AAR Prices Offering of $955 Million of 7.125% Senior Notes Due 2031 and $960 Million of 7.375% Senior Notes Due 2034
The aerospace supplier said the notes will help finance its pending MRO Holdings acquisition and related refinancing needs.
On Monday, AAR CORP., the leading parts, repair, and software platform in the aviation aftermarket, priced $955 million of 7.125% senior notes due 2031 and $960 million of 7.375% senior notes due 2034.
AAR intends to use proceeds from the offering, combined with common stock placement and credit facility borrowings, to finance its pending acquisition of MRO Holdings, Inc.
If the acquisition is not finalized before the offering closes, proceeds will be held in "Escrow Accounts" and the notes will be subject to special mandatory redemption at initial issue price.
The offering is expected to close on November 17, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, with AAR targeting that date to finalize the transaction structure.
Proceeds will refinance MRO Holdings' existing credit agreement, terminating all commitments and releasing liens securing those obligations, streamlining the acquired company's debt structure.
