Summary
Magnolia priced its $1 billion common stock offering at $23.75 per share, a modest 0.2% discount to the last close of $23.80. The offering consists of 46.3 million shares, with a 15% underwriter option for an additional 6.9 million shares. Proceeds, alongside a concurrent senior notes issuance and revolver borrowings, will fund the cash portion of the $4.2 billion WildFire Energy acquisition announced earlier today. The tight pricing signals strong demand and minimal dilution impact, with the deal expected to close July 22.
