Basic Energy Services, Inc. To Continue Listing New Shares Of Common Stock And Resume Trading Under Ticker "BAS" Following Emergence From Chapter 11 Reorganization
FORT WORTH, Texas, Dec. 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Basic Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: BAS) ("Basic" or the "Company") today announced that the Company received approval to list its new common stock with the new CUSIP number 06985P 209 (the "New Common Shares") on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the same NYSE ticker symbol "BAS" as the existing shares of the Company's issued common stock (the "Existing Shares"), in conjunction with its anticipated emergence from chapter 11 reorganization in accordance with the First Amended Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Basic Energy Services, Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (as confirmed, the "Prepackaged Plan") that was confirmed on December 9, 2016 by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
The Company currently anticipates emerging from bankruptcy on December 23, 2016 (the "Effective Date"). The stockholders of record at the close of business on the Effective Date will be entitled to receive New Common Shares and warrants with the CUSIP number 06985P 118 (the "Warrants") in accordance with the Prepackaged Plan. In addition, participants in the Company's previously announced rights offering (the "Rights Offering') who have properly exercised their rights pursuant thereto, and/or are backstop parties to the Rights Offering, will also receive New Common Shares on the Effective Date. All Existing Shares (with the CUSIP number 06985P 100) will be cancelled after the close of business on the Effective Date, and the New Common Shares and Warrants will be issued at such time.
Assuming emergence on the Effective Date of December 23, 2016, trading in the New Common Shares is expected to commence on December 27, 2016, under the ticker symbol "BAS," which is the same trading symbol used for the Company's common stock previously listed on the NYSE. The Warrants will not be listed on the NYSE or any other exchange at this time.
Because the Company will retain the ticker symbol "BAS" after the effective date of the Prepackaged Plan, holders of Existing Shares, and brokers, dealers and agents effecting trades in Existing Shares, and persons who expect to receive New Common Shares or effect trades in New Common Shares, should take note of the anticipated cancellation of the Existing Shares and issuance of New Common Shares, and the two different CUSIP numbers signifying the Existing Shares and the New Common Shares, in trading or taking any other actions in respect of shares of the Company that trade under the "BAS" ticker.
Pro Forma Ownership Summary
As previously disclosed, under the Prepackaged Plan, pre-petition holders of the Company's unsecured notes will receive 14,925,000 New Common Shares, representing approximately 57.8% of the New Common Shares after giving effect to shares issuable in connection with the rights offering and before
