GLOBAL IMAGING SYSTEMS COMPLETES SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTE FINANCING
TAMPA, Fla., Mar. 8 -- Global Imaging Systems, Inc. announced today that it
has completed its offering of $100 million aggregate principal amount of 10.75
percent senior subordinated notes due 2007. The notes, priced at par, were sold
in a private transaction.
Tom Johnson, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We elected to
hold this financing to $100 million in the face of the current bond market's
escalating interest rates. If the need for additional financing arises before
the capital markets turn more favorable, we will explore expanding our revolving
bank lines or other lower cost sources of funds." He said Global plans to use
the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to repay existing indebtedness.
The notes were offered for sale in private placements under exemptions from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The notes will not
be, and have not been, registered under the Securities Act and may not be
offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
This news release contains certain forward-looking statements, including
statements relating to opportunities in and performance of the imaging industry,
the timing, number and completion of proposed acquisitions by the company,
future product and service offerings, and future revenues projections. The
company's actual results could differ materially from those set forth in such
statements. Factors that might cause the company's results to differ materially
from the results described in this release are detailed in the company's
registration statement relating to its initial public offering filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
