Energizer Holdings, Inc. Announces Completion of $800 Million Senior Notes Offering and Satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent to the Full Redemption of Outstanding 6.375% Senior Notes Due 2026

ST. LOUIS, September 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Energizer Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ENR) (the “Company”) today announced the successful completion of its previously announced private offering of $800 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.375% senior notes due 2029 (the “New Notes”) in a private offering, subject to market and other customary conditions. The New Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, by certain of the Company’s domestic restricted subsidiaries.

The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the New Notes, together with cash on hand, to (i) fund the redemption of the 2026 Notes (as defined below) and (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the redemption of the 2026 Notes and the offering of the New Notes. Pending application of the net proceeds for the purposes set forth in this paragraph, the Company has deposited the net proceeds in a segregated, interest-bearing bank account maintained by the Company.

Concurrently with the offering of the New Notes, the Company issued a notice of conditional redemption to redeem in full the $750 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The Company today notified the trustee for the 2026 Notes that the conditions to the conditional redemption have been satisfied and the redemption of the 2026 Notes will occur on October 16, 2020.

The New Notes and related guarantees were offered for sale to qualified institutional buyers in an offering of senior notes exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The New Notes and related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
