Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”) expects to hold a bank meeting on Thursday, July 10, 2014 to discuss a possible refinancing of the Company’s operating subsidiaries’ $175 million senior term loan (the “Existing Term Loan”), with a $200 million senior term loan syndication, proceeds from which are expected to be used to (i) payoff the Existing Term Loan, (ii) fund estimated transaction costs and (iii) fund cash on the balance sheet of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, to be used for general corporate purposes (which may include funding acquisitions from time to time). There can be no assurances that any such senior term loan syndication will be completed.
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, may contain certain statements about the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. The statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment and current expectations, plans, assumptions and beliefs about future events (in each case subject to change) of the Company’s senior management and management of its subsidiaries and involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which may be beyond the Company’s control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Without limitation, any statements preceded or followed by or that include the words “targets,” “plans,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “will,” “likely,” “may,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “positioned,” “strategy,” “future,” “potential,” “plan,” “forecast,” or words, phrases or terms of similar substance or the negative thereof, are forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements are discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in the company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as they may be updated in any future reports filed with the SEC. If one or more of these factors materialize, or if any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results, performance, or achievements may vary materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements included herein are made as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly such statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K, is furnished solely pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Consequently, it is not deemed filed for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. It may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act if such subsequent filing specifically references this Current Report on Form 8-K.
