Insights

Post Holdings' tender offer for its 5.625% Senior Notes due 2028 is a strategic move to refinance its debt. The company is offering to buy back up to $475 million of these notes at $1,008.84 per $1,000 principal amount, which includes a $50 early tender premium. This price represents a slight premium to par value, incentivizing noteholders to participate.

The high participation rate, with $760.9 million tendered exceeding the maximum amount, indicates strong investor interest. This oversubscription will result in proration at 62.47%, potentially disappointing some investors who won't be able to tender all their notes. The company's decision not to increase the tender amount suggests a careful balance between debt reduction and cash management.

This refinancing could potentially lower Post's interest expenses, depending on the terms of the new senior notes offering mentioned. However, the impact on the company's overall financial health will depend on the new debt's interest rate and maturity profile.

Post Holdings' tender offer is a proactive debt management strategy. By refinancing $475 million of its 5.625% notes, the company is likely aiming to optimize its capital structure. The timing suggests Post is taking advantage of current market conditions to potentially secure more favorable terms on new debt.

The 62.47% proration rate due to oversubscription indicates strong demand for the tender offer. This could be seen as a vote of confidence from bondholders in Post's credit quality. However, it's important to note that the company is funding this repurchase with a new senior notes offering, essentially replacing old debt with new.

The key factors to watch will be the interest rate and maturity of the new notes. If Post can secure a lower interest rate or extend maturities, this could improve its debt profile and potentially free up cash flow for other corporate purposes. Overall, this move demonstrates Post's active approach to liability management.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Post Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:POST) (the "Company" or "Post") today announced the consideration payable, as set forth in the table below, for the previously announced cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase up to $475.0 million in aggregate principal amount (subject to increase, the "Maximum Tender Amount") of its 5.625% senior notes due 2028 (the "Notes").

The consideration of $1,008.84 per $1,000 principal amount (the "Early Tender Consideration") for Notes that were validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time (as defined below) and are accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer was determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 8, 2024 (as it may be amended or supplemented, the "Offer to Purchase"), by reference to the fixed spread for the Notes (the "Fixed Spread") specified in the table below, plus the yield to maturity based on the bid-side price of the U.S. Treasury Reference Security specified in the table below as quoted on the Bloomberg Reference Page specified in the table below at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, and is inclusive of the early tender premium (the "Early Tender Premium") set forth in the table below.

The Early Tender Consideration for the Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time (defined below) and accepted for purchase is calculated using the Fixed Spread and is inclusive of the Early Tender Premium.

Only holders of Notes who validly tendered their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 21, 2024 (the "Early Tender Time") are eligible to receive the Early Tender Consideration. In addition to the Early Tender Consideration, holders whose Notes are purchased in the Tender Offer will receive accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date.

Since the principal amount of Notes tendered as of the Early Tender Time exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, the Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be subject to proration as described in the section "The Terms of the Tender Offer—Maximum Tender Amount; Priority of Acceptance; Proration" of the Offer to Purchase using a proration rate of approximately 62.47%. The Company does not anticipate accepting for purchase any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time.

The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to pay for Notes that are validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time, and that are accepted for purchase, on a date following the Early Tender Time and prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 6, 2024, or any other date and time to which the Company extends the Tender Offer (such earlier date, the "Early Settlement Date"). The Company anticipates that the Early Settlement Date will be August 23, 2024, the second business day after the Early Tender Time, subject to all conditions to the Tender Offer, including that the Company has received proceeds from a senior notes offering sufficient (determined in the Company's sole discretion) to fund the purchase of the Notes, having been satisfied or waived by the Company.

All other terms and conditions of the previously announced Tender Offer, including without limitation the withdrawal deadline of August 21, 2024, remain unchanged and are as set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

This press release shall not constitute, or form part of, an offer to sell, a solicitation to buy or an offer to purchase or sell any securities. The Tender Offer is being made only pursuant to the Offer to Purchase and only in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

From time to time after completion of the Tender Offer, the Company or its affiliates may purchase additional Notes in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, through tender or exchange offers or other methods, or the Company may redeem Notes pursuant to their terms.
