Baker McKenzie has advised EquipmentShare.com Inc on its debut $640 million senior secured second lien notes offering, while Goldman Sachs led the syndicate of 12 underwriters. This was one of the largest first time high-yield bond offerings of the year.

Morgan, Mizuho, MUFG, SMBC Nikko, and Truist Securities acted as joint-book-running managers, and Regions Securities LLC and UBS Investment Bank acted as co-managers.
Concurrently with the bond offering, EquipmentShare.com Inc upsized its senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility with Capital One Bank to $3.0 billion.
The Baker McKenzie team was led by partners Marc Paul (Washington D.C.), Rob Mathews (London, UK) and Haden Henderson (London, UK), senior associates Adam Buehler (Miami, FL), Ben Bierwirth (London, UK) and Nicholas Brock (New York, NY), supported by associates Alexander Fields (New York, NY) and Tariq Akeel (Chicago, IL).
