DENTON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SBH) announced today the results to date of its previously-announced cash tender offers (the “Tender Offers”) to purchase up to $100,000,000 in aggregate purchase price (as it may be increased by Sally Beauty, the “Tender Cap”) of 5.625 percent Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) and 5.500 percent Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes” and, together with the 2025 Notes, the “Notes”), in each case issued by its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries Sally Holdings, LLC and Sally Capital Inc. (collectively, “Sally Beauty”).

In addition, Sally Beauty also announced that it is extending the date by which Holders must tender to receive the Total Consideration (as defined below) to midnight, New York City time, at the end of March 18, 2019, unless extended or earlier terminated by Sally Beauty (the “Expiration Date”).

According to information received from Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Information and Tender Agent for the Tender Offer, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 4, 2019, (the “Early Tender Date”), approximately $57.3 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes, and approximately $2.2 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes, has been validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Tender Offers.

The terms and conditions of the Tender Offers are described in an Offer to Purchase, dated February 19, 2019 (the “Offer to Purchase”). The withdrawal deadline of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 4, 2019 has passed and, accordingly, Notes validly tendered in the Tender Offers may no longer be withdrawn except where additional withdrawal rights are required by law.

Holders whose Notes were validly tendered and not withdrawn at or before the Expiration Date will be eligible to receive the applicable total consideration, which includes an early tender payment of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (such consideration, along with such early tender payment, the “Total Consideration”). The settlement for Notes tendered prior to the Early Tender Date is expected to take place on March 6, 2019, (the “Early Settlement Date”) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase under the heading “Terms of the Offers – Conditions of the Offers.” The settlement for Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date and at or prior to the Expiration Date is expected to take place on March 20, 2019, (the “Final Settlement Date”) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase under the heading “Terms of the Offers – Conditions of the Offers.”

The principal amount of each series of Notes that is purchased on the Early Settlement Date and Final Settlement Date will be determined in accordance with the acceptance priority levels and the proration procedures described in the Offer to Purchase; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, Notes tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase in priority to Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date, even if such Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date have a higher acceptance priority level than Notes tendered prior to the Early Tender Date.

The Tender Offers will expire on the Expiration Date. No tenders submitted after the Expiration Date will be valid.

No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
