Herc Holdings Inc. saw a price increase of 8.84% as it reached a 5-day high following the announcement of a $1.2 billion bond offering.
The company priced $600 million in 5.750% and $600 million in 6.000% senior unsecured notes, which will be used to refinance existing debt. This strategic move is expected to enhance financial flexibility and reduce costs.
Market confidence in Herc Holdings' future growth prospects is reflected in the positive response to the bond issuance, which aligns with its recent acquisition of H&E Equipment Services, further solidifying its position in the North American market.
