Blue Owl (NYSE:OWL), which completed its combination with Altimar Acquisition Corp. in May 2021, announced the results of the redemption of its outstanding redeemable warrants.
Pursuant to the amended Warrant Agreement, Blue Owl redeemed its warrants for a redemption price of $0.10 per Public Warrant at 5:00 p.m. EST on August 18, 2022. The redemption was triggered due to the last sales price of the Class A Shares reaching at least $10.00 per share on each of twenty trading days within a thirty-day trading period ending on the third trading day prior to July 18, 2022.
Of the 14,159,048 warrants that were outstanding on July 18, 2022, approximately 14,553 were exercised for cash at $11.50 per share in exchange for 14,553 Class A Shares and 8,961,029 were exercised on a cashless basis in exchange for 2,141,601 Class A Shares. Blue Owl was able to generate $171,185 in total proceeds from the exercises of the public warrants. Following the redemption, the company expects to have zero public warrants, 5 million private placement warrants and 442,117,260 of Class A Shares outstanding.
