ENERGIZER HOLDINGS, INC. Announces Debt Refinancing Activity, Extending Maturity Profile

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Energizer Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ENR) today announced the pricing of its Senior Notes offering and Term Loan add-on.

The Company priced $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2033 at par (the "Notes"), representing an increase from the announced offering size of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes. The Notes will be guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, by certain of the Company's domestic restricted subsidiaries.

The Company also completed a $100 million add-on to the existing Term Loan maturing in 2032. The Term Loan will continue to bear an interest rate equal to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 200 basis points per annum.

The transactions are leverage neutral and are expected to extend the Company's debt maturity profile and reduce interest expense. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes and Term Loan add-on to redeem all of the Company's outstanding 6.50% Senior Notes due 2027, including payment of any premiums, fees, costs, and expenses associated therewith, repay amounts due on the Revolving Credit Facility, and for general corporate purposes.

Both transactions are expected to close on or around September 22, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of applicable conditions.

The Notes and related guarantees are being offered for sale to qualified institutional buyers in an offering of Notes exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Notes and related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
