TFI INTERNATIONAL ANNOUNCES PRICING OF PUBLIC OFFERING
Shares to start trading on NYSE on February 13
Montreal, Quebec, February 12, 2020 – TFI International Inc. (TSX: TFII; OTCQX: TFIFF), a North American leader in the transportation and logistics industry, today announced the pricing of its previously-announced marketed offering of 6,000,000 common shares in the United States and Canada, representing TFI International’s initial public offering in the United States. TFI International will issue the shares at a price of US$33.35 per share, the equivalent of CAD $44.20 per share based on today’s Bank of Canada exchange rate, for gross proceeds of US$200,100,000. The offering is expected to close on February 18, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions.
TFI International’s common shares are scheduled to start trading on February 13 on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol “TFII.” TFI International’s common shares will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “TFII”.
The public offering is being conducted through a syndicate of underwriters led by Morgan Stanley, BofA Securities, J.P. Morgan and Credit Suisse as joint lead book-running managers, with RBC Capital Markets and UBS Investment Bank as joint-bookrunners and Cowen, National Bank of Canada Financial, Stephens Inc., Stifel and Wolfe Capital Markets and Advisory as co-managers.
TFI International expects to use the net proceeds from the offering to reduce the amount outstanding under one of its credit facilities, thereby increasing the amount available under the credit facility for future use by TFI International. TFI International may use the credit facility in the future for working capital and general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions.
TFI International has also granted the underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares, representing 15% of the number of shares to be sold pursuant to the public offering, solely to cover the underwriters’ over-allocation position, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The option is exercisable by the underwriters for a period of 30 days following the closing of the offering.
In connection with the public offering, TFI International has filed a preliminary prospectus supplement and will file a final prospectus supplement to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 12, 2018. The preliminary prospectus supplement was filed, and the final supplement will be filed, with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada as well as with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as part of a registration statement on Form F-10, as it may be amended from time to time, under the U.S.-Canada multijurisdictional disclosure system (MJDS).
The public offering is being made in Canada only by means of the base shelf prospectus and prospectus supplement and in the United States only by means of the registration statement, including the base shelf prospectus and prospectus supplement.
