Unisys's stock rockets toward best day in nearly 11 years after after detailing use of asset sale proceeds
Shares of Unisys Corp. rocketed 44% toward a 15-month high in active midday trading Thursday, after the information technology company announced a deal to sell its U.S. Federal business for $1.2 billion, to Science Applications International Corp. . The stock's gain, which is on track to be the biggest since it's record rally of 69% on April 16, 2009, was enough to make the stock the best performer on major U.S. exchanges. Chief Financial Officer Michael Thomson said on a conference call with analysts discussing the deal that $600 million of the proceeds will be applied to required contributions to defined-benefit pension plans over the next three years. He said that will reduce the unfunded pension deficit to about $860 million from $1.9 billion, and decrease the company's net debt leverage to 2.4 times from 4.2 times as of Sept. 30, 2019. "Our intended contribution of the net proceeds to the US pension plans will also effectively eliminate requirements to make cash contributions out of ongoing operations to those plans for the next three years and significantly accelerates our path to being free cash flow positive," Thomson said, according to a FactSet transcript. Unisys also said it plans to fully redeem the $440 million of senior secured notes outstanding. Over the past 12 months, Unisys shares have now gained 21.8%, while the S&P 500 has advanced 22.5%.
