CALGARY,
AB, Nov. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - Crescent
Point Energy Corp. ("Crescent Point" or the "Company") (TSX: CPG)
(NYSE: CPG) is pleased to announce that it has completed its
previously announced bought deal public offering of Crescent Point
common shares ("Common Shares") through a syndicate of underwriters
co-led by BMO Capital Markets and RBC Capital Markets (collectively
the "Underwriters"). Crescent Point issued 48,550,000 Common Shares
at a price of CDN$10.30 per Common
Share (the "Offering Price"), for gross proceeds of approximately
CDN$500 million (the "Offering").
Crescent Point has also granted the Underwriters an
over-allotment option (the "Over-Allotment Option") to purchase, on
the same terms and conditions of the Offering, up to an additional
15 percent of the Common Shares issued in connection with the
Offering. The Over-Allotment Option is exercisable, in whole or in
part, by the Underwriters at any time (and from time to time) up to
and including 30 days after closing of the Offering. If the
Over-Allotment is fully exercised the maximum gross proceeds raised
under the Offering will be approximately CDN$575 million.
Crescent Point intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering
to partially fund the cash portion of the consideration payable in
connection with the acquisition of Hammerhead Energy Inc., an oil
and liquids-rich Alberta Montney
producer for total consideration of approximately CDN$2.55 billion (the "Transaction"), which was
announced on November 6, 2023. If the
Transaction is not completed, Crescent Point intends to use the net
proceeds from the Offering to reduce existing indebtedness, finance
future growth opportunities including acquisitions, finance its
capital expenditures or for other general corporate purposes.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor will there be
any sale of these securities, in any jurisdiction in which such
offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration
or qualification under the securities laws of any such
jurisdiction.
The Common Shares have been offered to the public through the
Underwriters and their affiliates by way of a prospectus supplement
(the "Prospectus Supplement") to Crescent Point's short form base
shelf prospectus dated November 3,
2023 (the "Prospectus") filed with the securities regulatory
authorities in each of the provinces of Canada and included in its registration
