Gulfport Upsizes Public Offering of Shares
Gulfport Energy Corporation reported the pricing of an underwritten public offering of 9,500,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $47.75 per share.
The 9,500,000 share offering represents a 2,000,000 share upsize to the originally proposed 7,500,000 share offering. The underwriters have a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,425,000 shares from Gulfport at the public offering price per share (less the underwriting discount). The offering is expected to close on April 21, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions. Net proceeds to Gulfport from the sale of the 9,500,000 shares will be approximately $436.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses. Gulfport intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with the net proceeds from its concurrent debt offering, (i) to fund its previously announced pending acquisition of Paloma Partners III, LLC, (ii) to repay the current outstanding borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility and (iii) for general corporate purposes, including the funding of a portion of its 2015 capital development plans.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. are acting as joint book-running managers in the offering.
