Ampco-Pittsburgh (AP) Explores Potential Rights Offering

June 2, 2020 4:32 PM EDT

Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (NYSE: AP) (the “Corporation”) announced today that it is contemplating a rights offering that would, when initiated, involve the issuance to its shareholders (as of a future record date) of a dividend of rights and potential over-subscription rights to purchase shares of its capital stock (“Shares”) and potentially other securities. The Corporation is considering offering any or all of the following securities: common stock, dividend yielding preferred stock, warrants and/or dividend yielding convertible preferred stock. The offering of the securities would be made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

​In a rights offering shareholders as of the record date would receive a right, but not the obligation, to purchase Shares and potentially other securities during a to-be-determined exercise period. Shareholders as of the record date would also receive over-subscription rights to purchase additional securities beyond their pro rata percentage ownership.

"We are exploring a potential rights offering to raise additional capital to accelerate our restructuring efforts, improve overall liquidity, and reduce indebtedness. If we proceed with this offering, our shareholders will have the first opportunity to purchase additional securities to maintain or increase their current percentage ownership in our company," said Brett McBrayer, Ampco-Pittsburgh’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Corporation has engaged RHK Capital to gauge feedback and interest for the contemplated rights offering from institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers. Please contact RHK Capital at [email protected] to discuss potential terms of the rights offering. The Corporation welcomes feedback from institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers as it tests the waters on the contemplated rights offering.
