Clearwater Analytics Bolsters Market Presence with New Secondary Stock Offering
BOISE, Idaho, March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – In a significant move within the financial SaaS sector, Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. (referred to as "Clearwater" or the "Company"), a pioneer in providing comprehensive investment management solutions, has declared the initiation of an underwritten secondary public offering. This substantial offering involves a total of 16,250,000 shares of Clearwater's Class A common stock, carrying a nominal value of $0.001 per share. Instead of benefiting the organization directly, this sale of Common Stock will be on behalf of select affiliates of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, collectively identified as the "Selling Stockholders."
The acclaimed Company has clarified that it will not retain any proceeds from the sale conducted by the Selling Stockholders. Sales may unfold in varied forms such as negotiated deals or at market prices, which could be either directly proportionate to the prevailing market prices or decided upon through negotiations. Adding to the Company's acclaim, the Common Stock finds itself proudly listed on the New York Stock Exchange symbolized as "CWAN."
For the projected offering, the esteemed J.P. Morgan is taking charge as the sole book-running manager and underwriter. Their specialized role makes them pivotal for facilitating the sale process and providing the necessary stability in the initial trading period of the offering.
This promising offering is pursuant to an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, formerly submitted to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 8, 2023. Potential investors and those currently holding an interest in the offering can anticipate a prospectus that will elucidate the terms of the offering. This document is shortly expected to be available through J.P. Morgan Securities LLC. Interested parties may obtain it directly from their offices at Edgewood, NY, via telephone communication, or by submitting an email request to [email protected]. Apart from direct contact, the SEC's official website at www.sec.gov stands as an alternative source for accessing relevant documents.
It should be noted that this announcement in no manner represents an offer to sell or an appeal for an offer to purchase these securities. There will be no sales of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such a proposal, solicitation, or sale would be contrary to registration or qualification under the securities laws of said jurisdiction. The issuance and sale of securities will be subject to adherence with the registration requisites as outlined in the Securities Act of 1933, as intelligently amended.
