A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and several important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any such forward-looking statement. In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “potential,” “opportunities,” and other similar expressions and the negatives of such expressions. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these words. They also include statements regarding the Company’s intentions, beliefs, or current expectations concerning, among other things, the Offers and Consent Solicitations and the issuance of the New Notes,, and other information that is not historical information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the Company’s actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Although management believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Form 8-K, you are cautioned that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known by the Company and its expectations of the future, about which it cannot be certain. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: risks related to the New Notes; the ability of the Company to consummate the Offers and Consent Solicitations in a timely manner or at all; the Company’s ability to compete successfully in the markets in which it operates; fluctuations in commodity prices and the Company’s ability to pass on increased costs to its customers or hedge against such rising costs, and the impact of those increased prices on the Company’s volumes; the Company’s ability to maintain favorable arrangements and relationships with its suppliers; the Company’s ability to manage supply chain disruptions and cost increases related to inflation; the Company’s ability to manage its operations successfully; adverse changes in general economic conditions, including inflation and interest rates; any disruption to production at the Company’s manufacturing facilities; the Company’s ability to maintain access to its water sources; the impact of climate change on the Company’s business; the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property; the seasonal nature of the Company’s business and the effect of adverse weather conditions; the impact of national, regional, and global events, including those of a political, economic, business, and competitive nature, such as the Russia/Ukraine war or the Israel/Hamas conflict; the impact of a pandemic, such as COVID-19, related government actions, and the Company’s strategy in response thereto on its business; difficulties with integrating the businesses of Primo Water Corporation (“Primo Water”) and Triton Water Parent, Inc. (“BlueTriton”) and in realizing the expected benefits of such combination of such businesses (the “Business Combination”); the unfavorable outcome of legal proceedings that may be instituted against the parties to the Business Combination in connection with such transaction; the inability to capture all or part of the expected benefits of the strategic opportunities the Company pursues, including those related to the Business Combination, potential synergies related thereto, and the ability to integrate Primo


Water’s business and BlueTriton’s business successfully in the expected timeframe; potential liabilities that the Company may inherit and that are not known, probable, or estimable at this time; the inability to retain Primo Water or BlueTriton management, associates, or key personnel; the impact of future domestic and international industry trends on the Company and its future growth, business strategy, and objectives for future operations; the impact of the significant amount of the Company’s consolidated indebtedness, which could decrease business flexibility; the inability to refinance or restructure existing indebtedness obligations on favorable terms, or at all; the Company’s ability to meet its obligations under its debt agreements, and risks of further increases to the Company’s indebtedness; the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with the covenants and conditions under its debt agreements; impacts to the value of the collateral assets securing the Company’s indebtedness; fluctuations in interest rates, which could increase the Company’s borrowing costs; the possibility that claims, assessments, or liabilities were not discovered or identified in the course of performing due diligence investigations of the two businesses of Primo Water and BlueTriton; litigation and regulatory risks; and other factors discussed in more detail in the Offering Memorandum and our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As a result of these factors, the Company cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Form 8-K will prove to be accurate. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties that may substantially impact the Company’s business. Moreover, Primo Brands operates in a competitive and rapidly changing environment. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict the impact of all of these factors on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Furthermore, if any forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by Primo Brands or any other person that the Company will achieve its objectives, plans, or cost savings in any specified time frame or at all. In addition, even if its results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which the Company operates, are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K are made only as of the date of this Form 8-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Also reflects the amount of Consents (as defined below) validly delivered and not validly withdrawn.

In conjunction with the Offers, the Issuers are also soliciting (collectively, the “Consent Solicitations”) consents (collectively, the “Consents”) from Eligible Holders (as defined below) of the Existing Notes to (i) certain proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain of the default provisions, and certain other provisions contained in each indenture governing the applicable series of Existing Notes and (ii) with respect to each series of Existing Primo Notes, release the note guarantee of each guarantor of such series of Existing Primo Notes (the “Primo Guarantor Releases”).

The Offers and Consent Solicitations are being conducted upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a confidential offering memorandum and consent solicitation statement, dated January 27, 2025 (the “Offering Memorandum”). The amount of Tendered Notes and related Consents is expected to result in the satisfaction of the conditions that (i) no less than $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of each tranche of New Notes (or the euro-equivalent, in the case of the New Secured Euro Notes) shall be issued in exchange for a tranche of Existing Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and (ii) the requisite consents to the Proposed Amendments and the Primo Guarantor Releases have been obtained.

The Issuers also announced that they have elected to have an early settlement for the Tendered Notes accepted by the Issuers. Such early settlement is expected to occur on February 12, 2025 (the “Early Settlement Date”), subject to all the conditions to the applicable Offer having been satisfied or waived by the Issuers, including the condition that the Credit Facilities Transactions (as defined below) shall be consummated.


Substantially concurrently with the issuance of the New Notes on the Early Settlement Date, the Company expects to (i) repay any amounts outstanding, and terminate commitments, under the BlueTriton Issuer’s existing revolving credit facility, (ii) repay any amounts outstanding, and terminate commitments, under the Primo Issuer’s existing revolving credit facility, and (iii) enter into an amended credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) providing for, among other things, (x) a repricing of the Company’s existing term loan facility and (y) a new revolving credit facility, which will provide for revolving loans, swing line loans, and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $750.0 million and which will mature in February 2030 (the transactions referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), the “Credit Facilities Transactions,” and the Credit Facilities Transactions, together with the Offers and Consent Solicitations, collectively, the “Refinancing Transactions”). The Refinancing Transactions may not be consummated on the terms described in this press release or at all. The complete terms and conditions of the Refinancing Transactions are set forth in the Offering Memorandum.

The withdrawal deadline for the Offers and Consent Solicitations occurred at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 7, 2025 (the “Withdrawal Deadline”). As a result, and because the Withdrawal Deadline is not being extended by the Issuers, the Tendered Notes and related consents may no longer be withdrawn, except in limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law. Following the Withdrawal Deadline, the applicable Issuer, the guarantors of the Existing BlueTriton Notes, as applicable, and the applicable trustees under each indenture governing the applicable series of Existing Notes entered into supplemental indentures to give effect to the Proposed Amendments and the Primo Guarantor Releases. The Proposed Amendments and the Primo Guarantor Releases are expected to become operative upon the Early Settlement Date. As a result of the Proposed Amendments becoming operative on the Early Settlement Date, among other things, all of the shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, which are currently held by an affiliate of One Rock Capital Partners, LLC (“One Rock”), shall automatically convert into an equal number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and One Rock will no longer be subject to the limitation on voting no more than 49% of the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock outstanding, as described in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

Holders of Tendered Notes are eligible to receive (i) for each €1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Primo 2028 Notes validly tendered for exchange, €1,000 in aggregate principal amount of New Secured Euro Notes and a cash payment of €2.50, (ii) for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Primo 2029 Notes validly tendered for exchange, $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of New Secured Dollar Notes and a cash payment of $2.50, and (iii) for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing BlueTriton Notes validly tendered for exchange, $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of New Unsecured Notes and a cash payment of $2.50 (with respect to each series of Existing Notes, as applicable, the “Total Consideration”). In addition to the Total Consideration, the Issuers will pay in cash all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Notes accepted in the Offers from the applicable latest interest payment date for such series of Existing Notes to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.

Eligible Holders of Existing Notes who validly tender their Existing Notes and deliver their related consents after the Early Tender Date, and at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 25, 2025, unless extended by the Issuers (the “Expiration Date”), will be eligible to receive (i) for each €1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Primo 2028 Notes validly tendered for exchange, €970 in aggregate principal amount of New Secured Euro Notes, (ii) for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing Primo 2029 Notes validly tendered for exchange, $970 in aggregate principal amount of New Secured Dollar Notes, and (iii) for each $1,000 in aggregate principal amount of Existing BlueTriton Notes validly tendered for exchange, $970 in aggregate principal amount of New Unsecured Notes


(with respect to each series of Existing Notes, as applicable, the “Exchange Consideration”). If, at or prior to the Expiration Date, all conditions to the applicable Offer have been or are concurrently satisfied or waived by the Issuers, the Issuers may accept for exchange all Existing Notes validly tendered in such Offers after the Early Tender Date and at or prior to the Expiration Date (the date of such exchange, the “Final Settlement Date”). The Final Settlement Date, if any, will be promptly after the Expiration Date and is currently expected to occur on February 28, 2025, the third business day immediately following the Expiration Date. In addition to the Exchange Consideration payable in exchange for Existing Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date and prior to the Expiration Date, the Issuers will pay in cash all of the accrued and unpaid interest on any Existing Notes accepted in the Offers from the applicable latest interest payment date for such series of Existing Notes to, but not including, the Final Settlement Date. Eligible Holders who receive New Notes in exchange for Existing Notes on the Final Settlement Date will receive New Notes that will, if the Early Settlement Date has occurred, have an embedded entitlement to pre-issuance interest for the period from, and including, the Early Settlement Date to, but not including, the Final Settlement Date.
