Halozyme prices upsized $1.3 billion convertible notes offering due 2033
The company raised the deal from an original $1.05 billion and gave initial purchasers an option for $200 million more, with proceeds set to fund capped calls and repurchase older notes.
Halozyme Therapeutics announced on September 17, 2026 the pricing of $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.50% convertible senior notes due 2033.1 The deal grew from its original size, as the offering had previously been announced at $1.05 billion aggregate principal amount of notes.1 Halozyme also gave the initial purchasers a 13-day option to buy up to an additional $200 million aggregate principal amount of the notes.1 The notes were sold under Rule 144A, limited to qualified institutional buyers.1
The notes carry an initial conversion rate of 7.1509 shares per $1,000 in principal, equal to a conversion price near $139.84 per share, a premium of about 27.5% over the September 17, 2026 closing price of $109.68.1 They mature October 1, 2033 unless redeemed, repurchased, or converted earlier.1
Halozyme entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with one or more financial institutions1 to limit dilution. The cap price is set near $208.39 per share, a 90% premium over the September 17 closing price.1
Net proceeds are expected to be about $1.275 billion, or roughly $1.471 billion if the option is fully exercised.1 Halozyme plans to use about $162.5 million to pay for the capped call transactions1 and to repurchase approximately $151.7 million of its 2027 notes and $220.0 million of its 2028 notes, at total costs including accrued interest of about $217.0 million and $435.5 million respectively.1 The remainder is earmarked for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, and potential acquisitions.1 The offering is expected to close on September 22, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.1
