Sienna Senior Living Inc. (“
Sienna” or the
“
Company”) (TSX:SIA) announced today the launch of
a $125 million equity offering, on a bought deal basis.
Sienna has entered into an agreement with a
syndicate of underwriters (the “Underwriters”) led
by TD Securities Inc., as sole bookrunner, under which the
Underwriters have agreed to buy, on a bought deal
basis, 7,920,000 common shares of the Company (the
“Common Shares”) at a price of $15.80 per
Common Share (the “Offering Price”) for total
gross proceeds of approximately $125 million (the
“Offering”). The Company has also granted the
Underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up to an
additional 1,188,000 Common Shares at the Offering Price,
exercisable in whole or in part, for a period of 30 days following
closing of the Offering (the “Over-Allotment
Option”). If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in
full, the gross proceeds to the Company will be approximately $144
million.
Sienna intends to use the net proceeds of the
Offering, together with any net proceeds from the Over-Allotment
Option, (i) to fund the Company’s previously announced acquisitions
of Wildpine Residence, a 165-suite retirement residence in the
Ottawa suburb of Stittsville, and Cawthra Gardens, a 192-bed Class
A long-term care home in Mississauga, Ontario (collectively, the
“Acquisitions”); and (ii) for general corporate
purposes, which include financing strategic growth initiatives such
as future acquisition opportunities.
Wildpine Residence is a 165-suite retirement
residence in Stittsville, Ontario, offering modern independent
living and assisted living options with stabilized occupancy. The
Company has agreed to acquire Wildpine Residence for a purchase
price of approximately $48.0 million. The Company expects to
partially fund the acquisition through the assumption of
approximately $25.0 million of Canada Mortgage and Housing
Corporation insured debt, with the remainder funded through the net
proceeds of the Offering. Sienna is acquiring this property at a
capitalization rate of 6.25%. Cawthra Gardens is a 192-bed Class A
long-term care home in Mississauga, Ontario. Built in 2003, the
home offers modern amenities for residents to enjoy, as well as the
option for private and semi-private suites. The Company has agreed
to acquire Cawthra Gardens for a purchase price of approximately
$32.6 million. Cawthra Gardens is expected to be funded through the
net proceeds of the Offering. Sienna is acquiring this property at
a capitalization rate of 6.75%. The Acquisitions will be completed
at a significant discount to replacement cost and are expected to
be immediately accretive to Sienna’s AFFO per share.
The remaining net proceeds of the Offering,
together with any net proceeds from the Over-Allotment Option, will
also provide Sienna with enhanced balance sheet flexibility as it
continues to evaluate attractive acquisition opportunities in its
target markets that fit strategically with its stated growth
objectives. Sienna remains committed to its prudent capital
allocation approach of investing in strategic growth projects that
are accretive to AFFO per share. Sienna currently has a meaningful
acquisition pipeline with multiple properties currently in various
stages of negotiation under non-binding letters of intent.
Completion of the Acquisitions are subject to
customary closing conditions for transactions of this nature,
including the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals,
including approvals from the Ontario Retirement Homes Regulatory
Authority and the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care. Future
acquisition opportunities, including Sienna's acquisition pipeline,
are subject to ongoing review and change.
The Common Shares will be issued pursuant to a
prospectus supplement that will be filed by no later than February
24, 2025 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) with the securities
regulatory authorities in all provinces and territories of Canada
under the Company's short form base shelf prospectus dated November
29, 2024 (the “Base Shelf Prospectus”). The Offering is expected to
close on or about February 27, 2025, subject to customary
regulatory approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock
Exchange.
