Item 8.01. Other Events
Stillwater Mining Company (“Stillwater”) announced today that it has priced its previously announced offering of $345.00 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2032 (the “notes”). Stillwater has also granted the underwriters of the notes a 30-day over-allotment option to purchase up to $51.75 million additional aggregate principal amount of the notes (subject to certain limitations). The notes will mature on October 15, 2032, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The notes will bear interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum, which will be payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 15 and October 15 of each year beginning on April 15, 2013.
Stillwater intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay amounts that may come due under Stillwater’s outstanding 1.875% convertible debentures in March 2013, and any additional proceeds may be used for general corporate purposes.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering, which is being made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and hereby incorporated by reference.
