Exhibit 99.1
Cision Ltd. Announces Amendment to Registration Statement For its Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation Relating to its Warrants
CHICAGO, May 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cision (NYSE: CISN) announced today that it has filed an amendment (the "Amendment") to its Registration Statement originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 17, 2018, registering ordinary shares of Cision issuable as part of Cision's previously announced exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") and consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation") relating to certain of its outstanding warrants. Cision filed the Amendment in order to, among other things, update the Registration Statement to include its unaudited financial and related information for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The terms of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation are unchanged except as expressly set forth in the Amendment.
The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation will be open until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 15, 2018, or such later time and date to which Cision may extend, as described in the Schedule TO and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange (the "Expiration Date"). Tendered warrants may be withdrawn by holders at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Cision's obligation to complete the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation is not conditioned on the receipt of a minimum number of tendered warrants.
Cision has engaged Citigroup Global Markets Inc. as the Dealer Manager for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. Any questions or requests for assistance concerning the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation may be directed to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at (212) 723-7450. D.F. King & Co., Inc. has been appointed as the Information Agent for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company has been appointed as the Exchange Agent.
Important Additional Information Has Been Filed with the SEC
Copies of the Schedule TO/A and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange are available free of charge at the website of the SEC at www.sec.gov. Requests for documents may also be directed to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at (212) 723-7450.
A registration statement on Form S-4 relating to the securities to be issued in the Exchange Offer has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. Such securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective.
This announcement is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell the warrants or an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any ordinary shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful before registration or qualification under the laws of any such state. The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation are being made only through the Schedule TO and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, and the complete terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation are set forth in the Schedule TO and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange. Holders of the warrants are urged to read the Schedule TO and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange carefully before making any decision with respect to the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation because they contain important information, including the various terms of, and conditions to, the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. None of Cision, or any of its management or its board of directors, or the Information Agent, the Exchange Agent or the Dealer Manager makes any recommendation as to whether or not holders of warrants should tender warrants for exchange in the Exchange Offer or consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation.
