After announcing the successful completion of its $350 million ATM offering on Friday, DryShips announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Ocean Rig UDW, intends to offer through a private placement approximately $500 million worth of Ocean Rig’s common shares in exchange for a 20% to 22% stake. The transaction has an extremely short time-line with the deal expected to close this month. The offering will be made to Norwegian private investors, and other qualified investors outside of the U.S. In addition there will be a concurrent private placement in the U.S. under 144A to qualified institutional buyers.
