Savers Value Village, Inc. (the “Company”) today announced that its subsidiaries, Evergreen AcqCo 1LP (the “Issuer”) and TVI, Inc. (the “Co-Issuer,” and together with the Issuer, the “Issuers”), intend to offer $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2028 (the “Notes”) in a private offering.

The net proceeds from the Notes offering, together with cash on their balance sheet, are expected to be used to: (i) permanently prepay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the existing first lien term loan facility (the “First Lien Term Loan Facility”), (ii) pay a dividend to the Company’s shareholders, (iii) pay one-time bonuses to certain of the Company’s employees and (iv) pay certain related fees and expenses.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and outside the United States to non-U.S. Persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, nor will there be any sale of the Notes in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
