Net proceeds from the offering would be used to fund a tender offer to buy its outstanding 6.875% senior unsecured notes due 2023. Matador plans to use the rest of the proceeds to redeem of the notes from the tender offer that remain outstanding after the offer expires, as well as for general working capital purposes.
