Park Hotels & Resorts Inc Announces Closing of $550 Million of 7.000% Senior Notes Due 2030
May 16 2024 - 4:31PM
Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“Park” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PK)
announced today that certain of its subsidiaries, Park Intermediate
Holdings LLC (the “Operating Company”), PK Domestic Property LLC
(“PK Domestic LLC”) and PK Finance Co-Issuer Inc. (together with
the Operating Company and PK Domestic LLC, the “Issuers”),
completed the previously announced offering of $550 million
aggregate principal amount of 7.000% senior notes due 2030 (the
“Notes”). The Notes will pay interest semi-annually in arrears, at
a rate of 7.000% per year, and will mature on February 1, 2030. The
Notes are guaranteed by Park, PK Domestic REIT Inc. and certain
subsidiaries of the Operating Company that guarantee the Company’s
credit agreement and existing senior notes due 2025, 2028, and
2029.
The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds of
the offering, together with the proceeds of a new $200 million
unsecured term loan that was incurred pursuant to an amendment to
the Company’s existing credit agreement (the “Term Loan”) to (i)
purchase all $650 million of the Issuers’ 7.500% Senior Notes due
2025 (the “2025 Notes”) that were validly tendered and accepted for
purchase pursuant to the Issuers’ previously announced concurrent
cash tender offer for any and all 2025 Notes (the “Tender Offer”)
and to redeem any 2025 Notes not tendered in the Tender Offer and
(ii) pay related fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
offering, the Tender Offer and the redemption, with any remaining
net proceeds used for general corporate purposes.
Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr., Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, stated, “I am extremely pleased with the
execution of this offering, which, together with the Term Loan
proceeds, increases our liquidity position to $1.4 billion and
demonstrates our ability to access multiple debt markets to achieve
our objectives to extend maturities and provide for more
flexibility for our balance sheet. Upon full repayment of the 2025
Notes we will have no meaningful maturities until 2026.”
The Notes and the related guarantees were not
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The Notes and the
guarantees were not offered or sold in the United States except
pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to,
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws. The Notes and the guarantees were offered
only to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional
buyers” in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by
Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons
in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act.
This press release does not constitute an offer
to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities and
shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer
to buy, or a sale of, the Notes or any other securities in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to, statements related to the effects of Park’s
decision to cease payments on its $725 million non-recourse CMBS
loan secured by the 1,921-room Hilton San Francisco Union Square
and the 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco – a Hilton Hotel and the
lender’s exercise of its remedies, including placing such hotels
into receivership, as well as Park’s current expectations regarding
the performance of its business, financial results, liquidity and
capital resources, including anticipated repayment of certain of
its indebtedness (including the 2025 Notes), the completion of
capital allocation priorities, the expected repurchase of Park’s
stock, the impact from macroeconomic factors (including inflation,
elevated interest rates, potential economic slowdown or a recession
and geopolitical conflicts), the effects of competition, the
effects of future legislation or regulations, the expected
completion of anticipated dispositions, the declaration, payment
and any change in amounts of future dividends and other
non-historical statements. Forward-looking statements include all

“may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “projects,” “predicts,”
“intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates”, “hopes” or the
negative version of these words or other comparable words. You
