Fidelity Southern Corp. (LION) announced that it has priced an underwritten public offering of 5.00 million shares of its common stock at a price of $12.00 per share.
The company noted that it has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 15 percent of the shares of common stock sold pursuant to this transaction to cover over-allotments, if any.
The company stated that it plans to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with its cash on hand as necessary, to: (i) redeem the $48.2 million in shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, originally issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program; and (ii) redeem the two series of its fixed rate trust preferred securities with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $20.5 million, plus an estimated $410 thousand of after-tax redemption premiums.
The company intends to use any remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes.
