CHS Pursues More Debt Refinancing

After receiving commitments for $1.5 billion in new credit facilities, Franklin, Tenn.-based Community Health Systems and its subsidiary CHS/Community Health Systems announced their intent to offer $1 billion of senior notes.

The net proceeds of the offering will go toward the purchase of up to $850 million of CHS' $1.78 billion in outstanding 8.875 percent senior notes due 2015. Previously, the tender cap for this offering was $700 million.


The sale of the notes is expected to close around March 21 and is expected to pay related fees and expenses and be used toward "general corporate purposes."
