WisdomTree sold $475.0 million of 4.625% convertible senior notes due 2030 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers, with net proceeds of approximately $464 million. The notes can convert into common stock at an initial price of about $19.15 per share, so the offering could add up to about 35.96 million shares to the share count if holders convert, though the company may settle conversions in cash in whole or in part.
