<p>LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uniti Group Inc. (the “Company,” “Uniti,” “we”, or “our”) (Nasdaq: UNIT) today announced that its subsidiaries, Uniti Services LLC (formerly Windstream Services, LLC) (“Uniti Services”), Uniti Fiber Holdings Inc., Uniti Group Finance 2019 Inc. and CSL Capital, LLC (together, the “Issuers”), have priced their offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2032 (the “Notes”). The offering was upsized by $500 million aggregate principal amount compared to the previously announced offering size of $500 million. The Notes will be issued at an issue price of 100.25%. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company, Uniti Group LLC, Uniti Services’ immediate parent, and each of Uniti Services’ restricted subsidiaries (other than the Issuers) that guarantees indebtedness under our senior secured credit facilities and existing notes (except initially those subsidiaries that require regulatory approval prior to guaranteeing the Notes (such entities, the “regulated subsidiaries”)).

</div><p>This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions with respect to the future and management’s current expectations, involve certain risks and uncertainties, and are not guarantees.

The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “projects,” “will,” “would,” “predicts” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

Future results may differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements that the Company makes. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, that could cause events and results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to the merger of Uniti and Windstream (the “Merger”); the risk that we fail to fully realize the potential benefits, expected synergies, efficiencies and cost savings from the Merger within the expected time period (if at all); our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to service our outstanding indebtedness and the covenants in our debt agreements, which could reduce funds available for business purposes and limit our operational flexibility; our ability to access debt and equity capital markets; competition and overbuilding in consumer service areas and general competition in business markets; continued loss of consumer households served and consumer high-speed internet customers; adverse impacts of inflation, higher interest rates, tariffs, trade restrictions, trade wars, federal government shutdown and the potential for economic slowdown on our employees, our business, the business of our consumers and other business partners and the global financial markets; risks related to various forms of regulation from the Federal Communications Commission, state regulatory commissions and other government entities and effects of unfavorable legal proceedings, government investigations, and complex and changing laws; changes in the U.S. tax law and other federal, state or local laws; our ability to retain our key management personnel; rapid changes in technology, which could affect our ability to compete; information technology system failures, network disruptions, and failure to protect, loss of, or unauthorized access to, or release of data; the possibility that we may experience equipment failures, network damages, natural disasters, cyber-attacks or terrorist attacks for which our insurance may not provide adequate coverage; the risk that we fail to fully realize the potential benefits of or have difficulty in integrating the companies we acquire; other risks inherent in the communications industry and in the ownership of network systems, including potential liability relating to environmental matters; and additional risks set forth in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of Uniti and its predecessor’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as well as Uniti’s predecessor’s registration statement on Form S-4 dated February 12, 2025. The discussion of such risks is not an indication that any such risks have occurred at the time of this filing. The Company does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
