New Issue: Horizon Global prices upsized $110 million convertibles due 2022 at 2.75%, up 35%

New York, Jan. 26 – Horizon Global Corp. priced an upsized $110 million of five-year convertible senior notes with a 2.75% coupon and a 35% initial conversion premium.

The deal was increased from the originally announced $100 million and came at the rich end of talk for a yield of 2.75% to 3.25% and richer than talk for a premium of 27.5% to 32.5%.

Concurrently, Horizon Global priced 4 million shares of common stock at $18.50 per share.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities LLC, BofA Merrill Lynch and BMO Capital Markets are the joint bookrunners for the convertibles.

The notes have a $15 million over-allotment option, unchanged from the size initially planned.

The notes are contingently convertible into cash, common stock or a combination.

Proceeds from the convertibles and stock will be used to repay $157.5 million of Horizon Global’s term loan, a paydown increased by $147.5 million due to the upsizing.

Remaining funds raised from the convertibles will be used to pay for convertible note hedge transactions.

Horizon Global is a Troy, Mich.-based designer, manufacturer and distributer of a range of towing, trailering, cargo management, and other related accessory products to the automotive aftermarket, retail, and original equipment channels worldwide.
