PR Newswire

FORT WAYNE, Ind., Sept. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Steel Dynamics, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ/GS: STLD) announced today that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 12, 2017 (the "Expiration Time"), it had received tenders from holders of $182,872,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"), representing approximately 52% of the outstanding 2022 Notes, in connection with the Company's previously announced cash tender offer (the "Offer").

The Company expects to recognize aggregate pretax charges of approximately $15 million, related to tender and call premiums and the associated write-off of non-cash deferred bond fees and other associated expenses.

The Company has made payments with respect to any 2022 Notes accepted for purchase on September 13, 2017.  For each $1,000 principal amount of 2022 Notes tendered on or before the Expiration Time, the Company paid $1,035.63 plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Additionally, the Company announced today that it has called for redemption all of its remaining 2022 Notes that were not purchased in connection with the Offer.  The redemption date for the remaining outstanding 2022 Notes will be October 13, 2017. The redemption price for the remaining outstanding 2022 Notes will be at 103.188%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. On and after the redemption date, the 2022 Notes will no longer be deemed outstanding, interest will cease to accrue thereon and all rights of any remaining holders of 2022 Notes will cease to exist, except for the right to receive the redemption price, without interest thereon. The notice of redemption containing information required by the terms of the indenture, dated as of August 16, 2012, as supplemented and amended, governing the 2022 Notes, was sent to registered holders of the 2022 Notes on September 13, 2017. The 2022 Notes are to be surrendered to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee and paying agent, in exchange for payment of the redemption price on the redemption date.
