Genesis Energy, L.P. (NYSE: GEL) today announced that it has closed a transaction to sell its soda ash manufacturing and related operations (the “Alkali Business”) to an indirect affiliate of WE Soda Ltd. Transaction highlights include:

  • The implied enterprise value of the Alkali Business is $1.425 billion, inclusive of working capital at closing;
  • The ORRI bonds, with approximately $390 million of remaining principal net of restricted cash, will stay in place and be an ongoing obligation of the Alkali Business; and
  • As a result, Genesis has received approximately $1.010 billion in cash, net of all adjustments and after the payment of anticipated transaction related fees and expenses

Grant Sims, CEO of Genesis Energy, said, “This transaction gives Genesis the financial flexibility to accelerate the process of simplifying our capital structure. With the sale of the Alkali Business, our primary focus will once again be on the midstream energy space and our industry leading businesses therein.

We anticipate using these cash proceeds to pay down our senior secured revolving credit facility, to permanently retire unsecured debt and to repurchase corporate convertible preferred equity securities, each in amounts yet to be finally determined. We believe this transaction gives us immediate financial flexibility to look at ways to further drive value for our unitholders, as well as everyone else in the capital structure.

The Alkali Business is world class, not only in terms of its physical assets but also, most importantly, its people. We wish everyone in the business the best in their future endeavors. It has been an honor and a privilege to work alongside each of you over the past seven plus years.”

Tax Note

This transaction could generate a tax gain for the holders of Genesis Energy, L.P.’s common units as of February 28, 2025 (the “Sale Date”). The tax impact on each common unitholder will vary based on their specific tax situation, including their individual ownership, and their holding period, of Genesis common units. This transaction will accelerate certain tax attributes currently embedded in each unit associated with the assets just sold. The partnership intends, to the extent it is able, to increase its distributions of Available Cash before Reserves to all common units over the coming quarters, which may offset a portion of any potential tax liability associated with this specific transaction. You may want to consult with a tax advisor to evaluate the tax implications for any units you owned as of the Sale Date.

We define Available Cash before Reserves as Adjusted EBITDA adjusted for certain items, the most significant of which in the relevant reporting periods have been the sum of maintenance capital utilized, interest expense, net, cash tax expense and cash distributions paid to our Class A convertible preferred unitholders.

Advisors

Citi served as exclusive financial advisor and Paul Hastings LLP served as legal counsel to Genesis.
