Analysis · ALH · Technology
BDT Badger Holdings, the controlling stockholder, is selling 20.5 million shares (up to 23.575 million with the overallotment) in a secondary offering. The company will simultaneously repurchase $75 million of its own stock from the underwriters at the offering price. The company receives no proceeds from the stock sale; the repurchase is funded with cash on hand. The offering is underwritten by BofA, J.P. Morgan, and BDT & MSD — an affiliate of the selling stockholder — creating a disclosed conflict of interest. This transaction reduces the principal stockholder's ownership while providing a partial offsetting buyback, and the 90-day lock-up restricts further sales by insiders.
