Item 7.01.Regulation FD Disclosure.
Pricing of $1.5 Billion Senior Secured Notes Offering
On September 5, 2024, TransDigm Group Incorporated (“TransDigm Group”) priced the previously announced offering of $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) by TransDigm Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Issuer”). The Notes will be issued at 100.00% of their principal amount. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on September 19, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be guaranteed by TransDigm Group and certain of the Issuer’s direct and indirect subsidiaries.
The Notes and related guarantees are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Regulation S under the Securities Act. 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 without registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, applicable state securities or blue sky laws and foreign securities laws.
Use of Proceeds
TransDigm Group intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes, together with the net proceeds of the new tranche L term loans that it expects to incur concurrently with the offering of the Notes pursuant to an Amendment No. 17 and Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) to its Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and cash on hand, (i) to fund a special cash dividend to the holders of its common stock in the range of $3.5 billion to $4.5 billion, (ii) to make cash dividend equivalent payments on eligible vested options under its stock option plans and (iii) for related transaction fees and expenses.
