Positive
  • Strong early participation with US$83,656,000 of Notes tendered
  • Tender Offer not oversubscribed, allowing full acceptance of early tenders
  • Offering attractive Total Consideration of US$980.00 per US$1,000 principal amount
Negative
  • Potential increase in debt service costs if new debt is issued at higher rates to fund the tender offer
  • Reduction in outstanding debt may be viewed negatively by some investors preferring higher leverage

Insights

This tender offer by Adecoagro to repurchase up to $100 million of its 6% senior notes due 2027 is a positive development for the company's financial position. By offering to buy back debt at a discount to face value ($980 per $1,000 principal amount), Adecoagro can reduce its outstanding debt and interest expenses.

The strong early tender results, with $83.66 million tendered, indicate investor willingness to participate. This allows Adecoagro to achieve most of its debt reduction goal. The 2% discount to face value represents moderate savings on the debt repurchase. Overall, this tender offer should modestly improve Adecoagro's balance sheet and reduce future interest costs, which is incrementally positive for equity holders.

Adecoagro's tender offer demonstrates proactive liability management. By repurchasing bonds at a discount, the company is effectively deleveraging its balance sheet and reducing interest expenses. The $30 early tender premium incentivized quick participation, resulting in 83.66% of the target amount tendered early.

This transaction likely takes advantage of current market conditions, potentially due to rising interest rates making the 6% coupon relatively less attractive. For Adecoagro, this could lead to improved financial flexibility and potentially better terms on future debt issuances. However, investors should also consider the cash outlay required and its impact on the company's liquidity position.

LUXEMBOURG, Aug. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Adecoagro S.A.

The following table sets forth the material pricing terms of the Tender Offer:

(2)

Per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase.

(3)

The amount to be paid for each US$1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase. The Total Consideration includes an Early Tender Premium of US$30.00 for each US$1,000 principal amount of Notes. In addition, Accrued Interest will be paid.















Consideration

Holders who validly tendered their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 2, 2024 (such time and date, the "Early Tender Date") and did not validly withdraw their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 2, 2024 (such time and date, the "Withdrawal Date") will be eligible to receive the Total Consideration of US$980.00 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered (the "Total Consideration"). The Total Consideration includes an Early Tender Premium of US$30.00 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered (the "Early Tender Premium").

Holders who validly tender Notes after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 19, 2024 (such time and date, the "Expiration Date") will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Premium and will therefore only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration of US$950.00 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered (the "Tender Consideration").

Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will also be paid accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes ("Accrued Interest") up to, but excluding, the applicable Settlement Date (as defined below).

Early Settlement and Final Settlement

As of the Early Tender Date, US$83,656,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes had been validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) by Holders.

Assuming satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Tender Offer, the Issuer will accept for purchase all of the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the Tender Offer at or prior to the Early Tender Date and intends to make payment in cash of an amount equal to the Total Consideration, plus Accrued Interest for all such Notes on August 6, 2024 (the "Early Settlement Date"). The Withdrawal Date of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 2, 2024 has passed and, accordingly, Notes validly tendered in the Tender Offer, including after the Early Tender Date, may not be withdrawn. 

Subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, the Issuer expects to settle all Notes not previously settled on the Early Settlement Date, if any, on or about the second business day following the Expiration Date (the Final Settlement Date"). Any references to "Settlement Date" refer to each of the Early Settlement Date and the Final Settlement Date as context may require.

Proration

The Tender Offer is not oversubscribed at the Early Tender Date. If the purchase of all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date (when combined with all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date) would cause the Issuer to accept for purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, then the Tender Offer will be oversubscribed at the Expiration Date and, assuming satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Tender Offer, the Issuer will purchase on the Final Settlement Date all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase, on a prorated basis according to the principal amount of such Notes, such that the Issuer purchases an aggregate principal amount of Notes that does not exceed the Maximum Tender Amount.

All tendered Notes not accepted will be promptly credited to the Holder's account with DTC or otherwise returned to the Holder without cost.

Conditions and Waiver

The Issuer's obligation to accept for purchase, and to pay for, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Tender Offer is conditioned upon the satisfaction or, when applicable, waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

The Issuer has the right to amend or terminate the Tender Offer at any time and to increase or decrease the Maximum Tender Amount in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law. If the Tender Offer is terminated at any time, the Notes tendered will be promptly returned to the tendering Holders without compensation or cost to such Holders and will remain outstanding. The Issuer reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to not accept any tenders of Notes for any reason. The Issuer and its affiliates reserve the absolute right, in their sole discretion, from time to time to redeem or purchase any Notes that remain outstanding after the Expiration Date through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices as they may determine, which may be more or less than the price to be paid pursuant to the Tender Offer.
