MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Nov 20, 2017) - Bombardier Inc. ("Bombardier" or the "Corporation") (TSX:BBD.A)(TSX:BBD.B)(OTCQX:BDRBF) today announced that it has successfully priced its previously announced offering of new Senior Notes. The issuance is for an aggregate principal amount of US$1,000,000,000 of new Senior Notes due December 1, 2024, which carry a coupon of 7.50% per annum and will be sold at par (the "Notes"). The issuance is expected to close on or about November 27, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions.
The net proceeds of the offering are expected to be used to finance a previously announced tender offer (the "Tender Offer") for all US$600 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of Bombardier's 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 ("2019 Notes") and the remainder for general corporate purposes. To the extent that less than US$600 million aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes are tendered in the Tender Offer, Bombardier intends to redeem all of its remaining outstanding 2019 Notes, using a portion of the net proceeds of the offering of Notes, following the closing of the offering of Notes.
Consummation of the offering of the Notes and the Tender Offer is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance that Bombardier will be able to successfully complete these transactions on the terms described above, or at all.
