Vista Outdoor told investors that it still has a “robust” acquisition pipeline. The company has raised its planned offering of senior notes by $50 million to $350 million, maturing in 2023 and bearing annual interest of 5.875 percent. The offering would help finance its acquisition of Jimmy Sykes and Camelbak Products (see our previous issue) and for general corporate purposes. Vista said it would keep the existing management of the two companies in place at their present headquarters. It has already started reviewing ways of expanding Camelbak's distribution among some of its major customers for shooting sports, such as Dick's Sporting Goods, Cabela's and Bass Pro.
