EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Oct. 19, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Landmark Infrastructure Partners LP (Nasdaq:LMRK) (the “Partnership”) announced today the closing of its previously announced underwritten public offering of 3,450,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”) at a public offering price of $16.30 per Common Unit, which includes 450,000 Common Units issued pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Common Units.

After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses, net proceeds to the Partnership are approximately $53.3 million. The Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the purchase price for the previously announced acquisition by the Partnership of 100% of the equity interests in certain entities that own approximately 4,000 acres of land in California from Recurrent Energy Landco LLC, a subsidiary of Canadian Solar Inc. (the “Recurrent Transaction”). Until the Partnership applies the net proceeds for the purposes described above, it may repay indebtedness under its revolving credit facility or invest the proceeds in short-term liquid investments. If the Recurrent Transaction is not consummated, then the Partnership intends to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
