B&G Foods, Inc. (NYSE:BGS) announced today its intention to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% senior notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notes will be issued as additional notes under the same indenture as B&G Foods’ 5.25% senior notes due 2025 that were originally issued on April 3, 2017 and, as such, will form a single series and trade interchangeably with such previously issued notes. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries of B&G Foods.

B&G Foods intends to use the proceeds of the offering to repay all of the outstanding borrowings under B&G Foods’ revolving credit facility and to pay related fees and expenses. B&G Foods intends to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which could include, among other things, repayment of other long term debt or possible acquisitions. However, there can be no assurances that the offering of the Notes will be completed as described herein or at all.
