WisdomTree plans $300 million convertible note offering to fund debt and preferred buybacks
WisdomTree announced a private offering of $300 million of convertible senior notes due 2029, subject to market conditions. Proceeds are intended in part to repurchase about $104 million of its 5.75% convertible notes due 2028 and to help fund a roughly $144 million cash repurchase of its Series A Preferred Stock from ETFS Capital Limited. The preferred repurchase depends on the offering closing and the 2028 note repurchases, so the outcome and final terms are not yet set.
