Qorvo Inc of Greensboro, NC, USA (which provides core technologies and RF solutions for mobile, infrastructure and defense applications) is proposing to offer an additional $100m of its 5.50% senior notes (due 2026) to qualified institutional buyers and to certain non-US persons. The firm completed the offering of the initial $500m of the notes on 16 July.
Qorvo expects to use the net proceeds of the offering of additional notes, together with cash on hand or borrowings under its credit facility, to finance a tender offer to purchase up to $130m of its 7.00% senior notes due 2025.
The additional notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Qorvo and will be initially guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of Qorvo’s existing and future direct and indirect wholly owned US subsidiaries that guarantee Qorvo’s obligations under its existing credit facility.
The additional notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the USA absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
