CHARLOTTE, N.C., September 11, 2014 – EnPro Industries, Inc. (NYSE: NPO) (“EnPro”) today announced it priced its previously announced offering of its senior notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”). The face value of the Senior Notes is $300 million with an annual interest rate of 5.875%. The Senior Notes were priced at 99.215% of their face value. The offer was made in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Senior Notes offering is expected to close on September 16, 2014.
EnPro intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering of the Senior Notes to repay borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility made to fund the purchase of any and all of $74.78 million in aggregate principal amount of its 3.9375% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2015 (the “Convertible Debentures”) validly tendered, and accepted for purchase, pursuant to a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) that EnPro commenced on August 11, 2014.
EnPro intends to apply the remaining net proceeds to repay all remaining borrowings and accrued interest outstanding under its senior secured revolving credit facility, to pay fees and expenses related to the offering and the Tender Offer and for other general corporate purposes, which may in the future include retiring any Convertible Debentures not purchased in the Tender Offer.
