Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 26, 2024, Addus HomeCare Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. and Jefferies LLC, acting as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 1,500,000 shares (the “Firm Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price to the public of $108.00 per share before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 225,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) on the same terms as the Firm Shares.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $153 million, or approximately $176 million if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase the Option Shares, in each case after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company intends to use approximately $81.4 million of the net proceeds it receives from the Offering for the repayment of all indebtedness outstanding under its credit facility and the remainder for general corporate purposes, including the Company’s previously announced acquisition of the personal care assets of Gentiva and any future acquisitions or investments. There were no selling stockholders in the offering. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about June 28, 2024, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Offering is being conducted pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3ASR (Registration No. 333-267253) and a related prospectus and prospectus supplement, in each case filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company, as well as customary indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, the Company and its officers and directors have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock held by them for a period ending 60 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of BofA Securities, Inc. and Jefferies LLC.

The Underwriting Agreement has been filed as an exhibit hereto. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of the Underwriting Agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Underwriting Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

A copy of the legal opinion and consent of Bass Berry & Sims PLC, counsel to the Company, with respect to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Firm Shares and the Option Shares in the Offering is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 8.01
