RSI will not offer any shares or receive proceeds from the sale but will bear associated costs except for underwriting discounts and commissions. Wells Fargo Securities and Morgan Stanley are serving as lead book-running managers for the offering.
Concurrent with the offering, RSI plans to repurchase 1,153,846 shares from underwriters at the same price paid to selling stockholders under its existing stock repurchase program. The company will fund the repurchase with cash on hand and cancel the repurchased shares.
Following the repurchase, RSI's existing stock repurchase plan will be replaced with a new $100 million stock repurchase plan approved by the company's Board of Directors.
The offering is being conducted under a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC. RSI operates online casino and sports betting platforms across 15 U.S. states and several international markets including Colombia, Ontario, Mexico and Peru.
