Xeris completes exchange of 2028 convertible notes, eliminates them from balance sheet
Xeris Biopharma Holdings finished privately negotiated exchanges and a separate conversion of its 8.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, leaving none outstanding as of July 15, 2026.
Xeris Biopharma Holdings, Inc. completed a set of privately negotiated exchange transactions on July 15, 2026, involving holders of its 8.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, transactions that had first been disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 11, 20261.
Under the deal, the exchanging noteholders traded about $23 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 notes for roughly 5.0 million shares of Xeris common stock plus about $23 million in cash1. The company funded the cash portion using liquidity on hand1, and the exchanged 2028 notes were immediately cancelled once the transactions closed1.
In a separate move the same day, a holder of $10.5 million in principal amount of the 2028 notes converted them into approximately 3.6 million shares of Xeris common stock1. After both the exchange transactions and this conversion, no 2028 notes remained outstanding1.
The newly issued shares were not registered under the Securities Act. The shares from the exchange transactions were issued in a private placement under the Section 4(a)(2) exemption, based in part on representations that each exchanging noteholder was an institutional accredited investor and a qualified institutional buyer under Rule 144A1. The shares issued in the conversion were also unregistered, relying instead on the Section 3(a)(9) exemption1.
The filing states that the report itself does not constitute an offer or solicitation to buy or sell securities in any jurisdiction where that would be unlawful1. The 8-K was signed on July 17, 2026 by Chief Financial Officer Steven M. Pieper.
