AECOM (NYSE: ACM), a premier, fully integrated global infrastructure firm, announced today the pricing of its offering of US $1 billion in aggregate principal amount of its senior notes due 2027 (the “senior notes”). The senior notes will pay interest semiannually at a rate of 5.125% and will mature on March 15, 2027, unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their terms. The senior notes will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. AECOM expects to close the sale of the senior notes on or about February 21, 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

AECOM intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the senior notes to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under its senior secured credit facilities, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

The senior notes will be issued in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Any offer of the senior notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. The senior notes are not being registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
