Cabinetworks Group Announces Closing of Private Notes Exchange

NEW YORK, May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cabinetworks Group, one of the largest U.S. manufacturers of cabinets serving the repair & remodel and new construction end-markets, announced today that its affiliate ACProducts Holdings Inc. (the "Company") successfully closed a private notes exchange (the "Private Notes Exchange") and an exchange of all remaining term loans under the Company's existing senior secured term loan facility due in May 2028 for additional senior secured first lien second-out term loans due in November 2031 (the "Subsequent Term Loan Exchange"). Holders of approximately 99% of its existing unsecured notes due 2029 (the "Existing Notes") agreed to exchange, on a cashless basis, all of their Existing Notes currently outstanding into senior secured notes due 2032 (the "Third Out Notes").

The Private Notes Exchange and the Subsequent Term Loan Exchange are part of a larger series of financing transactions, announced on May 8, 2026, in which the Cabinetworks Group secured approximately $100 million of additional liquidity and extended existing maturities, supported by the vast majority of its creditors. The proceeds of the Financing Transactions were used to fund the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and pay transaction fees and expenses. The remaining proceeds will remain on balance sheet and enhance the Company's liquidity position.

Private Notes Exchanges

Holders of the Existing Notes may participate in the Private Notes Exchange on the same terms offered to the Committed Noteholders on or before June 16, 2026. Holders who would like to receive more information about the terms of the Private Notes Exchange should contact the Company at [email protected]. Subject in all respects to the Company's determination and discretion, and in respect of its right to purchase Existing Notes through open market or privately negotiated transactions:

• Additional Fungible Notes. Holders who contact Cabinetworks Group on or prior to May 26, 2026 may be eligible to receive Third Out Notes on May 29, 2026 (the "Additional Issuance Date").
