LONG BEACH, Calif., June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- California Resources Corporation (NYSE: CRC) (the “Company”) announced today the pricing of its private offering of $550 million in aggregate principal amount of its 7.250% senior unsecured notes due 2035 (the “Notes”) at par. The Notes will be guaranteed by all of the Company’s existing subsidiaries that guarantee its revolving credit facility, its 8.250% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and its 7.000% senior notes due 2034, and certain future subsidiaries. The offering is expected to close on June 26, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $541 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with borrowings under its revolving credit facility and/or cash on hand to fund the redemption of all outstanding $550 million in aggregate principal amount of its 2029 Notes at a redemption price of 104.125% thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The redemption of the 2029 Notes is conditioned on the completion of the offering of the Notes. The offering of the Notes is not contingent upon the completion of such redemption.

The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any Notes, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of Notes in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. Additionally, this press release shall not constitute a notice of redemption under the indenture governing the 2029 Notes.
