STORE Capital Announces Underwriters Full Exercise of Option to Purchase Additional Shares
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 14, 2016 - STORE Capital Corporation (NYSE: STOR), an internally managed net-lease real estate investment trust (REIT) that invests in Single Tenant Operational Real Estate, today announced that STORE Holding Company, LLC (the Selling Stockholder), a stockholder affiliated with Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., has completed the sale of an additional 3,000,000 shares of STORE Capitals common stock in connection with the full exercise by the underwriter of its option to purchase additional common stock from the Selling Stockholder; the shares were sold as part of the previously announced secondary offering of STORE Capitals common stock by the Selling Stockholder. STORE Capital did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock sold by the Selling Stockholder.
Through their recent share sales and our continuing growth, Oaktree, our founding institutional shareholder, has lowered its stake in STORE to less than 24% of our total shares outstanding. As a result, our Board will be comprised of a majority of independent directors fulfilling the requirement of non-controlled companies by the New York Stock Exchange. With their most recent sales of shares, Oaktree will be entitled to appoint two of our nine directors, down from five directors just six months ago. These changes have been long expected and are an important evolution in our transition from a privately held concern to a seasoned public company, said Christopher Volk, Chief Executive Officer.
Goldman, Sachs & Co. acted as sole underwriter for the offering.
A shelf registration statement (including a prospectus) relating to these securities has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and has become effective. The offering of these securities was made only by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus, which are on file with the SEC. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
