The first release announced the tender offer's pricing terms, with the 2026 Notes priced at a fixed spread of 50 basis points over the 4.250% U.S. Treasury due 12/31/25 (Reference Yield 4.226%, Tender Offer Consideration $1,004.12b per $1,000 principal amount) and the 2027 Notes at 50 basis points over the 3.750% U.S. Treasury due 4/15/26 (Reference Yield 4.035%, Tender Offer Consideration $1,011.63 per $1,000 principal amount). The second release reported final results and the expiration of the tender offer. Holders validly tendered $36,687,000 of the 2026 Notes, out of $153,585,000 outstanding before the offer, and $163,843,000 of the 2027 Notes, out of $249,875,000 outstanding.
Settlement is expected on August 20, 2025, and is conditioned on completion of a concurrent public offering of senior notes, which the company expected to close on August 18, 2025. Accrued and unpaid interest will be paid in addition to the tender consideration.
