SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble Inc. (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced that it has priced $300 million of its 4.150% Senior Notes due 2023 and $600 million of its 4.900% Senior Notes due 2028 in an underwritten, registered public offering. Subject to customary closing conditions, the sale of the notes is expected to close on or about June 15, 2018.
Trimble estimates that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $890.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. Trimble intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering of the notes to repay the indebtedness outstanding under its 2018 interim credit facility. The remaining proceeds of this offering, together with the borrowings under its new term loan facility and additional borrowings under other credit facilities, will be used to fund the previously announced acquisition of Waterfall Holdings, Inc., through which Trimble will acquire Viewpoint, Inc., the operating company and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Waterfall Holdings, Inc. Pending the full application of the net proceeds of this offering of the notes, Trimble may elect to temporarily repay amounts outstanding under its new revolving facility and uncommitted facilities. If the acquisition of Waterfall Holdings, Inc. is not consummated, Trimble intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the 2028 notes for general corporate purposes and will redeem the 2023 notes.
The offering is not contingent upon the consummation of the acquisition of Waterfall Holdings, Inc., although the 2023 notes are subject to a special mandatory redemption if the acquisition is not consummated. The 2028 notes are not subject to a special mandatory redemption and will remain outstanding even if the acquisition is not consummated.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering.
An effective shelf registration statement, under which the Notes will be issued, was filed previously with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
