Anacomp Announces $200 Million Senior Subordinated Debt Offering SAN DIEGO, March 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Anacomp, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANCO), a leader in information delivery systems and services, today announced an offering pursuant to Rule 144A of $200 million 10-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004 priced at 98.2071%. NatWest Capital Markets Limited is acting as the sole lead manager of the offering. Anacomp will use the net proceeds from the new notes for the redemption of its existing $172 million face amount of 13% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2002; approximately $5 million of accrued interest relating to the existing notes; a 3% call premium of approximately $5 million for the redemption; the reduction of $10 million of a $25 million interest-bearing trade credit facility provided by SKC America, Inc. (SKC); and approximately $5 million of offering fees and expenses. As a result of the refinancing, Anacomp will record an extraordinary $17 million charge to income in its fiscal third quarter related to the discharge of the indebtedness. Most of this charge is related to the fact that the existing senior subordinated notes were recorded at a discount. The company plans to redeem the existing notes in early April, following the required notice period to note holders. The offering and the redemption are contingent upon final approval by Anacomp's senior lenders and by SKC, both of which are expected. The new 10-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and they may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration. However, Anacomp intends to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the near future, and upon effectiveness of the registration statement will exchange the privately placed senior subordinated notes for substantially identical publicly registered senior subordinated notes. Serving customers throughout the world, Anacomp provides products and services that manage corporate information throughout its life cycle. SOURCE Anacomp, Inc.
