Exhibit 99

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. Announces

Pricing of $300 Million of Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2031

Milwaukee, Wis.–September 5, 2024–The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (NYSE: MTW) (“Manitowoc”) announced today that it has priced its previously announced private offering (the “Offering”) of $300 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured second lien notes due 2031 (the “Notes”). The Notes will have an interest rate of 9.250% per annum and are being issued at a price equal to 100.000% of their face value. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis, jointly and severally, by each of Manitowoc’s domestic subsidiaries that will continue to guarantee Manitowoc’s asset-based revolving credit facility that will among other things increase the commitments by $50 million to $325 million (as amended, the “Amended ABL Credit Facility”). The Offering is expected to close on September 19, 2024, subject to market and other conditions, including Manitowoc entering into the Amended ABL Credit Facility. There can be no assurance that the Offering or the Amended ABL Credit Facility will be completed on a timely basis, or at all.

Manitowoc expects its net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by Manitowoc, to be approximately $295.5 million. Manitowoc intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering, together with other cash on hand as necessary, to (i) redeem all of its outstanding 9.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2026 (the “Existing Notes”); and (ii) pay related fees and expenses.

The Notes will be sold to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A and outside the United States to certain non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S. The Notes and related guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), any state securities laws or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the Notes or any other securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. This press release is not an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell the Existing Notes and does not constitute a redemption notice for the Existing Notes.
