01—Abstract

Summary

Summary of the 8-K filed June 26, 2026. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

VeriSign, Inc. disclosed in this Form 8-K that on June 18, 2026 it entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P.

Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. for a registered offering of $550 milliona aggregate principal amount of its 5.100% Senior Notes due 2031. The offering was registered under a Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-285483) and was expected to close on June 26, 2026. The company expects net proceeds of approximately $545 million after underwriters' discounts and estimated offering expenses.

VeriSign intends to use these proceeds, together with cash on hand, to redeem its $550 millionb aggregate principal amount of outstanding 4.750% Senior Notes due 2027. The transaction therefore appears to be a refinancing that replaces 2027 maturity debt with notes maturing in 2031, with the principal amount unchanged.

The notes will be issued under a base indenture dated June 8, 2021 with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, supplemented by a Third Supplemental Indenture to be dated June 26, 2026. The filing includes the underwriting agreement, the form of supplemental indenture and global note, and a legal opinion from Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP as exhibits.
