HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (Nasdaq: BECN) ("Beacon") announced today
that it has priced its previously announced private offering of $300
million aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% senior notes due 2023
(the "Notes"). The initial offering price to investors will be 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes. The Notes will be sold to qualified
institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to non-U.S. persons in
transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under
the Securities Act. The offering is expected to close on October 1,
2015, subject to customary closing conditions and the substantially
concurrent consummation of Beacon's previously announced acquisition of
Roofing Supply Group ("RSG"). Beacon intends to use the net proceeds
from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under its
anticipated new senior secured credit facilities, to pay the cash
consideration for the RSG acquisition, to refinance certain of Beacon's
existing indebtedness, to repay certain existing indebtedness of RSG and
to pay related transaction premiums, fees and expenses.
The Notes and related subsidiary guarantees will be offered only to
qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons
in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S under the
Securities Act. The Notes and related subsidiary guarantees have not
been registered under the Securities Act, or any securities laws of any
state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the
United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable
securities laws. This press release shall not constitute an offer to
sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, nor does it
constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which
such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. The Notes offering is
being made only by means of a private offering memorandum, and is not
being made to any person in any jurisdiction in which such offer, sale
or solicitation is unlawful.
