HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Crescent Energy Company (“Crescent” or the “Company”) (NYSE: CRGY) today announced the commencement of an underwritten public offering of 5,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Class A common stock is being offered by Independence Energy Aggregator L.P., the direct beneficial owner of the shares being offered and the entity through which certain unaffiliated limited partners and affiliated entities hold their interests in the Company and its subsidiary Crescent Energy OpCo LLC. The Company will not sell any shares of its Class A common stock in the offering and will not receive any proceeds therefrom. The selling stockholder expects to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 shares of Class A common stock at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, KKR Capital Markets LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and Truist Securities, Inc. are serving as joint book-running managers for the offering. The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.
Concurrently with the closing of the offering, the Company intends to purchase from PT Independence Energy Holdings LLC (“PT Independence”) an aggregate of 2,233,727 units of Crescent Energy OpCo LLC (“OpCo Units”) at a price per share equal to the price per share at which the underwriters purchase shares of Class A common stock in the offering and cancel a corresponding number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B common stock”) (the “OpCo Unit Purchase”). If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares from the selling stockholder in the offering, the Company intends to purchase a number of additional OpCo Units from PT Independence and to cancel a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock held by PT Independence in equal proportion to the number of additional shares of Class A common stock sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option. The offering of Class A common stock is not conditioned upon the completion of the OpCo Unit Purchase, but the OpCo Unit Purchase is conditioned upon the completion of the offering.
