Business Wire
Sky Harbour Group Corporation (NYSE American: SKYH, SKYH WS)
(“SHG” or the “Company”), an aviation infrastructure company
building the first nationwide network of Home-Basing campuses for
business aircraft, announced it has completed the second closing of
its previously announced equity raise. The Company issued an
additional 3,955,790 PIPE shares of its Class A Common Stock in
connection with the exercise of all the rights to purchase
additional shares provided to PIPE investors who participated in
the first closing for net proceeds of approximately $37.6 million,
at a sale price of $9.50 per share. Aggregate proceeds from both
closings were approximately $75.2 million, representing the full
capacity of the equity raise.
As previously disclosed, the Company plans to issue
approximately $150 million in new private activity debt financing
in the first half of 2025. The combined proceeds of both financings
and existing cash on hand, approximately $240 million, is intended
to support phase-1 development projects at 6-7 new airport campuses
(approximately 800,000 rentable square feet), beyond the
approximately one million rentable square feet already funded. As
recently announced, the Company expects seven new ground leases by
the end of 2025, which would bring the portfolio to 23
airports.
PIPE Participants included affiliates of Altai Capital and Raga
Partners, Boulderado, the family office of SHG Board member Alex
Rozek and new long-term investors.
Tal Keinan, Sky Harbour CEO, commented: “Sky Harbour has had the
good fortune to attract truly strategic investors to its
shareholder community. We are grateful for our new partners, and
for existing partners who have increased their stakes in Sky
Harbour.”
Francisco Gonzalez, Sky Harbour CFO, commented: “We are pleased
to have been oversubscribed in the investor interest of this equity
financing. We will continue with our policy of conservative and
deliberate management of our liquidity and capital formation.”
Rishi Bajaj, Managing Principal from Altai Capital also
commented: “We are excited to be joined by an excellent group of
new long-term investors who are equally enthusiastic about Sky
Harbour's progress and future pipeline.”
