Borr Drilling Limited (BDRILL) Announces Launch of Initial Public Offering in the United States

Borr Drilling Limited (BDRILL) Announces Launch of Initial Public Offering in the United States

Hamilton, Bermuda - July 29, 2019 - Borr Drilling Limited (the "Company" or

"Borr Drilling") today announced that it has launched the initial public

offering in the United States (the "Offering") of 5,000,000 of its common

shares.

Borr Drilling will also grant the underwriters of the Offering a 30-day option

to purchase up to an additional 750,000 common shares at the initial public

offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company expects

the initial public offering price will be substantially similar to the trading

price for its shares on the Oslo Børs. The initial public offering price will be

determined based on the book building process and the closing price of our

shares on the Oslo Børs on the pricing date of the Offering. The Offering will

not be conducted as a rights offering and no repair offer will be made as the

existing shareholders of the Company do not have any pre-emptive rights.

Borr Drilling's common shares have been approved for listing on the New York

Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "BORR". Borr Drilling intends to use the

net proceeds received from the Offering for general corporate purposes, which

may include funding future mergers, acquisitions or investments in complementary

businesses, products or technologies; maintaining liquidity; repayment of

indebtedness; and funding working capital needs. Following listing on the New

York Stock Exchange, the common shares will continue to be listed under the

ticker "BDRILL" on the Oslo Børs.

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and DNB Markets, Inc. are acting as joint book-running

managers for the Offering. BTIG, LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Danske

Markets Inc. and Evercore Group L.L.C. are also acting as book-running managers

for the Offering.

The Offering will be made only by means of prospectus meeting the requirements

of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Copies of the

preliminary prospectus relating to the Offering, when available, may be obtained

from Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Prospectus Department, 200 West Street, New York,

NY 10282, telephone: 1-866-471-2526 or by emailing [email protected]

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, but has not yet become effective. These
