Beasley Broadcast Group Launches Exchange Offer, New Notes Offer, Tender Offer and Consent Solicitations Relating to Existing Notes. Beasley Broadcast Group is offering, to people who hold its current debt, the opportunity to exchange their existing debt for new debt with slightly better terms, as well as some shares of the company’s stock. The company is also giving an option for those debt holders to sell part of their debt for cash, though at a lower price than its original value. Beasley hopes this will help improve its financial situation by reducing its debt and extending the deadline for paying it off. Most of their debt holders are already on board with this plan.
