Dubai, Oct. 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vantage Drilling International Ltd.
(the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a purchase
agreement for the issuance of $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of
9.500% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2028 at a 97% issue price. The
issuance follows the successful completion of the Vessel Sale announced by the
Company in the stock exchange notice on October 31, 2024, from which the Company
will use the net proceeds to redeem $184,855,000 aggregate principal amount of
the Company's 9.500% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2028 at par, plus
accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption is expected to be completed on
November 29, 2024 (the "redemption date") and the new issuance is expected to
occur in early December 2024.
The newly issued notes are a key part of Vantage's plan to maintain a strong
balance sheet and ensure sufficient liquidity until the expected sale of the
Tungsten Explorer to the joint venture with TotalEnergies in 2025 ('Tungsten
Explorer Vessel Sale'). The Company will repay the notes at par, plus accrued
and unpaid interest once the Tungsten Explorer Vessel Sale is completed.
The transaction is part of Vantage's ongoing efforts to optimize its capital
structure and enhance its liquidity position, aligning with its long-term growth
objectives in the global drilling industry.
