On May 12, 2021, Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its plans to offer, subject to market and other conditions, senior notes that are expected to be issued in two tranches (the “Notes”). The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured debt. A copy of the press release is being furnished with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the Notes offering to redeem, prior to maturity, its outstanding 3.20% Senior Notes due February 1, 2022 and 3.75% Senior Notes due August 23, 2022.
The joint book-running managers for the offering are BofA Securities, KeyBanc Capital Markets, and Wells Fargo Securities. The offering will be made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-234633) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 12, 2019. A copy of the prospectus and related prospectus supplement may be obtained without charge from the SEC. Alternatively, a copy of the prospectus and related prospectus supplement may be obtained from BofA Securities by calling toll-free 1-800-294-1322, from KeyBanc Capital Markets by calling toll-free 1-866-227-6479, or from Wells Fargo Securities by calling toll-free 1-800-645-3751.
This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The offering of these securities may be made only by means of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.
