We are seeking to raise $400 million in a private placement of senior notes (the “notes”). The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Boise Cascade and will be guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries.
Boise Cascade intends to use the net proceeds of the offering, together with cash on hand, to repurchase any and all of its outstanding 5.625% senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) in a cash tender offer announced today, to redeem any 2024 Notes that remain outstanding after the consummation of the tender offer, to pay off its term loan of $45.0 million, and to pay fees and expenses related to the offering of the notes and incurred in connection with the repurchase of the 2024 Notes.
The notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and will not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The offering of the notes will be made only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.
This press release is issued pursuant to Rule 135c of the Securities Act and does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security. No offer, solicitation, or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.
