Extra Space Storage Inc. Announces Closing of Public Offering of Common Stock and Full Exercise of the Underwriters' Option to Purchase Additional Shares
SALT LAKE CITY, June 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Extra Space Storage Inc. ("Extra Space") (NYSE: EXR), a leading owner of self-storage properties, today announced the closing of an underwritten public offering of 6,325,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $68.15 per share, including 825,000 shares sold pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares. The gross proceeds from this offering are expected to be approximately $431.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by Extra Space. Wells Fargo Securities, BofA Merrill Lynch and Citigroup acted as the joint book-running managers for the offering.
Extra Space intends to use the net proceeds of this offering to partially fund its recently announced acquisition of SmartStop Self Storage, Inc. ("SmartStop"). Upon completion of the acquisition, Extra Space will own 121 SmartStop stores and will assume the property management of 43 third-party managed stores. The aggregate purchase price of the acquisition is $1.4 billion, consisting of $1.29 billion to be paid by Extra Space and $120 million to come from the sale of certain assets by SmartStop at or prior to the closing.
The pending acquisition is subject to the approval of SmartStop's stockholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Extra Space expects to close the acquisition in the latter half of 2015; however, there can be no assurances that these conditions will be satisfied or that the acquisition will close on the terms described, or at all.
