Century Communities, Inc. (NYSE: CCS), a leading national homebuilder, today announced that it has launched a private offering (the “Offering”) of $400 million aggregate principal amount of new Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The terms and timing of pricing of the Notes are subject to market conditions and other factors. The Notes are expected to be guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by certain of the Company’s current and future subsidiaries, including substantially all of its domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, plus cash on hand, to redeem (the “Redemption”) all $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.875% Senior Notes due 2025 outstanding (the “2025 Senior Notes”). Consummation of the Offering of the Notes and the Redemption of the 2025 Senior Notes are subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully complete these transactions on the terms described above, or at all.
The offer and sale of the Notes and the related guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes or any other security, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the Notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.
The Company also announced today that it has delivered a conditional notice of redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) calling for the redemption, on September 2, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”), of all of the outstanding 2025 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 102.938% of the principal amount of the 2025 Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The Company’s obligation to redeem the 2025 Senior Notes is conditioned upon the prior consummation of the Offering and the issuance of the Notes on or prior to the Redemption Date. The Company will publicly announce and notify the holders of, and the trustee for, the 2025 Senior Notes if the condition is not satisfied or waived prior to the Redemption Date, whereupon the Redemption will be revoked and the 2025 Senior Notes will remain outstanding. U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee for the 2025 Senior Notes and is serving as the paying agent for the Redemption.
The Redemption of the 2025 Senior Notes is being made solely pursuant to the Redemption Notice, and this press release does not constitute an offer to purchase or redeem, or a solicitation of an offer to sell, the 2025 Senior Notes.
