By Paul Deckelman

New York, Nov. 2 – Constellium NV priced an upsized $500 million offering of senior notes and €400 million of senior notes, both due in February 2026 (B3/B-), according to market sources.

The dollar-denominated portion of that two-part bond deal was upsized from an originally announced $450 million while the euro-denominated tranche was unchanged

The dollar-denominated notes priced at par to yield 5 7.8%.

The euro-denominated notes priced at par to yield 4¼%

The was brought to market via a large and complex consortium of underwriters.

Deutsche Bank was the left bookrunner for both tranches of the Rule 144A and Regulation S transaction.

Credit Suisse, BofA Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Wells Fargo Securities were also bookrunners for the dollar-denominated notes, while Credit Suisse, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Credit Mutual and HSBC were also bookrunners for the euro-denominated portion.

Both tranches will be non-callable for three years and then become callable at par plus 50% of their respective coupons.

Both tranches have a three-year equity clawback provision for up to 35% of the issue.

Amsterdam-based Constellium, a maker of rolled and extruded aluminum products, plans to use the proceeds from the notes, along with funds from an offering of class A ordinary shares and cash on hand, to fund tender offers for its $425 million of 7 7/8% senior secured notes due 2021, its €250 million of 7% senior notes due 2023 and its $400 million of 8% senior notes due 2023 and to redeem any notes that remain outstanding after the tender offers, which will end on Nov. 6.
