CNO Financial Group, Inc. (CNO) on Thursday announced the pricing and an increase in size of its previously announced offering of senior secured notes due 2020.
The company said it is increasing the total size of the offering from $250 million to $275 million and also expects to increase the size of its new six-year term loan facility from $400 million to $425 million.
The Notes will bear interest at 6.375% per annum, payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 and will mature on October 1, 2020.
The closing of the offering is expected to occur on September 28.
CNO estimates that the net proceeds of the offering will be about $267 million, after deducting initial purchasers' discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.
The company plans to use the net proceeds of the offering, together with the borrowings under a $425 million six-year term loan facility and $250 million four-year term loan facility under a new senior secured credit agreement, to repay all amounts outstanding under its existing senior secured credit agreement, purchase up to all of its outstanding 9.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 tendered pursuant to CNO's previously announced cash tender and consent solicitation, purchase about $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.0% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2016 and pay fees and expenses related to the offering and the transactions described above.
