NEW YORK(BUSINESS WIRE)May 21, 2024Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY) (Coty), one of the worlds largest beauty
companies with a portfolio of iconic brands across fragrance, color cosmetics, and skin and body care, today announced that it, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, HFC Prestige Products, Inc. and HFC Prestige International U.S. LLC (the Co-Issuers and collectively with Coty, the Issuers), launched an offering of 500 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the Notes), subject to
market and customary conditions. The interest rates and other key terms of the Notes will be determined at the time of pricing.
