World Kinect Corporation Announces Proposed Offering of $250 Million Convertible Senior Notes due 2028

MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–World Kinect Corporation (NYSE:WKC) (“World Kinect” or “the Company”) announced today that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $250 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the “notes”) in a private offering. The notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). World Kinect also expects to grant to the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an additional $37.5 million aggregate principal amount of the notes.

World Kinect intends to use the net proceeds from the offering (i) primarily for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of the amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility, (ii) to pay the cost of the convertible note hedge transactions described below (after such cost is partially offset by the proceeds to World Kinect from the sale of the warrant transactions described below), and (iii) to repurchase up to $50 million worth of World Kinect common stock (“common stock”) from purchasers of the notes in this offering. This repurchase of common stock could affect the market price of the common stock concurrently with, or shortly after, the pricing of the notes, and could result in a higher effective conversion price for the notes. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes, World Kinect expects to enter into additional convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions, and intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of any such additional notes to pay the costs of such additional convertible note hedge transactions (which would be partially offset by the proceeds to World Kinect from the sale of additional warrant transactions). World Kinect intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the sale of such additional notes for general corporate purposes, including repayment of additional amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

The notes will be World Kinect’s senior, unsecured obligations. The notes are expected to pay interest semiannually in arrears and to mature on July 1, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. World Kinect will satisfy any conversion elections by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted, and paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of the common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the common stock, at World Kinect’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of its conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted. The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the notes will be determined by negotiations between World Kinect and the initial purchasers of the notes.

In connection with the pricing of the notes, World Kinect expects to enter into privately negotiated convertible note hedge agreements with certain of the initial purchasers of the notes or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the “hedge counterparties”). The convertible note hedge transactions will cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of common stock that initially underlie the notes, and are expected to reduce the potential dilution to the common stock and/or offset potential cash payments in excess of the principal amount upon conversion of the notes.

Henry Schein Donates Health Care Products to Support Special Olympics Healthy Athletes^® Screenings at Special Olympics World Games Berlin 2023

With This Donation, The Company Promotes Wellness and Health Education for Athletes with Intellectual Disabilities Around The World

MELVILLE, N.Y. & BERLIN & LANGEN, Germany–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC), the world’s largest provider of health care solutions to office-based dental and medical practitioners, will support the Special Olympics Healthy Athletes® screenings at the Special Olympics World Games, that take place from 17 to 25 June 2023 in Berlin, Germany, by donating a range of oral health and medical products essential to overall health and wellness. The Healthy Athletes program offers health screenings and education to participating Special Olympics athletes with the goal of promoting healthy lifestyle choices and identifying problems that may need additional follow-up care.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230620284688/en/

Henry Schein has supported Special Olympics since 2018 donating essential health care products to support programs in the United States, Canada, Germany, Israel, Jamaica, and the United Kingdom. Through this partnership, the Company has been named a Special Olympics health provider partner.

According to Special Olympics, an organization recognized by the International Olympic Committee, people with intellectual disabilities are frequently among the most medically vulnerable populations in any country, despite severe need and higher health risks.

“Thanks to our long-term partnership with Henry Schein and their continuous contribution of health care products to our Healthy Athletes program, we were able to strengthen our ability to provide the high-quality health screenings that our athletes need while also drawing attention to the health issues faced by people with intellectual disabilities,” said Annemarie Hill, Special Olympics Senior Vice President, Global Health Operations. “Henry Schein and Special Olympics share the belief that all people deserve quality health care regardless of their differences.”

Henry Schein’s donations will be used during the Special Olympic World Games for screenings in five of the Healthy Athletes disciplines, including Special Smiles, which provides athletes with comprehensive oral health care information, free dental screenings, instructions on proper brushing and flossing techniques, and if needed, a referral to a dental care provider at home trained to treat people with intellectual disabilities. Henry Schein’s donations also support Fit Feet (podiatry), FUNFitness (physical therapy), Health Promotion (prevention and nutrition), and Strong Minds (emotional health).

“Advancing health equity and expanding access to care for those in need closely aligns with our belief in the power of wellness, prevention, treatment, and education,” said Jennifer Kim Field, Chief Sustainability Officer at Henry Schein. “We believe that overall health and oral health are closely connected. Knowing that people with intellectual disabilities are often at higher risk for additional health limitations, we are encouraged that this program provides convenient access to optimum health care. We are honored to once again join with Special Olympics and support a program that enables health professionals to help set athletes with intellectual disabilities on the path to a lifetime of good overall health.”

Since its inception in 1997, Healthy Athletes has delivered over two million free health screenings and trained over 300,000 health care professionals, clinical volunteers, and students in using adapted screening protocols and in communicating effectively with people with intellectual disabilities. These trainings also aid in building the health care community’s capacity to serve the needs of people with intellectual disabilities outside of Special Olympics events, as providers take these skills back to their practices and provide higher quality health care to people with intellectual disabilities – not just Special Olympic athletes – in their communities.

The donations to Special Olympics Healthy Athletes are an initiative of Henry Schein Cares, the company’s global corporate social responsibility program.
