Advanced Energy completes $1.15 billion offering of 0% convertible notes due 2031
Advanced Energy Industries completed a private offering of $1.15 billion in 0% convertible senior notes maturing May 15, 2031, and used part of the net proceeds of about $1,128.1 million to buy back $438.3 million of its 2.50% convertible notes due 2028 in exchange for cash and shares. The filing says capped call transactions are expected to reduce potential dilution to shareholders from conversions, up to a cap.
