Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALRM) (“Alarm.com”), the
leading platform for the intelligently connected property, today
announced that it intends to offer, subject to market conditions
and other factors, $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of
Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “notes”) in a private
placement (the “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”).
Alarm.com also intends to grant the initial purchasers of the notes
an option to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and
including, the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an
additional $56.25 million aggregate principal amount of notes.
The notes will be general unsecured obligations of Alarm.com and
will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears. Upon
conversion, Alarm.com will pay or deliver, as the case may be,
cash, shares of Alarm.com’s common stock or a combination of cash
and shares of Alarm.com’s common stock, at its election. The
interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the notes
will be determined at the time of pricing of the offering.
Alarm.com expects to use the net proceeds from the offering to
pay the cost of the capped call transactions described below, to
repurchase up to $75.0 million of its common stock concurrently
with the pricing of the offering in privately negotiated
transactions as described below and for general corporate purposes,
which may include acquisitions or strategic investments in
complementary businesses or technologies, although Alarm.com does
not currently have any plans for any such acquisitions or
investments, other repurchases of its common stock from time to
time under its existing or any future stock repurchase program,
repurchases of its 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026
Notes”) from time to time following the offering or the repayment
of the 2026 Notes at maturity, and working capital, operating
expenses and capital expenditures. If the initial purchasers
exercise their option to purchase additional notes, Alarm.com
expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the
additional notes to enter into additional capped call transactions
with the option counterparties as described below and the remainder
from the sale of the additional notes for other general corporate
purposes as described above.
In connection with the pricing of the notes, Alarm.com expects
to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions with
one or more of the initial purchasers or affiliates thereof and/or
other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The
capped call transactions will cover, subject to customary
adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the notes,
the number of shares of Alarm.com’s common stock initially
underlying the notes. The capped call transactions are generally
expected to reduce the potential dilution to Alarm.com’s common
stock upon any conversion of notes and/or offset any cash payments
Alarm.com is required to make in excess of the principal amount of
converted notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or
offset subject to a cap.
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the
capped call transactions, Alarm.com expects the option
counterparties or their respective affiliates will enter into
various derivative transactions with respect to Alarm.com’s common
stock and/or purchase shares of Alarm.com’s common stock
concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the notes. This
activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the
market price of Alarm.com’s common stock or the notes at that
time.
In addition, the option counterparties or their respective
affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or
unwinding various derivatives with respect to Alarm.com’s common
stock and/or purchasing or selling Alarm.com’s common stock or
other securities of Alarm.com in secondary market transactions
following the pricing of the notes and prior to the maturity of the
notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period
related to a conversion of notes or, to the extent Alarm.com
exercises the relevant election under the capped call transactions,
following any repurchase or redemption of the notes). This activity
could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market
price of Alarm.com’s common stock or the notes, which could affect
the ability of a holder of notes to convert the notes and, to the
extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to
a conversion of notes, this could affect the number of shares, if
any, and value of the consideration that a holder of notes will
receive upon conversion of its notes.
As discussed above, Alarm.com intends to use up to $75.0 million
of the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase shares of its
common stock. Alarm.com expects to repurchase such shares from
purchasers of notes in privately negotiated transactions with or
through one of the initial purchasers or its affiliate concurrently
with the pricing of the offering (the “share repurchases”), and
Alarm.com expects the purchase price per share of its common stock
repurchased in such share repurchases to equal the closing price
per share of its common stock on the date of the offering. These
share repurchases could increase, or reduce the size of any
decrease in, the market price of Alarm.com's common stock,
including concurrently with the pricing of the notes, resulting in
a higher effective conversion price for the notes. No assurance can
be given as to how much, if any, of Alarm.com's common stock will
be repurchased or the terms on which it will be repurchased. This
press release is not an offer to repurchase Alarm.com's common
stock, and the offering of the notes is not contingent upon the
repurchase of Alarm.com's common stock.
The notes and any shares of Alarm.com’s common stock issuable
upon conversion of the notes have not been and will not be
registered under the Securities Act, any state securities laws or
the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so
registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and other applicable securities laws.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a
solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities nor shall
there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction
in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful
prior to the registration or qualification thereof under the
securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
