Kodiak Gas Services Announces Public Offering of Common Stock by Selling Stockholder |
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, November 14, 2024 – Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. (NYSE: KGS) (“Kodiak” or the “Company”) today announced the commencement of an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 4,853,556 shares of its common stock by an affiliate of the funds known as EQT Infrastructure III and EQT Infrastructure IV (the “selling stockholder”). The selling stockholder intends to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 728,034 shares of the Company’s common stock. Kodiak will not sell any shares of its common stock in the Offering and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of its common stock being offered by the selling stockholder. The Offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the Offering may be completed.
In addition, the Company intends to purchase from the selling stockholder in a private transaction $15 million of common stock at a price per share equal to the public offering price (the “Share Repurchase”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of shares of common stock to be offered in the Offering will be equal to 6,000,000 shares less the number of shares the Company would repurchase based on the public offering price. The Offering is not conditioned upon the closing of the Share Repurchase, but the Share Repurchase is conditioned upon the closing of the Offering. The Share Repurchase is being made pursuant to the Company’s existing $50.0 million share repurchase program. On November 14, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, beginning on the date thereof and continuing through and including December 31, 2025. After the completion of the Share Repurchase described above, there will be $35.0 million remaining under the Company’s share repurchase program.
Barclays, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan are acting as joint book-running managers for the Offering. The Offering will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus, which was filed as part of an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-280737), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and became effective on July 10, 2024.
