Initial Public Offering

 

On August 8, 2017, we completed our IPO of 26,105,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), which includes 3,405,000 Ordinary Shares issued upon the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares, at a public offering price of $20.00 per share. All of the Ordinary Shares were sold by Huntsman, and we did not receive any proceeds from the offering. The Ordinary Shares began trading August 3, 2017 on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “VNTR.” In conjunction with the IPO, the Company assumed the Titanium Dioxide and Performance Additives businesses of Huntsman and the related assets, liabilities and obligations and operations. After the IPO, the Company operates in two segments, Titanium Dioxide and Performance Additives. Following the IPO, Huntsman owns approximately 75% of Venator’s outstanding Ordinary Shares. The material terms of the IPO are described in the Prospectus.

 

Senior Credit Facilities and Senior Notes

 

On August 8, 2017, in connection with the IPO and our separation from Huntsman, we entered into new financing arrangements and incurred new debt, including borrowings of $375 million under a new senior secured term loan facility with a maturity of seven years (the “Term Loan Facility”). In addition to the Term Loan Facility, we entered into a $300 million asset-based revolving lending facility with a maturity of five years (the “ABL facility” and, together with the term loan facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). On July 14, 2017, in connection with the IPO and the Separation, our subsidiary Venator Finance S.à.r.l. along with Venator Materials LLC, a related party, issued $375,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% of Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”).
