LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. ('Hudson Pacific' or the 'Company') (NYSE: HPP) today announced it has commenced a $600 million underwritten public offering of shares of its common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of its common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company intends to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $90 million of common stock at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. All of the securities to be sold in the offering will be offered by the Company. The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering.
In addition, Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (the 'Investor') on behalf of its clients' accounts, has indicated an interest in purchasing $300 million in the aggregate of shares of the Company's common stock at the public offering price and pre-funded warrants, exercisable for shares of the Company's common stock, in this offering. Because this indication of interest is not a binding agreement or commitment to purchase, the Investor may determine to purchase more, fewer or no shares of the Company's common stock or pre-funded warrants in this offering or the underwriters may determine to sell more, fewer or no shares of the Company's common stock or pre-funded warrants to the Investor.
Hudson Pacific plans to contribute the net proceeds from this offering to its operating partnership, which intends to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility, repay other indebtedness and/or for general corporate purposes. Pending these applications, the Company's operating partnership intends to invest the net proceeds from this offering in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities in a manner that is consistent with its intention to qualify for taxation as a real estate investment trust.
The lead joint book-running managers for the offering are BofA Securities, Wells Fargo Securities and RBC Capital Markets.
