Trump announces trade deal with EU following months of negotiations
DENVER - Civitas Resources, Inc. (NYSE: CIVI), an independent oil and gas company currently valued at $2.65 billion, announced its intention to offer $500 million in senior unsecured notes due in 2032. This private placement aims to attract qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. persons, subject to market conditions and in accordance with securities regulations.
The proceeds from the offering are expected to be used to repay a portion of the company’s existing debt under its revolving credit facility. With a current debt-to-equity ratio of 0.76 and short-term obligations exceeding liquid assets, this refinancing could be crucial for the company’s financial structure. The notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and will be issued based on an exemption from these requirements. Civitas specified that the securities could not be sold within the United States or to U.S. persons without registration or an applicable exemption. According to InvestingPro, the company maintains a "GOOD" overall financial health score despite these challenges.
Civitas Resources operates in the energy sector, focusing on the development and production of crude oil and natural gas in the Permian Basin and the DJ Basin. The company emphasizes its strategy of generating free cash flow, maintaining a strong balance sheet, returning capital to shareholders, and upholding environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles. This strategy has resulted in impressive financial metrics, including a substantial 10.5% dividend yield and a free cash flow yield of 33%. InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently undervalued, with additional insights available in the comprehensive Pro Research Report.
