Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (Nasdaq: BECN) (“Beacon”) announced today the pricing of $600 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.500% senior secured notes due 2030 (the “Notes”) in connection with its previously announced private offering. The size of the Notes offering has been upsized from $500 million to $600 million.

The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Beacon Sales Acquisition, Inc. The initial offering price to investors will be 100.000% of the principal amount thereof. The offering is expected to close on July 31, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.

Beacon intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand and available borrowings under its senior secured asset-based revolving (ABL) credit facility, to (i) consummate the previously announced repurchase of all 400,000 outstanding shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible Participating Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) held by an entity affiliated with the Clayton Dubilier & Rice, LLC investment firm for an aggregate cash amount equal to $804.5 million, (ii) pay all accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the repurchase date and (iii) pay all related transaction fees and expenses. It is currently anticipated that the repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock will be consummated on, or promptly following, the closing date of the Notes offering.

The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The issuance and sale of the Notes and related subsidiary guarantee have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and the Notes and related subsidiary guarantee may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes. The Notes offering is being made only by means of a private offering memorandum and is not being made to any person in any jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation is unlawful.
