SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- GoDaddy Inc. (NYSE: GDDY) ("GoDaddy") today announced that its subsidiaries, Go Daddy Operating Company, LLC and GD Finance Co, Inc. (the "Issuers"), intend to offer, subject to market and other considerations, $800 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the "Notes") through an offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers and are expected to be guaranteed by the same entities that guarantee obligations under the Issuers' existing credit facility, including Desert Newco, LLC and certain subsidiaries of the Issuers. The interest rate, redemption provisions, maturity date and other terms of the Notes will be determined by negotiations between GoDaddy and the initial purchasers.
GoDaddy intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures and potential acquisitions and strategic transactions.
This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
