Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.
escrow accountfinancial
An escrow account is a neutral holding account run by an independent third party where cash, shares, or documents are kept until specific contract conditions are met — like a referee holding the ball until both teams agree the play is fair. Investors care because escrows reduce counterparty risk in deals (mergers, stock purchases, property transactions), ensuring payments or assets are released only when agreed terms are satisfied.
special mandatory redemptionfinancial
A special mandatory redemption is a contractual obligation that forces a company to repay certain debt or preferred shares early when a specific trigger event occurs (for example, a change in tax law, regulatory change, or sale). For investors it matters because it ends the expected income stream and returns principal at a pre-set price, potentially altering returns, tax outcomes and a company’s cash needs — like a lender calling a loan back when rules change.
Rule 144Aregulatory
Rule 144A is a regulation that makes it easier for companies to sell private bonds to large investors without going through all the usual rules that apply to public sales. It matters because it helps companies raise money more quickly and privately, often attracting big investors looking for special deals.
Regulation Sregulatory
Regulation S is a set of rules that allows companies to sell securities (like shares or bonds) to investors outside the United States without having to follow all U.S. securities laws. It matters because it makes it easier for companies to raise money from international investors while still complying with U.S. regulations.
RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CACI International Inc (NYSE: CACI), or the Company, announced today that it has commenced an offering (the “Offering”) of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes due 2033 (the “notes”). The notes will be issued as part of the same series as the Company’s 6.375% senior notes due 2033 originally issued in June 2025. CACI intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with borrowings under its revolving credit facility, proceeds of the incremental term loan B facility and cash on hand (and borrowings under a bridge facility, if needed), to pay all or a portion of the purchase price of the Company’s acquisition of ARKA Group L.P. (the “Acquisition”) and to pay associated costs and expenses.
If the Acquisition is not consummated simultaneously with the Offering, the Company will, upon consummation of the offering of the notes, cause the gross proceeds to be deposited into an escrow account for the benefit of the trustee and the holders of the notes pending the consummation of the Acquisition. The notes are subject to a special mandatory redemption at 100% of principal plus accrued interest if the Acquisition is not completed under the related purchase agreement. If the issuance of the notes occurs on the closing date of the Acquisition, the gross proceeds of the Offering will be provided to the Company on the closing date to fund the Acquisition and to pay associated costs and expenses.
The notes are being offered in the United States only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), as amended, and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States only in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security, nor shall there be any sale of the notes or any other security of CACI, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
