21 Feb 2020capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor

CRC launched private exchange offers asking holders of its 8% second lien notes due 2022, 5 1/2% notes due 2021 and 6% notes due 2024 to swap them for new term loans due 2028 with CRC warrants, or for royalty notes and shares in Elk Hills RoyaltyCo. Supporting holders also agreed to take warrants for up to 3,447,184 CRC shares at $9.25 each, if the offers close. This is an attempt to cut debt outside court, and the warrants would dilute existing shareholders. The offers were followed by the July 2020 Chapter 11 filing, so it is an inference that they did not complete as planned.
