General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (“GM Financial”) is offering $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Floating Rate Notes due 2023 (the “Floating Rate Notes”), $850,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.250% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”), and $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.850% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes” and, together with the Floating Rate Notes and the 2023 Notes, the “Notes”). The Floating Rate Notes will bear interest at a rate, reset quarterly, equal to three-month LIBOR plus 0.990%. Interest will accrue on the Floating Rate Notes from January 5, 2018, and GM Financial will pay interest on the Floating Rate Notes quarterly on January 5, April 5, July 5 and October 5 of each year, beginning on April 5, 2018. The Floating Rate Notes will mature on January 5, 2023. Interest will accrue on the 2023 Notes and the 2028 Notes from January 5, 2018, and GM Financial will pay interest on the 2023 Notes and the 2028 Notes semi-annually on January 5 and July 5 of each year, beginning on July 5, 2018. The 2023 Notes will mature on January 5, 2023 and the 2028 Notes will mature on January 5, 2028. We may not redeem the Floating Rate Notes prior to maturity. At our option, we may redeem either or both series of the 2023 Notes and the 2028 Notes offered hereby, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time before their maturity at the redemption prices set forth under “Description of the Notes—Optional Redemption.”
The Notes will be guaranteed by our principal United States operating subsidiary, AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (“AFSI” or the “guarantor”), on a senior unsecured basis and, under certain circumstances, will be guaranteed by certain of our other subsidiaries. Our currently outstanding 6.75% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Existing 2018 Notes”) mature on June 1, 2018, and when, among other things, such notes are discharged, as anticipated, on or before the stated maturity date, all guarantees of the Notes (including the AFSI guarantee) will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged. See “Description of the Notes.”
The Notes will be our and the guarantor’s unsecured senior obligations. The Notes will rank equal in right of payment with all of such entities’ existing and future senior indebtedness, including guarantees, and will rank senior in right of payment to all of such entities’ existing and future subordinated indebtedness; however, the Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our and the guarantor’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The Notes will also be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes with respect to the assets of such entities.
Investing in the Notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-8 of this prospectus supplement.
