RTI International Metals Prices Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019
PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RTI International Metals, Inc. (NYS: RTI) , today announced the pricing of its public offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (the "Convertible Notes"), in an offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), which amount represents a $100 million increase over the previously announced amount. RTI has granted the underwriters of the Convertible Notes a thirty-day option to purchase up to an additional $52.5 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes on the same terms and conditions to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Convertible Notes will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year beginning October 15, 2013, at an annual rate of 1.625%, and will mature on October 15, 2019 unless earlier repurchased or converted. The initial conversion rate for the Convertible Notes is 24.5604 shares of RTI common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (representing an initial conversion price of approximately $40.72 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment in certain events. Upon conversion, RTI will deliver or pay, as the case may be, shares of RTI common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of RTI common stock, at RTI's election. The net proceeds to RTI from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses, will be approximately $339 million (assuming no exercise of the over-allotment). The offering is expected to close on April 17, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions.
RTI has committed to use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Convertible Notes to repurchase approximately $115.6 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 3.000% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015 through individually negotiated private repurchases totaling approximately $132.1 million. The remainder of the proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures and potential future acquisitions.
The Convertible Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of RTI, and will be guaranteed by each of RTI's subsidiaries that guarantee RTI's obligations under RTI's current credit facility, as amended. Each subsidiary guarantee will be a joint and several, unconditional guarantee of RTI's obligations under the Convertible Notes and the indenture under which the Convertible Notes are issued.
