APA Infrastructure Limited Initiates Cash Tender Offer
On September 16, 2025, APA Infrastructure Limited, an Australian corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of APA Group Limited, declared the pricing of its significant cash tender offer. This tender offer aims to purchase up to
$425 million in aggregate principal amount of its
4.25% Senior Guaranteed Notes that are due in
2027.
Details of the Offer
The tender offer was formally outlined in an
Offer to Purchase document dated September 2, 2025, which provides comprehensive information regarding the tender and its terms. Stakeholders are encouraged to carefully review this document before making any decisions concerning the tender offer. Specific terms and conditions can be accessed online at
APA's Offer Page.
In conjunction with the offer, which is available under the conditions set forth, the company expects to accept
$396.37 million in senior notes validly tendered prior to the early tender deadline. The early tender deadline is crucial, as bondholders who submit their notes before this time will qualify for the Early Tender Offer Consideration, which offers a distinct financial incentive compared to submissions made after this date.
Financial Incentives
Bondholders participating in this offer before the early tender deadline can expect the following considerations:
- - Early Tender Offer Consideration: $1,004.11 per $1,000 of notes validly tendered.
- - Bonds tendered after the deadline will instead receive the regular Tender Offer Consideration of $974.11.
Both options will also include accrued interest payments up to the applicable settlement dates. The
Early Settlement Date is scheduled for
September 18, 2025, while the tender offer will expire at
5:00 PM New York City time on
September 30, 2025.
Managerial Oversight
To manage the tender offer, APA has appointed
Merrill Lynch International and
The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited as dealer managers. For inquiries related to the offer, investors can reach out to these institutions or the Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the designated information agent.
