Retail Supplier Announces Optional Conversion Rights for Series A Preferred Stock
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by VertexOne, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
Via Renewables, Inc. ("Via Renewables" or the "Company") announced that it has provided notice (the "Notice") to holders of its 8.75% Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock") of an optional limited change of control conversion right (the "Conversion Right"), available at the option of the holder, for $8.07 per share in cash.
As a result of the closing of the previously reported merger contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of December 29, 2023, by and among the Company, Retailco, LLC, a Texas limited liability company ("Parent"), and NuRetailco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company (the "Merger"), holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock are provided an optional Conversion Right.
As described in the Notice, the Conversion Right provides holders with an option to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock into $8.07 per share in cash. The Conversion Right is optional at the holder’s election. A holder may choose to exercise its Conversion Right in whole or in part, or may elect not to exercise its Conversion Right at all, in which case the holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock will remain outstanding. The closing price of the Series A Preferred Stock on June 26, 2024 was $24.04 per share.
Holders will have until July 26, 2024 to exercise their Conversion Right, and the Company expects to settle any exercises on the third business day thereafter, or July 31, 2024.
