Talos Energy announced that its subsidiary Talos Production has priced an offering of $800 million in aggregate principal amount of new 8.000% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2034. The net proceeds will fund a portion of the cash consideration for a pending Gulf of America acquisition, redeem all outstanding 9.000% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2029, and pay related fees and expenses. If the acquisition is not completed by December 31, 2026, or is abandoned, $175 million of the new notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption at 100% of principal plus accrued interest. The new notes will be guaranteed by Talos and certain subsidiaries and secured on a second-priority basis by the same collateral as the company's first-priority revolving credit facility. The offering is expected to close on or about July 13, 2026.
