WisdomTree, Inc. priced a $603.75 million private offering of convertible senior notes due 2031 and simultaneously executed exchanges of its 2026 and 2029 convertible notes, partly to fund its Atlantic House acquisition and refinance existing debt, resulting in an expected $105 million extinguishment loss.

WisdomTree, Inc. announced the pricing of a private Rule 144A offering of $525 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2031, with the initial purchasers fully exercising a $78.75 million greenshoe for a total of $603.75 million of notes expected to settle on March 30, 2026, generating approximately $591.2 million in net proceeds. The company intends to use about $200 million of the proceeds to fund the closing consideration for its previously announced acquisition of Atlantic House Holdings Limited, approximately $302.7 million to pay the cash consideration in exchange transactions for its 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2029, and any remaining proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potential repayment of existing convertible notes due 2026, 2029 and 2030. The new notes will mature on October 1, 2031, bear interest at 4.50% per year, be convertible at an initial price of approximately $21.58 per share (a 60% premium to the March 23, 2026 stock price), and include customary conversion, redemption, and investor put rights. Concurrently with the pricing, WisdomTree entered into privately negotiated exchanges of $75 million of its 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2026 for approximately 6.81 million shares and cash for accrued interest, and $275 million of its 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2029 for approximately $302.7 million in cash, approximately 4.19 million shares, and cash for accrued interest, and expects to recognize a one-time loss on extinguishment of approximately $105 million in connection with these transactions; the company also warns that hedge unwinds by exchanging noteholders may significantly affect trading in its common stock.
