United Rentals Announces Redemption of 5½% Senior Notes due 2027
United Rentals, Inc. (NYSE:URI) ("URI") today announced that its subsidiary, United Rentals (North America), Inc. ("URNA"), has given notice of its intention to redeem all of the outstanding $500 million principal amount of its 5½% Senior Notes due 2027 (CUSIP Number 911365 BF0) (the "Notes") on December 24, 2025 (the "Redemption Date"). The Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price (the "Redemption Price") of 100.00% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
URNA has instructed Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as the trustee for the Notes (the "Trustee"), to distribute a notice of redemption to all registered holders of the Notes on November 24, 2025. Copies of such Notice of Redemption and additional information relating to the procedure for redemption of the Notes may be obtained from the Trustee by calling 1-800-344-5128.
URNA expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from its offering of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2033 (the "New Notes"), which is expected to close December 1, 2025, to redeem the Notes. Pending usage of such net proceeds to redeem the Notes, URNA may use such net proceeds to reduce borrowings under either its asset based revolving credit facility or accounts receivable securitization facility, in which case URNA expects to borrow under its asset based revolving credit facility or accounts receivable securitization facility, as applicable, to fund the redemption of the Notes.
The redemption is subject to, and conditioned upon, (i) the completion by URNA of an issuance of at least $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior notes no later than the Redemption Date on terms and conditions satisfactory in all respects to URNA in its sole and absolute discretion and (ii) sufficient funds being available to be drawn by URNA under its asset based revolving credit facility and/or accounts receivable securitization facility at the time URNA is required to deposit the Redemption Price with the Trustee to fund the payment of the Redemption Price and such funds being disbursed when requested by URNA. The Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as the conditions precedent shall be satisfied. In the event that such conditions precedent have not been so satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed, URNA will notify the Trustee, and upon any such notice, the notice of redemption shall be rescinded and be of no force or effect for any purpose.
