Penn Virginia Resource Partners LP, which manages coal and natural resource properties, said Monday it closed its offering of 4.75 million units representing limited partner interests.
The Radnor, Pa.-based company said underwriters have a 30-day option to buy up to 712,500 additional common units to cover over-allotments.
Penn Virginia expects to use net proceeds to repay part of its borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
Lehman Brothers Inc. and UBS Investment Bank were joint book-running managers and representatives of the underwriters in connection with the offering. Wachovia Capital Markets was lead non-book running manager. RBC Capital Markets, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Inc. were co-managers.
Shares of Penn Virginia Resource Partners rose 39 cents to close at $27.82.
