Fletcher Building moves to strengthen balance sheet and focus portfolio


Key points:

• Fletcher Building is undertaking actions to strengthen its balance sheet and better enable it to execute its

immediate and longer term strategic objectives

• Raising NZ$750m through a fully underwritten pro rata 1 for 4.46 accelerated entitlement offer (“Offer”) at

NZ$4.80 per share

• Institutional and Retail Entitlement Offers with book-builds for any shortfall

• Proceeds from the Offer will be used by the Company to repay existing debt

• Commitments obtained from the required majority of lenders to a permanent solution of the current breach

under the Syndicated Facility Agreement (“SFA”)

• New standby banking facility of NZ$500m established with ANZ, MUFG Bank and Westpac (“Standby Facility”)

• Discussions with the USPP Noteholders are ongoing and Fletcher Building’s objective and expectation is that

it will achieve a mutually acceptable outcome

• While not expected to be needed, proceeds from the Offer and Standby Facility are sufficient to redeem all

USPP Notes and pay associated costs if required.

• Key principles of group strategy approved by the board: focus activities on New Zealand and Australia, with

divestment processes to be undertaken for the Formica and Roof Tile Group businesses

• No change to estimated FY18 EBIT for the Group (excluding B+I and significant items) of NZ$680m - NZ$720m

and estimated loss for B+I of NZ$(660)m.


Auckland, April 17 2018: Fletcher Building Limited (the “Company” or “Group”) has moved to raise equity and

establish new standby debt facilities to strengthen the Company’s capital structure and better enable effective

execution of the Group’s strategy.


The Company is raising NZ$750m through a fully underwritten accelerated pro rata entitlement offer, enabling

eligible shareholders to purchase 1 share for every 4.46 they own at 9:00pm (NZ time) and 7:00pm (Sydney time) on

the Record Date for NZ$4.80 per share. This represents a 23.4% discount to the closing share price on NZX on 16

April 2018, and a 20.0% discount to the theoretical ex-rights price (TERP) of NZ$6.00. The Offer will comprise

institutional and retail entitlement offers, with any entitlements that are not taken up by eligible shareholders and

entitlements of ineligible shareholders being offered for sale in the institutional and retail book builds respectively.


In conjunction with the Offer, Fletcher Building has also established a new standby banking facility of NZ$500m with

ANZ, MUFG Bank and Westpac.


The Offer and Standby Facility will strengthen the Company’s balance sheet and better enable it to execute its

immediate and longer term strategic objectives. In particular, the Company expects that selected asset sales

processes will be able to be transacted in a way that maximises value for shareholders. Following the Offer, the

Company expects normalised leverage
1

to reduce to 1.6x, at the lower end of the Company’s revised target range of

1.5x – 2.5x.



Discussions with the USPP Noteholders are ongoing, and the Company’s objective and expectation is that it will

achieve a mutually acceptable outcome by 31 May 2018. While not expected by the Company to be needed, the

Standby Facility has been put in place to ensure that, together with the net equity proceeds of the Offer, Fletcher

Building would be able to redeem all USPP Notes and pay associated costs if required.

The decision to undertake the Offer has resulted from the Company’s strategic review, which is progressing well and

expected to be announced in full in June 2018. While work remains to be done to complete the strategic review, the

key principles have been approved by the Board. Fletcher Building will focus its activities on New Zealand and

Australia, and will therefore undertake divestment processes for its Formica and Roof Tile Group businesses.


The Group continues to trade in line with its previously estimated FY18 EBIT for the Group (excluding B+I and

significant items) of NZ$680m - NZ$720m and estimated loss for B+I of NZ$(660)m.


Ross Taylor, Chief Executive of Fletcher Building, said “An outcome of the work that we have completed to date on

the Group strategy is that it is now appropriate to strengthen our balance sheet. Reducing our net debt also provides

us with the opportunity to undertake divestment processes for Formica and the Roof Tile Group on terms that should

maximize shareholder returns.”


Commenting on today’s announcement Fletcher Building Chairman Sir Ralph Norris said “it i s important to provide

all our existing eligible shareholders with the opportunity to purchase new shares in Fletcher Building. This

acknowledges the continuing support that they have given the Company in the last 18 months, and enables them to

contribute to the repositioning of the Company as the new strategy is rolled out.”


Further information

Further details of the Offer are set out in the Appendix to this announcement. The Company has also lodged an

Investor Presentation and Offer Document with the NZX and ASX today. The Investor Presentation and Offer

Document contain important information including foreign selling restrictions with respect to the Offer.

0800 650 034 (within New Zealand) and 1800 501 366 (within Australia) or +64 9 488 8777 (outside of New Zealand or

Forward looking statements

This announcement contains forward looking statements, including statements of current intention, statements of

opinion and predictions as to possible future events. Forward looking statements should, or can generally, be

similar expressions within the meaning of securities laws of applicable jurisdictions, and include but are not limited

to the expected outcome of the various and ongoing negotiations in connection to the Offer. Indications of, and

guidance or outlook on, future earnings or financial position or performance are also forward looking statements.

Such statements are not statements of fact and there can be no certainty of outcome in relation to the matters to

which the statements relate. These forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties,

assumptions and other important factors that could cause the actual outcomes to be materially different from the

Investors should be aware that certain financial information included in this announcement including EBIT and Net

Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The disclosure of such non‐GAAP financial

measures in the manner included in this announcement would not be permissible in a registration statement under

the U.S. Securities Act. Fletcher Building believes this non‐IFRS financial information provides, and these non‐GAAP

financial measures provide, useful information to users in measuring the financial performance and conditions of

Fletcher Building. The non‐IFRS financial information and these non‐GAAP financial measures do not have a

standardised meaning prescribed by Australian Accounting Standards and applicable New Zealand accounting

standards and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other entities, nor should

they be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with Australian Accounting

Standards and applicable New Zealand accounting standards. Investors are cautioned, therefore, not to place undue

reliance on any non‐IFRS financial information or non‐GAAP financial measures and ratios included in this

announcement.

•Fletcher Building is undertaking the following actions to strengthen its balance sheet and enable a

permanent solution to its current bank and USPP positions:

−Raising NZ$750m through a fully underwritten pro rata entitlement offer (the “Offer”);

−Establishing a new standby banking facility of NZ$500m (the “Standby Facility”).

•The Company believes that a strengthened balance sheet will better enable it to execute its immediate and

longer term strategic objectives. In particular, the Company expects that selected asset sales processes will

be able to be transacted in a way that maximises value for shareholders.

•The strategic review is progressing well with key principles approved by the Board. In particular, the

Company will focus its activities on New Zealand and Australia and will therefore undertake divestment

processes for its Formica and Roof Tile Group businesses. As previously advised, the Company will provide

a detailed update and full overview of the Group’s strategy in June 2018 once the review is completed.

•In conjunction with the Offer, the Company has obtained commitments from the required majority of lenders

to a permanent solution of the current breach under the Syndicated Facility Agreement (“SFA”).

•Fletcher Building’s objective and expectation is to reach a mutually acceptable conclusion to discussions

with USPP Noteholders on terms consistent with the proposed revisions to the SFA. While not expected by

the Company to be needed, the Standby Facility has been put in place to ensure that, together with the

proceeds of the Offer, Fletcher Building would be able to redeem all USPP Notes and pay associated costs if

required.

•The Company continues to trade in line with earnings guidance: no change to estimated FY18 EBIT of

NZ$680m – NZ$720m (excluding B+I and significant items) and an estimated loss for B+I of NZ$(660)m.

While work remains to be done to complete the strategic review that the Company has been undertaking, the

Board has approved the following key principles:

•A focus of the Group’s activities on New Zealand and Australia

•In New Zealand:

–actively defending and growing the Building Products and Distribution core;

–vertically integrating around this core where this provides the Group with: competitive advantage,

stronger growth, and better outcomes for customers. As such, the Group’s positions in the Concrete

value chain and in Residential Development remain an essential part of its overall NZ strategy;

–stabilising the Construction business and returning it to sound operating performance.

•In Australia:

–improving the performance of the Australian businesses through greater focus, synergies and

investment, such that the Company can maintain and grow leading positions in the Building Products

and Distribution core.

•This focus on New Zealand and Australia means the Company will undertake divestment processes for its

Formica and Roof Tile Group businesses.

between the underlying businesses

•A move to a leaner and more efficient centre

•A reset of our capital structure, as discussed further in this presentation

As previously advised, the Company will provide a detailed update and full overview of the Group’s strategy in

June 2018 once the review is completed.

•The Company intends that this update will provide details on any restructuring costs associated with the

intended organisational and cost out changes.

Capital structure strategy – summary

12

•An outcome of the Company’s strategic review is that the Company believes it is now appropriate to

strengthen its balance sheet.

•The Company believes that this will better enable it to execute its immediate and longer term

strategic objectives. In particular, the Company expects that it will enable selected asset sales

processes to be transacted in a way that maximises value for shareholders.

•Accordingly, the Company is targeting a revised through-the-cycle leverage ratio (Net Debt /

EBITDA) range of 1.5x-2.5x (previously 2.0x-2.5x).

•The net equity proceeds will return the Group’s leverage ratio on a normalised basis (excluding B+I)

to 1.6x

(1)

, hence at the lower end of the revised target range.

Fletcher Building Strategy, Capital Structure and Trading Update April 2018

Bank Syndicate Update – Syndicated Facility Agreement

13

Fletcher Building Strategy, Capital Structure and Trading Update April 2018

•Commitments have been obtained from ANZ, MUFG Bank, Westpac and HSBC on a permanent solution to

the current breach under the Syndicated Facility Agreement (‘SFA’).

•These lenders provide the necessary majority lender support for amending the SFA.

(1)

These lenders have

agreed the form of the amending documentation, with amendments conditional on completion of the

Offer

(2)

.The current intention is that the revised SFA would be entered into on conclusion of discussions with

USPP Noteholders.

•Key terms of the revised SFA that would be entered into are:

−Size and maturity of existing facilities to remain unchanged

−Inclusion of existing separate bilateral facilities as a new tranche within the SFA

−Previously announced B+I losses to be excluded from future covenant calculations

−Revised covenants: Senior Leverage Ratio <3.25x; Senior Interest Cover >3.00x; Total Interest Cover

>2.00x

−Until the earlier of 30 June 2019 or the date on which the Senior Leverage Ratio (including the previously

announced B+I losses) is less than 1.75x for three consecutive months:

margin increases by 1.25%

(3)

;

proceeds from disposals of assets above a threshold must be offered first for repayment of Senior

Debt.

1.ANZ, MUFG Bank, Westpac, and HSBC together represent 77% of Fletcher Building’s banking syndicate. The required threshold of‘Majority Lenders’ for amending the

SFA is 60%.

2.Completion means receipt of equity proceeds of NZ$750m less any applicable transaction costs

3.After 30 June 2019 or when the Senior Leverage Ratio (including the previously announced B+I losses) is less than 1.75x for three consecutive months, pricing for two of

the four tranches reverts to pricing applicable as at December 2017 and pricing for the other two tranches reduces to current market pricing (rather than existing pricing

levels, which are below current market pricing).

Bank Syndicate Update – New Standby Facility of $500m

14

Fletcher Building Strategy, Capital Structure and Trading Update April 2018

•A new NZ$500m Standby Facility has been established with ANZ, Westpac, and MUFG Bank.

•Key terms of the Standby Facility:

−Purpose:

•May only be drawn by the Company to fund repayment of USPP Notes and associated transaction costs

−Conditions:

•Available to be drawn by the Company upon completion of the Offer

(1)

•Proceeds of the Offer must be applied in repayment of USPP Notes before amounts can be utilised under

the Standby Facility

•If the Standby Facility is drawn, proceeds of material asset sales must be used for repayment of the

Standby Facility on a pro rata basis with USPP Noteholders, and proceeds of issue of equity or debt

securities (other than the Offer) must be used for repayment of the Standby Facility

−Term:

•If drawn, the Standby Facility will be available until at least January 2020

•If not required by the Company, the Company may terminate the Standby Facility on two business days’

notice

1.If the Offer is not completed by 31 May 2018, ANZ, Westpac and MUFG Bank have the right to cancel the Standby Facility

USPP Noteholder update

15

1.Noteholders representing 50.1% of the Notes under each Note and Guarantee Agreement are required to approve the amendments to such Note and Guarantee

Agreement.

2.Noteholders representing 60% of the Notes under each Note and Guarantee Agreement are required to demand repayment of the Notes under each Note and

Guarantee Agreement.

3.The Offer is fully underwritten. However, the underwriter may terminate its obligations on the occurrence of a number of events, including those set out in the Offer

Document. Net equity proceeds is after payment of the transaction costs of the Offer.

4.Transaction costs would be dependent on the level of Notes redeemed, if any. Costs associated with full repayment of the USPP Notes are currently estimated at up to

NZ$125m.

Fletcher Building Strategy, Capital Structure and Trading Update April 2018

•Discussions with the USPP Noteholders are ongoing and Fletcher Building’s objective and expectation is that

it will achieve a mutually acceptable outcome in the negotiations with the USPP Noteholders. It is anticipated

by Fletcher Building that this process will be completed by 31 May 2018.

•The Company will be presenting USPP Noteholders with a proposal to achieve a permanent waiver of the

current breach of the USPP Note and Guarantee Agreements. This proposal will be on terms generally

consistent with the proposed revisions to the SFA.

(1)

−Should Noteholders wish to reduce their level of holdings the proposal may also include a tender offer for

some portion of the existing Notes.

•If discussions with USPP Noteholders are not successfully completed prior to expiry of the existing waiver on

31 May 2018, the required majority of USPP Noteholders could demand repayment of their Notes.

(2)

•While Fletcher Building does not expect this to occur, the net equity proceeds of NZ$725m

(3)

together with

the Standby Facility will ensure that Fletcher Building is able to redeem all USPP Notes and pay associated

costs if required.

Basis and purpose of pro forma financial information

16

Key assumptions:

•The pro forma financial information presents the assumed impact of the proposed equity raising as if it had occurred on 31 March 2018.It has been

assumed that the equity raising of NZ$750m is applied to repay bank debt of $714m and to cover the estimated transaction costs of the Offer of

NZ$25m, with the remainder assumed to be held as cash.

•The assumption in the pro forma financial information is therefore a 0% redemption of USPP Notes. Dependent on the outcome of discussions with

USPP Noteholders, a part or all of the net equity proceeds could be applied to redeem USPP Notes. Transaction costs associated with the redemption

of USPP Notes would be dependent on the level of Notes redeemed, if any. Costs associated with full repayment of the USPP Notesare currently

estimated at up to NZ$125m.

•The assumption in the pro forma financial information is that there is no conversion of institutional capital notes to equity.

Basis of preparation:

•The Group has presented the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2017 together with certain non-GAAP financial information. Such

financial information has been sourced from the Group’s Half Year financial statements which were approved on 21 February 2018.We have provided

an explanation of relevant Non-GAAP information below.

•The Group has prepared unaudited pro forma financial information as at 31 March 2018 basedon unaudited management accounts of the Group in

order to provide investors with the latest available information to better illustrate the impact of the proposed equity raising on the financial position of the

Group. The financial information presented has been prepared on a basis consistent with the recognition and measurement principles as disclosed by

the Group in its Statement of Accounting Policies contained within the 30 June 2017 Annual Report, and the 31 December 2017 HalfYear Financial

Statements. The accounting policies adopted by the Directors are in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in New Zealand, which

is the New Zealand equivalent to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS). They are also in accordance with International Financial

Reporting Standards.

•The following Non-GAAP information has been presented:

–EBIT – Last 12 months Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Significant Items and losses of the B+I Business Unit

–EBITDA – Last 12 months Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, Amortisation, Significant Items and losses of the B+I Business Unit

The following is a summary of the statutory rights of rescission or to damages, or both, available to purchasers in Ontario. In Ontario, every purchaser of the Entitlements or the New Shares purchased pursuant

to the Offer Document (other than (a) a "Canadian financial institution" or a "Schedule III bank" (each as defined in NI 45-106), (b) the Business Development Bank of Canada or (c) a subsidiary of any person

referred to in (a) or (b) above, if the person owns all the voting securities of the subsidiary, except the voting securitiesrequired by law to be owned by the directors of that subsidiary) shall have a statutory right of

action for damages and/or rescission against Fletcher Building if this presentation or any amendment thereto contains a misrepresentation. If a purchaser elects to exercise the right of action for rescission, the

purchaser will have no right of action for damages against Fletcher Building. This right of action for rescission or damagesis in addition to and without derogation from any other right the purchaser may have at

law. In particular, Section 130.1 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that, if this presentation contains a misrepresentation, a purchaser who purchases the Entitlements and the New Shares during the period

of distribution shall be deemed to have relied on the misrepresentation if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchaseand has a right of action for damages or, alternatively, may elect to exercise a right of

rescission against Fletcher Building, provided that (a) Fletcher Building will not be liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased such securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for

damages, Fletcher Building is not liable for all or any portion of the damages that Fletcher Building proves does not represent the depreciation in value of such securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied

upon; and (c) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which such securities were offered.

Section 138 of the Securities Act (Ontario) provides that no action shall be commenced to enforce these rights more than (a) in the case of any action for rescission, 180 days after the date of the transaction that

gave rise to the cause of action; or (b) in the case of any action, other than an action for rescission, the earlier of (i) 180 days after the purchaser first had knowledge of the fact giving rise to the cause of action or

(ii) three years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action. These rights are in addition to andnot in derogation from any other right the purchaser may have.

Certain Canadian income tax considerations

Prospective purchasers of the Entitlements and the New Shares should consult their own tax adviser with respect to any taxes payable in connection with the acquisition, holding or disposition of such securities

as any discussion of taxation related matters in this presentation is not a comprehensive description and there are a number of substantive Canadian tax compliance requirements for investors in the Provinces.
