- All-stock transaction at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.50 PSX
shares for each PSXP common unit
- Simplifies governance and corporate structure
- Transaction expected to close in the first quarter of 2022
Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) and Phillips 66 Partners (“PSXP” or the
“Partnership”) (NYSE: PSXP) announced today that they have entered
into a definitive agreement for Phillips 66 to acquire all of the
publicly held common units representing limited partner interests
in the Partnership not already owned by Phillips 66 and its
affiliates.
The agreement, expected to close in the first quarter of 2022,
provides for an all-stock transaction in which each outstanding
PSXP common unitholder would receive 0.50 shares of PSX common
stock for each PSXP common unit. The Partnership’s preferred units
would be converted into common units at a premium to the original
issuance price prior to exchange for Phillips 66 common stock.
“We are announcing an agreement to acquire all outstanding units
of Phillips 66 Partners,” said Greg Garland, Chairman and CEO of
Phillips 66. “We believe this acquisition will allow both PSX
shareholders and PSXP unitholders to participate in the value
creation of the combined entities, supported by the strong
financial position of Phillips 66.”
The transaction value of the units being acquired is
approximately $3.4 billion based on Oct. 26, 2021 market closing
prices of both companies. Upon closing, the Partnership will be a
wholly owned subsidiary of Phillips 66 and will no longer be a
publicly traded partnership. Phillips 66 Project Development Inc.,
a wholly owned subsidiary of Phillips 66 and the holder of a
majority of the outstanding common units of the Partnership, has
voted its units to approve the transaction.
Citi and BofA Securities, Inc. are acting as financial advisors
to Phillips 66, and Latham & Watkins LLP is acting as Phillips
66’s legal advisor.
The terms of the transaction were unanimously approved by the
board of directors of the general partner of Phillips 66 Partners
based on the unanimous approval and recommendation of its conflicts
committee, comprised entirely of independent directors. The
conflicts committee engaged Evercore as its financial advisor and
Vinson & Elkins L.L.P. as its legal advisor.
