Summary
Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation (Wabtec) completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.900% senior notes due 2037, guaranteed jointly and severally on an unsecured basis by its subsidiary guarantors. Wabtec intends to use the net proceeds, together with borrowings under credit facilities and commercial paper, to repay its outstanding 3.45% senior notes due 2026 at their November 15, 2026 maturity.
Key points
- The notes bear interest at 5.900% per year, payable semi-annually beginning February 25, 2027, and mature on February 25, 2037.
- Wabtec may redeem the notes before November 25, 2036 at a make-whole premium, and at par plus accrued interest on or after that date.
- A change-of-control triggering event would require Wabtec to offer to purchase the notes at 101% of principal plus accrued and unpaid interest.
- The notes rank equally with Wabtec's other senior unsecured indebtedness and are subject to covenants limiting liens-secured debt and sale-leaseback transactions.
