priced an upsized $550 million issue of 9¾% senior secured notes due April 26, 2027 (B2/B) at 97.986 to yield 10¼% on Thursday, according to a syndicate source.

The yield printed at the tight end of the 10¼% to 10½% yield talk. The issue price came in line with price talk that specified approximately 2 points of OID.

Jefferies LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and KKR Capital Markets LLC were the bookrunners.

The co-issuers are Evergreen AcqCo 1 LP and TVI, Inc., both subsidiaries of Savers Value Village.

The Bellevue, Wash.-based thrift store operator plans to use the proceeds to repay a portion of its term loan and fund a distribution to its shareholders. The incremental proceeds resulting from the $50 million upsize of the deal will be used to increase the distribution by $35 million, with the remainder to be used for general corporate purposes.
