TPI Composites Prices Upsized $115 Million Convertible Senior Notes Offering
February 28, 2023
Scottsdale, Az.—TPI Composites, Inc. (“TPI”) (Nasdaq: TPIC) announced today the pricing of its offering of $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% convertible senior notes due 2028 (the “notes”) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offering was upsized from the previously announced offering size of $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of notes. In addition, TPI granted the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an additional $17.5 million aggregate principal amount of the notes. The offering is expected to close on March 3, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.
The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of TPI and will accrue interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2023. The notes will mature on March 15, 2028, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Before September 15, 2027, noteholders will have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. From and after September 15, 2027, noteholders may convert their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. TPI will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“common stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at TPI’s election. The initial conversion rate is 66.5425 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $15.03 per share of TPI’s common stock. The initial conversion price represents a premium of approximately 30% above the last reported sale price of TPI’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on February 28, 2023, which was $11.56 per share.
The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.
The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at TPI’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2026 and prior to the 51st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, if the last reported sale price per share of TPI’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Contemporaneously with the pricing of the notes, TPI entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers of the notes or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce or offset potential dilution to TPI’s common stock upon any conversion of notes and/or offset any cash payments TPI is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.
The cap price of the capped call transactions will initially be $23.12 per share of TPI’s common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of TPI’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on February 28, 2023, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.
