On February 17, 2015, Dean Foods Company (the “Company”) agreed to sell in a private placement $700 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) at an issue price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest, if any, from February 25, 2015. The issuance of the Notes is expected to close on February 25, 2015.
The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to finance the redemption of its outstanding senior unsecured notes due 2016. The Company intends to use the remaining net proceeds to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility and receivables-backed facility.
The Notes are being offered to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Copies of the press releases announcing the offering and the pricing of the Notes are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.
